I finished Tiny Talyssa's fairy costume last night, so took her out in the garden for some photos...
Talyssa always reminded me of my niece's daughter. Not only did she resemble her, in my opinion, but she always had her bangs in her eyes in much the same way too.
Unfortunately the doll's head is shaped like a 'jelly bean' in that it is very high and round, with nothing much in the back. So this wig did not fit well at all. I ended up having to cut a lot off the bangs, and then trim them some more. They ended up sticking way out, so I had to use hair gel to hold the bangs down (with plastic wrap over her head to protect her face up). The wig still keeps slipping forward, since there's nothing in the back to hold it in place. I ended up making her a 'flower fairy' hat to help minimize her very high head.
Then I took her outside for some Flower Fairy photos....
