Selling Skirts too.



I'm also selling skirts HERE. I only have three of these though since I had less fabric left in the quarter I was working with from older prototypes i made. They fit both Ever after and Monster high dolls.

Selling shorts!


In order to help supplement my own meager income I've decided to start selling some doll clothes. First thing up are these shorts. Despite the picture I only have six to sell that you can get HERE
They fit both EAH and MH.

Repainted Draculaura

The first doll I've done a faceup on. She was a Draculaura from the original styles lineup where they don the same style at bargain bin prices and look it too. Seriously the skirt isn't pleated, the shirt is nothing but mesh and painted fabric. It looks similar but a fair bit uglier in my opinion. I'm waiting on some red hair from dolly hair for her reroot. Not bad for a first attempt but I'm gonna try to get better at it. Just thought she'd make a great practice doll for it.

I dunno why it's sideways but have a strawberry cat in my attempt to mimic scribblenetty

Shoe painting

In a side thing, painting the shoes to bring out more of the detail is fun! A little brown paint and a silver pen looks like a huge improvement to me.
Used this painters brand pen for it. Some of the other ones have a smell that kicks me in the face but this one is great for folks with sensitive noses.

Madison Fear: Hair Day

In returning to catching up on this blog it was time for the reroot for Madison! I used Amethyst and Sea Nymph nylon hair from dolly hair.
I'm a bit too cheap to buy a rerooting tool so I'm using an improvised one of my exacto and a sewing needle clipped to fit. Also a little bit of craft foam helps keep the needle in place so it doesn't wiggle and break as often.

I ran a little bit short on the amethyst but the added hair still looks great to me. Not seen is the fabric glue in her head to help hold the hair in.
Now for reattachment and I was a fair bit nervous she'd get the dreaded bobble head.
Thankfully that didn't happen though and you'd never guess she'd had the thing ripped off. Now for some minor styling.

Some light conditioner in a twisted towel and bam, wavy lovely hair. She still needs a face and her legs restrung since I got some springs for it. Just keeping the springs from wearing apart while I string her is the issue. ; 3 ;

Well THAT was interesting

Apparently the auto fire for google deleted my blog because it violated the TOS according to it. Thank goodness for the request review button.
