jennybee Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Every year my mom and I always make something for each other. Last year I made her a mini Christmas shoppe and she made me Mr. & Mrs. Robinson for my mini house. So this year I made mom a doll. She is only about a foot tall and has her favorite blankie (I knitted) and her little rabbit. Her body is wire but her head, hands and shoes are all clay. The only thing left I think is maybe eye lashes but I'm kinda skiddish to add them in fear I will mess up. lool DO you think she looks ok without them? Now I just have to give her a name...

Sherr Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 Great job Jenn! Careful....I thought I was only going to make one doll and now I always have one on the work table. You said you used clay, did you make it with aluminum foil inside or is it solid. I made a marionette about that size once and it was too heavy. Just curious.

whippet-gal Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I missed this topic before Christmas. I love the doll you made - she's a real character. What did your Mum say? Did you manage to make anything else? Great work Jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I can imagine if you didn't make one for your aunt she's going to want one. Tht little doll is just so winsome & lovable! (and no, I didn't think she needed eyelashes!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
