Red Queen of the Masquerade

Phew.... the last big work of this year is done!
Thanks to the help from my facebook and instagram fans, the doll has got a name - Many have suggested to include "red" in her name, and "Mask" and some royal title, so I have called her "Red Queen of Masquerade", which I think suits her very well and makes sense, because no one knows her real name, and who she is, and where she comes from, but today she is wearing red and she is the queen of masquerade ball.
And yes, I have made this doll, because I wanted to introduce you to the technique of making self standing dolls.
When I have started my career of a doll artist, I have been making this kind of dolls and loved them a lot, so I thought I should summarise my knowledge and make a tutorial for all of you who would like to learn.

Autumn is a time of Witches!

It's getting dark, and it's raining most of the time, and going out doesn't seem like a good idea anymore - oh yes, it is a perfect time for crafting!
For all my crafty friends and followers - a new tutorial! This time I wanted to create a doll making guide that would be easy to follow even for those of you who have never made a doll before. It is great for the beginners and with some help from an adult, even kids could give it a try.
So if you would like to have some stress free crafting time, to decorate your home with a cute "Pumpkin Witch" - this doll making guide is just for you.

And, the Pumpkin Witch, the decorative doll made entirely by me, will got to the lucky person, that will be randomly chosen from those of you, who will get their tutorial till October 23 2017.
happy crafting everyone!
