This week's Tuesday Talent introduces the joy that is HANDSHOUSE. The dolls are simply elegant, cool blues and beige's in plain dresses and pinafores with the odd hand knit thrown in,
HANDSHOUSE dolls I think started out as straightforward Tilda style dolls, beautifully dressed but not uncommon however they have been reworked and reworked until this talented lady has something very much of her own. HANDSHOUSE dolls are made by
hyoeun yang, a young lady from Korea which surprised me. My first thought on seeing them was France but it just goes to show, great things come from all over the world
hyoeun yang has a blog, its a nava blog and quite hard to get to and navigate, the best place to find pictures of these lovely ladies and gentlemen is on Pinterest. hyoeun yang has her own pages of her work and inspirations, as well as pages about her home. You get a great feel for her from these.
I just love her style, her colour palette and her choice of fabrics. The simplicity of her dresses belie the skill it takes to make them. Have a peep at her on Pinterest either as hyoeun yang or as HANDSHOUSE and enjoy her, as I do.
My warmest thoughts and winter wishes to you all.
Thank you for this post, Carol. Do you know if it is possible to buy her dolls?
ReplyDeleteI honestly don't know because most of the information about hyoeun yang is in Korean and I cannot follow the language. So sorry.
ReplyDeleteIs there anyway to buy this book?
ReplyDeleteAgain I am sorry I cannot read Korean so I cannot help!
