Do you Etsy?

I do!  Check out my shop for custom dolls, clothes and accessories and anything else I can glue, sew or knit together.


What have I gotten myself into?

Special delivery!  Last week I ordered 2 oz of Teeswater fiber for my first real re-root.  I've attempted a couple times but never had good materials.  My first attempt was on a CoolCat scalp with human hair I cut off a weft.  That started to drive me crazy immediately!  Then I tried synthetic hair on a Takara scalp which wasn't as bad but I wondered why I would spend so much time replacing the old hair with more of the same (maybe even inferior) quality.  Just doesn't sound like a good investment.

Long alpaca was hard to find and too expensive and nylon and saran overwhelmed me with all the color options.  And then I found an Etsy listing for the locks in the picture and loved them. I only hope I got enough!

Hello there!

Hello dollies and gents!  I am starting this blog to share my adventures in creating custom dolls of all types.  I must share that I am new to this community with only a few dolls under my belt but I'm putting it all out there. The good, bad and the ugly.

My current focus is on Blythe dolls. Customization, clothes, photography, everything.  I will share my creations and trials here.

First up...Charley, my most recent WIP.  She's a Raspberry Sorbet Blythe and the first featured Candy Cutie!  Be sure to come back to see her finished look in upcoming post.
