Quick craft: Easy Holiday decor for dolls

Happy Holidays my dear dolly-friends! Can you believe the year is almost over? 

As you know, this year I've been focusing on making videos for my YouTube channel, mostly artwork. I usually go with the flow and do whatever I feel like doing in that moment, not really thinking if it fits the season. But this time I was planning in advance the last videos, and I thought it would be a great idea to make something Christmas-themed for December.

 

Those who have been around here for years might remember a post I did back in 2021 titled Quick craft: letter decor. On said post I made a "Fall" sign and mentioned that I would love to do something similar for Christmas. So now, 4 years later, as I thought on what to do for the video, I found the perfect opportunity. Below you can find the video, but if it doesn't work, you can follow this link.

Since this is such an easy craft, I decided to add an extra quick craft so I could make a longer video. I've just used a packet of little wooden decor I found years ago at Casa. This is meant to be spread on the table for decor. I believe since I bought it, Casa went bankrupt, but I'm sure you can find something similar at any store that carries Holiday decor. This, for example, is from Amazon. 

I'm quite happy because I managed to complete my goal of uploading 12 videos in 2025, so I currently have a total of 18 long-format videos. The other goal that I had was to reach 100 subscribers before December 31st, and I'm happy to report that I'm currently sitting at over 110. Next year I would love to keep making videos for the channel; however with the new job I don't have as much time, so I won't be able to post so regularly. But I don't want to give up on either my channel or the blog, so I'll do my best. 

Around a month ago I started my new job, and so far I'm very happy with it. It has taken me a bit to adapt to the new situation, with the new schedule and everything, but I'm getting used to it. The job itself is also something new that I had never done before, but it's an interesting challenge. I was so unhappy at my previous job, feeling underappreciated and not being able to grow professionally, that this change feels really like fresh air.

Before finishing this post, I would like to wish everyone of you a very happy holiday season, regardless of what you celebrate. Hoping 2026 brings you health and positive experiences. Thank you so much for being a part of this during 2025 and longer. Your support really doesn't go unoticed. 

 See you as soon as possible

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 ...

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!
