Population Boom



After burying the floor under a foot deep mass of fabrics and trims and suffering countless needle and pin pricks, the castle is now loaded with lots of gaily dressed people.  All the clothes have been hand made and many of the dolls were hand wigged too.  Many of the dolls used are from the castle before I started to renovate it, a couple were made from polymer clay especially for the remodelled castle.

Heidi Ott child doll in green dress.
Sitting lady in black.
Lady in blue velveteen gown
Heidi Ott lady doll in red gown.
Golden hair net.
She needs more jewellery!
The men of the castle.  Not too sure about that blue hat though!
Zaltar, Sarisha and Nera.  The two girls were made from polymer clay.
 I named the castle Dawncrest because certain elements of the castle reminded me of a fictional castle called Dawncrest.  So to enhance the similarity I made three dolls up to look like three characters from the story in which the original Dawncrest appears.  They are from an exotic foreign land and have just arrived.  Do you remember those boxes I started to make a couple of weeks ago?  When I get around to finishing them, they will be the travellers' luggage.


 Now I'll probably end up spending all week rearranging the dolls until I find a position I like for everyone.
