Doll Sweater Dress from Gloves

I'm always looking for a way to make fast and easy doll clothes. Previously I made sweater dresses for Barbie-sized dolls out of gloves.

I've also made doll sweaters from socks.

This time I made Dena a sweater dress from a pair of $1 gloves.

It was super fast and easy. I simply cut off the two center fingers and stitched a seam on the wrong side to be able to cut off the thumb.  For the remaining two fingers I cut off the ends to serve as sleeves. Instead of hemming the "sleeves" I roll them to make a cuff. By hand I stitched a narrow hem for the neck. Give it a try!

Graphic Tee shirts

I've been wanting top try my hand at making Graphic T-shirts for my dolls and yesterday was the day. I decided to make them for my guys first because I already had a t-shirt pattern that fits them well. After capturing images of my favorite teams and sports in Michigan, we gathered at the man cave for a photoshoot.

 

I love how them look and can't wait to get started on Graphic T's for the girls!

A New Doll and Playset

I used a gift card I've had since July to purchase a new doll and playset. She's a Grace from the Style line. She also has real lashes and the bending ankles allowing her to wear flats or heels.

While I really like the Gloria furniture, what I don't like is that the seats are always a little too low for Barbie dolls. This set was only $8.99  which I thought was very reasonable. I'm am sorry that Dena is too wide to be able to enjoy it.

Nikki Repaints

I've been trying my hand at repaints. After the successful repaint of Dena I decided to try repainting a few Nikki's. I have about five in my collections and am quite sick of her face.

From L to R...a partial repaint, full repaint because of wonky original eyes and untouched. What do you think. Thumbs up or thumbs down?

Boy Will Be Boys

I made this video very early in the summer but wasn't able  to upload it until today. I'll be adding regular doll videos now that I've figured out what the problem was. Hope you enjoy this.

Saturday Style

This is Miss Dena's Saturday look. Animal print and dark glasses add mystery to an otherwise ho-hum weekend.
