Miniature Dolls & Mice: A Gallery

Porcelain dolls are beautiful but not something I would make myself - not only because I begrudge the amount of electricity needed to run a kiln but also because I'm an "instant gratification" kind of girl! I also want every doll to be different and for this reason I've begun experimenting with polymer clay. From a little block of oven baked clay and a couple of pipe cleaners, you can fashion an acceptable character doll - its features may not be as refined as porcelain, but the pleasure of knowing it's your own creation makes it well worth while.

	The Bowler (left) & The Pharmacist	TIP: The biggest help with sculpting has been an adjustable magnifying glass with a light. I did find it difficult to fix it to anything as my sitting-room furniture is padded, so I have drilled a hole in the centre of the top of a wooden bar-stool and dropped the end of the support into it - now it can turn freely at any angle and go wherever I need it...
