Hey guys! It’s been a crazy month. I am back in San Diego and unfortunately, I have no time to rest. I am keeping this tumblr but at the moment, nothing major is happening with my life and I find Instagram much easier. Please follow me here --> https://www.instagram.com/gelatobabyhandmade/

Hey guys!! Sorry I've been away for a while. To be honest, I have been using instagram a lot lately. It's an easier platform to use when I'm sharing photos of WIP, memes and comments! I'm gelatobabyhandmade over there if anyone wants to follow me there!! I will still use tumblr for announcements and blog type stuff.

I love the hell outta this fabric. Where did you find it?

[gelatobaby]

I found it in Joanns but it was months ago.

Hi guys!! New casual items have been added to my shop. They are perfect to mix and match and they are available in slim MSD and Iplehouse JID sizes.  Lots of fabrics and styles to choose from so take a look! Plus, enjoy free gifts when you make a $45+ purchase!

Second successful day of pattern making!! Sailor tops/uniforms were always on my bucket list. I’m happy to finally accomplish it! 

Meanwhile, I accidentally used muslin (I thought it was my beige fabric) but it was a test piece anyway.

Working on some patterns for Mini Viva (Iple Cordelia). I’ve been drafting ruffle tops, sailor uniforms and shorts for her. Would anyone be interested in cute and girly casuals for JID girls?? 

[gelatobaby]

My Viva army is almost complete ^ 3 ^

Most of the MSD clothes I’ve made are way too small for Mini but the shoes that never fit my other girls fit good. It’s a little spacey but some putty would help. Meanwhile Damien’s size fit Biba. I just have to adjust it but otherwise I don’t have to start brand new. Also the Rilakkuma re-ment set works good for Biba! I have super motivation to make dioramas now. She needs her princess bedroom XD

AHHHHHH!!!! I sent myself the best care package! Made it just in time for my birthday too (Aug 24th). Yay, I'm so excited! Box opening pics coming soon!

Today was the last day to purchase Granado Enoch and as soon as I purchased him, someone put an offer on my Pancho! It must be fate XD

Yeah, I feel as though I’m not bonding with Pancho fully because I have yet to figure out his character. Besides, he was a little too skinny. As soon as Enoch as released, my heart jumped! I was like, yes this is it! I will hybrid him ^^

So many boys! I got an Iplehouse Eric, Granado Uranus on Evol, Dollshe Ray Lewis and now, Enoch. I’m so excited to get them all together :D

Since I've got back from HK, I have been working on new designs and patterns for the DZ body. It's a little thicker than the DC body so I have to remake my patterns for it. Anyway, I'll be taking a short break before opening my shop again so I cab make new stuff and finish my current orders.

[gelatobaby]

Wooohoo!! My Iplehouse order shipped! It'll still be a while till it actually gets here. Their eyes and wigs will also take a while but hopefully, soon!! I can't wait to sew for these sizes!

Body comparison between Dollzone B12 and Doll Chateau kbody01 body. Damien is moving from the DC to the DZ, so she will be shorter and more ‘fuller’ and less of a thigh gap. I like those cute legs and the fact the feet isn’t just ‘long’. I’m not sure if I like how ‘busty’ she is compared to the DC body... I’ll just have to get used to it. 

It’s gonna be an obvious change but I think it’ll work out well. She’s going to need a new wardrobe which means lots of redoing patterns! I’ll be keeping the DC body for a while so I can continue to make slim MSD clothing (but eventually I’ll have to sell it so I can get older!Damien).
