I finally finished a doll. I've been quite the slacker this year with many things going on. Only 5 dolls this year. I hope in 2008, I'm a little more productive. :) This doll is hand-sculpted in polymer clay. Her eyes are artist created. Her wings are real Cicada wings plucked from the imported freeze-dried bug myself, her hair is hand-dyed Tibetan lamb hair (dyed by me), and her crown is also made by me with Swarovski crystals. She's painted with Genesis paints. She's 6" tall and she's in my private collection. :) She's the only doll of my own that I've ever kept. I hope you like her! I also have a new website under construction. Feel free to stop in and give me your opinions! hugs, Loretta

I wasn't quite satisfied with my fairy's dress so I peeled it off (mulberry paper) and remade it. I listed her on eBay tonight. click here for auction

As always, I appreciate your comments and critiques. I grow by learning from you all. :)

Hugs
Loretta

Exquisite!! You made the whole thing! I thought you were going to keep her for yourself? I do hope you have a reserve on her on ebay?

Thank you all for your comments. Heather, I was going to keep her but I decided to let her fly off to a new home. I'm very pleased with her. You know practice, practice and each doll I make I get a little better. She was lots of fun to make but no regrets about putting her on auction. She ends tonight. That's exciting! :)

Hugs!
Loretta

I like the new dress on her and she is beautiful. I think it is amazing that you make her out of polymer clay.
