Christy Kane with Eudora and Clara
It doesn't get much more gorgeous and unique than this week's Etsy Wednesday. I had the pleasure of meeting the extremely friendly Christy Kane at the NYC Comic Con last weekend when I spotted her incredible dolls from across the aisle.
At first glance, the handcrafted gals were all I could see and I was instantly drawn to them. Then after speaking with Ms. Kane and checking out the rest of her table, I realized how much more there is to her creations.
Christy is not just a dollmaker, she's also a writer and photographer. She places her dolls, each with their own special story, in antique settings and creates their life sized worlds with her imagination. She's published a book called "Tales of the Sisters Kane" and also created this beautiful short titled "Callalilly":
She offers beautiful t-shirts, bags, jewelry and of course the dolls in her Etsy shop, but I'm afraid you'll have to come back for the handmade ladies. Christy had them with her at Comic Con and she'll be traveling with them until the 16th. Until then, watch the short, check out her book and view the dolls on her site.

I love the dolls and adore the video. Definitely something I wouldn't have found without you, so thanks for bring it all to your blog. Art. And Daft as well.
My pleasure! I'm so glad you like them. I just wish I could show everyone the dolls in person. They're absolutely beautiful dolls. Even better knowing she works so hard to make them by hand.
