When a customer had me personalize one for her Grandmother who was in a nursing home so that every time her Grandmother looked at the little angel she could read the little hang tag and remember how much she loved her and was thinking of her; the response from the customer regarding her Grandmother's reception of the gift solidified that aspect of what is offered here. |
Hi, my name is Connie and this is what I love to do! I hope you stopped by because you wanted to know a little more about the dolls and maybe a little about who designs and creates them. Although the designs are sometimes very labor intensive I love the task and the challenge. The gowns are free hand cut without patterns. I've never used a pattern for any of my gowns. They are machine and hand sewn as I see them in my mind and sometime they turn out even different from that! LOL I do repaints and enhancements to vintage porcelain faces. Many times I create my own wigs and wings. Much time and love goes into each doll to make it a one of a kind collectible. My design background was in floral design as I worked many holidays with a Corporate florist in the Chicago loop. These angels and dolls came about as a result of being unable to find a suitable Christmas Angel Tree Topper for my own holiday tree one year. Through this frustration and disappointment I was soon to find out I was not the only one that was finding this pursuit disappointing. There were others who wanted something different from the norm, something a little more style specific to finish off their unique holiday trees and decor; i.e. Hair colors, gown colors, skin colors, themes, etc. That lead to the decision to create my style of Angel Tree Toppers that are a little more tailored and specific in style and design. With them I hoped to offer the opportunity for customers to have a one of a kind Christmas Angel Tree topper that is perfect for them, that will compliment their decor and help them personalize their color scheme. That's how it all began! I enjoy finding fresh avenues of inspiration. I get a lot from scriptures from the Bible, but I am also inspired by themes, holidays, colors and events. I create what I hope will bring beauty, joy, peace and a positive faith filled inspiration for your home or office. That's what I strive to do!
