Hello, I'm Wendy!

 I specialize in designing and crafting high-quality mohair doll wigs for your antique doll or antique reproduction dolls. I am a self taught doll wig artist and started creating my mohair doll wigs back in 1977.

 

My mother was a long time antique doll collector and she encouraged me to learn the art. She bought my first little shoebox of mohair from a doll market in London England and on a Sunday afternoon I made my first wig with my mother's help. My customers were also my teachers and instructed me on styles they needed and the colors they were looking for.

 

All of my wigs are handmade from the finest mohair.   Each wig has a hand sewn 100% cotton cloth cap and is custom made to fit your dolls head for a good fit.

I work on reproduction bisque doll heads so I can achieve the correct shape of a dolls head, never do I work on styrofoam balls.

​

Over many years I have created over 62 designs for Antique and reproduction doll collectors , doll studio's and private collectors.

My wigs are handmade which means each one is unique to your doll.

 

My wigs have been shown in Doll Reader, Doll Artisan Guild and Antique Doll Collector. I have also been featured in Grit Magazine and Ripley's Believe It or Not, with a drawing of myself holding one of my wig creations.

​

All mohair has different characteristics based on the particular goat. I primarily work with raw mohair grown in the United States , which I handwash and dye during the summer months. I also work with English mohair imported from England . This type of mohair creates my Original styles and Lady wig designs and some of my antique designs in smaller sizes.

When I am not washing mohair outside I am tending my large ornamental flower garden, which I created over 40 years ago. It is a hobby I love and it gives me a place to work out new ideas and get a little exercise from sitting all day in  my studio.
