Here she is, my first paper clay doll. What a great medium. This has been quite a learning experience and I can't wait to make more dolls.
Now the problem at hand; what to name her? I had planned to call her 'Fanny' for Fanny Price of Jane Austin's, Mansfield Park, but I don't really like the name Fanny. (I'm suddenly thankful that my Mother didn't name me Fanny!) Sooo, any suggestions for a name for her??

Daphne, She's lovely.You did an excellent job.
ReplyDeleteHave you considered naming her Emma?
I'm glad your Mother didn't name you Fanny too.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you like her Miss Marie. I had thought of Emma and that's a definite possibility! Thank you

I thought Emma too .
ReplyDeleteshe's really really wonderful
isn't it fun !!!!
can't wait to see what you do next
I like the special touches, such as the parasol and her hat.
ReplyDeleteShe's lovely! I think since she's the first star of the blog, she should be
ReplyDelete"Miss Daphne".
Oh Debbie! How sweet. But really a "Miss Daphne' would simply have to have a dog head like my avatar. A much closer resemblance to the original... tee hee! I feel inspired to make one but must first finish a couple more of the works in progress that crowd my work table.
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone for your kind comments!
Love, Daphne
Miss Marie, the parasol was a gift from one of her admirers but I fashioned the bonnet from a little straw hat. I may do a little tutorial on how to make a Regency era bonnet from a ready made straw hat if anyone is interested in how to do them.

ReplyDeletePaperia. I'm getting out of control here, but I couldn't resist. She is lovely and deserves a proper name. I think she is an Emma.

ReplyDeleteI think she's a Rachael Brampton. Beautiful craftsmanship.
ReplyDeletePersonally, I think she should be named Emily.
