These gals are awwwwwwwwwwwwesome, I am super happy with them. They already have their places on each end of the mantle in my office (just a mantle, no fireplace) They are displaying two of my favorite hats. Both hats were bought together at my favorite old (closed long ago) thrift shop, about 20 years ago.
The painted gal has a few minor nicks and is a little dirty, but really great condition.
The white gal looks like she has a layer of white and a layer of light tan painted over her original paint. I used a little nail polish remover to take off some of the paint, but I really think I'll end up leaving her like this, because I kinda like the look with some of the white paint worn off.
So it was a splurge for me, but turned out to be well worth it.
I have a serious case of envy for your collections, Carol. Ugh... :)
ReplyDeleteOh, they are gorgeous! I usually prefer 20s mannequin heads, but these ones are enough to convert me!
ReplyDeleteWow, those are quite beautiful and I love the hats. Makes me want to start my own collection!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your girls, they're beautiful! I know what you mean about splurging... they were worth it!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the cupies and vintage photo posts too!
