I have sought to the deepest parts of me to decide what to do with my plaster doll, I finally settled on a thought.....shabby, bag lady, art doll. But what is that?
Well, I thought the best thing to do was to just start. A downsized version of Diane Keaton in "Annie" or a image of the unknown "Aunt". You know, the one that pinches cheeks and wears to bright red of lipstick!? I decided the latter will be the target. And baggy knee-hi stockings came to my mind.
What would be the right shoes for her? Something not to fancy but something not to plain. I don't think the idea of a slipper type shoe is working.....not in leather at least.
They aren't to bad when viewed from the side AND they will have a closure at the top of the shoe.....I guess the problem is....I made her foot with a hi-heel.
That's it! Tomorrow we will work on felt Mary Jane pumps. HA! C&G Design

Pretty interesting. Can't wait to see the final product.
Mary Janes should be a good shoe for dollie...
I agree with Skeeter...Mary Janes would be great. Speaking of Mary's...have you ever made a Mary Poppins doll? How cool and creative this all is. How long does it usually take you to make a doll? What else do you make?
Never can go wrong with Mary Jane's!!
Hi Dawn...Got much mud? We just laid down more planks today. Without them we would be sucked down out of sight. You amaze me. I wouldn't know where to begin with making doll shoes. Can't wait to see them! Hugs, Kathleen
