Topsy Turvy


One day my son Jonno and his girlfriend were talking about toys and childhood and i asked her, Is there a toy that you did not have growing up that you wish you had? and she said a Cinderella doll. Right away i knew what i wanted to make. so fabric from my stash and my favourite store in the whole world is Spotlight where i bought the blue and decorated netting. The doll stand is an old wire lampshade that i covered in fabric. This was the perfect answer to keeping the doll upright without spoiling the hair and arms, as no part of the doll was supporting itself. The face and body were painted to look like wood. She loved it.
