GHOST WHISPERER VIGNETTE
After nine months, my vignette is complete! I hope you'll enjoy seeing the finished version of my favorite TV show "Ghost Whisperer." I know I'm only one of thousands of "Ghost Whisperer" fans out there!
SPECIAL UPDATE: My "Brick by Brick" article featuring my "Ghost Whisperer Vignette" has been published in the November 2009 issue of Doll Crafter & Costuming Magazine.
As a way of showing what it took to create this vignette and to give you an idea of everything that's included, I created an item listing showing how each item became what it is now. The adult sculpts are 8" tall, the Ghost Child is 4-1/2" tall, and the measurement of the hand crafted room box is 18" wide X 13" deep X 15" tall.

Note: Most items were hand sculpted or hand crafted by the artist. However, in order to create original designs needed to complete the scene, an artist must sometimes use items that are store bought and then transformed into the original creations they become. In this vignette, examples of the technique of using store bought items include the wicker basket, the white ceramic vase, the ribbon roses, and the blue/white ceramic floor pot. For this reason, I have listed them in the Hand Crafted Originals section of the listing above.
