The Topsy Turvy doll is a doll that has a sad face at one side and a happy face at the other. Traditionally, they had a coloured face at one side and a white face at the other but these have fallen out of favour to be replaced with sad/happy face. Normally the sad doll [...]
A Prince among wood sprites? Surely he must be! Look he has a crown on!? I’ve put in place a self-imposed ban on making these sprites as they seem to be quickly taking over the house! Until I start making more again I’m just going to drip feed the existing ones to you! Available to [...]

I had tried my hand at making a mask with mache and Helen [...]
