Create the Upper Lip by rolling out a very thin roll of clay and laying this on to the face above the mouth opening to create the upper lip. Blend the lip into place and use a toothpick inserted in the mouth to shape the lip. If the face is smiling, the lip will be stretched in a smooth line. If the lip is relaxed, it may have a fuller shape. Examine pictures of real people to determine the shape and size of lips you want your doll to have.
Create the Lower Lip the same way you created the upper lip. The lower lip is usually fuller than the upper lip. As people age, their lips become thinner.
Set the ears in position behind the half way mark of the head. The top of the ears is at the line of the eyebrows. The bottom of the ears is just above the bottom of the nose. Begin blending the ear into the head on the back side of the ear, then blend the ear into place on the inside of the ear. You can use a pair of tweezers to create an earlobe at the base of the ear.
