African-american hair?

15 years ago

I'm going to be making dolls for my baby cousins who will be flower girls at my wedding. One of them is mixed race, and has very traditional african-american hair. Any ideas on how to give the doll a realistic looking little afro to match my cousin's?

If you do the searching you will find that there are many African-American gardening groups attached to churches and in local communities all accross the country. Some are loose groups, some are more organized. There might be some peonies and peony people that fit your criteria but being of any ethnic group has not been of any importance to most people that like any type of peony.
