Dear All,
I have a whole jar full of eyeballs I've made over time (sounds creepy, doesn't it?) and I don't like a single pair for the current face I am making. So, now I am making another pair or two. I have yet to 'perfect' the best way to make eyeballs, so each pair is a learning thing. I can't really go much farther in a piece until the eyes are in, so. . . the 'eyes have it'---and they have to be just right.
My daughters wanted to take a trip to Goodwill for a 'new' purse. You never know what you will find there and for variety? Well, you can't beat a thrift store. However; I saw something that gave me pause today. I think someone who collected dolls like there was no tomorrow either died or got fed up and cleaned house. There was a large slew of dolls still in their boxes sitting on the Goodwill store shelves---from collectible Barbies to porcelain babies. (No, I didn't cart any of them home---some of them gave me the creeps.) I imagine some other 'collector' will snatch them up. I like dolls to a certain extent, but I can't imagine shelves and shelves just full of dolls staring back at me collecting dust along the way. (I hate dusting.) I think I'd have this crazy urge to take most of them apart and remake them into something less. . . cold.
Peace All,
the DragonLady
