Dolls. Words.

Poppy and Netta

Here are my latest ladies...Poppy (the blond) and Netta, who will be in the (rather barren at moment) shop tomorrow.  I've had a few dolls in the works for a while now, but with being sick and school (as always) kicking my ass (in a good way!) they've been going slowly.  Poppy is fully poseable with glass eyes, a little over a foot, I'd say...and my second blond doll ever!

Her eyes are slightly different, but I think that gives her character.

I love her little ballet flats!

And her manicured nails.

Now Netta...a name I love, from Mavis Gallant story called "the Moslem Wife".

And tea-dyed lace for her skirt.

Now I'm off to bed to read "The Time Machine".  This week we read all sorts of Oscar Wilde, Walter Pater, Matthew Arnold.  I know it's a good class when my brain hurts at the end!
