From: Georgiansilver Seeing the Sidewalk Art thread reminded me I have a file with a few pictures of babies made of marzipan (almond paste) which are incredible works of art. I have no way of getting them here but if you would like to see them, please PM me your E-mail addy and will send the file. Best wishes, Mike. |

I've seen miniature polymer clay & porcelain dolls at Doll fairs, but nothing like these ones, so I sent her website to a few dollmakers/collectors I know. sandra |
