    This is a picture of my newest baby. The dog is Picasso my Jack Russell/Pit Bull BIG baby. He is harmless. The baby is actually a doll that I made. She is a vinyl blank from Secrist dolls. I painted her and hand rooted her hair and eyelashes. Her name is sparrow.

    That is a cool looking doll. If you wouldn't have said it was a doll, I would have thought it was a real baby. And the dog is so cute too.

    WWW.secrist.com has everything you will need. You can also buy a kit with DVD instructions from Hobby Lobby. I'm not sure if the brushes are with the kit. Secrist has a full kit with DVD's, brushes, paint, doll parts, diaper, clothes, glue, hair, rooting tool, pre-sewn body, tie-wraps, paint pallette, and more. Everything you need. I really enjoyed making this doll. If you want to start small and less expensive, they have a 6" kit for about $50.00. Everything included. Check them out.

    No Joke! The police were called and tried to jimmie my window to open the car! The lady who called the police had a red face. I was quite pleased that she looked so real!
