Little hands-
and here they are, stuffed up to the elbow and a coat of gesso. The next step is sanding. Also, 1 foot.
I am redesigning (or trying to) the foot for these dolls. I want a flat sole that will fit well (better then what I’ve been using) into shoes. I’m not there yet… that’s on the list for today.
I am making wig patterns for these dolls- that is why the felt and clips on head. And that’s my Moomin mug!
Fur for doll hair. I will be playing with hair dye again. 2 problems from last time- I missed some spots with the black dye so have odd white patches- I need to be more careful with that. Also, they have a strong chemical smell. I will try to rinse them better, more or else put some kind of conditioner on the furs.
I am so glad you liked the package…I wanted to send you something that made you smile as much as I have over the pictures…I love them….and I am sooo jealous over your moomin mug…my family has been a big fan of moomintroll since I was wee!
Those hands are perfectly perfect.
WHEN YOUR TRYING TO USE HUMAN HAIR DYE ON FUR FROM A LIGHT COLOR TO BLACK YOU NEED TO PUT A FILLER IN SO YOU WOULD USE A RED 1OZ WITH 2OZ OF BLACK THAT FILLS IN THE SPECTRUM FROM LIGHT TO DARK
ALSO WNEN USING HUMAN HAIR DYE USE A LITTLE LESS PEROXIDE IT WILL INTENSIFY THE COLOR THEN RINCE WITH VINEGAR AND WATER MIX (EQUAL AMMOUNTS ) AFTER WATER RUNS CLEAR
