This is a doll I made for a commissioned piece this past Christmas. I had never made a fairy before, nor had I copied an illustration, so this doll took some time to do since I wanted it to mimic the old time illustration as much as possible. After six different styles of wings - something that was also a first, I settled on painted chiffon around a wire frame. I had tried glittery wings, some of velvet - they were too heavy or too shiny. She is cute, I think.
