This Custom Leia Berry Organic doll is the newest member of my little Star Berries World. I had no idea how I was going to pull her off. I just knew that I wanted to create her with the buns and would not accept "it's not possible to do that" for an answer. I had to do a bunch of research about her outfit. I created patterns from scratch for her Dress , Hood ,Belt and Boots. Not to mention the hours it took to get her hair buns to look "Just So". Major mission indeed ! The photo shoot was so much fun. I was able to try some new ideas with backgrounds and lighting. I took a few snap shots of my early attempts of working out her hair cinnamon buns style. I have added the images below. You can imagine how much fun it must have been for dear late Carrie Fisher to have to come into work 2 hours early just to style her hair. It took me much longer,lol. You can get a human to cooperate for a hair-do, but dollies are a bit more fussy because they won't sit still when you need them too, LOL. True Story. But we worked things out. I promised her I would make her look fabulous and eventually she did.....
