Ayida got a new body upgrade! A Dollshe Amanda Beauty body I dyed to match. It fit her really nicely, and is an awesome poser! If anyone knows what heels fit Dollshe girl heel legs, please let me know! Even Iplehouse was too small… (edit: besides SartoriaJ!)

BJD Bralette Sewing process

Here is my short story about sewing the bralette for Iplehouse EID girl. Hope, it will be helpful somehow. <_<

At first I made pattern basis with food film. Later I moved it to the paper and tried “test bralette” from the “test fabric”.

For real bralette I used tulle fabric and lace trim.

Here is the result. ^_^ If you have any questions, please, welcome!

i'm reshelling paige from a supia lina to a dollstown soi. just her head, maybe eventually her body if the supia/dollstown hybrid doesn't work for me. the soi sculpt is much better suited to paige, it looks almost exactly like the sim that she started out as.

and just the act of ordering the head has gotten me enthused about dolls for the first time in so long. i'm sewing again and buying clothes and thinking of making a new wig for zaida and it's making me feel amazing. i've had a really hard few months but i think this might be starting to pull me out of my anxiety/depression funk.

I adore her hair, how’d you do that!?

[cosmomoore]

In the event they don’t see your question, a very similar texture can be achieved by just unraveling yarn. Not to the degree of the brushed yarn wigs, literally just unraveling yarn will produce really cute textured strands that look very similar to this. I have not made a wig out of it yet, but I plan to one day!

[official-johnsonsbaby]

(( OOC: Hi there! Thank you for your comments! I made her hair using yarn, yeah. I used this one in the pics below… (I’m from Brazil, so I’m not sure if this kind of stuff is available internationally as well), but the label’s back says it’s some yarn of the “TEX739″ type and it’s about 85% acrylic. But what Cosmomoore says it’s very true. You can achieve similar effect by just unraveling regular yarn. It retains some “curly” shape after you separate the threads. I hope it helps! ))

Are you guys tired of Zein yet?

Miss Naomi got an amazingly awesome outfit from the wonderful @fishcake2012 a while back, and life happened and I just now got a chance to photograph it!

Fishcake is incredible modest, but I am really amazed by all the little details! I kind of rushed through these, and my do another shoot to show the rest of the skirt and shoes…

How do you give your doll a septum piercing?

Well since there isn’t usually enough space actually drill into the septum of a doll’s nose, your best bet would be glue or paint. The only really good place to drill piercings is the ears.

You can glue a thin ring (or wire), or micro-beads, depending on the look you want, to the sides of the septum, in the nostril. Any pva glue, such as Elmers, or Mod Podge, will work. You can also try to use some paint, built up in layers, or puff/3d paint to achieve a similar look.

All of my doll’s “piercings” are glued straight on to the faceup. I handle my dolls a little rough so I put a bit of extra glue around the sides just to be sure it holds.

My Impldoll Vanessa’s septum piercing is just a “metallic” (actually plastic) spacer bead which has a wedge filed out of it so it fits between her nostrils. It fits so perfectly that it doesn’t need any glue at all.
