I'm Max Bailey, and I thank you for
visiting my auction.
ROSALIE
|
 |
|
According to my
grandmother, we
had fairies to thank for all things beautiful on the earth. From her imagination (and from mine), here is
Rosalie, the Red Rose Fairy.
|
 |
|
In
the spring, Rosalie flutters lightly through gardens like a butterfly, bending
gracefully over the delicate buds of the red rose bushes, touching each with
her rose-tipped wand to make them open. Blue-eyed and raven-haired, she is dressed all in teal blue, with a
cascade of roses, rosebuds, and leaves that flow down her body to her
toes. The golden three-leaf motif at her
neckline also encircles her wrists, and her colorful wings bear portraits of
her favorite flower.
|
 |
|
If
this year, your red roses have elegant, exquisite, and heavenly blooms that
sweetly perfume the air, it is very likely the enchanting Rosalie has paid your
garden a visit.
|
 |
|
Rosalie
is 12 ¼ inches tall, and her wings measure 8 inches across. She is made from 100% cotton fabric which is
sewn, stuffed, and completely hand-painted with acrylic paints. I quilted her wings and attached them
separately. She holds a wand made from
wire, with a rose at the tip that I created from ribbon.
|
 |
|
There
is a small loop in the back of Rosalie’s head, should you wish to hang her
up. She can also sit in a chair or on a
shelf, or stand with a doll stand.
(Chair and doll stand not included.)
She is signed and dated, and sealed with matte varnish for protection
and preservation.
|
 |
| Rosalie
is an original one-of-a-kind work of art, created from my own design and
pattern. |
 |
| What
buyers have said about my dolls: |
|
"One of
the most wonderful things I have found on Ebay!!! I just adore them!!!"
**********
|
"I
just purchased one of your works on Ebay. It was the Angel Cat doll and
Fish
Ornie. I am so thrilled with them. You are an amazing artist. I am an
antique
collector and your pieces remind of the old handpainted fabric dolls of
so long
ago. Your work is just as timeless and lovely as those antique dolls. I
love
your brush and color work. The expression on the Angel Cat makes me
smile every
time I look at him. You have made my Christmas brighter by showing me
there are
still some wonderful handmade things that exist in this world today."
