New Doll Pics!
Hey Everyone! I got some great news! Four dolls sold last Saturday! Isn't that awesome? I sold the green Doll (who's name I was dumb enough to not write down) and my Black Man (Oswald.. best name ever, right?) Bethany sold her Tabby Cat (I wasn't able to get a pic of it for you to see... it was awesome with a velvet dress) and the Angel. We dropped off five more dolls at Sharons this morning to fill in the void. (The Dolls may soon be available for online purchase at her webstore. I'll let you know when that happens if it does.)
Here's some pics! I'm sorry they're so horrid! They were taken in low light, so they came out very yellow. I tried to color correct them, but this was as good as they got. My poor camera ran out of batteries, too. Some more pics will be on their way, though! Sharon's son let me borrow his camera for a few shots.

Pianting and limbs finished!
Oh Hi guys! We're still chugging along with these dolls. I can finally say we have them all painted and their arms and legs are sewed on! You would think that doing more than one doll at a time (which is what we've always done before---we've never actually had a large event to prep for) would take less time, but it takes just as much time, and just as much effort and thought goes into each doll. I guess I could compare it to having sextuplets or something... Except these dolls don't need to be fed or changed or... anything like that. I always loved the painting part, because that's when the personalities can really show through. right now they look a *bit* odd, but you can get a better idea as to where they're going. I hope you approve!
Here is my palette! It's so high-tech. I bet you're all jealous.These two will actually be Jack and Jill...
...and Hansel with Gretel...
That may change when they get their hair on. I think this duo above look older than the first two. Who should be older? Jack and Jill or Hansel and Gretel?
This lady is so cool. I can't wait to see her out of her Birthday cloths!
And here's a close-up of the face. She did some distressing to it. I think It's perfect. Can't wait to see it in a goat-coat!
Another favorite of Bethany's. When she told me she was going to try one with ears, I'm ashamed to say I was skeptical. This will look so cool with hair... and check out those earrings of rusted wire! She does some pretty awesome work...
