Penny People - Ballerina
Description
Can you hear the hush?The crinolines brush?
Hold your breath on Opening Night.
The curtains raise
To the audience's praise.
Tonight, you belong in this light.
Want to remind someone how special they are? This little ballerina has practiced her twirls and made sure her tutu flares out just right. She's posed on a shiny 2007 penny, with her arms raised, ready for her picture.
THE MAKING OF PENNY PEOPLE
Our little friend is made entirely of embroidery floss, save for a tiny wire in each arm. I wrap the thread into a tiny ball for the head, leaving a tail that I glue to the torso (to become her neck & spinal column). She gets her costume one strand of floss at a time. Her skirt is formed over the tip of an empty mechanical pencil.
CAN YOU SPOT THESE DETAILS?
She has a thin, dark pink headband wrapped around her blonde bun.
Her bangs are curled (really!), and a curly tendril frames both sides of her face.
Her wee slippers lace up to her knees.
All Penny People come with a special glass dome & wooden base perfectly sized for them. They each measure about 1 inch in height. A Certificate of Authenticity signed by the artist accompanies each doll, with the poem written on the back.
Perfect for a gift, or start your own collection!
