Wanda is a doll that came to us as a request. The gentleman that order her said he could not find a doll out there anywhere that was blind and since his wife was blind he would like to have a doll that was. So we set out to work on it and this is how Wanda came to be.
Wanda
is dressed in a silk satin skirt and blouse, he said she was just a regular
person kind of casual and not very formal. We also gave her a silk chiffon shawl
and sachet. the sachet ties in back into a bow. Trimming the shawl is an antique
lace we found. And, to finish her off, her neck and hem is trimmed in a cream
border lace.
She
also needed a seeing eye doll so we were told that her dog was a yellow lab. The
first one we found was too small so we continued to look and finally found this
one which is just perfect. We did the research and found out how the harness
should look, and then made it. Actually Bob is very good at that kind of thing. She is also wearing a genuine Garnet necklace with a crystal
drop and crystal earrings. We were able to find just the right dark glasses for
her also. she wouldn't be complete without her cane, and Bob did a great job
putting it together.
We were so pleased to be ask to do this doll. Our specialty is one of a kind dolls and this one certainly fits. We hope this doll brings her new owners years or happiness. She is a beautiful doll and very special.
