The putty has to dry before you can attach the head to a body. The eyes must be dry before setting the eyelashes.

Time to assemble the little dolls. Always line the joints with leather or moleskin so the porcelain does not squeak when you move the legs/arms.

This was the last week of making this batch. The kids are happy to be here and mama is glad to go on vacation!
