Let's see how many tantalizing words I can come up with to describe a Winter Break. (For that you will just have to stay tuned).
Today was a lazy and cozy kind of day.
I worked on some dolls. This one in front is a birch Hitty carved by me from a Judy Brown blank. Her sealer is drying. I had a little mishap today when putting on the first coat... I painted her hair last week and it should have been more than dry, but when I painted on the first coat of sealer today, the hair ran like a melting popsicle. I worked very carefully on this doll as it is a special blank and I was heart broken and not a little bit sick to my stomach to see a black film running across her face. However, after a little doctoring, she is fine and I am not sure that I don't like her face even better with the tiny bit of patina the running hair left behind.
I think I might darken her lips just a tiny bit. They are such a pretty shape.
