Yes, You Guessed it and Introducing the Talented Ivy of Edera Jewlery


Yes, there are now 3 dolls with bodies. Each one waiting patiently for fancy outfits and wigs-thank you ladies!



Also, I want you to meet my friend Ivy of Edera Jewelry. You can find Ivy's blog site HERE.
And her Etsy site HERE.


Ivy's "Tudor Rose" Bracelet-One of my favourites!


Ivy's work is just divine-the detail is amazing. She combines lace making with weaving in fancy beads and semi precious gemstones. Each piece is one of a kind and they will blow your mind so check them out! What also makes them so special is that there is a story behind each piece-an inspiration in the form of a person or era or colour which I love. Plus, Ivy is a real sweetheart!

Ivy's "Dauphine" necklace inspired by Marie Antionette-LOVE!

Talent and patience runs in her family as her mother also is an amazing artist. She also have an Etsy shop where she sells her completely handmade silk flowers-each one hand dyed and handmade-each one unique and so lovely. She also makes gorgeous hats(I love the velvet ones!). Look for Stella Pesci's Esty site Here
Stella also is a pastry chef to name just one of the many other talents she is capable of. Pretty cool!


Stella's Gorgeous Banner


One of Stells divine flowers-this one is a gorgeous Poppy-Yes, I need this too! It reminds me of the gorgeous fields of Poppies in Olympia, Greece.

Yay for Ivy and Stella!

Stella, thanks so much about the dolls-they are still very much in the "Ancient Egyptian and Greek" stage". Now it is time for me to add my own Fairy Tale and other inspirations on them. I am also so glad you liked the little write up on your work and Ivy's. I love your work so much and Ivy's too. It will be a dream come true to own a piece from each of you one day! And yes, we must talk more!
