I have listed a charity doll on Ebay. The entire profit from this auction will go to the Susan G. Komen foundation to fight breast cancer.

"Hope" is a sweet little jointed doll who stands at about 6 inches. She is dressed in a pretty pink dress, of course! I made it just for her. It's removable and she has matching undies. You can read more about her if you go to her auction link here:

Please help her raise money to fight this awful disease so that our little girls don't have to grow up and fear it.

Thank you for your participation!

I have this baby in a bunny suit up for sale on my website for only $59. That is a great price for a doll that is one of a kind. Her face will never be repeated because I never use molds.
If you would rather buy her from my blog, please write me at am803@aol.com. I have her set up on the website for paypal, but other payment methods are not out of the question.
About her:
She is 4 inches high to the tip of her bunny ears. She has hand painted eyes which were glossed for realism. I sprinkled a light layer of fairy dust on her because I simply love sparkles! She has detailed bunny feet pads. Her face was painted with fine acrylics and Genesis heat set paints, then sealed.
She is eagerly waiting to help you celebrate spring at your house!

"Tranquility" my first OOAK for 2011

"Tranquility" is finished! She is very aged looking,and intentionally primitive,especially her hands. I wanted her to look like a relic. She is removable from her base which is highlighted with an Austrian crystal chain. I often use these chains for my jewelry and decided that they would look perfect as an embellishment on this base.

My big decision is where to list her. I will list her either on Ebay, on the Fairy Society website, or on my own website. Since I make only one piece at a time and don't have my work reproduced, I can't keep a lot of inventory going on my website. So, I will think about it and let you know where to find her!

Watch for my next post about my birthday presents I wrapped for Gina, my sister, today!

A fall OOAK baby fairy, Tula

Tula is a tiny fall baby fairy. She comes in a lovely round box (like a small hat box) with some fantasy film fiber for a soft bed. Her hat was hand made from mulberry paper.

She is currently on Ebay at this link:

Her opening price is a low $25. Compare my price to a similar OOAK baby that just sold over the weekend for an opening price of $259 and you will see how generous my price is! (I think mine is much cuter, more realistic, and more "baby" too!).

Here is a tip for the day:
To make sure that your sculpt does not get dark while in the oven, tent it with aluminum foil. And, if you are series baking, cover the hands with tiny pieces of wet paper towels to keep them from getting darker than the rest of the body.

Thanks for stopping by and happy sculpting to you!

two new human OOAK dolls!

I've been busy! I listed the two dolls that you see in the photos in this post. The older doll is jointed at the arms and legs. Please read her auction. It includes "Interview With A Doll." I hope you enjoy it. The idea came to me out of the blue one day last week.
I think my dolls are much cuter and more endearing in person. My kids tell me I need a better camera. I can tell you one thing. I do not photo-shop my pictures. What you see is what you get!
I am working on an adult fairy. Every once in a while, I have to try my hand at a grown up. Babies and toddlers are deefinitely my niche, however.
I am still toying around with the idea of doing a tutorial showing my jointing technique. I just need to discipline myself to do it!
