I have been working on making a BJD out of beads lately, I hope you all don't mind if I share her here ^_^ Her name is Esmeralda, she is approximately 9 inches tall. She is made of glass seed beads, organic cotton thread and stuffing, and has Swarovski pearl joints. She has 13 points of articulation. She still needs clothes and shoes, I will share more photos of her when they are finished. All in all I am happy with how she turned out, although I am thinking of slightly changing the placement of the torso joint on the next doll. Anyways, here she is!

The pearls are actually really nice for joints, they come in many colors and sizes, and are perfectly round. I was so happy it actually worked!

Wow this is so creative! And it must have cost so much time! I'm really impressed, I also love the detail of the 'painted' nails

Thank you both!!  it does take quite a bit of time, but it's fun, so I don't really notice. I'm already planning the next doll, but telling myself I have to finish Esmeralda's clothes first!

She is very interesting, Snegurochka. Almost like a mosaic.
