It’s Daisy and Clover! Her current “mommy” dropped her off as a very wonderful surprise last weekend :) I am so happy to have her visit ^O^ They visited in a “capsule box” ;P First look at her again after such a long time! I am bursting with happiness!
I have to make her some new clothes and take her out for pictures when I have time ^^;;;; been too busy this year =_=;
Past related entries on Daisy and Clover here.
Wow time flies, it’s Halloween already! I still recall the first Halloween tutorial post which was inspired by puchicollective. :) This year, I have a simple one to share too!
For this small tutorial, you will need to have access to a colour printer (preferably), paper, scissors and craft glue or double sided tape.
This template will fit blythes, Licca and dolls with similar sized hands.
1) Save this template onto your computer, and print it out using a picture editing program.
I have a lot less time to play dolly this year, but once in a while I really could not resist getting something (usually made by others) for them. It could be also because I feel guilty towards them for not giving them as much attention as last few years, but it certainly is enjoyable to get something nice for them! :P
The mail loots of the day….
Take note, this pair of glasses is extremely tiny! A quick measure tells me it’s about 3 cm wide ^^; It is carefully hand made by Matin san, owner of Atelier Matin in Japan ^^/! You can see his works on his Flickr and if you wish to acquire his goods, you can join his yahoo group for latest news. Be warned tho his glasses are very popular, they’re always sold out really quick!
I had the great pleasure to meet him when I went for the Blythe Beauty Contest last year :) Too bad I was probably having cold feets so I did not talk to him (and many others) enough ;_;!
Wonderful pink rimed tinted shades :D so exquisitely made!
I personally feel that Matin’s work is definitely like the branded goods in the dolly world :) he also made this tiny little Ray gun being held by the custom Blythe in the postcard below :)
5 items includes dress, underskirt, a pair of socks, a bow sewn on a hairpin, and wooden giraffe.
final value of the auction will be donated to Sovi Lavi (Saving Lives).
(Auction completed, thank you!)item number: 130255549553
5 items includes dress, underskirt, a pair of socks, a bow sewn on a hairpin, and wooden giraffe.
(Doll and shoes not included!)
The dress and underskirt will fit licca bodies, and loosely on Obitsu 21 cm bodies.
An example:
Socks fit more snugly on blythe and licca bodies.
They have reached their new home with their new owner, who happened to be someone lovely I know XD this is a photo taken by her new owner which I got permission to post up ^^/
So good to see her out and about lol her hair and eyelashes look like they have a story to tell!
I haven’t had much dolly time these days, but finally last weekend I took Luna out :)
Don’t mind her older get up lol no time to make new clothes and I’m running a bit low on doll funds ^^;
Time sure flies! My husband was reminding me that I haven’t updated this site for a while (oops) Sorry about that! ^^; Just been really busy that is all! I do miss my dolly time tho ;_; While I do not have much time to sew very much these days, I still play with my dolls once in a while :) I will be posting some pictures I took of some of my dolls here for now, until I get more time to do sewing again ^^;
On another note, Daisy and Clover has been auctioned off via yahoojapan thru the Princess a la mode Charity Auction and we’re very pleased that she’s going to a wonderful home in Canada! (WOOHOO!)
Daisy and Clover will be auctioned off during the last batch of the Princess a la mode Charity Auction, which is from June 16 – June 22. For more information and details on where the proceeds goes to, be sure to watch blythedoll.com closely!
This year I am unable to take part in the blythe beauty contest due to various personal reasons, I missed Daisy and Clover so much ;_; The experience last year felt like a dream, a wonderful dream at that, I hope to be able to take part again in future! I would like to give heartfelt special thanks to Natsuko and Tibiloo for letting me know of Daisy and Clover’s recent status :)
Hope all of you had a wonderful easter :)
I haven’t had time to take much doll pictures, finally today I brought Lemonbuttercup out with me when out visiting some friends. She wears fashionable shades made by wonderful Atelier Matin!
Going to start a section with selected photo of my dolly activities. Occassionally some sewing by other fellow dolly seamstresses will be featured ;)
Here we have Maple, a Hallo Harvest. She’s wearing a pink knitted top by Betsyjean79 over a top I had made :) She was discovering the first signs of spring with me at a nursery in Steveston.
