when are tinies- too tiny????

You did an excellent job on your DOT. Now you have me singing that Animaniacs song in my head! LOL!

BTW, what is the wig that you have on Bongie!! Love how it lays down and the long plaits down her back.

================

 

Thanks! her hair is a wig I made from some poor Bratz Kidz doll that happened to be unlucky enough to be on clearance! waste not! I just snipped it and glued it like Rainman's tutorial

I think I have been singing Animaniacs for a month straight now! it won't stop~!

 

You're a brave soul
I've been meaning to try the Rainman glued wig for ages, since I have several wig caps, but no nerve!!!!

 

I just use plastic wrap! I wrap their whole body in it, then rubberband around their neck to keep it in place, and glue from the back of the neck to the front of the head, it's not too scary, and if you use a plastic coffee straw, the hair won't stick to your fingers

 

I say never too tiny!

 

OMG... what a cute tiny piggy... and a thumb sucker too!! LOL!!

I bet you could sew for an ant, Spampy!!! Your sewing is sooo good and TINY too!!

===================

 

Good tip about the coffee stirrer.

OK, I'm trying to envision this... so after the wig hair dries on the plastic wrap, then you trim the plastic wrap under the hair??

Next, do you glue the wig to the wig cap? or do you then have just a normal type, free standing wig???

Next time you make a wig, maybe you could do a YouTube video! {{hint,hint}}

========================

 

after the glue has dried, the plastic wrap just peels off the wig, and the glue holds it all together, I use a dab of tacky glue to hold the wig on the doll's head after that

 

No such thing as too tiny! I really love DD-Anne's 10 cm(?) girls, and they're one of the smallest out there. =3

 

Thank you! My DD-Anne's are some of my very favorites...The one on the left is pinky skin and the one on the right is grey skin, though my picture doesn't do it justice. Here is a better picture: http://fairygarden.blogbus.com/logs/24902508.html

 

My little piggy's name is Bitty. After a doll my mom has had since she was a kid.
And also, I too LOVE the saran wrap wig method. Especially for the tinies.
Here are two that I've done so far...

 

I like the size of the 16cm Lati Yellow. Anything smaller than that just looks awkward and weird to me, the joints look odd and there's very little detail.

 

they've been available in various retailers more often than on the main elfdoll site in my experience. Denver Doll has some in stock at the moment in fact. :3

I love this thread. Noob here, and I am soaking up all these good tips. I was totally fascinated by my first little ones. [Relatively big] -- pink and blue Lucky. The detail and life in them amazed me. They are kicky, and smacky, heh. Love 'em anyway. PIPECLEANER-WIRED?? Oh joy. And tacky glue!

I have a variety of smalls, down to these *Fairyland >Soso AND *Dollzone >Momo *Orient Doll pocket fairy AND *Mystery ID, two teennnies.

One day I will get those last two photographed and get back around here.
I got them on eBay from someone who wasn't sure who they were, but by then I didn't care. I was hooked.

 

This is genius. I don't know what your IQ is but your DREAM-Q
...Off the chart.

I formally join your sssss

 

YOU made this outfit... [go to #46 too see pic]

Hope it's not off topic but I gotta tell you I am still chuckling at your avatar. I think I'm going to laugh every time I remember it, and it IS memorable. It good to have happy, pure, tender things to think about. Turns on the good lights in the brain. That is what these teenies are especially designed for.

 

Thank you so much for sharing your Conga Line. Do another one with their legs lifted so they can be Rockettes. [kidding] I found one of my little unidentified adorables. Angelregion Little Genie Lilica.

I was able to be sure because there is one for sale right now in the market, with excellent sample photographs.

I don't mean to be spamming this thread. I would get so confused if I tried to put all this in one box, and most certainly would keep hitting the wrong button to erase it just when almost finished.
