These are all on wood, antiqued and sealed with a notch in the back for hanging, though I think they also look cute on a bookshelf:
I've also worked on Christmas ornaments. Those will be up maybe in September, October - I'll be in the hospital for November and I want to make sure they are shipped out before then.
I've also been working on the side to make a little doll for myself. Christina of Du Buh Du Designs is so talented and creative and I've been drooling over her dolls. I still hope to catch one for myself, but until then I thought it would be fun to work with sculpey and make a small version of my own. Here it is after I baked it:

i'm a dollmaker and also drool over Christina's dolls. have you finished this one yet?
Not yet - still working on painting the face - I made her so small I'm having a devil of a time! LOL It'll take me quite a bit of practice before my dolls look decent.
She's looking pretty good Nicki~hang in there!! I should show you my very first doll which I still have and haven;t shown before I made it after seeing a craft show featuring Dame Darcy. I tried making her from memory. I kind of cringe when I look at her now~I was so proud of her at the the but I keep her in my studio as a reminder of how far I've progressed :) Happy dollmaking! (cute cat!)
