Welcome and thanks for dropping by! My name is Noelle Falvo. I live in upstate NY with my husband and our 2 beautiful boys. I come from a creative family and grew up surrounded by things crafted with clever hands. Though I majored in fine arts in college, I never pursued a career in it. I am a self taught doll maker and started making dolls and folk art about 10 years ago. Shortly after my first son was born I left the working world and became CEO of household operations. Along came my second lil' bundle and I never had time to sew anymore. I discovered ebay awile back and dusted off the sewing machine. Well, the boys are getting bigger and when I am not chasing them or picking up the trail of mess they leave in their wake, you can find me at my sewing machine.

I'm happiest when I am creating something new. If my hands are idle I am daydreaming about my next project. My boys give me great inspiration to create. There's nothing like the imagination of a child to tap into! You can also find my work at Pfatt Market Place along with many other talented artists and craftsmen. Grab a cup of tea, your favorite slippers and go shopping! You won't be disappointed and it's sure to bring you a smile. www.pfattmarketplace.com
