My name is Paola, I'm an amateur dollmaker and I live in Voghera, N. Italy. Through the years I tried to create many kinds of dolls, from simple cloth to full-sculpts. Now I discovered by chance the fascinating world of ball-jointed bodies and fell instantly in love. I attempted to make a BJD using Fimo, wasn't very satisfied, then I drafted a cloth body jointed with wooden balls... in a word, I tried every media to create a BJD on my own! Now I'm saving to get a BJD so I'll be able to finally hold one in my hands and study all her secrets. I'm sure I'll find much help from this forum. Kisses to you all, Paola
