Thing-a-day Got Away

It's not so much that I haven't been making, it's that I haven't been keeping a very good record or making posts. As you see in the last post I did finish a doll over several days, with all the steps that entails.
Here's what else I've been doing.
I've been painting doll faces, and repairing some problems...

Beading dolls...
Finishing a commission...


which includes yesterday making a bunch of charms from polymer clay.


Today I'll be gilding and ageing these charms to be old gold, and adding the beads and wire to make some of them into the final touches for the commission. Also I'll be adding her hair. She will be delivered this afternoon.
Then it's back to Miss Tick and Elphaba.
The other things I've been doing are making lots of posts on my other Doll blog, and our taxes.

It's better to be making things than posting blogs anyway.
That said, I better get busy. :-)

The large one is roughly 18 inches high, and has a diameter of 22 inches.

Barbie Redux Doll

Here are some pictures, taken by my husband, of my Barbie Redux doll, "Winged Victory". The exhibit starts August 7th with a reception in the evening. I'll be taking along some of my lovely ginger bread cake. There will be a Barbie look alike dress up contest and a treasure hunt. Her head still moves. I figure you could really screw with someone's mind - every time they look at the statue she's looking in a different direction. Heh, heh, heh.
