Hi,

I happen to have an extra fan left over from my recent “Chantelle” doll that I created.  It is slightly darker than the one pictured.  Please post this giveaway to your blog!  When the followers get to 200 I will give the fan away and post a new giveaway in celebration!  Please just leave a comment letting me know you want to be entered.
Hugs,
Gina

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY! 
May your day be filled with, peace, joy, happiness & the love of your family!

As promised, here are several new photos of Chantelle.  I will put them on my website for a higher resolution.
Chantelle is an original miniature porcelain doll.  She is created from original molds by me.  She is 1/12th scale and stands approximatley 5 1/2″ tall.  She is a special one of a kind lady with exquisite details.

In this side view you can see the tiny rose in her hair.  It is handmade by miniature artist Carol Wagner.  I just love her amazing flowers, they are so lifelike.

Chantelle has a tiny hand applied and fired-on 24 caret gold necklace with tiny Swarovski Crystals.  She has piercing blue eyes and fiery red hair.  You can also see a close up of her dark charcoal 3/4 length gloves. 

Here is a back view of the bodice of Chantelle’s gown.  All of the lace on her gown is antique andhand dyed to a dark charcoal gray color.  It compliments the plum color of her gown and sets off her red hair.

You can see how fine the antique lace is in this photo and how nicely it lays and drapes.  You can also see the detail in the styling of her hair.

A nice detail of the front of Chantelle’s bodice.  It features tiny beading at her decolatage and lovely swags of purple silk cording, tiny beads and Swarovski Crystals.

Chantelle looks regal in her gown.  She is ready for the ball.

I have finally finished Chantelle.  She gave me a few challenges that I will discuss later.  For now, I just wanted to introduce the finished doll and show you some photos.  I will be posting many more photos of different angles and close ups.  Once I get the photos uploaded to my site, you will be able to see larger, higher resolution images.
