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!

Henry' s Last Picture on 2/24/2019

Henry had a massive seizure on Wed, another on Thurs and we brought him home last night from the animal hospital.   




Since he had been stabilizing and having many tests, the sad truth is the tumor on his adrenaline gland is not cushings, so without a biopsy, which is NO for a 12 1/2 yr old boston, we can only conclude its cancer and pressing on his cranial cord causing seizures.     He hasnt had one since thurs but his breathing is very labored and we are taking him to his loved vet on mon. to make posible arrangements to put him down in his own home.     Unless he has a seizure today (sun) when our vet is closed and the only option is the hospital.    NO more pics of him as all the testing look like he was tortured.

We only put him thru all this as the vets found his organs were in good shape, no diabetes, no kidney failure,no liver failure   nothing!!!!!  so tests for this and that to see if we could treat whatever it could be as his body was fine with the exception of arthritis. 


Henry had his seizure the night before we were to leave to Petersburg VA for Dan' s 47 year old cousin who horribly died of massive seizures and the complications from that.   sooooo Jesus  it was horrible, we couldn't take Henry but we wanted to know if we needed to put him down, so we could before the funeral, which we were driving to the next am.      Because he was stablized and the tests showed him in good organ and blood health, they wanted to try more tests and said he'd be safe there  and watched.     so we decided to try  and deal with the horrible death of Beth Ann. 

We havent slept in days and Henry is trying very hard, he is eating and he went outside and sat with Dan in the garden.       Watching him is hard but we wanted to give him a good day at home after all the trauma he's been thru and we would prefer to have him be put down at home.   He was discharged from the hospital with the labored breathing but they want it to stop by today.   its lunch time and its not stopped.   we dont know what today will bring but we hope he can make it one more day.

we are devastated and  i feel like some of me has died, seeing Dan and my son so hurt by this is more than i can bear.   Henry has been the light or our family's life.   The most special angel. The hurt is unbearable.      God Bless Him always and we will be together someday again.

2006-3/11/2019 end of an era my beloved angel Henry.

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. "
