I love summer time! Just a small taste of what we can expect in the next couple of months...

A Work in Progress...

This year I'm excited to be participating in Art Dolls Only Wonderland Blog event.
I had started making Alice before I knew anything about it, so imagine how excited I was when I found it!
Anyway, here's what I've got so far...



Off with her head!!!

Alright alright, I made her a head. Her hair is looking a little sparse at the moment though...



I'm loving her so far!

New shop...what have I gotten myself into?!

After months of debating pros and cons of having three (yes, THREE) shops, I have decided to move my art dolls from CraftsbyCayleigh.etsy.com into a separate shop altogether, and possibly phase out CraftsbyCayleigh. So far I only have two dolls listed, but there will be many more to come!

I am hoping to reach more doll collectors by having a more specific shop...Fingers are crossed, anyway!

You can see my new shop at Daffidolls.etsy.com

Back to the Crafting Table!

I am FINALLY back at crafting after a month and a half without it (ok, so I still made some random stuff, but nothing of any quality). I moved to a new apartment last month, and the very last area to get set up was my craft area. But now it is all set up, and I must say, I LOVE it! I have way more space than I used to and am able to really spread myself out (much to my boyfriend's annoyance).


See all the space?! I love it.


Anyway, now that I have my craft area back, I am crafting like a crazy person. Here's my newest addition to my etsy shop. Her name is Daisy, and I think she pretty darn cute, though I say it myself.



Aaaand, here is what I am working on now:



Yep, she's Alice in Wonderland. Well, my interpretation of Alice, anyway. I have yet to make her head, but I have some good ideas. I'm pretty excited about this one, it's been awhile since I've made a full sized doll.
