Little Rachel is upset. We're getting her ready for the big meet on Saturday and so she has to wear girl dresses and shoes and we're even styling her wig. She is usually more a tomboy kind of girl and she especially does not love to wear shoes at all, so she's not that happy right now.

I'm working on some outfits for my Kitty Jolie, right now. Since she is a romantic type of Kitty, she'll get some Mori style outfits - and once I'm happy with the design, I plan on making 2 more for sale in LDoll. Also I plan on making some jump suits for her and for MSD as well. They are all the rage here, so why not create some for the dolls as well. It will be a little challenge, given her hip/waist ratio, but it should work. PS: in this photo Melody wears a corset by Raouken and a skirt, hair band and basket by me. PPS: I tried to upload some photos of Melody to the flickr Cerisedolls group, but apparently it doesn't work? Is the group not active anymore? Does anyone know something?

Last Saturday I attended a doll meet in Munich. We weren't that lucky this time with the weather as it was literally pouring with rain most of the time, but luckily there were a few dry spots here and there. It was also a great opportunity to see a Grant Phillippe live, but now I'm not so sure anymore, if he really will be the perfect candidate for my Arjuna-Project? But then again, yes, he has that feminine touch about him that should definitively work.  Oh and did I mention that David had the chance to wear his new outfit? I'm happy that I was able to finish it in time. I actually made a new top and some undies for my RealFee girl in the evening before the meet.   Dollshe Grant Phillippe belongs to Roterwolkenvogel, Dollshe David Kuncci belongs to me, all photos taken by Isi/Hetdansendemeisje.

... but mine has to go still, as she's just too tiny for me to handle. Roro is sold, thank you :) Cute little Roro comes with both faceplates and both have the most adorable Face-up by Kesha. She is normal skin (I didn't notice any yellowing, so if she has some, it would probably be very even) and I am not the first owner of this item. Overall she's in very good condition. The only thing that comes to mind is, that she probably could use some restringing in her legs? At least I've always been of the impression that her right leg is a little bit more floppy than her left leg - but that might also be just me not getting along with tiny dolls like these.

My poor Fashion Line David Kuncci still has no shoes or clothing and he is supposed to join me for a doll meet next Saturday, so it was about time to make him some shoes. Since he prefers a rather casual and comfy style we went with a pair of sandals. Today I'm really happy, that DollShe included the flip-flop feet with the full-set. Cardboard base for sole and footbed The footbed was covered with velour leather And some satin ribbon - finished They fit nicely and don't fall off that easily

After yesterday's post, I decided that I cannot leave the couch anymore like that, so I took the time today and added the finishing touches. I went with this kind of ornamental ribbon, because I think it works quite well with the shabby chic theme. It's sweet, it's tacky, it's like a little bit too much, so it's perfect xD. Some of you wondered, why I added the ribbon at all, the reason is: to hide the ugly spots, that were left from the hundreds of staples that were used to fix the original upholstery. When they created this couch they worked very messy. I tried to cover up some of those dents in the wood, but it wasn't enough. So that's why it needed some kind of decoration, similar to the original one.

I'm currently working on a diorama project for my ¼ sized dolls. Since they are mainly girls ... and also girls who love girly stuff, we decided, that they are going to get a shabby chic styled living room on the middle shelf of my cabinet. Everything will be kept in white with accents in pastel colors and lots of roses. We started working with the couch. This is what the couch looked like 3 weeks ago: This is what the couch looked like after almost 3 hours of taking it apart: This is what it looked like after the first coat of white color and with the new upholstery: I told you, I'll be going for white and motives with roses. Cliché-y much? Yes, but also cute xD. Which leads us to what the couch looks like right now: Already looking good, isn't it? I still need to add a decorative ribbon around the upholstery, similar to what the original design had, so that it'll look more nicely, but I still did not get around doing this.  Honestly, I...

Cutie Daisy showing her tummy Warum nur verpasse ich fast immer die BJD Foto-Event-Tage auf tumblr? Offensichtlich lese ich nicht die richtigen Posts. Anyway, diesen Sonntag, am 29. Mai habe ich ihn mal ausnahmsweise nicht verpasst. Es war #BJDabdomenDay Nun ja, das Ergebnis seht ihr hier. Während überall auf tumblr die muskulösen 65cm + Resin Kerle ihren Sixpack und hübsche MNF Girls ihre grazilen Hüften zeigten, war auch Daisy mit dabei. xD Ach ja: CLAVICLES/SHOULDERS  will fall on the 12th of June   falls noch jemand mitmachen möchte :)

Heute kam meine Monique Bestellung an. Meine leider etwas verunglückte Monique Bestellung, da die beiden Wigs jeweils nicht in der Farbe verfügbar gewesen waren, in der ich sie eigentlich wollte. Stattdessen musste ich auf Ersatzfarben zugreifen. Ich denke die Wigs sehen trotzdem süß aus, bin mir aber nicht so sicher, ob meine Mädels die jetzt wirklich als Standardwigs behalten werden. Zum einen wäre da die lilane Wig für Daisy: Purple wig for Daisy Die Idee für diese Wig kam durch Fairylands default Face-up, bei der sie Mari tatsächlich lilane Augenbrauen verpasst haben. Leider könnt ihr die auf dem Bild nicht erkennen, aber tatsächlich passt diese Wig jetzt farblich wunderbar zu den Augenbrauen. (Dafür wieder weniger zu den sehr hellen Wimpern :/. Und irgendwie habe ich mich in der Zwischenzeit auch sehr stark an die blonde Daisy gewöhnt, obwohl ich nach wie vor noch finde, dass ihre Originalwig eine Katastrophe ist. Naja gut, ich werde probieren diese Wig ein bisschen zu ...
