This is my first girl bear for ages. It's kind of naturally where I gravitate to but end up trying not to make many because I don't want to make too many....
But anyway...here's MaryLou...she's a 15 inch girl...I made her dress too....
omg I love her!! the hair on top of her head is amazing!!
I used to do these hair-do bears quite a bit. They are a bit of a signature look....however I don't do so many girls these days. Maybe that should change!
yes maam more girls!
Very nice!!!!!!!!!!!!SWEETTT!
Magnificent in every way .
"You can take the girl out of hairdressing but not the hairdressing out of the girl" eh?
She is lovely and her dress is wonderful , but -I hope you won't mind me saying so, Jenny- I am not a fan of the "hair-do".
Maybe it's a "girl thing" (and I don't get it ), but I am picturing her in my mind without the hairpiece and for me that would look better. :teddybear:
The hair sort of "humanizes" the teddy bear too much for my taste.
Wonderful face!
Well these hair-do bears have been very popular for me over the years...and I haven't done one for ages, she was a special request . I think it's the anthropomorphic features which appeal to some collectors . Lets face it a proper teddy wouldn't be seen dead in a frock really would they?
But hey I get what you are saying Peter....this style isn't for everyone and yet some think its the best thing ever. Me l don't mind either way ...it's just another expression of what I like to do...and that is to make striking characterful bears. Some with hair...some without. Personally I like the ones without hairdos best...but I have room in my heart for all of them!
she is great
She is a real cutie, with her hair piece or without!!!!! But she is definitely all girl. I tend to do more boys, too. Don't know why. Working on a girl right now, tho.
Me too...I do few girls nowadays.....I enjoy doing them though..I like to let my imagination run riot!
Beautiful work! I love everything!
Thanks so much!!
