Sunday upload: Tom


 


...Tom likes to collect stones...
 

...so much that he forgets to pull up his pants sometimes....
 

...and hides them in his jeans pockets...

....can't resist to climb on each and every tree...

....and has the best time sitting on top of them...

...is a very lively and adventurous little guy....

...is hard to convince to go to sleep...
 
....will always be the first wide awake in the morning....

 ...with a big smile on his face...
 
 
 
Tom is a 45cm RTG doll with apricot skin, dark brown felted eyes and golden Wendsleydale locks crocheted into a wig. He has a bellybutton and a bum and can sit unaided. He travels to his new home dressed with undies, star shirt, jeans overall, socks and a knitted jacket. And of course he brings his pyjama.
Find more info about how my dolls are made here.
 
Tom will be available on my etsy shop or via vivi-rosalie@web.de this Sunday, 30th of March at 7pm EST for 275€. (It's always difficult to find a good time for uploads - so if the time is not feasable for you please use the email option).

Ready to go: Tom

This is Tom.
He just got a hair cut and is still in his pyjama -
waiting to get dressed...
 
 
Hm, he doesn't like waiting a lot - and neither do I!
Everything is just way too slow today:
hands, sewing machine, knitting needles...or is it because ideas and thoughts spin around in my head just too fast?
I'm sure you know what I mean...
 
Nevermind - Tom is my next RTG doll
and
will be available sometime next week in my etsy shop.
More pictures will follow as soon as he got dressed...

work in progress

 
no clothes yet and he still needs a bellybutton, bum and hair but I couldn't resist to show you a sneak peek of
Nick...
 
 
 
can't wait to see him with dark brown curls.
 
He is a very special custom for someone I've been knowing almost all my life. We were best friends a long, long time ago but as time went by we somehow lost sight of each other - but now it is great to have her back....

A buddy for Johan

boys need dolls, too - clearly.
They need buddies to cuddle with, talk to and care for. So here is my first boy ....

...loves his knitted beanie...


 
...and all kinds of stars... 


 
 
...cuddles with a David Fussenegger blanket...
 
 




...and enjoys a few moments outside after staring out the window and waiting for the rain to stop...






Little Linus is a custom for Johan whose mother was smart enough to recognize his need for a buddy very early. This is what I love about customs - they open my eyes ( and my heart as well!). It's been my pleasure to make this doll for Johan who is such a sunshine!

Ready to play: Mona & Stella

These are my two girls for my first upload on
on hyenacart
 
 

This is MONA





Mona is a girlie girl, loves chasing butterflies and everything in pink. So no surprise she will bring a pink butterfly to her new home. She is 45cm tall and  made with apricot colored Swiss trikot. Her felted eyes are deep brown and round shaped and her limbs are slightly curved. She has a bellybutton, a sweet little bum with dimples and can sit unaided. Her locks in different shades of pink and red also reflect her passion for color - they are made of hand-dyed Teeswater locks made into a wig.
She wears undies (not shown on the picture) a blue and white cotton dress , pink pants and blue boots.
 
 
 
 and here is STELLA







Cute little Stella is a 30cm blonde baby with light blue felted eyes. Her skin is made with apricot colored Swiss trikot and her hair is made of DollyMo yarn crocheted into a wig (a special technique ensures that the mohair strands appear on the outside of the cap only). She has a bellybutton, a sweet little bum and can sit unaided. Since she is still a baby her clothes are cosy and easy to wear. Of course she wears diapers (not shown on the picture), a red and white striped jersey dress with matching pants and a brown knitted dress with a matching hair ribbon.  Since she likes dressing up a bit she brings a second pair of hair ribbons and a  red barrette.

I am so excited to be their guest!

spring before spring

We should shovel snow and grumble about it, we should press our nose against the window and count snowflakes falling to the ground, we should admire beautiful ice crystals shining in the sun and endless white carpets...
 
but we can't  - not yet.
Instead look what I found!
 
First signs of spring before spring. Don't get me wrong - I love the blossoms and trees turning green again and the day I don't have to wear a coat anymore is one of the most precious ones for me...BUT...this is just not the right time!
But watch out carefully and cover up you flower buds:
winter wonderland will come around....
