69.233.130.235Did I read that wrong?

Hubba Hubba - well yeah.. sort of..

75.105.43.78it's a caricature of her. She has a rather distinct look with a bunch of curly red hair.
Here's a couple of shots from the Aug 28th kick off to the Tea Party Express.. the one that ended in Washington DC. .. it started in Sacramento. .. We all went to that one. (BA & my son's first political event.. ever!!)
Pete (my son) and BA (my sis)
I made her do the *pose* thing for me to get a shot of the button on her hat.
- O MG =d= I was going to ask...

69.144.143.11who that red head was in the pics with the gorgeous hair! I wish my hair was like that - not the color but the style. Does she have as fiery of a temper as the color suggests? (Isnt there a saying about red heads being firey?) hehe - Re: O MG =d= I was going to ask...

75.105.43.78Actually, she's pretty civil when she's angry. I don't remember ever being around when she's actually lost her temper. .. and with as rude, petty and witchy as a lot of the women are in the bay area, she's certainly had the opportunity. - So how did that march to DC end up?

69.144.143.11I havent been able to follow up on much of whats going on. The paper here has posted a LOT about ACORN - which shocks me since its a small town paper.
I do love that shoe though. what did you make the bubbles out of? - Re: So how did that march to DC end up?

75.105.43.78http://www.teapartyexpress.org/ - The new tour
The 9-12 Tour that ended up in Washington DC, had over a million people show up.. though, as expected, the msm tried to downplay it as much as possible. .. and of course barry said he didn't know it was happening. (lying pos)
The *bubbles* were clear beads that were glued in with irridescent sparkle glue to give it a subtle characteristic of how bubbles show irridescence. She got it sunday night and was pretty tickled.
The more they dig into ACORN (and now SEIU), the more corruption is uncovered. .. and of course, the community organizer in chief, sez he knows nothing. LOL. (of course, it was quite different when he stood in front of them and said "ACORN will help form policy of this administration!". oops.) - You are amazingly tallented...

- Thanks Stacey & Karen. .. were you here when I made the doll?

75.105.43.78I guess the shoe is a "minerature" (?)
Were you guys around when I made the doll of her in her belly dancing costume? (Christmas 2006) (belly dancing is a hobby of hers) It was kind of fun. .. the first doll I ever attempted. My sister is good to me. .. She says she likes my stuff.. even if she doesn't. LOL.. (but I think she liked her doll)
- Yes I was...
Posted by KarenFL on October 4, 2009, 6:05 am, in reply to "Thanks Stacey & Karen. .. were you here when I made the doll?"
72.40.40.104And I remember thinking how much it looked like your sister.
If you were to take orders... let me know! lol - Re: Yes I was...

75.105.43.78I might like to actually try it some time to sort of work out the kinks and streamline the process. I'll talk to you about it next week when I get my email back. Maybe you can help me out.
Unless I find a source for doll bodies (thinking moveable arms/legs), they'd pretty much have to be like the one I made for BA. .. ie: little doll 'statuettes'. .. more of a display doll than a 'play with' doll. .. but I suppose even that would be like having the subject frozen in time, huh. .. sort of a different/fun version of a traditional portrait sculpture. ... anyway, it might be fun to give it a try. - and an afterthought..

75.105.43.78I get a lot of my ideas when I'm in the shower.. LOL.. anyway, I just got the thought, and wonder if, a ceramic figurine of people (or their kids) would have any appeal.
The dolls like I made for BA are a type of plastic. (a baked specialty type of sculpy).. it's pretty fragile, actually. .. and though ceramics do break, they're still stronger than the plastic.
- I was thinking of a Paige doll...
