Petite Bella is back , even sweeter and more poseable than before !







I have been busy making a new batch of Petite Bella tiny dolls. I had meant to simplify these little dolls but no, I couldnt resist making a few changes to the way I put the dolls together and it ended up taking more time not less !


I am now wiring the limbs in much the same way as I do with my 12th scale figures but on a much smaller scale. The result is very poseable and strong little dolls.


The faces havent changed and I will be making some modern Bella dolls but these little vinatage ones are my favourites.


The standing dolls come with boxes, slimmer versions of the originals and the little sitting dolls simply come as they are ready to sit on a chair or shelf or bed and incredibly cute.


As always no two are the same .


Hope you like seeing a little of how I make these dolls .


Finally my apologies for not commenting on anyones blogs recently. I have been having real problems , although frustratingly I could comment on my own blog ! I am so happy to have visited Bloggers help forum this morning and now I can comment again ! Apparently the commenting problem is due to the embedded comment forms and the simplest way to fix it if you are having problems is simply to uncheck the "stay signed in" button when prompted to enter your email and password . So easy and thanks to " The new katney " for explaining it so simply on the forum.

Just gorgeous!
Ps: always adding changes and details that take a lot of time seem to be a common bug between miniaturists (I do the same every time! :D )

Good to see them back. I was sad when I read you stopped making them and the other 1:24ths. They are adorable and I am looking forward to seeing the modern ones.
Love,
