Current project plan for summer: A purple tiefling doll because one throwaway idea has turned into a full blown character because of course it has.

What I'd tell you to do is take some spare stretch fabric, especially stretch velvet for this step, drape it on the doll and get your basic shape. Take it off the doll then trace around it and neaten it up.


Thank you for the suggestion!

That's how I got my primary character, who is a female version of the Transformer named Blackout from the first live action movie. I meant to play her once for a joke. She's been with me nearly twenty years.

I tried linking one of my adopted click pets here, but the board wouldn't let me. :/

I don't even play DnD, but I've fallen down a rabbit hole (because of course I did), and now Anara has taken up residence in my brain along with all the other little people living in there.

After spending a week struggling to make Rainbow High doll swimsuits, I thought I would need a break from dolls, but I've been making stuff for my two little BFF dolls and having a great time! Their faces are so freaking adorable, I even love to look at them. I haven't been this inspired since Rainbow High came out in summer of 2020.

Pulled a Miley Cyrus and bought myself Mother's Day flowers. Why? Because they're roses, and I plan to try to get them to sprout roots.

I did that with a sweet potato butt. The vine is beautiful.

I really hope it works out. I love roses.

A miniature rose bush came with our current place. Didn't know that's what it was until it started blooming but after wanting some all century we finally have them. The buds start out a warm reddish color, bloom peach, and turn white as they dry out.

What color did you get?
