Way way way back Sarah and I started a private swap. We decided on Candy!! One candy that Sarah listed was NERDS and who doesn't love nerds. (the candy is yummy too
) Sarah has been infinitely patient while I worked on these girls. They were a hassle, let me tell ya.
In the end I'm very happy with how they turned out. My SO didn't want me to send them away so now I need to make him one too.
I present Cherry and Orange NERDS:

I used dollyhair's Cherry Pie and Satsuma for their hair. Primed and painted with acrylics. The texture was created with sponges and brush. Finally they're sealed with Satin Mod Podge.
