Hello everyone...

Thank you for your continued patronage and patience in this time when I have little to offer for sale... I finally got my new shipment of porcelain slip, and yes, it is the wonderful "Magnolia White" Ultra Chic porcelain that I find so appealing. I have done a pouring of 15 new heads this week, but will be continuing to pour until I get a good stock of heads to work with... So those of you who have been waiting for your orders... they are in the works now. In the coming months I hope to be offering heads you have not seen for some time... If you want to order heads, now is the time to do it, in many cases there are only one or two heads made each year, and as most of you know, the time I will be able to make dolls is limited.

My wigmaker is working hard to create some new wig styles and colors... the new "Mindy" wig is going to be spectacular. I have made large orders of wigs and Hand Glass paperweight eyes, so they are being made now. There will be one new color of eyes, and that is pale blue, an even lighter blue than the light blue. Hand Glass eye colors I am stocking are Hazel, light brown, olive green, turquoise, mauve, pale blue, light blue, blue/grey, French Navy, and a very few of the dark blue that are gorgeous but have not photographed well, and therefore they have not sold well since all my dolls and heads are sold by photos.. In the case of blue eyes they often appear brighter in photos than they look when you see them in front of you. I decided not to order grey eyes even though they are very historically correct for Bru dolls especially, I found they just did not sell very well.

I have added to the "Dolls for Sale" Gallery today, some of the dolls I consider to be my very best. As much as I want to keep them all, new dolls are coming up and I am practicing "non-attachment" so... these are now priced to sell and this is your opportunity to buy the best of the best at very affordable prices... all dolls are ONE OF A KIND.

The ONE OF A KIND silk shantung (in most cases) dresses with Vintage Tambour net overlay and fantastic under garments, with corsets, have been very well received and many are sold now, however a few remain and more will be offered in the comming months. Also smaller sizes are being made, so those of you who like to buy your heads and add your own bodies, I am working on acquiring more outfits to sell also.

Mary Lambeth costumes are always in high demand, and these also I continue to buy as many as possible, though there are few available as Mary is very limited in how many and how fast she can produce them.

Although Lady dolls are rarely offered, I do have quite a few molds for Lady dolls, such as the Smiling Bru Lady, Gaultier Lady, and Lady Margaret, as well a several parians, and I am going to pour a few of them.

Also Mechanical head and arm sets for the 14 inch Seeley mechanical bodies can be ordered for the H-doll, Long Face Jumeau, and Phenix bebe.

New doll Jullien Bebe will be offered soon, she goes on a 13 inch body to make up to be a 17 inch doll.

Please give me feedback on any suggestions you may have.

Warmest Regards, Emily Hart
