Doll Selfies

Hello my dear doll lovers. What you've been up to?

 I'm sorry I don't post on this blog very often. I always promise myself that I'll take it more seriously, but between my studies and my job I don't have much time to craft and take doll pics. Furthermore, Mister Monster and I are finally moving together and as the house is quite old we need to give the house a whole makeover, so I'm spending all my spare time painting the walls and looking for new furniture. 

 Despite not having much time, we made an effort to enter My Froggy Stuff's  "Doll  Selfies" contest  in order to win Ever After High's Cedar Wood. We didn't win, but sure we had a lot of fun taking the pics. Here are some of them.

And this is the pic I sent to the contest

They make such a nice couple, don't they?
I'm also currently working on a paper mache stairs to display all my dolls  for a group picture. When my doll collection reached 20 dolls, I tried to take one, using books and old tapes so the ghouls on the back could appear on the picture. This was the result:

Poor Toralei, she's hidden behind Jane's updo
See? Despite being on a book some dolls don't show properly on the picture. I promise to take a better picture as soon as I finish my doll display stairs. I should also mention that after this picture was taken 3 new ghouls have joined the family: 13 Wishes Gigi Grant, Scaremester Jinafire Long and Slo Moe (see pictures above).

What do you think of my collection? I have an always increasing whislist, there are such beautiful dolls and not so much money.

 That's all for now. I'll try to post soon with new crafts. 

Update 09/09/15: I actually did another doll selfie post, check it out here

      Hi Mia Angelica. I'm a little busy right now and I'm not taking many pictures of my dolls, but as soon as I can, I'll take that Draculaura and Ghoulia selfie. Unfortunately,at the moment I don't own a Clawd, so it won't be possible to take a selfie of him and Draculaura.
      Thanks for stopping by.

How to make a doll TV that "works"

Image
Hi again! It's just taken me over a month to write a new post. I've been keeping myself busy: I'm doing an online marketing course, Mr. Monster and I are trying to do some sport, so I can't quite find time in my spare time for blogging. Also, my laptop crashed again and I have to borrow Mr. Monster's. The other reason why it took me so long is that I wanted to bring you something more creative than another doll review. So, if I can't find the time to sit down and write, I even have less time to craft. So, as you may have guessed by the title, today I'm going to show you how to do a doll TV in which you can change what's on the screen. I actually came up with this idea a couple of years ago and I was inspired by I toy that I had as a child. However, I never found the time or the patience to work on it until now. So, if you are curious to see how I did it, just keep reading.

Retro Review: Barbie Travelin' House playset (1995)

Image
Hi again, doll lovers! How is your summer going so far? Jeez, this summer is keeping me busy. Our house makeover is finally taking off. We've been busy meeting with the contractor and choosing the materials. At first I was quite frustrated because I didn't see any progress, but now I finally see it moving, slowly but steady. Also, both Mr. Monster and I got sick a couple of weeks ago, which didn't leave with much time left to play with dolls. Anyway, I'm finally here with a new blog post. A while back Barb posted on her blog about a doll she had as child. On that post, I told her about this playset and I thought it would be interesting to show it to you guys. Also, Barb, I hope you don't mind that I've been mentioning you like in 4 out of 5 blog posts lately. I hope you guys find it interesting, both if you had this as a child or if you are just curious about Barbie playsets. Let's start!

Let's discover some new blogs!

Hi again. Hope you're all doing well.  In some of my last posts I wrote that some of the people I used to follow on blogger weren't active anymore. So many of you agreed that blogger isn't what it used to be, and that it seems quieter now. I've been thinking about this for a few days now, and I've came up with an idea to try to find more active bloggers and make this a little bit more fun. The idea is pretty simple. I've listed down below a few of my favourite doll related blogs. I invite you all to follow them and leave me some of your favourites in the comment section . Then, if you feel like doing so, copy this image and make a blog post sharing your favourite blogs and invite your readers to do the same thing. Hopefully that way we will find new interesting blogs. Here are some of my favourite blogs: Atelierni Shasha: You probably know her for her beautiful Etsy store (which I highly recommend), but she also has a very interesting blog. She hasn't been ...
