In this book the author shows you exactly how to make your own adorable baby animal collector's dolls, leading you through the entire process every step of the way. Your dolls won't cost much to make, and every doll will be an original, one-of-a-kind work of art. Since no two dolls ever come out exactly alike, each doll will have it's own personality and character. You won't have to learn how to make molds for the doll heads, because each one is hand-sculpted over a simple armature. You don't need a kiln, because you'll be using home-made air-dry clay instead of porcelain. The resulting heads are seamless, hollow, and surprisingly strong. The bodies and ears are made out of soft, huggable cotton velour, and the toes are sculpted with a few easy stitches. Adorable!
