Yvonne

Yvonne began as a really beat up dress form.  I disassembled her, then painted her in a birch wood pattern.  Next, I parted out a friend's Christmas tree and reassemble the branches into her skirt.  After adding a couple of strands of twinkling Christmas lights, Yvonne became a beautiful Manningkin.

Yvonne is now in Coalgate, OK.

Manning

I recently realized that I was painting Manningkins for so many people, but I did not have one to call my own. So now I have my very own Manningkin. Meet ...Manning.

He is definitely not available.

Blair

This is a child size Manningkin.  There is so much more that can be added to it to make

it more feminine or masculine.  It is ready to be personalize.

Polly

Renderings of Marilyn Monroe and Idina Menzel cover the front of Polly.  I could not get a good picture without the glare so the picture does not do the Manningkin justice.  On her back are notes to the song "Heart Breaker" by Pat Benetar.    Polly is available to a forever home.

Lilly

Lilly is vibrant and whimsical.

She is the result of donating a Manningkin

for a charity fundraiser.

Get ready Chicago, here she comes!

Destiny

 

So cool to be this young person.

  She is not only beautiful,

  she is multi-talented.

 

Bill

 

Bill is for the horse-lover in all of us. 

(He is available) 

Jules

"The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched.  They must be felt with the heart."

by Helen Keller

So many other love passages are scribbled on Jules.  There is still room to add your favorites!

Lucy

This was a fun project!  Lucy has already been to Las Vegas and is now in Texas.  I expect I will see her at October's An Affair Of The Heart in OKC.  I met the owners of Little Wittle Munkees at An Affair Of The Heart in February 2010.  They have the neatest line of "Dew Rags"; these are the most gorgeous things!  If you have little ones in need of some really cool moccasins (they are so cool) this is the place.

Check out Little Wittle Munkees and tell them you heard about them here just for fun! 

Jane

Groovy little chick, isn't she?  Jane is now in OKC with a woman who is in the fashion & textile industry.

Stevie

Available: Child size Manningkin
Stevie is the pink miniature of Tricia.  You can leave her as a spunky pink giraffe, or we can jazz her up!

Tricia

Available: Female Manningkin

A sophisticated giraffe print.  She is beautiful "as is", or she can be personizalized to your taste.

Kat

Available: child size Manningkin.

Gina

Gina was designed for my middle sister's new home, but never made it to her.  Instead, a  funny thing happened on the way to deliver Gina; she ended up settling in Ft. Worth's art district at a really cool store.  (so sorry my sister!).

Mary

 Mary is available.

Charm      Class

Val

Val belongs to a very hip chick that adores all things Marilyn Monroe.  If Marilyn said it, this chick knows it!

Lyla

 

Lyla belongs to Ashley in Norman, OK.

This gorgeous young woman cheers 

for the OKC Thunder basketball team, 

and she also models; check her out

Bridgett

I met a teenager at a Trunk show during the Christmas season who loved

the Manningkins & also loved the Ed Hardy look.

This Manningkin combines this teen's interests with the EH style.
