I was lucky to stumble upon a truly unique and cute shop! Variation makes some of the sweetest bead dolls I've seen. Wonderful colors and styles that bring a bit of nostalgia and whimsy to these little beings. Best of all they are her original design! I love that.
Wonderfully photographed as well. Giving each life and character.
I love the vintage feel to her studio. What a great keepsake these would make. Pack one up in some retro gift wrap and voila!
In addition to bead work, she also knits, crochets, embroiders, sews, dabbles in bookbinding, letterpress, metalsmithing, collage, and digital graphics and animation. She think the dolls will ultimately transition into jewelry (coming soon!). Hmmm.. now we know that Variation name has merit!
Here are some of my favorites from her shop. Click the picture to be taken to the item in her Etsy shop.
Like a little ballerina isn't she precious.

These two look like Snow Queens from the Nutcracker!
