Little Tudor period felt dolls and a giveaway
(Moderators, I've checked the posting rules and this didn't seem to fall under any of the Don'ts, so I hope it's alright.)
This was the original doll set, inspired by the buyer's own period costumes which you can see here: http://atalaia-leafsong.deviantart.com/art/Sir-Henry-Pierrepont-135110443

Unfortunately, she had to cancel the order and I was left with 2 gorgeous dolls without owners.
I didn't feel right putting them up for sale since they were so personal and I decided to repurpose them somehow.
The male doll, although lovely and rich in details, was easier for me to let go of and was quickly transformed. I made him into my Hamlet doll. =)
*giggles* You'd never tell they are the same doll, would you?
But the other doll... =(
I was so proud of her that I couldn't make myself dismantle her, so I kept her in my box, hoping something would come up that she would be perfect for.
And it finally did! =D
When my friend niniel_amaya mentioned she wanted to have a giveaway, I knew immediately that the time had come!
I got the doll out of storage, fixed a couple of things about her and sent her on her way.
I hope she goes to a loving home because she taught me so much, she deserves it!
And, who knows? =) Maybe yours is that loving home!
It's super easy to participate!
