Raven is done!

Raven has been in the works for awhile now. I was feeling a bit uninspired, and took a break. Now, she is complete, and I'm quite happy with how she turned out. She is made of wooden dowels and paperclay. Her hair was a bit tricky. It's made of a kind of furry yarn, and it's the first time I've used that. I like it. I just posted her to my Etsy shop today. She is the second in my Little Distaters collection. They are going to look adorable come Halloween.

New hair-do

Not doll related at all, but I just got my hair colored and cut. I'm pretty pleased with it. I've been styling with roller sets lately, and this new haircut has lots of layers for that. The layers aren't really showing in these pictures though.

Little Disasters!

Oh, I'm soooo excited! I just listed my Zya doll on Etsy.com. I've decided to make some darker, monstrous type dolls, that I'm fittingly calling "Little Disasters". She is the first. My youngest daughter loves her, and wants one. So, later this evening, I'll be starting her doll. Got the eyes in the oven right now. Probably could have timed that better. It's burning up in here.

I also finished another doll today, that I was making for a lady on my team (roller derby). She'll be giving it to her Aunt Karen. So, that was fun. And I like knowing that one of my dolls will reside in California, with the real Karen.

New blogger

This is my first ever blog. I'm so low tech. Today I'm working on my next doll (as I usually am). I'm excited because I just sold my very first doll on Etsy!!! Got to get her ready for shipping!!!
Too hot to sit here much longer and type. My next place will have air conditioning, I hope.
