Purple Hair

 So i decided to focus on Hair and HAirstyles a little bit more and made a Hairshoothing with a styled outfit.
I had this Purple Saran hair in a dark and a light shade in my Re-root-Box for a long time now. It's just a very hard to fit haircolor. But Sweet-Tea Barbie from The Look-Collection Seemy to be perfect with her greenish eyes. She might acctually look good in a lot of Haircolor shades, i think blonde would also be nice on her.
I made another backdrop and i bought some professionel light, finally. It really makes more fun now to take pics. The Styling is by my new boyfriend. yes, a new boyfriend! And he likes Barbie and plays with me, which makes me really happy..... <3

 Have nice Holidays and a happy new year everyone! See you in 2017!....

From the Future to the Past

                                     


                                          A Window Display fo the Wiener Haarfundus

                                                              My dear Fans and Visitors!

I am welcoming the doll-season 2016 with a window display i made fot the Wiener Haarfundus! So my Barbie`s are finally on Display!
I made the Miniature-Model in its entirety, except for the furniture. I also used Rement Miniature that I bought over the years.
So my theme was a tTime-travel Story, inspired by the Retro-Future from the 50ies and 60ies to bring together the two things i love the most - Historic gowns and Scifi!

If you are in vienna come by to see them at the Wiener Haarfundus , Salesianergasse 17, 1030!

 I used my favourite Rokoko-Barbies, who you already know.
The Girl with the Pastell-Pink hair is the one from my last Post, I just gave her a new hot-water-Perm and restyled her hair! There`s also a new Girl, the one with the Mint-green Hair! She used to be Barbie Basics-01 and got a Re-root in BlueSky, Turquoise and HiHoSilver, all Saran Hair from www.mylittlecustoms.com . 

If you  look closely you will notice, the idea was that the two modern Girls where traveling to the Past, they got the same Facemolds on both side... 

❀ Frédérique's ❀ Handkerchiefdress...

A tribute to Kikihalb ♧ Forest~Tales ♧...

When i started looking for Inspiration on Flickr! i quickly found this artist who works with Blythe! She sew's really elaborate dresses and gowns, everything by hand and everything very detailed. It's a joy to go on her Flickr!-account and i found a Tutorial, which she shared! So i sat down and made a little dress out of a Floral printed cotton handkerchief, which is the trademark of Frèdèique, for Barbie.

I hope she smiles if she might by any chance ever see this ;)

I used Renaissance fair Barbie again for this Shooting! She's the one I started with. I finally gave her a Re-root in tickled pink and snow-white, saran hair from mylittlecustoms.

I made the Roombox, the screen/paravent and the flowers after the book 'The-Big-Book-Miniature-House', by Lea Frisoni (I highly recommend this book for anyone who is interested in making miniature's and Roomboxes). The sidetables are orders from Ebay 

Thank's for visiting!

Ginger Mona-Lisa...

So summer is almost over. I worked a lot on a Roombox but i am not ready enough to show it. But i feel comfortable to already talk about it, because it will be finished, soon...

I also made two Re-roots, one showing you with this post. I finally found time to transform my Mona-Lisa Barbie into a redhead!  I think she got the perfect lip- and eyecolour for red hair. She is one ot the rather rare Barbies to have her eyes painted to look slightly to the side, which makes her special!

I mixed 4 copper-tones to blend into this colour. She wears a simple blouse with lace and my first skirt ever! Weird, but i just made dresses until now.  

Also you can see my 'Test'-Roombox, as i like to call it. I had to start somewhere so I made a very small one, just to see how it all works.

By The Lake

I made this lace-dress to be photographed underwater but I think I have to get used to the idea that there will be no Underwaterpics this year. We had a lot of rain in Austria and I didn't get much chance to get into the pool. So I went out to a Lake nearby to take this pics.

 So let's get wet, at least...

Enjoy!

I used Green-Lantern Barbie, again.  I still think she's one of the best dolls ever produced. And I finally had a chance to take Barbie Basics Nr.5 out. She got a Reroot in a custom blend of black and dark blue.

Little Summer-Boho Dress....

Since I am renovating my little country-apartment this summer I do not have so much time for Barbie, sadly. But I made this little Boho-summer dress a while ago and finally got the time to take pics.

I used Barbie Nr. 08 from the Basics Jeans-Line and rerooted her with a custom blend of Original Brunette and Hazelnut, both Saran Hair from www.mylittlecustoms.co.uk. I totally love her. I think she got the perfect lip colour...

The fabric I used for the dress is thin cotton mousseline from Liberty!...

Have a great summer,

Alice in Wonderland...

Making myself happy...

Since I can remember I always loved Alice in Wonderland.  I loved to read the book, I loved the Disney-movie from the 50ties and ther was also an animated series around in the 80ies that i loved to watch.
I think it's a perfect theme for Barbie because when Alice shrinks and talks to the flowers in the Disney version she might be at about Barbie's size. So I loved to playAlice with my Barbie.
What I dont undestand is that Mattel has not offered a satisfying version lately. Of course there are the 'Skipper as Alice' Dolls from the 90ties and there was this more artistic version a few years ago. But was there any original or Disney Inspired version yet? I mean really like 'Barbie as Alice..'?
No there was not. But of course we get another set of 'Gone with the wind'-Scarlets and 'Oz-Dohrothy's'.

So there's nothing else to do than making myself happy and create one by myself. This is what I came up with, this is what I would like to see from Mattel!

Enjoy!

I used 'Daria Celebutante'. She got a reroot in Blondicous and Dark-Maibu  (Saran hair fom MyLittleCustom)

   Hope you love her as much as I do!

Summer 2014 is about to start!

Going to Wonderland. Soon...

Looks like summer 2014 is finally about to arrive. We had a lot of rain the last weeks here in Vienna and i am shooting on my 2nd costume movie in the make-up department right now. So there was no time yet to go out and take pics, but Alice is already finished and waiting. I just wanted to let you know that there is something to come and give you a little preview and show you the making of!

Soon more......


Go out and enjoy the sun, if you can! I would...;)
