Today I strung the three new paperclay doll bodies.... theirHead with busts, arms and legs were sculpted from paperclay over styrofoam and foil and painted with acrylics. I sewed and stuffed their fabric bodies and attached arms and legs. I drilled holes in the shoulders and strung the arms through using heavy button thread. Then I glue gunned the soft body into the paper clay bust, after i removed the styrofoam and foil. I still had an ounce of energy...so I wigged them using dyed mohair. They were supposed to be halloween dolls..but i feel like its too late...i dont know...maybe they will be a different theme..I'll see how it flows!

sweet. I ran across this on another site I visit. I wondered if you have ever heard of this. Looks so cool and apparently can be incorporated into dress designs. I gotta buy some. I will copy the link so you can see.
