Mannequin Heads & Hats at Eclectic Treasures in Baraboo, WI


 
Front, Back and Face Close-Up

Happy April Fool's Day

On March 20th, my Monitor went on the fritz, so Ray and I headed into Baraboo. To pick up a new one. When we pulled into the parking space in front of the Radio Shack, we saw a group of people going in. So we went across the street to Eclectic Treasures, where we found out that I sold one of the Mannequin Heads for $15.00. Shop owner said I should make some more. Since I also sold 1 at Baraboo Vintage back in August. I thought it would be good to have as my WIPP (Work In Progress Project) for this Month It will be the Marcia Garcia-Tello design of Mannequin Heads with my twist with putting a face on them.


I am going to finish the Infant size one that I have not finish from 2020 January's WIPP. I choose to do them in off white, because I thought they would sell the best. But, now I am thinking of adding other solid colors or multi-color shades to the heads.

I first started to make these to show off my hats that I made. And were surprised that they sold. As long as they sell I will make them.

My other WIPP for this year are coming along. Finished one panel and about 1/4 of another done of the Lace Tent. On the sweater I am about 2/3s done with the body. And I finished one hanging basket and working on another one.

If you are wondering I got a bigger monitor, a 27" one along with a Bluetooth Keyboard. I love them both.
