Rosie's Doll Diary

[rosiesdolldiary]

My Hannah found a home!! She is going to be shipped there with her custom winter outfit! ❤ This was my first outfit commission, I was very afraid I’ll mess it up bad, I really enjoyed the challenge! I’m so grateful for the customer for their trust!

So now I'm sick and I used this opportunity to entertain myself by at last making the faceup for my recast bjd Kiki who was waiting for about a year for it. ❤

Another porcelain doll remake!

She is such a beautiful mold, her head even rotates! I think she was sawn onto a different body then hers because without the clothes it looked very off, very mysterious who she really is to be honest.

I made her eyes, this pair was the second attempt, the first one turned out awful haha... still learning. I messed up her lips’ paint a bit when putting on the varnish sadly, and she also has a bit of a crack under her nose, I think I bought her like that already.

Just finished her dress! 🎀

Jolina balerina doll repaint! I wanted to try painting eyes, it's really hard! but it was fun.

[rosiesdolldiary]

So I decided to take on a challenge with this girl, I chose her from a bunch because I found her kind of the creepiest, and she turned out to be a lower quality mold too (she hardly has ears haha). I’m pretty sure she is still kinda creepy after the makeover but I tried haha. I love love her outfit though! 

It’s weird because her hair and clothes are in very good condition like really good! But her body almost wants to come apart so I’ll have to sew her up properly, I just don’t get it.

I just finished her dress! ❤ I'm so happy it fits her so well, I tried cutting a different shape I've seen before and it worked so much better! Also found this fabric at my last shopping, I'm so happy I bought it, I love the pattern! Only waiting on her shoes and she can get up in my shop!

Finally, I gathered all my courage and painted a Paola Reina doll! I made her eyes too, though I messed them up a bit.

Hi! I've been really wanting to try repainting porcelain dolls! I have a few already and finally had the time to try it out! You can see the before-after! I'm so happy I could save her hair, it looked to be in a worse state than it actually was. I wonder if anyone is interested in porcelain dolls nowadays, I think they are very pretty, just a bit old-fashioned but holding a lot of potential! She came with beautiful clothes so I'm debating whether to make different ones for her or not...

Fairy is finished! ❤

She is available in my shop (sold) : https://www.etsy.com/shop/rosiesdollshop?ref=seller-platform-mcnav

I finished her faceup! <3 she'll be soon fully finished and go up in my store! I'll upload her process to youtube soon, I actually did it twice but wasn't satisfied with the first one. I bought new pastels and wow they have amazing color! Still have to get used to it though.

Little making of video of the dress I made yesterday! ❤

[rosiesdolldiary]

New doll in the making! I decided to make her dress first and the faceup probably this week (I'll buy more pastel colors before that hehe). I've had her head for a long time now in the drawer, but I didn't like the body it came with. I have some other heads having the same problem, so I ordered this body originally to another one, but this head looked so well on this, so I modified it a bit and now it fits!

[rosiesdolldiary]

I can't help but take pictures of her every time I make her a new bonnet, and well this is the third haha... But I think I'm satisfied with this at last. I bought super pretty tiny laces ah I can't wait to make her clothes!! I also have a few more dolls coming up, something a bit different... :>
