My Our Generation Battat Custom Dolls Collection... So Far...

Hi Doll Friends!

This post has been sitting in my To-Do folder forever... Mostly because I wanted to do one really long post about all my Our Generation Dolls to update this post. However, even though these photos were taken back in February I 'paused' and never got back to the project again yet. So... I'm going to post the collection in stages rather than never getting it posted at all. 

I've done many many custom dolls since I started collecting 18 inch dolls but my Our Generation Doll customs are some of my favorites. So without further ado (adieu?), here they are: 

Aubrianna is likely the custom I've gotten the most compliments of all my customs ever made. I just love her to bits, she is so pretty and photogenic! 

Here we have a custom I've made from one of the rarest of the Our Generation face sculpts. I've only ever found two of them and I love them both. This is the second wig she's had, the first one was pretty but I love this one so much more. 

Here we have Hector... I can't seem to find a write up about him. 

This is my Vito Doll... He's one of my most treasured dolls because he is my son's doppelganger doll. He no longer has blonde curls like this but he did when he was little bitty and that's why his doll has them. Here is a post of him with horses that is has some of my favorite photos of him. 

Here we have Bernie... Couldn't find a write up about her customization either but she's my Grandma C's doppelganger doll... She's got cute photos in this post of her tidying up the Doll House. 

Here is Annie. 

Sad to say I can't recall when I customized this one and couldn't find a post about her but she's adorable. 

Here is Hematite. 

Finally we have Samorn. I love how she looks with her blonde wig. 

So that's all of them... So far. 

Wish I had more time! Sadly I gotta go!

First Doll Photos In A While... Reprah Takes a Walk...

Greetings and Salutations Doll Friends!

It's been a while since I got out and took Doll Photos. So I am determined to get out on a regular basis and take some because it's one of my favorite aspects of my doll hobby. So last week I randomly grabbed a doll to get out for photos. I picked Reprah, a custom I made from a New York Doll Company Citi Girls that I got on an amazing sale. I love the photos I got.

So I am trying to hold myself accountable... I want to get back to enjoying my Doll Hobby more often even if it's not to the scale I once did. What doll hobby things have ya'll done lately? Tell me about them in the comments!

Kindred Heart Paige Gets A Twin...!

Doll Friends!

Recently I customized my Kindred Heart Paige. When I went to Amazon to find a link to put on that post and what did I find but that, then, Paige had gone down in price to only $21.55! I impulsively purchased a second one! She arrived in short order and here she is with Lee Hye-bin! 

I bought her with with customization in mind... I won't lie, one reason Lee Hye-bin got her makeover was that I was never very thrilled about her hair. Her bangs were just... what's a good word? Flat I guess... Well, when Paige #2 arrived, I was glad to see that I thought same thing about this one. She even had unevenly cut bangs...! So I didn't feel bad at all about cutting off her hair. 

I started to make a little progression photography thing session where Lee Hye-bin greeted her... But then I didn't get it finished... I figured I'd share the ones I took. 

I decided to give her a 'natural' color wig and plan to name her after another one of my daughters favorite Kpop stars... I'll reveal the name after I tell my daughter! 

Isn't she adorable?!?! I love her!

I better run! I want to finish several posts this morning because I've been so flaky lately... 

Have a great day!

Kindred Heart Paige Gets A Makeover! Introducing Lee Hye-bin from Momoland!

Hi Doll Friends!

So... I've been wanting to make a doppelganger doll of a Kpop star that my daughter loves named Lee Hye-bin in the band Momoland... I kept looking for a perfect doll to use to make her. I don't know why it didn't occur to me when I got her but I was looking at my dolls about a week ago and I noted that poor Paige hadn't really left the doll shelf since I got her... And suddenly I was like "Hold the phone! She'd be perfect!" So, I grabbed out my little collection of doll wigs and tried the ones I had considered using for her. 

Currently Lee Hye-bin is kind of known for having short hair.... However, when I looked her up when I found out she was one of my daughters favorite, I found photos of her with a bit longer hair in pastels... So I decided to go with that look. Teehee. Cos how cute!! Eh?

I love how she came out! 

I better run for now... Time flies! Have a great week Doll Friends!

Paradise Kids 18" Doll Goodwill Find and Makeover!

Doll Friends,

Ok found just another moment here...

I found this pretty little lady last week at Goodwill for $3.99!

I had to bring her home and clean her up because...

She'd been through a rough time. 

I actually used to have a Paradise Kids doll but I'd sent her to Frann a while ago for her collection. So it's neat another one found her way to the Doll House... 

She seemed in pretty good shape other than her hair... 

So I just cut it it off and started trying on wigs...

Here is the first wig I tried on her... It wasn't horrible. 

But I loved this one the minute I put it on her... Just cute!

I love the soft waves and cute shorter style. 

So I think this is the one I'll keep on her. I'm not postive... The wig was actually really really tight. Paradise Kids obviously have a bit larger head size than other 18inch dolls. So right at her temples you can see the 'plug holes' from her prior hair. But her hair will be worn down in this style so I don't know if it will matter. We shall see...

Better run!
