Prototype Purdey~hair in progress

How would you like a little peek of Purdey today?

Her custom outfits arrived and I could not resist but to play!

She is shown in just one of her outfits and hand made elephant toy...SO cute and well made by Laurie Duncan of Fancy Pants and Flounces.

I hope to have her hair rooted by bedtime tonight.  I will then put her away for the holiday weekend.

Come Monday, I will do some more matting on her forehead bring in the fine hairs around her face, then she will need her eyes set and brows and lashes along with final glosses.  

Artists, at last count, there were just 3 blank Purdey's available.  She's a GREAT FBS baby...don't miss out on her!

Contact Lilianne Breedveld~Deres for a blank kit of Purdey.

My goal for this prototype of Purdey is to have her on eBay the first week of December (probably around the 6th or so by the time I do photography, video and listing).

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! 

Poke, poke, poke...

Just a quick update on the progress of Purdey...

I believe I finally have all of her body matted and her nails glossed (one final look will tell me that this morning) and I am making progress on her hair.  

It is always so hard at first, to fall in love with the hair and style

"is it thin enough...is it thick enough...is it too curly...is it too straight...is the hair line right...???" 

but I am finally there!

She is so, so cute!! 

There is much head left to root but I am able to relax now and just enjoy the journey.

Have a wonderful week!

First holiday photo shoot!

I feel SO ahead of the game having done my first snowy/Christmas holiday photo shoot.

It's a re-shoot on the mini FBS Tiny Tally as if you remember, my camera lens was broke at the time.

She is 5 inches long with a FULL body/arm/let armature so she's super poseable!  

I don't know if I did a whole lot better this time around but overall, I captured her better than the first time.  It is hard to photograph these teeny ones with a ginormous camera and lens!

This next picture to me looks like a classic newborn portrait :)

This baby is just so sweet and much more nicely done than her photos show.  

I hope she finds her forever mommy soon!

She's $600 plus actual shipping.

She will come with all of the tiny outfits and accessories shown and the sweet teddy bear blanket, a COA from Sherri Williams and my own custom birth certificate.

A Purdey little peek!

Purdey's head is ready for hair!

(And I actually began rooting last night after I took these pictures)

Eeekkk...this first one makes my heart go pitter patter!   

I hope to have her body completed in a few days.  

Obviously it takes longer to do the body since I can only work on one side at a time whereas I can do a layer on the entire head before setting it down.  

Ps...Mama is doing well  :)
