"I´ll tell a bit about me. I started customizing these amazing dolls in September 2011 after l saw one of them on the net. I fell in love and l started to look "who" was that amazing doll. They made me smile and l got good feelings in a difficult moment of my life, so l decided to bring one of them to my life. They helped me a lot." Monica
It's Blond Power!! ... :D
Marta is currently looking for love...anyone out there??
Skull Shores succeeds "Gloom Beach". Lagoona Blue, Gillington "Gil" Webber, Ghoulia Yelps, Abbey Bominable are were released in late October, 2011 and Draculaura was released in mid January, 2012.
During mid 2012 were released other dolls of the "Skull Shores" serie: a special promotion and a 5-pack exclusive to Target.
previous release - next release
Ghoulia was later repackaged in a Skull Shores Target exclusive 5-pack. Gil is the first male doll in this franchise to have articulated wrists. These dolls were originally produced with the older, elastic-strung leg design, while later runs were updated to feature the plastic hip joints the dolls use currently. Gil was discontinued and replaced in this assortment with Draculaura in January of 2012, presumably due to low sales of prior male dolls in this franchise at the time of his release.
Hi Sara! :) ...you started customizing Blythe on 2009, if I'm not wrong,..and you created..how many of them??
Yes, it's been 4 years working as a customizer and I've created 95 dolls so far.

Between all of your customs do you have a favourite one that it's still in your heart??
I have some favorites because they came up particularly expressive, naive or sweet. I had a crush on Regaliz, Moth, Jengibre, Violeta, Ezra, Kiwi… but mainly Biscotte, because she makes me smile and looks like a very young little girl. In my collection I have two dolls that I eventually couldn't sell: Mandarina and Plum, and I'm totally in love with them.

If I look at your work I can see that your style is slowly changing over the time. Your dollies are now more childish and innocent (with a lot of freckles!! Love freckles!! :D).. Where do you see your style evolving in the future? Is it something that is influenced by your customers requests?
Custom Blythes have been through a particular change, generally speaking: they're much more realistic (human-like) now than they were when I started. I think that's because we've improved our skills and dolls are asking for more. I'm always eager to get new ideas, new expressions, new make-ups in order to progress and live each doll as she was the first one. I don't want to get bored! Frankly, I can't see my future style, I'm kind of an improviser. My dolls features are linked to my present life, what I feel at that precise moment. I'm not very good at future plans, and it's ok for me: carpe diem!

If you could choose anything, partnership with other customizers, different kind of dolls,..anything,...which one will be your secret whish that you would love to work on?
One thing I've always had in mind is working on a traveller girl to be on a permanent vacation all over the world, visiting the photographers whose work I love. There's nothing more exciting and touching than seeing your own creations through other artists' eyes.

"Rebeca Cano is creative of tales where each doll is the protagonist character. She give them meaning, soul and life through the expression, clothing, props, scenery and photography. Each piece is created full of symbolism to the idea that conceived it, as well as subtle religious references, dreamlike and poetic."
