Nostalgic Folk Art was born in 2004. I came up with Nostalgic Folk Art name for my paper mache figures because I love the older things that remind me of my childhood and of innocent times. They are figures of folks both childish and impish and I love vintage folk art so putting nostalgic with folk art was/is a perfect and fitting name for my lil figures and business. I feel so blessed and thankful to God for being able to make these little pieces and hope they make you smile.


Thank you for taking the time to visit!







And when your done visiting here, I'd love for you to check out my work on my etsy shop, www.etsy.com/shop/NostalgicFolkArt











The Best to you always!

Some of my favorite pieces offerred on Ebay

Pam from GoldiLoo Woodworks,http://goldieloowoodworksshop.blogspot.com/ has this really cute Buy American sign listed on ebay right now, she doesnt have it as her Blue Ribbon Launch piece but still I think this is such a cute piece of her's. Her game boards are really something else and have a wonderful aged look.



I love this lil angel baby made by Audrey of Bay Ray's Child http://b-r-child.blogspot.com/ This is her first paper clay doll and she is fantastic! Audrey is such an all around artist. everything she does is pretty darn great, whether her gardening or decorating (seriously check out her blog to see her house!)or sewing heck or even her dog paintings (I have one she made of Henry!)she puts a sweet personality in them.


Ok here's the other piece I love thats being offered, its by Patty from Dogpatch Primitives http://dogpatchprimitives.blogspot.com/ those kids are adorable and the pants on the lil boy well something about them just did it for me. too cute! love the ice cream bars too. Patty knows I'm a huge huge fan and you can see why. I dont know something about the way she ages her work, its not just "dirtied up" it meticuously aged here and there and her colors are faded in that old comforting way.



Well these are a couple of MY favorites and new pieces are being added here and there so check out the many more lovely prim and darling things the gals are offerring. Just type in Tdipt in the ebay search. So many different items to drool over!!!!

My First Written Review/Kinda like your first dollar, I treasure this dearly

"Carol Roll is a relative new-comer, creating folk art for four years, now. Her paper mache figures reflect significant talent. At first glance, her angels, people, mermaids, and animals may appear cute and dear. At closer look, they are sophisticated, with detailed, expressive faces, each unique. Roll's work is anything but mass produced. It's the real deal. "
