Projects: In Progess or Ideas? What'choo Workin' On?

Save your old dryer sheets to use for interfacing on doll clothes. They are thinner and lighter than any interfacing you can buy.

You always have the most interesting suggestion.

Well, I hear that dried out wet wipes from the bottom of the container make great doll wig caps.

I finally got a chance to go through some of the Monster High dolls that finally reappeared after like 4 years. I have a LOT of glue hair syndrome to fix when I eventually get time off. Other than that, they're in amazing shape. I'm so glad I wrapped everyone individually in tissue paper. The tissue paper absorbed the glue that would have otherwise ended up on the other dolls. I'll try to eventually post some pictures.

Got an unseasonably warm day before the temperature is set to drop 40+ degrees, so I started working on some doll popsicles!



I used a technique from My Froggy Stuff, so it's just hot glue and alcohol markers. They're a little janky, but not bad for a first go.

I like to imagine the flavors are as follows: grape, banana, lemon-lime, watermelon, strawberry, blue raspberry, cherry, orange, green apple.

Anybody got any suggestions for other colors/flavors?

Being wrinkled makes them look like popsicles that were bought in liquid form or partially defrosted on the way home then got shoved wherever they could fit in the freezer There's always the weirdly bent one that you have no idea how it got that way.

The weirdly bent ones were always the best. Any time my grandparents would say, "You only need one!" I'd always be like, "But this one is all messed up, so it shouldn't count!" Yeah, my grandfather couldn't tell me no when I'd pout my lip and bat my eyes at him.

Y'all, pray for me, I'm going to start an inventory of my doll stuff so I can remember what boxes have what in them. With a little luck, I'll be finished by spring. @-@

After 25 years, my sister and I are falling in love with ‘Sailor Moon’ all over again! It was our first anime series and we were obsessed with it then, and again now! In particular, the Three Lights! (Taiki-san is my favorite and Seiya is my sister’s!)

I found new 1/6 resin kits of them were sculpted a few years ago and I ordered them as soon as I saw them! (Star Maker, Pluto, Star Fighter, Uranus, Star Healer, Neptune)

They are GORGEOUS! I’m having a ball—painting and assembling these models! They are so well made, and easy to work with!!!!

It’s a shame they aren’t released all at the same time, so I’m having to work on them one at a time and ‘guesstimate’ where to post them on their bases to leave room for their partners. (I got the kit of Maker in January, then Uranus in February. I expect Healer in April, then Neptune in May. Fighter is scheduled for July/August and poor Pluto isn't even on the release list yet!!! I guess my Maker model will have to wait a long while for her to come!)

Anyway, they are coming out amazingly! These are truly the best resin models of the Senshi ever produced! They look like they stepped right off the screen!

Hot Topic and Hobby Lobby are places I've seen sailor stuff. HL carries some model kits.

Those figure look so good! @o@
