After all this time, New Nostalgic Folk Art

I am finally feeling almost as good as new. The flu is serious and I'm going to take better precautions and i hope you do too. My son in Japan says that over there they wear face masks and he has co workers who wear them if they are sick. I might adopt that practice. Anyway here is some new work i've finally finished or just had the energy to finally load up on my site or on Etsy (click on the button to the right or just search Carol Roll Nostalgic Folk Art) Old Toy Bear

A Little Spring Surprise

Lucky Ticket

Seafood Lovers Kitchen Witch/Angel

Vintage Easter Bunny

Icky Witch

It can only get better til it just cant

I've been so sick!!!!! What a way to start the year, i actually went to bed around 9 30 on new years and am still recovering. Next year i'm getting a flu shot for sure.

Havent had the energy or inclination to do a blog or do any work for that matter although i've tried.


I do have a lil tease tho, next month Tdipt Mercantile is doing something really sweet for the month of Feb. and hope you will check them out.

Not sure i will be updating my blog for a bit as i just am not at 100% yet. so stay tuned for more on Feb.

Happy New Year!

The last few weeks have been kinda hard over here and so i'm thinking the new year is going to definitely be better.

Without going into tiresome details, i will let on that my cold has gotten worse and i'm going to post a new piece and get back on the couch yahoo!

New year new work hoping new goodness for everyone.
