Just added these as well to Etsy
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!

Love is Sweet!
or I Knew You Were Coming So......
this little imp would make a great Valentine gift or at any time you want to show your love for someone. She baked this cake and made this valentine just for you and with a bit of frosting on her hand, she's just made sure all is perfect for a party for two!
and speaking of party of 2 these two actually do love each other

ROAR
Love this little lion, he reminds me of the sweet old toys of my youth, before the mutants brats or monster things tho we did have monster toys but you know what i mean. and i'm not judging, well maybe a tad, times and tastes change so nothing gets stagnant i guess.
Anyway here is my little fella just listed on my etsy site

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. "
