Frida …Trendon Sasha

 Sadly this poor girl had hair fall ..so she had to be wigged 

I was asked for a Frida Sasha …I wanted to capture the iconic look of Frida

Florrie

 Before these are her auction photos and her face , with the paint removed and her wig removed 

I decided to wash and condition her wig , and enhance her face with watercolours …the wig came up beautiful 

New kids in the house

 So exited to add Michael and Florrie to the fold ….Michael has the most beautiful face and hair …a little caving around the neck …nothing I can’t fix …Florrie …when I saw her auction pictures I knew I had to have her 

I had been to the most wonderful Sasha gathering in the next village, I met some wonderful people and collected Michael ..amd that’s when I saw her … a “Velvet” …I fell in love with her face , so I was hoping to transform this poor little waif into my own version of

Arnt the beautiful Velvet …this is Florrie after 

And I forgot …Frida ! 

Another rescue …poor girl had a dink on her face and a real bad hair cut , which is tragic as her hair is amazing , so I piled it up high for now and her curls cover it ..shes a real beauty  

Sewing and dolly mojo

 I’ve been totally out of whack since my hols …I really want to make things with my glass , but have several projects in the way before I can do this 

I need to sort out my work room ..a lot of dolls to be sold off too 

Lots of work to be done …doesn’t help that my hip has decided to give up the ghost …I’m in a lot of pain ..again and it’s affecting my mobility …still I’m still getting things done …slowly 

Hospital contacted me …x rays Monday to find out what’s going on with my swanky new hips 

And I settled down to sewing .. I don’t normally make fabric shoes …I’m not comfortable making them but the brief is a fabric shoe to go with an oriental outfit …so I did 

I used Lisa Pays Pinocchio shoe and resized it , ..perfect ..I’m quite pleased with it
