Hello~So I'm running a bit behind..having issues with terrible indoor"natural" lighting and the editing bit always seems to take forever. I've been avoiding using lamps,preferring indirect natural lighting, but it may be time to invest in some tungstens and find a more efficient way to upload/show images that doesn't involve hiring someone else to do it :) Suggestions are most welcome!
These are the dolls that will be available inmy Etsy shop, Saturday July 17th at 10am Pacific Standard time. For info regarding pricing, shipping, and doll construction*, be sure to see my shop policies section of my Etsy shop! And thank you again for all of ideas for doll names~each of these dolls are named after some of your recent suggestions.
I will announce which doll the winner of the giveaway has chosen before these go up in my shop~
Alice, the winner of the doll giveaway, has chosen Sukie * as her prize!
* Some changes: I have recently switched to a stronger polymer clay along with using the highest quality European acrylic paints on the market. Also note that there is a bit more fraying ,crumpled tulle, visible hand stitching used in the dresses of these dolls. This is intentional and something you will probably see more of in future :)
