The Deep Woods





Lettora, Fey of the Written Word

 
Lettora is a full cotton sculpt, pattern by the author. Her embroidery floss hair is hand-knotted. She wears a cotton dress trimmed in ribbon with a tulle underskirt, and her tights are painted. Her wings are wire-edged free-motion embroidery embellished with a button and ribbon. She carries the book that got her started on her reading journey - we won't say what it is, but it's about a certain young wizard . . . the book is made of cardstock and paperclay, and has a ribbon bookmark. Lettora, from the Italian lettore or "reader," stands eight inches tall on her grassy wooden base.


PRICE: Lettora has found her forever home with Stephanie.

Clarinda Works Her Magick

If ever anyone worked at her magick, it's Clarinda! She's been trying that "vanishing" spell for months. Then suddenly - "poof" - it works!
Clarinda is a 15" beauty modified from Mary Tressler's "All About Position" pattern. She's an all-over soft sculpt in cotton with synthetic hair. Her frilly underthings are lace, and her "boa"-trimmed robe and matching bead-trimmed slippers are hand-dyed acetate charmeuse. Her leopard-print upholstered ice cream parlor-style chair and pedestal table (with lighted "magick" wired by the artist) are handcrafted. All accessories, except for the candles and the actual crystal ball, are handmade by the artist: Sculpey ball stand; chalice with "wine"; inscribed candleholders; small cauldron with "burning" incense; plate with real herbs; spells from her "Book of Shadows"; wand embellished with a crystal.

Clarinda's expression is not an illusion. The pattern was modified so that her mouth really is open. And what exactly disappeared? We're not telling!
