Dollfie Dream Geta

I had been meaning to try to make a pair of dollfie dream size Geta, and had bought the wood planks and sticks from Daiso last year, but only got around to making them recently. ^^;

I was trying to think how I should make them,  so this is more like a “improvise-as-I-make” type project ^^;

Tutorial: Paper Bunny Ears for Dollfie Dream

Want to make those paper bunny ears for your own dollfie dream girls?  Here’s a quick post on how to do it :) You can probably resize the file to fit other dolls if you like :)

For this tutorial, you will need:

  1. access to a printer
  2. paper (to print the template)
  3. card stock paper (to make the actual bunny ears)
  4. scissors
  5. pencil to trace the template onto card stock paper
  6. marker or other colour paper to draw in the pink area as shown in the template

1) Save this template onto your computer, and print it out using a picture editing program.

Tutorial: Dollfie Dream Socks – Printer Free Version!

Been a while since I last made a tutorial, noticed that the links to the past tutorials are a bit messy (oops!)

This pattern is made to fit Dollfie Dream, feel free to adapt it for other dolls!
IMPORTANT!:
You will need to use light colour fabric or a fabric which you know will not stain your Dollfie Dream.  If you want to use a colour fabric, especially dark color fabric, please test it on a part of your doll which is not normally exposed to check if it stains.

In this tutorial, I used a dark grey cotton knit fabric which I have tested on a spare bust piece I have —  I know for sure the fabric I use will not stain my dollfie dream’s vinyl body. I have bad experience with dark sewing thread (black sewing thread especially), so I am using white thread — also, it is easier to see on photos.

You will need:

  • A Dollfie Dream to lend you her leg (or a different doll if you prefer)
  • Light colour knit fabric (example thin tee-shirt material)
  • Paper
  • Eraser (in case of mistakes, or if you are going to trace with a pen after)
  • Pencil (Optional, a pen)
  • Ruler — if you prefer to make a shorter pair of socks
  • Scissors for cutting out the pattern
  • Scissors for the fabric
  • Sewing machine with light thread (not pictured above) Please use ball-point needle for knit fabric!
