The Grimm Triplets


 The Grimm Triplets 
were very beloved
by Mr. and Mrs. Grimm.
The pox came to town, 
late in the Fall of 1908, 
and claimed
so many children
 in their tiny sleepy town.
The Grimm family was devastated
 by the loss of the Triplets, 
along with so many children
 within their town

Each one of the triplets 
has been lovingly sculpted 
from Paper clay 
and made china doll style, 
with wired arms.
The dresses have lace over
a lining dress and has been lightly aged.
Each has a wee coffin pillow,
 I have hand-sewed trim 
along the edge.
They each hold a wee bouquet 
of vintage
paper millinery forget-me-nots.

Each Grimm child is 
290.00 
and comes signed and dated.
Insured travel expenses are 12.00 
in the continental US.
Layaway is available.

Edgar

Edgar is a special labor of love for me...
I have always been especially
 captured with his poem,
Annabelle Lee.
For years, I have wanted 
to capture him in my work.
I needed time, practice, and skill-building,
He probably has taken more time 
then he should have...
but my heart is held deep within him.

Edgar is 13 inches tall and sculpted from Papercaly with a soft body.
he hangs rather nicely.

Edgar is 300.00
and 12.00 insured shipping.
