Over the past 5 or 6 months I have had three different people ask me if I would paint them doll faces that they can use on there flat face doll patterns. I thought about it and I have started creating faces. These are the first two, now I have to design some kind of packaging, with directions, etc. I would like to make a variety of these faces, from pretty ladies to Santas, children, fairies etc.So far everyone who has seen them thinks it a great idea.The faces will be printed on premium cotton fabric and can be washed... great for kids dolls.Please let me know what you think.Thanks so much for visiting!Hugss,Caroline

Sounds like a good idea! Your faces look lovely. Lots of people don't feel confident drawing faces and worry that they might spoil the doll. You can already buy doll faces - Dollmakers Journey has them, check them out it might give you some extra ideas
