Sculpt 8, polymer clay OOAK baby girl

 This tiny girl has  loads of character, lol.  I painted her with Genesis heat set paints, and I am really happy with the way her skin tone turned out.  I will never go back to blushing with chalk again.

Polymer clay OOAK baby

 I'm learning to sew and made her little onesie and skirt, attaching it to a crocheted bodice.

 Here whispy baby fine hair is mohair,and she has two tiny ponytails.  \

I added a few photos with my hand to show scale  She's about the size of my index finger.

 I made the crib for the last doll, out of plastic canvas.

Ooak babies

I had fun making this one!  She has the best hands and feet out of any of my sculpts so far, but her ears are weird, lol.

Sculpting my first mini baby out of polymer clay

Boo boo baby with burned head

I was so pleased with the way my first sculpt looked, and then I baked her.  She still looked good, for my first time, but I noticed her nostrils had closed during baking. I decided to try to poke them open, and the wee nose fell off.  I had to build the nose up again, and rebake, and when I did ,the head color changed to orange instead of the lovely strawberries and cream of the limbs.

Crocheted outfit for tiny 3 inch baby doll

I crocheted this tiny outfit for her, and she's cute, but she could have been so much better had I not messed about with her nose.  Lesson learned; I shall not mess about with tiny baked noses again, lol.

Her little hands and feet were so hard to do; I had to use a magnifying glass to see them.

First sculpt with hair

 When I first started reborning, my first reborn was so ugly I named him Frankie, short for Frankenstein's baby.  I rooted Frankie with Mac's (my standard poodle) hair, so wanted to give my first sculpt Mac's hair as well. I tried but the glue looked too messy so I pulled it off.  Her head's too tiny to think about rooting.

First polymer clay baby with needle felted bunny

 The little needle felted bunny is 4 inches long, and the littlepolymer doll is 3 inches long.  Her body and hat were made from the baby finger of a loofah glove.

Bunny doesn't want to share the teacup

I'm having fun learning how to sculpt, but it's very frustrating as well.  I'm working on a little elf child today.  I am planning to do it on a wire armature, with polymer clay head, feet, and hands. I have the head and feet done and was almost finished the hands when I ruined them by putting them on the armature.  I'll have to try again later.  I plan to needle felt a body around the wire, then crochet an elf outfit for him/her.

Mini nursery furniture in plastic canvas

Happy Easter everyone!

Plastic canvas nursery furniture for mini polymer bundled babies

I couldn't sleep last night, so I stayed up until 4 AM, stitching a tiny plastic canvas cradle. I 'm pleased with the way it turned out.

So now I have a little crib, a cradle, and a tiny baby buggy.

Plastic canvas dollhouse furniture, nursery

I plan to make up a bunch of these little polymer clay bundle babies and sell them in my Etsy store.

My dog Mac is resting in his crate.  He seems to be getting stronger, but he put his front paw down the wrong way today (folded under at the ankle).  He fixed it right away, but it concerns me.  I hope and pray he'll be OK.  He's being so good about crate rest; very cooperative.

Well, I hope everyone has a happy, blessed Easter.

I'm going to my Mom and Dad's for supper.  This will be the first time the dogs will be left behind.  Mac can't come out of his crate except to potty, and it wouldn't be fair to take Ben without Mac.  I'm only going to go for an hour or two, and my Mom is going to give me doggy bags for the dogs.  They'll like that.

I hope someone bought me a white chocolate bunny, lol.  I have a real craving.

Take care!
