Woodsey and His Bird! - New Snowman Woodcraft



Well they don't get any more jovial than "Woodsey and His Bird!"  You see Woodsey doesn't mind his fine feathered friends landing on his head or his arms - or for that matter anywhere on him that they like.  They're his friends and he would do anything for his friends.  Even to the point of being inconvenienced.



DI50LWOD - "Woodsey and His Bird!" is an 18" wood painted snowman with a unique body structure.   He has a painted and outlined face, painted wood carrot nose with snow on the tip,  painted and outlined body, and sponge painted and outlined tall hat.  He sports a painted wood tie around his neck and red wood cardinal with snow on him sits atop his wooden hat.  Woodsey also has a three tiered sponge painted pedestal with two square wood sections and one wood ball..

Designer - Friends



"Woodsey and His Bird" don't mind the cold and certainly don't mind a little snow.  After all, snow never hurt anyone.  Certainly not "Woodsey" and certainly not his bird.

Gary and His Brothers Lou, and Philip Are Going On A Great Snow Adventure!

"Gary" is just like his brother, Bud. He is about as happy-go-lucky a snowman as you'll ever find. He doesn't fret small problems. In fact, he doesn't fret the big problems either. Everything can be fixed in due course he feels. So, he's decided that he and his two younger brothers, Lou and Philip, should go on a great snow adventure. A field trip of sorts - only of a greater magnitude. He's not sure exactly where they'll go. They'll find out when they get there.



HD012BLWOD Gary is a 26” cloth snowman with a drawn and embroidered face with black bead eyes, orange felt nose, and blush on his cheeks. 


He is wearing his favorite wool outfit.  He has a large, floppy brown tweed wool stove top hat atop his head that is decorated with felt applique, black boots with criss-cross laces, and plaid socks for his legs.  His brown tweed wool pantaloons match his stove top hat and are gathered at the waist.  He is wearing his favorite tree appliqued sweater with gathered collar.  His long wool coat is embroider outlined and the lapels are appliqued with twin star decorations.

Designer-Reets Rags To Stitches



Gary knows that his younger brothers are a little afraid to go on a great snow adventure, but he's reassured them they will be fine.  What a wonderful time they will have. What a story they will have to tell. He just doesn't know what the adventure or story will be as of yet.  But, it will be a splendid adventure.

There is one "Gary" handmade doll available on myLinda Walsh Originals Handmade Dolls and Crafts website. Just CLICK HERE for his new handmade doll.


Just like his brother, Gary, Lou just loves and adventure and isn't as afraid of where they are going for their "Great Snow Adventure"  as their baby brother, Philip is.  Lou has been on Gary's adventures before and has always has a wonderful time.  Sometimes they get in a little trouble, but Gary always manages to talk his way out of it.

HD012CLWOD Lou is a 26” cloth snowman with a drawn and embroidered face with black bead eyes, orange felt nose, and blush on his cheeks. 



He is wearing his favorite wool outfit.  He has a large, floppy dark gray wool stove top hat atop his head that is decorated with felt applique, black boots with criss-cross laces, and plaid socks for his legs.  His dark gray wool pantaloons match his stove top hat and are gathered at the waist.  He is wearing his favorite tree appliqued red sweater with gathered collar.  His long light gray wool coat is embroider outlined and the lapels are appliqued with twin star decorations.

Designer-Reets Rags To Stitches



Lou is guessing that for this "Great Snow Adventure" they may be heading north.  Maybe some ice skating.  Maybe they'll get to ride snow mobiles.  Maybe do some skiing.  Or, even go tobogganing.  Whatever it is Lou is ready.

There is one "Lou" handmade doll available on myLinda Walsh Originals Handmade Dolls and Crafts website. Just CLICK HERE for his new handmade doll.


Philip just LOVES his older brothers, Bud, Gary, and Lou.  But, he's the baby of the family and is always a little nervous about his brother's adventures.   It's not that he doesn't want to go on Gary's "Great Snow Adventure" it's just that he likes to know where he's going before he goes.  

HD012DLWOD Philip is a 26” cloth snowman with a drawn and embroidered face with black bead eyes, orange felt nose, and blush on his cheeks. 



He is wearing his favorite wool outfit.  He has a large, floppy black and white check flannel stove top hat atop his head that is decorated with a cloth band, black boots with criss-cross laces, and plaid socks for his legs.  His black and white flannel pantaloons match his stove top hat and are gathered at the waist.  He is wearing his favorite tree appliqued blue sweater with gathered collar.  His long rose colored wool coat is embroider outlined and the lapels are appliqued with twin star decorations.

Designer-Reets Rags To Stitches


Philip is hoping to get Gary alone so he can ask him if he knows exactly where they are going this time. He loves being with his brother's, but he's not a strong as they all are and not as adventurous.  He'd rather be reading a book in the library or playing pool in the snow lodge. And, if he's going to go on an adventure he'd like to be prepared and have the right equipment.  Hopefully, Gary knows and will tell him.

Al - He's Practicing His Song For The St. Patrick's Day Party - NEW Snowman Doll



Al is a little bit unusual for a snowman.  You see, he thinks he's Irish.  He's constantly dressing in green, constantly singing, and constantly dancing a gig.  Sometimes he gets to laughing and dancing and carrying on so he gets himself all tied up in knots. Right now he's practicing his act for the St. Patrick's Day party.



DI186LWOD - Al is a 13" self-sitting felt cloth snowman with an embroidered and blushed face with black bead eyes and pipe cleaner nose. His arms and legs are tied in knots and with raffia and he has a green plaid hat with a raffia band to keep his head warm.  He has two large fringed matching green plaid scarves tied around his neck and knotted in the front.  His boots are very large and match his green plaid hat and scarves and are also tied with raffia.

Designer - Stitch N Glue

Abigail - Victorian Snowlady To The Core and Chester - Victorian Snowman To The Core



Abigail and Chester are an unusual pair of Victorians. They may happen to be snowmen (or should we say snowman and snowlady), but they are also Victorians to the core and gardeners to the core. You could say they are Victorian, snowpeople, and gardening lovers to the core.



Like a lot of Victorians they love their country cottages and love the ivy growing all over outside walls of their cottage homes. It grows in the spring, summer, winter, or fall. As a result they can be seen during any season attending to it. Since today was such a beautiful sunny day they decided to transplant a few new vines. The problem is that sometimes in doing so they get entangled in them



DI157LWOD -  "Abigail - Victorian Snowlady To The Core" is a 25" self-standing wood and felt cloth snowlady with an embroidered and blushed face with black bead eyes and carrot resin nose. She has wool roving hair and bangs and is wearing her favorite lined wool bonnet that is adorned with ivy.



Her favorite burgundy colored wool coat has teal fringed band along the bottom edge and the front edges.  It has cuffed sleeves and is teal fringed collar.  A matching fringed teal scarf is wrapped around her neck and matching teal fringed shawl is wrapped around her arms and shoulders.  She is carrying her favorite draw string lined purse in her left hand and ivy transplant in her right hand.  Ivy also adorns the bottom of her body.

Designer - Tenderberry Stitches



 "Abigail - Victorian Snowlady To The Core" just loves being in the garden, especially if Chester is helping her.  She loves her Victorian cottage house adorned with ivy and hopes her new ivy transplants will take.

There is one "Abigail - Victorian Snowlady To The Core" handmade doll available on my Linda Walsh Originals Handmade Dolls and Crafts website. Just CLICK HERE for her new handmade doll.



DI158LWOD -  "Chester - Victorian Snowman To The Core" is a 25" self-standing wood and felt cloth snowman with an embroidered and blushed face with black bead eyes and carrot resin nose. He has wool roving hair and bangs and is wearing his favorite lined wool derby hat that is adorned with ivy.  Ivy also adorns the bottom of his body.



He is also wearing his favorite navy and brown colored tweed wool coat.  It has cuffed sleeves and is gathered at the collar.  A burgundy scar with teal fringe edges fringed  is double wrapped around his neck.  He is carrying his favorite broom adorned with ivy to sweep the soil away from the walkways.

Designer - Tenderberry Stitches



 "Chester - Victorian Snowman To The Core" just loves being in the garden, too, especially if Abigail is there.  He loves his Victorian cottage home, but really loves it because Abigail does.  And, anything she loves - well, he loves it too.  Even the ivy which he often gets tangled up in.
