I have a new fascination with these little ladies.
Perhaps it is because they are getting increasingly difficult to find.
What seems like a broken and discarded child’s toy to most…
can be transformed into something beautiful…
An Angel
I found this one at one of my favorite little shops in Bothell, Washington. .. Art & Soul.
I promptly returned home and bid on a lot of these beauties. I won’t disclose my maximum bid but if you happen to start seeing them in my art you know I WON!
Wish me luck!
I just found a few myself! Probably not the same kind you are talking about but similar and they are so precious! Can't wait to see how all you use them. I love your work and get excited to see when you post!! Love, Shelley

I am always trying to buy them - but they've gotten so expensive this year!
"Hush, Hush, Sweet Charlotte" and "Psycho" were the two movies I saw when I was really too young to see them - and they both scared the bejesus out of me! LOL I still remember seeing Bette Davis holding that box and Joseph Cotton's head rolling out of it LOL.

Ohhh I love the frozen charlottes - I don't have any like this, however i do have two sets of the Jennifer Murphy frozen charlottes, which I am sure you have seen. I love the "glory" label to this... very very sweet<3

These are so beautiful. I had no idea they were so rare. Hope you win!

This is just lovely!
But I have to admit, I was attracted by the title, "Hush, Hush, Sweet Charlotte". That is one of my favorite old thriller movies!
They just don't make them like they used to.
Your blog is a DELIGHT. I LOVE it!
Cheers,
Heather

Beautiful work, Amada, as always!!

I have loved these little beauties for over a year now. Ever since going to Diana Frey's back in April 2009. I a getting ready to put one on a cuff that I have etched. Yours is so pretty. Charlene
