WEE FOLK FAMILY RAFFLE
If you’ve followed this blog for a while, you’ll know that I no longer sell my original work. But occasionally, I can be persuaded to make something for a special fundraiser. So, I’m thrilled to announce this rare opportunity to win a Wee Folk Family of 5. Tickets are $25 each and proceeds are supporting the newly renovated kindergarten classroom at the Waldorf School of Cape Cod (my children’s alma mater). Raffle tickets can be purchased here. The winner will be announced on Dec. 10th. Good Luck!

I really enjoyed all aspects of making this little family, from painting their faces, to embellishing their felt outfits, to sewing their wigs. After years of mass-producing fairies, it was so satisfying to put all my energy toward creating one special family. Different parts of the process were documented in videos, which you can watch near the end of this post.

It was fun setting up the winter scene and posing the dols for their family portrait. Rob photographed them outside in a light box, which helps defuse harsh shadows.

The following videos give a glimpse at how I made the Wee Folk Papa, Mama and children. Instructions and patterns for making the dolls and their outfits are in my how-to book, Felt Wee Folk.
