January Show &Tell

 
We're excited about 2013 at Tulsa Dolling Dames! Lots of new and fun things to look forward to this year!
 

Our January meeting had some beautiful Show&Tell, as always. These are Laurie's "Sprites."
 
 
And an anigurami, a gift from her sister.
 
 
Isn't he darling?
 
 
Jean's Steampunk driver, "Wenzel." 
 
 
Behind him is another of Jean's dolls. We'll see more of her next post.
 
 
Wenzel was an online class that Jean, Laurie, Jayne, & Shirley took together. Pictures of them hard at work are on the TDD Facebook page. (click here)
 
 
He is so delightful! Can't wait to see his "brothers."
 
 
 
Nark brought some creations from a workshop mini-class.
 
 
Glam up a popsicle stick or tongue-depresser.
 
 
Repurpose a tie and make some adorable "bait."
 
 
We have a couple other dolls to show. Check back!
