Rose Marie
This is my entry for Mixed Media Monday’s challenge, “What was he or she thinking?”
Frumpinstell’s Knick Knack and Curio Emporium specialized in unique and unusual hand-made gift items. One evening when Mrs. Frimpinstell was working on the text for the monthly catalog, she mixed herself a drink of coffee and Irish Whiskey. Instead of adding their motto “Well Stocked and Tightly Packaged” to Rose Marie’s description, she typed in “Well Stacked and Nicely Packed”! Mrs. Frimpenstell did not notice the mistake at first, but when she did find it she felt that Rose Marie was these things, and more, so she left the description as is. What was she thinking? Everyone knows that you don’t mix coffee and Irish Whiskey, the coffee could have impaired her judgement!
This is another art doll that I have made using a paint brush, this one was actually our basting brush in the kitchen. I soaked it too long in the dish pan and all the bristles came out, “What was I thinking?”
Enjoy what you do, with or without a little Irish Whiskey! Christen
Hehe! This is so gorgeous AND cute. She is definitely well stacked and nicely packed.
OMG this is incredible.
Fantastic piece of art. Love them.
Oh, One of my favorites :D-LOVE it!!
There’s a phrase “making a silk purse out of a sow’s ear”, and it comes to mind when I look at this beautiful art doll you’ve made of a has-been kitchen brush! Beautiful!
Thanks for the great comments, I really had fun with this one. I guess that I have a latent sense of humor trying to work it’s way out of my Swedish head! C
very cute doll.
Christen, this is so amazing, I’m lost for words (well, almost, LOL). Rose Marie is gorgeous decked out in all those roses! Diane
Gorgeous piece of work!
