they get here so quickly ! Sharing some beautiful hand painted porcelain half dolls that I just put in the shop this morning... this is what I used to make my pin for the Asheville Once Upon a Dream event.
Made from antique molds, these tiny treasures were created and hand painted by Carla Khouri. Imagine the hours and hours it took to clean, fire and paint ! The colors show much brighter than they are, they are really very delicate and pale shades of green, lavender, yellow, blue and PINK. Two fabulous Marie style and a beautiful Southern Belle.

I love half-dolls and have two. I have been wanting to make them into pin cushions and one day I will. Getting the bottom flat and firm with cardboard has been my problem.
I saw one in Prescott at an antique store for over $1,000. This particular antique store had a cabinet full of them. They were amazing to look at!

I love the beautiful half dolls. I used to look for the vintage ones to sell when I was an antique dealer. I have always loved them and these are so well done by Carla. Thank you for sharing them.
