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!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Well its well past 3pm and its all over, over here. Dinner cooked and served, mom and sis gone. I'm bloated and tired and Dan was last seen on the couch watching football.

Sleepy and very happy. Happy that our garden provided so much food for us, happy the food came out good (except the goat cheese cakes from Southern Living , but i didnt add the pepper stuff so my fault) , happy no squabbling, and mostly happy that i'm filled with joy knowing the people i love love me too and they are happy. Thats the most i ever want.

Here are some pics of our Thanksgiving.



 These are all flowers from my garden! so beautiful! they really made us all so happy!
me slaving away and making everything between the stove and lil toaster oven

The table, vintage dishes (we all got our quota of lead i guess), collard green salad, turnip and beet au gratin,salmon olive and cream cheese on spanish crackers,corn bread pudding,goat cheese cakes and of course meat and stuffing and rolls and gravy and cherry cobler. alot of food for the 4 of us and Kipp is gonna be so mad he missed this but we'll skype later and i'll tell him it was all terrible.  giggle
Wishing everyone the best possible today and everyday through everything

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. "
