Mister Gravity

Here for the first time - and for the last time as I took this photo for his sale post. Nifty and personal head with lots of character, but unfortunately all too small to work with my crew :(

If someone wants to give him a good home, let me know! He is white-skinned, pinky white to be exact, quite small and realistic and a charming fellow. Aria is quitting so you're not able to order him anymore.

And what's an update without my animal hats? xP This one's a gift for my friend, but I made a similar one, just with kitty ears, for Griselda. Yes, mint again. I'm all for mint these days, for my dolls and for myself! Myself, I've purchased mint skinny jeans, several nail polishes and am even pondering a mint-coloured wig. Yes, for myself. Spring's really coming :D

Mint chocolate's my favourite

I finished a small amigurumi bear for my dolls yesterday:

The pattern is from here, easy to follow and very simple. I wanted a mint chocolate theme. The yarn is from Estonia, I had to stock it up because it's just the perfect shade, and I want to knit more mint stuff for the dolls. I purchased a bunny pattern too from a different seller (I cannot crochet without patterns at all, I don't know why it's so hard :D), so it will be my next project. Please also notice Unni's new great hair from Formydoll. I love their vintage green!

Ehm, nothing new grand here. My Gravity from Aria arrived, but I had to order a new head for him right away. Awesome sculpt, yeah, but the head is t-i-n-y. It's MSD-sized, only the face is longer. I might be able to live with that, but his character is supposed to be Niko's brother, and Niko is CP's Dreaming Shiwoo...yep, those two just don't work together, and there is no way they'll look anyway related xD Actually none of my SD-sized dolls look like they'd be in scale with him :B Luckily I found another head which is larger and should work with his body, so we'll see, we'll see...

Sometimes I wish I didn't care about doll backgrounds, stories and characters so much xD Oh well, live and learn!

On Thursday I visited Estonia's craft stores again and came back with stuff. We'll visit them again in few weeks. I'm planning to purchase tons of lace that time, this time I mostly bought sequins and embroidery threads. And lace, of course, but not as much.

But where to get time and inspiration to actually do something with all the stuff I buy? :D

Two of a kind

I did some doll photography with my girlfriend Illves this morning, and here's my share of photos! The dolls are my Meital and her Jericho

Yep, their relationship used to be rather complicated and full of strange emotions. They didn't have a proper relationship - Jericho would secretly love and worship Meital, and Meital being a simple and innocent girl just didn't realize it and considered Jerri her best friend. But then all kinds of things happened, Jericho found his true love from a surprising direction and these days these two are just best friends, two of a kind. Despite their different looks, they are very much the same, two innocent and fluffheaded angels <3

Hope you liked the photos!

Sunday's sunlight

As I had to dig out some photography equipment anyway to take some off-topic photos, I decided to snap some pics of my big dolls. Meital is my favourite model, she never fails to look amazingly pretty

Sugarfairys and pasteldust

Here are some snaps from my latest photoshoot with my Pocketfairy twins, since Gretel (Minimay) finally recieved her proper eyes and wig. Their theme is not surprisingly pastel colours, apparently. I've been very inspired by dreamy kei style lately so I think they'll get accessories and clothes following that style. You can already spot some of my Little Twin Stars Re-ments there, and I spotted some more LTS stuff in H&M's kids' department so...

Oh sweet Estonia

I visited Tallinn yesterday with Xaya and our spouses. Our idea was to check out their local craft stores, and oh boy, oh boy *_* Well, the photo tells it all. The selection was superb, and the prices were great, so I bought a ton of stuff, especially mohair yarn skeins :3 The fabrics were not much cheaper than in Finland, but everything else, especially laces, beads, sequins...my muscles still hurt from dragging all that back home, but so worth of it! Can you maybe spot what's my favourite colour these days? ;)

Yeah, it's mint green. We're already planning the next trip since I ran out of space and couldn't concentrate on their laces very well. And now just need to think what to do with all this stuff!

Jos joku kaipailee neuvoja miten noihin aarreaittoihin pääsee Tallinnassa niin kysellä saa :) Kävelymatkan päässä keskustasta löytyy Tarton maantien varrelta kolme isoa kauppaa, joista etenkin Karnalüks on melkoinen paikka.

Demonista aktiviteettia koko rahalla! (A Finnish photostory)

Hey my Finnish readers, this post is only for you ;3
