Bald elves

Thought i would post these chaps up............its been ages since i last made something. Not the most festive of colours but felt that all that sneaking around trying to gather treats for their winter stash.......muted colours would suit their needs best :O)

Have had these two waiting to be finished for awhile now and now that its cooler and with Christmas around the corner.......... I may well just give them a colourful candy cane or woolly hat and scarf ??????

Mind....I think what with the winter chills........I think its time I at least pop some hair on these two!

Mini monsters

All finished.......

I had a lot of fun with these although large Lily was my third attempt and im not all that happy with her, although I do like the others.

Unfortunatly the first Lily I made too big and the second got burnt in the oven. I think I should have maybe stepped away......but its all part of the learning curve.

Talking of learning ...Hermans jacket was the first mens/monsters I have made and is removable too! So I was chuffed about that and although I can see faults with it, the experience has taught me a lot.

When it came to mini 24th hermans jacket I was able to make his with a bit more ease and again its removable.

The Piccy challenge!

Julie of Bellabell dolls asked me to find the 4th pic from the 4th file on the comp......so here it is.....most def not as cute as Julies little Ellie!

This is a bald, rough around the edges12th scale Herman, body parts for 12th lily lying at 24th lilys feet....and last but not least ....24th herman who was waiting for me to put him together.

They are all finished now and was thrilled to have them appear in AIM magazine this month.

I going to pass along the Bella sinclair award and the forth pic challenge to:

Thought i would post some pics of past dolls. They are from the grandmother and grandchild series that I quite often find myself drawn back to from time to time.....i think its just such an emotional and magical bond.

Herman

Well heres my W.i.p of Herman. Hes had his first lick of paint but needs a few finishing touches :O)
I am working on a jacket for him at the moment.....I have only really made females before so its a bit of a challenge actually dressing a male....esp one with such 80s sized shoulders:O)
Anyway heres his pic......
