**This
seminar may not address all the needs of every doll you bring, but in bringing more
than is needed, a good selection will be available for instructional and application purposes. There is no problem
with bringing extra dolls to assure good selection.
Dolls to Bring
1. 3-4
Antique bisque shoulder head with damaged shoulder plate, with kid bodies. The kid body
on at least one must need work, or bring a separate separate body that needs work. At least two dolls should have once have had eyelashes that
are now missing or partly missing.
2. 2-3 Antique bisque head dolls with compo/paper mache ball jointed bodies.
1 of the bodies should be a 5 part German baby body. The heads on the bodies may be okay or
need repair! This is the bisque/china seminar, they can be among the ones you bring to repair in class. The
heads should have a crack (no facial cracks or breaks), and body must need work, or you can bring a separate body to work
on if desired. They should not have major composition loss, but require patching of cracks and rebuilding
of missing or damaged fingers, toes, etc. This seminar does not include instruction
on a full repaint, but focuses on repair, patching and accessory skills. The bodies
should not have any missing parts.
3.
2 Wigs - If the dolls you bring do not have wigs, bring 3-4 with you to work on. 1) Mohair wig- You will need a GOOD but
messed up mohair wig--it can come on the above dolls or be separate. 2)
Human hair wig - good but messed up human hair wig--it’s better if they come on the dolls.
4. 2-3 Antique china head dolls. At least one must have a damaged shoulder plate
(you will not have time to do face breaks requiring painting the features in this class.) In addition,
at least one must require work on the body. You will be shown details of china doll bodies for fabrication
and/or replacement.
