Shirley

my friend gave me this girl 4 years ago ..thank you Ruth , Shirly is such a pretty doll ❤ i cam see why people fall in love with them I used artist quality pastels and blended them into her skin , then sealed her with MR Super Clear ..4 years on she is still holding her colour and hasnt faded

Poor girl

well partially prep'd ....a lomg ways to go before Florries got hands again her other hand is only slightly better #sleepimgelf #dollresoration #dollrepair
