Sometimes things just don’t go quite right. 
This doll was one her way to being totally HIDEOUS. Her nose was way too big and I somehow managed to get blush all over it so she looked like she had the flu. Plus her eyes were on crooked 
So she got ruthlessly ripped apart. I was able to save the patches behind here eyes, though. Which saved me from repeating a lot of work. She was initially supposed to wear that curly wig to the left, but that only made things worse. I don’t know what I was expecting, but it made her look like a dumpy clown. Maybe I’ll save the wig in case I ever want to make a clown. It would have to been a creepy clown, though. Not a slasher type clown, just creepy.
But despite her sad beginnings “Maybelline” is looking much better now, even though she is still body-less.

I think you could take that orange wig and add some curly pop-pom buns on each side (top of the head) and you could have some pretty cute pigtails.

Beth I like the idea of the little knitted wigs. I wish I would have thought of that when I was making dolls for my own family. This little doll will come out great just like the other dolls you’ve made. Is this little doll going to New York also?

I guess that happens from time to time…. she’s looking very nice now though. I love her new hair!
