Thought I would take pix of the very first creations I made when I started experimenting with paper mache and crepe paper. I had found a bunch of vintage crepe paper at a charity garage sale event and decided to see what I could do with it. This was about 7 years ago. I wanted to make paper mache dolls and have the whole dress be composed of crepe paper and other vintage items. I really loved fashioning the dress and hats using techniques for working with crepe paper that I had read about in a vintage book. But, they never sold when I listed them on Ebay, and I realized they used a lot of crepe paper. It was going to be hard to find gift boxes for them too. They are pretty big. So that led me to my pixies eventually. There is one other that I couldn't take a pic of, because my mom has it. It has a bunny head, but otherwise is very similar to these. The lady on the bottom is a little bit damaged, as my kitty Tigger nibble on some of the petals- bad kitty! Would love to know what you think of them.
