All the World’s a Stage

This may be, perhaps, the most fun I’ve had with any project I’ve ever made…

From it’s tippy top--

--to it’s bitty bottom--

…this was just plain, old fun for me to make!

“All the World’s a Stage”, it says; a well-known phrase taken from the Bard himself…

…and these little sweeties, “merely players”, as the line goes on…

I think you all know, by now, that I have quite a little crush on these Frozen Charlotte dolls—whether whole or broken—even if it’s just a lovely little head—I love them all!

The little girls asked to  have the spotlight for a moment so you could see how unique each of them are…

…subtle differences in each one.  Each little dancer has her very own sparkly personality…

It’s hard not to sparkle when you’re wearing a crystal rhinestone tiara, after all!

All a little different--but this one, slightly more flawed and slightly less defined than the other two girls—is my favorite, I think.  She’s just perfect in my eyes…

All the world’s a stage…

…and I had so much fun with this one!  {Take a bow, girls!}

See you soon with something new.

  10. How completely darling is this...I love your creativity.
    Thank you so much for your lovely and encouraging words about my book...I am so glad you got a copy and are enjoying it..thank you so much.
    Do you want to hear something really funny...I have not even seen a copy yet! I have been waiting for my copies to arrive for weeks now..I am so tempted to go order myself one but I know as soon as I do that mine will come. It has been hard waiting when everyone else has a copy...kind of makes me nervous. But I will wait patiently...thank you my sweet encouraging friend...you have always been a blessing to me Hugs...and enjoy!
