Welcome! News Flash!!!! My next online “Live” course starts Wednesday, September 23rd, 2020!!! This course features some of my favorite little dolls, BLEUETTE!!! In this two month course I will be demonstrating to you how to make a Bleuette from start to finish. I will be featuring the Bleuette “Premiere Jumeau”, Bleuette “Silver” SFBJ 301, and Bleuette “Gold” SFBJ 60. As time allows, I will also show you some of the other Bleuette’s and Bleuette “Friends” I make.
The online courses currently are all done through private Facebook groups. (You must have a Facebook account to participate at this time. I am planning on eventually putting my courses on another platform to eliminate the need for Facebook but this particular course will still be on Facebook.
First let me clarify, you do not NEED to be present for the “Live” classes on Wednesday nights at 7:30 PM Central Time. All classes are recorded and the videos are available for viewing at any time in the group that is convenient for you watch. I have had many students worldwide through the years that the time for class does not work out conveniently for them so they have never attended a “Live” class.
The cost for the Bleuette Course is $50.00. This is an exceptional value, for being able to learn the steps to porcelain doll-making from the comfort of your own home, at your own pace. Once purchasing the course you have lifetime access to all the classes, videos, photos, and instructions. No time restriction on taking the course.
Also included in this link is eight past courses available for purchase with a limited time special: purchase four courses and receive a fifth course of your choice free! Just purchase your four courses then contact me as to which course you would like to attend for free. Limited time offer ends November 1st, 2020.
I will also include a link to information on my accompanying CD Workbooks for the Bru, Jumeau, and In-Depth Blue Eye Painting courses. These three courses are the only ones with accompanying CD Workbooks. There is no CD Workbook available for the new Bleuette course.
Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a great holiday season and are enjoying the New Year! Wow, 2019 is here. I am looking forward to a brand new year and many dolls are in the works for this year along with new online classes and other things. I just finished putting together these two Bleuettes and a “Friend”! Tonight I am offering them as undressed dolls. I am hoping by Monday to get them dressed and then they will be available dressed or undressed. Undressed they are $325.00 each, dressed they will be $375.00.
The first one is made from the Seeley “Premiere Jumeau” mold. She has blue paperweight glass eyes, a pale blonde mohair wig and hand carved teeth.
I just love this 1907 Jumeau Bleuette “Friend”. She is made from a Jean Nordquist Collectible Doll Company Mold. She has brown glass paperweight eyes and a blonde mohair wig with hand carved teeth.
