Dolly's Galore!




Wow what a fun day we had at Kelsey's Doll Demo Day yesterday. Such fun girls in the class, and what a legend Kelsey is. So knowledgeable, so patient, so TALENTED and so generous with her time and treasures. These are our finished products. The group pic on the far left and a close up of mine on the right. Kelsey also showed us all of her own dolls, plus a few she's bought along the way. I was in such awe, that my mouth was open the whole time, with drool coming out of it. What an amazing stash she has. I am so getting into these dolls and have to say that I am very keen to progress to larger dolls. And definitely leaning towards the more arty type dolls than the prettier type dolls.

But I have learnt that I am a very visual person and prefer to go to a class, than to try and nut my way through something like this on my own. Maybe this will change, as I get more confident with beading and sewing. But for now, I would like to continue to go to workshops and learn more. The sculpting of faces really intrigues me.

Hope everyone had a magnificent weekend. I've been absolutley buzzing since yesterday.

Big hugs

    OMG...they are so cool...makes me even sadder I had to call off coming to it - though the soccer trophy day was fun, and DS had a blast. Next time.

    I love the colours and character of your doll. What a creative group you belong to and how lucky you are to have Kelsey to teach aswell.

    Are you going to wear or display your dolly?
