Julia Peculiar's Fun Mixed Media Creations

Peculiar? Yes!
And also very creative, very colorful, and very, very cool!

Julia's handcrafted paper dolls, brooches & magnets are wonderful.
Her mixed media creations bring a touch of funky and a blast of fun!
Take a look at some of my faves~

This one is a bit "Tina Turner-esque," wouldn't you say? 

Romantic Victoriana!

Julia likes to make fanciful mermaids!
This one is articulated.

A bevy of mini butterfly shadowboxes!

This little gal is a sweet as sugar!

Darling Dolls, Hand-painted by A Little Vintage

Jennie is a talented seamstress who makes lovely art dolls

for her shop, which is called A Little Vintage.

She adds personality by hand-painting each sweet face!

Some have a wonderful retro flair from simpler times.

You must know that I'm partial to those eye glasses!

One of the things Jennie loves to do is to accept special orders from folks 

who mail her precious fabric that once belonged to a loved one.

What a perfect keepsake - dear memories sewn into a doll to cherish!

In addition to a variety of Frida Kahlo dolls, Jennie has made dolls 

of popular celebrities such as Prince, Freddie Mercury & David Bowie.

I got such a kick out of her Iris Apfel brooches!

Jennie's elaborate neckpieces are fantastic!
