Welcome to photos of my first doll to go up on Ebay!
This lovely doll is a former Tiny Kitty Charity Luncheon from Tonner. I have redressed her to become The Snow Fairy. Instead of just auctioning the clothing, I usually auction the outfit, jewelry, hat, undies, shoes, stand and the doll! |

The Snow Fairy Up Close
I have always loved the beautiful images of The Snow Queen but my girl is sweet and loving so she became a Snow Fairy.

The gown
Her gown is made of white tulle ribbon strips for the skirt and crotchet lace for her bodice and sleeves. I have beaded the bodice and sleeves with tiny crystal beads and it has white satin ribbon ties to fasten it on. |

The Headdress
Feathers, more crystal beads, crotchet lace, a snowflake snood, and an white snowflake on her brow comprise her lovely headdress. |
The Wings
Instead of the big wings she would really need to support her body, I have chosen to give her smaller sheer wings with glitter and little silver colored snowflakes. (After all, fairies are magical!) |

The Stand
I have adorned her regular stand with a soft, beautiful white poinsettia for her to rest her little booted feet in. |
The Whole Package!
I decided that if I was going to sell my creations on Ebay that I would put together a whole ensemble, not just a dress and hat. I bought the dolls nude and completely redressed them "to the nines!" This ensemble includes: the headdress with snood, earrings, tiny pearl colored bead necklace and bracelet, the gown, the boots, undies, a lovely bead snowflake ornament , the stand and, of course, the doll! |

Fuchsia..my number one fairy!
Here is the first fairy I created. I was home sick and needed something to occupy my time so I removed the outfit from this High Drama Tiny Kitty and started making her a flower petal dress. Silk flowers, thread, feather wings, beads glue and a little imagination and there she was, my first little fairy. |

ButterRose Fairy
This is the 2nd fairy doll I created. I am sure she will be one of many girls I redress in rose petals! I gifted her to my sister. |

I forgot how much I liked ButterRose's color scheme. I think I will have to make another one! |
