For my first Made Monday I bring you someone who I know and consider a friend who makes the most beautiful art dolls. While I love art dolls I tend not to buy  a lot of them mostly because I feel that they need a grand display and such. Reality is I just don’t have the room for anything that needs household display. This is why I love Marjorie’s art dolls so much they are only 14cms tall and are made to be worn as brooches. This I think is absolutely BRILLIANT! I want one for every jacket I own. She uses high quality materials and awesome and unique beads. She has some that are brilliant displays of mixed textures fabric and feels and some that are very simple and subdued.

One of the things that I really like about Majorie is that she so often donates a portion of her proceeds to charity. For example 50% of all proceeds are going to Itsmeowornever a charity on Spayday in her Etsy shop. (24th February US time). Vist the Etsy For Animals Blog for more details on spayday.
