Our Blogs 
In addition to everything else we do we also have "a zillion blogs" which we also write for.   Needless to say we do a lot of writing.  

Our blogs are as follows: 

Have you ever seen a doll you haven't loved? I haven't. It doesn't matter to me what the category is or what the doll is made of. It doesn't matter if they are beautiful or down right ugly. I love them all and I want them all. Best of all, I love creating them and then designing a pattern so you can create them. Please come visit my Linda's Blog often to read about my doll creations, see what Linda Walsh Originals and I up to, and learn a few things along the way.


If you love dolls and doll stories don't miss DOLLS Blog!  My blog is filled with stories of the handmade dolls and crafts I've made, my sewing and crafting experiences, dollie slideshows, what's happening at Linda Walsh Originals Dolls, and anything else that I might like to tell you. I promise it will be fun and you'll have a wonderful visit.

I have loved dolls, history, and the Victorian Era since I was little and can credit my grandmother for that. As a young girl she gave me a Godey’s Fashion print for August 1870 from my great, great Aunt Flossie. I was captivated by the dresses and became hooked. I just love to research everything and anything about the Victorian Era. I also love to design Victorian dolls. I hope you enjoy my Victorian Dolls, Victorian Traditions, The Victorian Era and Me blog.




What could be better than making a doll from scratch? Not much as far as I'm concerned.  If you love to create and hate to wait you'll love our Linda Walsh Originals Doll & Craft E-Patterns blog.

I just love handmade arts & crafts, artist blogs and craft blogs. Don't you? And, I want to write about all the wonderful art, hobby, craft, and handmade items blogs that are out there. So, I started this blog. If you have a small business, are a professional artist, or work in the crafts industry and you have a blog - I want to know about you. Or, if you just have a hobby or have a love of and passion for crafting and you have a blog then I want to know about you, too.




Tips For Crafters On The Web blog is my experience during the last year with setting up a small business website. I wish that when I was setting up my craft & design business that I had one source that I could go to for information. One source to at least point me in a direction. One source that could relate to my experience. One source with lists and tips, etc. This is my journal of the past year. I hope you find it helpful. I hope you find it to be your one source.




My Testing The Blogs Series and Helpful Blog Tips blog is a compilation of all the articles I have written for my "Linda's Blog" on the various blog service providers and tips for crafters creating blogs. My series is intended as a tool for other small business crafters on the web to determine which blog service provider is best suited to their needs and to provide them with some helpful blogging tips.

The Book & Crafts Review Corner

I just love books and craft kits. For the books I especially like books on crafts, craft making, dolls, doll making, sewing, handmade items, floral design, and history. I have a lot of doll and crafts books that I have bought over the years and I'm going to tell you about the ones I have. I'll be providing book reviews of the ones I like and tell you why I like them.

I also LOVE craft kits - especially punch needle, wool felting, and cross-stitch. So, I thought I'd tell you which kits I've bought over the years and show you the results when I've completed them.

Plus, I might surprise you from time to time and throw in a few other things along the way. So, grab a cup of tea and stay for awhile.




If you are a small business crafter and want to know why you should blog then read my Tips From The Blogging Queen blog.




If you think living with a few women is difficult try living with 1,796 dolls. It can be downright hazardous. They think they are human and even make demands. One demand was a blog of their own for stories about life in The Dollie Storage Room which is where they live. So, to keep the peace in our house I created this blog for my dolls. It will be filled with everything and anything concerning the dollies - doll stories, graphics, etc. The dollies are in charge so it should be interesting!
