Gallery 4 - Doll and Bear Projects |

Between Benny's Second Looks Antiques and Furniture Refinishing sideline and my dabbling, we manage to keep busy! At the Rockville Covered Bridge Festival last Fall I found a lady who 'recycles' Teddy bears and outfits them with genuine vintage clothing.
I fell in love with the idea, and from Benny's baby clothes to his great grandmother's hand stitched dress when she was a small girl to his father's railway conductor's hat and vest I found a rich source for my own ideas and gifts! |
