Gioia


Gioia is probably the grumpiest, sulkiest girl I have ever made. Most know by now that my dolls tend to be very good at sulking but Gioia does take it to a new level. 
To "help her on" a bit I have given her the softest suri alpaca tailspun yarn hair and made her body a bit softer than usual to make her extra huggable. Because what else stops sulking as well as some very good cuddles?
This means her hair is delicate and she's even worse at standing than my usual dolls (usually I can take a few pics of them standing up with very clever posing and a lot of patience but I really couldn't manage with Gioia).
Gioia will be available in my indiecart shop sometime this week. I hope she will find her perfect home where she will be loved despite her strong head ;)
She has dark tan skin, blue eyes and is wearing a gorgeous dress by Dommi Design. She will also come with my traditional heart undies and socks and handknit boots. Maybe some other items of clothing will be added in the next few days.

The big surprise

So, I just had an idea, and as it will be my birthday soon I thought why not just follow up on it ;)

I will offer a doll, a particular doll that I will be working on next (while I also work on some overdue wish list dolls). 

She will be a big doll (around 19 inches but that varies a bit).

She will have dark tan skin.

And the rest I will just decide as I go along.

Soooooo... You need to be a bit crazy to purchase this doll/spot for a doll. Because you will not be able to choose anything. You will have no say at all in the creation. There will be no pictures, no communication until I send you the tracking number end of June latest.

What I can say about her:

She will be a girl, a big girl, non sculpted.

you will be able to VETO one hair style (yarn, weft, locks), I will decide on hair length and colour. I will use a "natural" colour for the eyes (I never make dolls with pink eyes for example). 

So, this doll can be a crazy pink haired girl, or a timid brunette. She will have attitude, but what attitude I cannot say yet.

So this doll will be for the very courageous, the ones who really, really, like all my dolls and are up for a big adventure. I understand this takes a lot of trust. But I promise I will make you a doll that I truly love in the hope that you will too. My choices will not be influenced by what I know about you, the buyer, though.

Oh, one more thing I can promise: She will come in my trademark heart undies :)

So, if you're up for it shoot me a message on FB. But please no wishes or suggestions ;)

Oh, she will be 550 CHF (swiss francs) plus 50 CHF shipping. So 600 CHF in total, due until this sunday, may 17th. If more than one person is interested I will choose in 24 hours from now... 
If noone is interested I will make her and offer her RTG end of June latest...
