Fairyland Feeple 65

I have recently treated myself to a new BJD. A Feeple 65 from Fairyland http://dollfairyland.com/shop/step1.php?number=760

This is the first 65cm ball jointed doll I have bought.  She was a bit daunting at first opening the box and lifting this large and heavy specimen of dollery.  But after I had "played" with for a while and discovered her marvelous ability to pose I soon over came any trepidation I had.

The default eyes she came with were red which I am not too keen on (I have used a red eye reduction in the picture above) and I realised that I did not have a wig to fit. I have ordered some new ones from Leekeworld I was in time to order their Blind Wig Sale but they only had fantasy colours left.  So I might be pleasantly surprised or miffed!

In the meantime I am using a wig that is too small so I have cut a slit in the back and held it on with a piece of ribbon.  She does not look very elegant from the back, bald in fact but from the front I think it gives her a rather wild and exotic look.

Victorian Style Combinations


I then set too making her some new outfits.

Here is a selection of photos of them.

A couple of pairs of Victorian style combinations with plenty of lace and ribbons.

A gypsy outfit to make her look wild and sultry.

And finally a "Wiggle" Dress.

Hope you like them.

Lace BJD Dresses

I Love Lace!

Been busy working on some new dresses. As I love working with lace I thought I would give all the girls new dresses.

They all have crocheted lacy tops made from a nice silky cotton with a picot edge. Then the skirts were made from various pieces of lace and pleated voile materials.

They were great to make separately but when I put them all together for a group photograph I was pleased with the results.

First a dress for Elin an Iplehouse BID Doll

Then a similar one for Hana my Blue Fairy Doll 

Then finally a more sophisticated version for older "Sis" Dream of Doll Leya

So no one left out no one feeling jealous......... well perhaps just one......ME!

                                                             

New BJD Dresses

New BJD Dresses

I have been busy putting together some new looks for my Dream of Doll girl Leya.

A light frothy number made of voile and with a shawl made from a piece of antique lace material and vintage lace edging.

 

A couple of quaint dresses and half bonnets made from "tea dyed" cotton with matching dyed lace.

New Blue Fairy Clothes

Romper Suits for Hana a Blue Fairy Shiny Fairy BJD Doll

Still a few more sunny days of summer to look forward to. So have made a couple of breezy little outfits for Hana my Blue Fair, Shiny Fairy.  No sure what I can call them? They have a crochet bodice which is attached to cut off pants. So "Rompers?" or could I use a good old fashions name like "Sunsuit?"

First one in blue with a blue floral to match. I love making these little hats they are bit of a fiddle but I like the way they come out. I did make them for my Iplehouse Elin so maybe these are a tad big for this doll?

Then thought the outfit needed something to give it a bit of a lift so added a necklace made out of some small wooded beads. Seemed to do the trick.
