so painting on my boots I’m really enjoying
These are my last Halloween boots …before we went away for a few days
I loved doing these
October I paid a visit to Snap and Chat …a wonderful Sasha convention …and I’m sorry to say ..I didn’t take any photographs…and I didn’t have enough painted boots …I’m making a mental note to self ….next year , April ..Newbury !
I am going to relax more ….and take photographs…but needless to say I was busy with the run up to it making stock and had a bit of a “ lightbulb “ moments with the boots
I’m spending longer and longer doing these now …but I am thoroughly enjoying the challenge and the creative process , and I’m getting finer detail , which opens up a a whole world of possibilities,
I did make a wobbler to sell …but fell in love with little Milo …so I won’t be selling him
…bought a little Rosie to wobble …and guess what …fell in love with her too …she has a tiny little black spot on her nose …so right now she has Oxy 10 on it ….but her hair is gorgeous…I may give her blue eyes though
Mom asked me for a shoe …or bootie …these remind me of the shoes an old school friend used to wear ..I will never forget the day he started school and he wore these suede shoe type boots …
Anyway I was inspired to make them for Shadow ..my newest baby of course I sold them and now need to make more ..but these are the Sasha size …and they also are available in baby / toddler size
Working like crazy to get customer commissions done
Amd I want to take some new designs with me next month at Sasha goes to the Races
Dead exited about that x
But I have added a couple of painted boots and shoes to my Etsy shop

I finished these 2 yesterday… and I am delighted !
I bloody loved doing these
When I’m repainting them I like to keep as much of the original face as possible and work from that
With Frida , I have to remove the lips and eyebrows and go from their .. but I like to keep them as much Sasha as possible ❤️
After years of really disliking the Sasha baby’s .. I’m really enjoying them now , I know a lot of people love them , but I found them really hard to dress and pose with their bent limbs and tuck necks …
I shall be sorry to see these 2 go
But I just may have bought another baby to turn into. Wobbler
And I can’t wait untill she arrives
Cora incoming … and I have plans 🤣🤣🤣
