Restoring or rebuilding a soft puppet Posted by artextrema on Apr 23, 2013
Hi puppets and Stuff friends!
I,m a fan and Verna's disciple of art and technic.
Recently i I had The lucky To buy An original Verna Finley's puppet, signed from 1995.
Almost 20 years of puppet beeing used professionaly buy An. european performer.
When The puppet arrived To My hands was a completly headache, because was full of stains, and a lot of work and repairs To do.
But i New i could give her a New life!
Those last 5 years i,v Been working hard building puppets, so i,v decided To use all My expirience and do it.
My worry was To respect all The original materials and shapes On The puppet.
And that was My concerned, and spent many days working On The details.
I,m so Proud of The result! She is know completly new.
No stains, no broken things! All repaired!
Two weeks working On The extreme Makeover, and finally she is done!
And she is amazing!!!!!
Wanted To share This project with all of you.
And now i,m sure i can repair and rebuild any Verna's Puppet.
I don,T know if you are interested To see some pictures, if so let me know!
Best wishes To all!!!
Oscar

You did great! Love the blush on the cheeks. I would say you have a puppet fit for a performance now.
