Custom Doll Order - Anne Boleyn

 

A doll for Iain. He asked for Anne Boleyn with her head chopped off for a friend of his who is a History teacher. I spent a long time making her delicate outfit and arranging her hair so it was really strange to then LITERALLY CUT HER HEAD OFF, but whatever the customer wants the customer can have!






Added some blood and half-stuck the head back on. Such a weird thing to do, to chop off her head, but it worked and it's certainly DIFFERENT! It's what Iain wanted and he was soooo pleased with her.

He actually asked for a Mary Queen of Scots when he came to collect this one. This man is brilliant and he has so many ideas of interesting dolls he wants! Much more fun to do the research into these historical and literary figures than to work form someone's photo of their niece etc!

When I get time over summer I'd like to choose some popular figures of my own to sell on Etsy as pre-made dolls (not made to order). DOLLS I WANT TO MAKE.
