Reluctant Has Found A Home!

SOLD: "The Reluctant Messenger" 

I posted this whimsical messenger 

at Doll Town

yesterday early afternoon...

He is headed for his new home with Kate, 

in beautiful Pennsylvania!

My heartfelt thanks...

Dogwood in its Glory!

Our dogwood trees are cloaked in their spring finest...

here in South Jersey!

I took these photos today, just outside my office

(these pics are not enhanced or touched-up in any way)

Oh Glorious Spring!

Wishing you and those you love...

a Blessed Easter!

"le messager hesitant"... The Reluctant Messenger!

Well... my (not so) little misfit messenger 

is finally coming all together!

He stands 23 inches tall (without his top hat)!

He wears a waist-coat made from a very fun, nubby 

wool fabric remnant that I found at a resale shop.

Underneath is a vintage crochet lace vest... 

and he holds a small box 

with two vintage "special delivery" stamps affixed.

TO DO LIST:

paint and crackle his head and hands...

give him a proper gentleman's paper collar...

attach some old bone buttons down that vest...

and add some laces to his shoes.
