My 3 key girls who live in a land of new machines and their wind up mechanisms are outmoded.
You can see why they would be a bit sad the last of their kind and not knowing where they fit in this new world ;(
Amandine the blonde Neellie the reddish bown haired and Yasha the strawberry blonde.
Their Keys atop there heads were made from a mold. My first time creating molds from objects. It was a bit dicey lol
The keys are stone clay so I had a fair amount of sanding before they were painted. But I really liked how they turned out. I found the original Key at our Barn sale we have been having for the last month. Actually I found a whole stash of them and plan to make molds of them all so I will always have an impression of them ;)
The keys are a great find! I recently have been working with vintage prints and finally, finally have been able to do something with my grandma's botanicals that I could never throw out! The really funny thing is how ugly I thought they were when I was a kid because at that time they were out of style! Such a silly kid!
ReplyDeleteAnyhow, sorry to run off there when I really meant to say-
your girls and their story are fabulous!
All three of them are gorgeous!
ReplyDeletethe key was a fantastic idea.....reminds me of a crown from days gone past!
I have come here through Catherine Constance, she told me you have some dolls I may like a lot and she is totally right. I made a freak doll for a challenge over at Cloth and Clay dolls. I wasn't sure I would like it but I have to say now she is half finished I do love her and seeing your dolls has made it even worse for me lol!
