Meet
the newest addition to my doll family: Sugarbaby! She was hand sculpted
by Beth Thomas of Mere Whimsey. Sugarbaby breathes "sweet nothings"
into her little bubble with plans to release it so it will burst and
some lucky mortal will be blessed when the nothings are scattered,
sweetening any mortal mood.She
sits less than 6 inches tall. You can see more of Beth's dolls here.
