 ACCESSORIES - Pretty little accessories are elegant and feminine wardrobe essentials for "mademoiselle."  They are handmade by me, Lynda Ulmer, in a variety of sizes and designs.  I create 1:12th scale dollhouse miniature items, including shoes, fans, dressing screens and handbags.  These items are suitable for a doll to hold or to include in a room box.  Place them on a chair, bed or vanity table ... or in a shop or boutique.  I also make accessories for 6" to 22" dolls, to display with mignonette, antique, French or Ultimate Fashion dolls.

 
Over the years I have acquired a collection of old lace, kid leather gloves, fabric and beads, which are incorporated into my work.  I often visit antique shops and flea markets to find materials.  In an effort to ensure the individuality of each piece, I try to make them unique and varied.  Each is a reproduction created with a vintage look. 
 
DOLLS - My dolls are meticulously handcrafted in porcelain, then china painted with delicate detail and fired several times.  The costuming is also done by me, including the wigs, shoes and accessories.  
 
Clothing is made of fine silk, cotton, brocade or batiste, and is adorned with antique and cotton lace, handmade silk ribbon roses or bows, tiny beads, crystals and pearls.  The clothing is not removable.  Dolls range in size from 3-1/2" to 5-1/2".  They are made from a mold of my original sculpted head and torso, combined with commercially available molds for the arms and legs.  Each doll has its own unique personality and is truly a one-of-a-kind creation.
 
Attention to detail is very important, whether it is in the sculpting, painting, costuming  or accessorizing.  I take pride in the quality and detailed workmanship of my dolls and accessories.  With each new piece, I am continually learning and trying to improve as an artist.  Custom orders are welcome.
