The Little White Dress

Art Tutorial 23

By Lynne Suprock

I have in my closet, two little black dresses that I adore.  So simple but elegant.  The legacy of all little black dresses, yes?

Well, today I decided that white would suit a simple mixed media project I had been sleeping on for awhile now.  My friend and neighbor, Brenda gifted me two small Ginny Dolls.  They were in very good condition and so were their little clothes.  I studied them for a few days and decided to reproduce them to use in a jewelry project.  

White would be perfect, so that I could add color easily if I wanted to later.  To do this, I needed molding compounds.  First, I needed to cast the dress, then fill the impression with a durable product that when finished, could be applied to little books or worn as jewelry.

The products I chose were Knead-A-Mold and Apoxie Sculpt, Super White.  I demo how to make the little white dress below, on my YouTube channel.  Click and Enjoy!

Well, season five of the show, Make It Artsy, on PBS, did not disappoint!  There are several talented instructors giving wonderful project instructions.  All PDF's for any of the episodes, whether the full videos are still shown on their website or not, are available through their website.  For the PDF written instructions for this whole project go to:

For season five, I completed and aired three projects with Julie Fei-Fan Balzer.  It was so much fun in their studio, surrounded by so many talented people.  One of the three projects was to create Chihuly inspired ornaments to float in ponds or to hang in trees.  The image below is a picture I took while at the Phipps Conservatory in Pittsburgh, PA for my inspiration. If you would like to see how I created my look alike,  just click the below the image!  Enjoy!

Yet again, one more time, for the 7th time, I filmed an episode with Julie Fei Fan Balzer on the PBS crafting show, MAKE IT ARTSY.

Such a wonderful time and how I loved meeting up with other creatives and filming these episodes.  In this episode I demo how to use Aves Fix It or Apoxie Sculpt to transfer images like toille and bees.

The last one aired is this September.  Check your local networks for Season 7 and tune in.  Also, for a complete written PDF of this project go to:
