NYW Creations

My first try at a shopping cart...A little off...just like me*,*

Got from Amazon 2 weeks ago...still nothing. Waiting for inspiration to strike :-D

This fashionista was only $2. I don't think she was ever played with. My 6 yo granddaughter asked my "why is she so chunky?" I said because she's pretty that way. But it kinda explains to me why these in up in the thrift so often...Moms love them, kids want "Barbie", after all she can be whatever you want her to be :-D-just my theory *,* I didn't know who this beauty was until I posted her on Instagram, and she was identified as Lonnie, daughter of Mulan-from Disney Descendants. She has such a unique look to me. Her feet are huge, but can wear some of those odd shoes we got from Amazon. And her hands are very soft rubber...I'm guessing. I just love her uniqueness.

 I'm working on her lab and her name...so many ideas for her. I love this doll and this play set. My plan is to paint it metallic silver. :-D I think the lab will expand over time...hopefully *,*

Good stuff at Tuesday Morning *,*

I love the musician set...Amazon gets my money way too easily :-D

 We ended up with 51 pairs of shoes.Only 9 pairs didn't fit any feet that we own and we tried everyone from Chelsea to Curvy.Classic to Vintage. Plus it was fun for the grands-a real Cinderella good time:-D I can always use them in a shoe store display.

I'm getting better :-)

  I'm happy with her:-D Even her lip color change wasn't too bad for a change. Even though I'm really happy with the way this wig came out, it was more work than I anticipated. I watched a human size wig tutorial by a You Tuber named fabulasityisme. Hers was the easiest for me to follow. From my own experience I learned a few things for next time I try this: 1. use real glue. Hot glue is very unforgiving. 2. use less glue on the wefts and more to apply them to the wig cap. 3. TAKE YOUR TIME:-D I have to remind myself to take my time, it's not a race...it's a process... 4. learn from my mistakes and don't make the same ones next time. *,* 

When I received Fashionista #77, I loved her face, but hated that hair. It reminded me of the cheap .99 Kanekalon you put in your little girls hair over the summer so that she can take swimming lessons without messing up the good braids you're going to put in when school start:-D It was super straight and very stiff. So BIG CHOP-but look at that beautiful face*,* beginning of a wig cap I sacrificed one of my old wigs for this. Good thing I did. Even doll wigs take a lot of hair, time and patience.

I had never seen one in a store in my area until today. A new hobby/collectible store opened near me and I just happened to see it while out for a walk-Yeah Fitness :-D  anyway her box says July 2013 and she was only $6.51-awesome deal. work it gurl :-D very similar body type, smaller waist ,rounder hips-but not "curvy". love that knee articulation*,* 

If she had been any taller her neck would have been broken. She does have a small flaw in her blouse, but still worth $7...such a deal *,* Had to have these boots... and this face...Gorgeous!
