i have to say its been a tough week, Archie is 10 will be 11 in Oct and has a serious disc problem in his back and neck. he is on pain meds and doing well with that but he has been falling and having trouble with his balance, he will never be better and will only get worse. Dan and i had that terrible decision to make. Through our broken hearts we decided, that he is doing well with the exception of worsening paralysis so we ordered him a wheel chair so he can walk without falling and run again if he doesnt take to it we know what we must do for him. Not sure i can ever have a dog again its to painful to see them suffer and to let them go. im hopeful he'll like the wheels and if he does maybe it'll be training for Dan and i to foster older pets with special needs who knows
soooooo not much work going on over here but i did manage these couple of figures
The older lady angel is sold but the vintage assemblage ornament is 30.00 contact me at nostalgicfolkart@gmail.com for more pics or if interested in purchasing
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!

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. "
