My Scene Barbie Wave 1

I got this My Scene Barbie Wave 1 head in a condition suggesting an unexpected attack of an overenthusiastic, but poorly experienced hairdresser. She probably requires a reroot, but since there are few things that I hate more, I decided to give it a chance and try to save her with a new hairdo alone.


I did what I could, it looks better from the back, but I managed to improve her looks enough to want to keep her.


I gave her a spare Fashion Fever body.


She's presenting my sewing corner.

A rare moment when my usual mess is under control.

Mermaid Kayla

A friend remembered that I wanted a redhead mermaid Kayla and kept her for me, when he found her in a thrift store. He packed her in this truly amazing box and gave to me as a surprise. It's been ages since I got a doll as a surprise gift!


I've been looking for this Kayla doll for ages. Her face and hair is perfect, exactly to my liking, but as much as I love mermaids, I absolutely hate permanent tails, although construction of this particular one is interesting. It is covered with soft rubber with a joint in the middle, so it moves quite nicely.


I got a Fashionistas body for her immediately, but got stuck and cannot think of a style for her. Well, I will probably wake up one day and know what to do with her.


I just wanted to say this once again: I love this doll, thank you, thank you, thank you! :D

Waiting for THE doll - shoes

Nice basic shoes for a BJD...
 I'm not buying shoes for my BJD, I can make some decent shoes myself, right? Well, maybe just one pair, a basic one to start with...

...can go with a bow.
But in the same shop they had these really cute and relatively cheap sneakers. They didn't have human sizes, so a doll sized pair had to suffice.

Did I mention that I love cute patterns on sneakers?
And finally I stumbled upon *really accidentally* this red pair. You know, I have this thing about red shoes...

Some people sinned for a red apple. This is my temptation.

I really try not to think that my Asa comes also with high heel feet... Thankfully she has an unusual foot size and it is quite difficult to find a pair that would fit her. Don't tell me if I'm wrong. ;)
