DANFORTH, RALPHIE & AN AWARD

Before I do my Show & Tell for today I want to acknowledge this award from Carrie at Oak Rise Cottage. She gave me the award specifically for this blog. I haven't been doing this one for very long and am so honored that she gave me this award. 

Now, I'm suppose to give the award to at least seven people. When I started thinking of who I should give it to, I decided to see who had made comments on my Dolls blog. There just happened to be 7 comments on the first post, so I picked those 7. Only one little problems. One of those people was Carrie who just gave the award to me. So, Carrie, I will give you the award as well. Here are the other six people and here are the rules.

1. The winner can put the logo on her blog.

2. Link the person you received your award from.

3. Nominate at least 7 other blogs.

4. Put links of those blogs on yours.

5. Leave a message on the blogs of those you’ve nominated.

Dan Quayle was the Vice President when I made this little guy. That's where I came up with the name Danforth. Some of you may not know that Dan Quayle's name is Danforth. That brings up a political thing because I can't think of him without thinking how the press destroyed the man. Do you think they would have been so vicious if any and I mean any Democrat had stumbled on spelling the word potato? I shouldn't get off on that path.  I apologize. I had no intentions of doing that when I sat down to write this post. Soooo back to the doll. If you have been to my regular blog in the last couple of days you will see that I used this picture in the header. Click here to go there. 

Here is a picture of Danforth pulling Ralphie in his little wagon. If you have been reading my blog for a long time you may remember this doll as the two faced doll. One side has a smiling face and one side has a frowning face. The bonnet covers up the second face. If you would like to know more about Ralphie and see his other face, you can click here to go to that post.

I appreciate all the lovely comments I have received about my dolls. I had so much fun making them. Some have a hard time believing I made these dolls. I know how you feel. The first time I saw the doll our teacher had made, I thought "no way". You can't make a doll like that. But it really isn't hard when you have a good teacher who provides the greenware and shows you how to do it. Now I'm happy to share them with all of you. Have a great weekend.
