Wild Wilma Witch - HD204Etsy

Mon, 27 Jul 2009 10:03:43 -0400

$84.95
HD204LWOD Wild Wilma Witch is a 20" wood and cloth witch with a beautiful embroidered face. She has black bead eyes, lined and padded boots, oversleeves and leggings. She's wearing a fancy witches dress with a lined and embroidered cape. Her witches hat is lined and padded and she has lots and lots of wire ribbon bow decorations. Wild Wilma Witch is holding a straw broom in her hands.

Ladies and gentleman, look out for "Wild Wilma Witch!" She is quite the fashionable witch. Wild Wilma Witch also considers herself every bit as fashionable as some of Linda's Victorian "Ladies." She even thinks she's better than they are as none of them can fly. Okay, she's got them there! None of them have all the wonderful accessories she does. Okay, some do!

None of them are as gorgeous as she is. Okay, some are and some are much more beautiful than she is! None of them have a witches hat. Victorian ladies with a witches hat? I don't think so! None of them have fancy padded and lined boots like she does. Okay, that's an unfair comparison as none of the Victorian "Ladies" have feet. None of them have the sweetest face that she has. Or the nose she has. Or the pointed chin she has. Okay, another unfair comparison as the Victorian "Ladies" are all faceless and have painted wooden heads.

Come on, Wilma. Just admit you're unique and that's okay!

Pumpkin Head Baby Boy - HD214Etsy

Mon, 27 Jul 2009 09:54:19 -0400

$29.95
HD214LWOD Pumpkin Head Baby Boy is an 18" cloth pumpkin doll with an adorable embroidered face. His cloth body is made out of pumpkin colored material. As he gets older his body will fade and he'll become more like his mother's color. He's wearing the cutest jumper and has a kerchief tied around his neck. Decorative buttons are fastened to the straps of his jumper. His stem, or what he considers hair, is made of raffia.

Well, we have Mama's Pumpkin Head Baby Boy. Mama doesn't quite know what to name her precious little boy. He has the cutest dimples and she's inclined to call him Brad, but doesn't want her baby boy confused with someone else famous for his dimples. You know who we mean don't you? I'm sure you do. If you need a clue - he's my favorite actor. My husband knows who it is, but he'll never tell. So, Pumpkin Head Baby remains nameless at this time. Poor Pumpkin Head Baby. He's nameless. Maybe you can help Mama name him. He really is adorable and has on the cutest baby jumper you'd ever want to see. It fits right in with his "cuteness." Wouldn't you agree?

HD213LWOD Mama’s Pumpkin Head is a 21" cloth pumpkin doll with an adorable embroidered face. She has floss striped legs and a raffia stem. She also considers this to be her hair. Women! Or, should I say Pumpkins! You're better off not arguing with them. Mama is sporting bloomers, a doily collared print dress, and decorative bows.

Mama, herself, is no slouch and has quite the set of dimples on her head. With those dimples she could also be named Brad. That is, if she weren't female. Maybe "Bradolena." It's catchy, don't you think? I think you'd have to agree that she is an adorable mother. After all, how could you resist those dimples?

HD159 Help Me Tom 34” Cloth Turkey with Painted Face, Socks, Jumper, Shirt, and Quilted Feathers

"Help Me Tom - Turkey" is hoping that he'll find someone - anyone - to help him escape from the Thanksgiving holiday. It is his least favorite time of the year and the one where he likes to make himself scarce.

The problem with "Help Me Tom - Turkey" is that no one will help him escape his fate. Won't you? He promises that he will be forever in your debt. Well, if you won't help him escape - will you at least try to convince everyone that Thanksgiving dinner is the time to "EAT BEEF!"

HD198LWOD Benjamin Scarecrow is one of my favorite scarecrows and is a 22" wood and cloth scarecrow. He has a whimsically embroidered face with black bead eyes, a wood and cloth body, wooden legs, and cloth arms. His legs are covered with whimsical leggings and he's wearing socks. His shoes are whimsically lined and padded as is his whimsical hat. His shorts are whimsically cuffed and held up with suspenders. His shirt is whimsically cuffed. He has whimsical under sleeves covering his arms, raffia, ties, button decorations, and a fringed bow. His hair is made of raffia and he has a whimsical amount of raffia decorating him.

It's time for Benjamin Scarecrow. He's our last scarecrow and a whimsical scarecrow to boot. No one can look at Benjamin and not fall in love with his whimsical nature, his whimsical decorations, his whimsical shoes, his whimsical hands, his whimsical legs, his whimsical arms, his whimsical broom, his whimsical hat, his whimsical face, and his whimsical clothes.

He's just whimsically delightful all around. Why even the raffia that abundantly surrounds and decorates him is whimsical. All in all, he's just plain whimsical. You can't help but fall whimsically in love with him. I know I did.

His body is made of cloth and his hands and feet are made of raffia. He sports green checkered pants with suspenders, which he absolutely loves.

Neither "What's Wrong, Andy" nor his wife, "What's Wrong, Annie" knows what's wrong. Something is, but they just can't put their fingers (or should be say straw) on it.Their puzzlement is clearly reflected in their embroidered faces. They just wish they knew. Maybe if they stop thinking about it, it will become apparent.

Sun, 26 Jul 2009 12:08:46 -0400

$34.95
HD199LWOD What’s Wrong Annie is a 19” primitive Annie Scarecrow with a quizzically embroidered face. She has a cloth body and raffia for her hands and feet. Her rugged colored fall dress suits her just fine. She also has a full head of curly, flaming red raggedy hair which cannot be controlled under her floppy bonnet.

What's Wrong, Annie doesn't know anymore than her husband does what's wrong. She thinks that she should know. She is a female, after all, and females usually have a sixth sense. But, her sixth sense is not helping her today. She just knows something is wrong. Her instincts tells her that's so. And, she always trusts her instincts. What's Wrong, Annie's apron is tattered and patched, but that doesn't bother her at all. What bothers is is not knowing what's wrong. She is also made from a Homespun Happenings pattern.

He's hoping that he will have a good hunting season so he can provide for his family through the long, cold winter.

William has decided that he will bring a HUGE turkey home to his wife, Mary Brewster, for Thanksgiving. She'd be thrilled with that. She hasn't been so happy with him lately as he hasn't been able to find a "teacher" for their children. He will though. He's got his mind set on it.

She's concerned about her children's education and wishes that her husband, William would find a teacher for the children. He hasn't been unable to do so as of yet and she thinks he thinks she's unhappy with him. It's not that Mary Brewster is unhappy with William - she's just concerned about her inability to spend more time educating her children. Hopefully, William will find a teacher soon.

Well, here we have Mrs. Jack O Lantern! She is the wife of a truly unique pair of scarecrows. As you can see from her picture and that of her husband, they pride themselves on working. They are very, very muscular. And they didn't get that way from being couch potatoes. Their arms, they're legs, and those BIG HUGE hands. No, sir! They have muscles, muscles and more muscles, everywhere. Plus, those BIG HUGE ambidextrous hands. That's right. They both are ambidextrous. Very unusual indeed! And, because of it there isn't any weight they can't lift.

Mr. Jack O Lantern doesn't want to tell his wife but he gets a little embarrassed going with her to the gym. He hates to admit it but she can bench press more than he can. He doesn't let her know. He'd be mortified if all his gym buddies knew. Why, they'd laugh him right out of the gym. So, he spends a lot of time on the treadmill while his wife is lifting weights. Then, when she's on the stairmaster he goes and works out with the free weights at the far corner of the gym.

Don't they make the cutest couple. Wouldn't you like to compete against them in a bench pressing contest? I know I wouldn't. For sure, they would win.

Sweetpea is an adorable raggedy and she knows it. Don't let that sweet face fool you. She can be a "trickster" and just loves to play practical jokes on everyone.

Sweetpea is forever playing practical jokes on the rest of her "dollie" friends, especially the boys. Her problem is that they know how to retaliate - and they do. So she scours the "jokester" books in the library and searches the internet to try and come up with something else to trick the boys with. She might be "Sweetpea", but she is anything but when it comes to "practical jokes."

Kitty Capshaw sometimes feels out of place with the rest of her "raggedy" friends as she thinks she was born in the wrong era. She just loves "Victorians" and always wanted to own a Victorian dress. The closest she can come to "Victorian" is her crocheted collar.

If Kitty Capshaw had her way she'd be transported back to the Victorian era in a time machine. She just adores the Victorian period and adores the Victorian dresses. She's not to sure that she likes the Victorian's views on women and their rights, but she thinks she could handle that as long as she got to wear those dresses. I don't think so! She's way too independent.

DI194LWOD Apple Susie – 26” Primitive Doll

Apple Susie was the "apple" of her father's eye which is why her name is "Apple Susie." "Apple" from her father's nickname and "Susie" from her maternal grandmother Susie.

She is the sweetest of "raggedies" and loves to play with her other "raggedy" friends. She is so sweet that you would be hard pressed to find any other "dollie" that didn't like her.

Apple Susie is a Raggedy with an embroidered face, button eyes, raggedy red hair, bloomers, two tone dress and red striped boots. She is primitive stained throughout.

Apple Susie can spend the day just having tea with her other "dollie" friends, reading a book, going to the library, or playing with her own "Raggedy Ann & Raggedy Andy" dolls. They're her favorites and she considers them the "apples" of her eye. Now I wonder why that is?
