Weighting & Filling
Permalink   

Hiya Everyone

I am about to fill and weight my 22inch 'suckylip' berenguer baby, what does everyone else fill their dolls with of this size?,

Also I dont know whether to leave him bald or root him or try out a wig (his head is really big thinking take me sooo long to root), what do you guys think? Also whats peoples opinions of wigs?

By the way this is the doll that over cooked in my oven, I think Im going to cover the dodgy bubble on his finger with a rattle or toy !weirdface

Love Karen & Babies x

Hi Karen,

I Just Weighted My Baby Today, I Used Micro Glass Beads & Fat pellets for the body, poly pellets for the head, and just fibrefill for the limbs

Umm I Haven't Used A Wig Yet... I Think Theres No Harm In Trying a wig, you could try it? :)

Oh I Read your post, i am alway paranoid about even being 1 minute over the 8mins lol :)

Dont Forget To Post pictures!

Hello Karen,  with the weighting in the forum, some one said you fill the bottoms of the legs with micro glass beads then poly fill to top,unless they are 1/4 limbs, then you could use they poly pellets, also you mostlly fill them. I glue a piece of flannel or calico over the top with quick dry craft glue. With the body you make a sack and fill it with the mini glass beads, sometimes you could go half and half,then poly fill lightly arround the out side. Same for arms as well as legs. And the pellets and poly fill in the head.weirdfaceJune M from Oz
