Happy Holidays and New Year 2015!

                         

                                    ~ * ~ HAPPY HOLIDAYS and NEW YEAR 2015 ~ * ~

My Etsy shop is closed for 24. December 2014 - 1. January 2015, but will open again then. I will answer messages and take orders when I´m back from holidays.

The New Year 2015 will start with many Blythe items and hopefully I will be then less busy to create more new things!

I wish every friend of mine a lovely start of 2015 and all the best. Thank you very much!

Support the bjd artists Day #proBjdArtists

Today it is a good day for showing our love for the work of doll artists, against recasting.

This is my part of the event, some of my artist dolls standing up for the good deed.

You can see more here, and also add yours - it´s not only for one day to remember this important thing!

Resin skulls!

I´m sharing my table at Ldoll festival with Magistrum, which is a little company offering resin bjd dolls and props, plus art doll / small item casting service.

In our table you can find these resin skulls (5 white and 2 black ones) available for only 25€ / each. Such a great spooky prop for upcoming Halloween scenes!

You can find more info of Magistrum and his works in here:

The skulls are best for props for msd and sd sized dolls, but as I only have the smaller dolls, here are photos with my little ones.

The floor map is published, and here you can see my location, in stand A35, on the middle corridor of the hall.  Welcome to visit my stand at Ldoll festival 18. -19. October 2014 in Lyon, France.

Welcome to www.etsy.com/shop/SweetNeat

Kertty, my Buganville Blythe is home...

This sweetie arrived last week... She used to be Wicker by Buganville, but I changed her name to Kerttu as it´s easier to pronounce in Finnish mouth. She is adorable and I´m thrilled to own her. I took her to our summer place to be photographed and took some really cute pics of her!

Here is another tiny cutie, dragonlet Snooks by DaisyDayes. Such a precious little thing!

Facebook

Recently I found out it was possible to make an own Facebook page for the product/service, not just as person. It was heartwarming to see there were quickly over 100 likes! Thanks everyone for that. :)

I had planned to make a giveaway of my own already some time ago, but hadn´t good time yet. Now I decided to have a giveaway for the FB page, so keep updated! I have been planning some new nice things to do.

Awhile, welcome to visit and like at:  www.facebook.com/sweetneat.wigs

Hello again!

It has been way too long time since my last blog post... The reason was that I lost the password and didn´t get in until now. Luckily even now then! :)

There has been a lot of change in the doll family since my last post... And still new dolls on the way. I´m looking forward to get Nefer Kane´s Mystery human and Baby Humpty home, and also there is a new Blythe doll on the way, in layaway at the moment. I was thrilled to see one of my newer favourite custom dolls available, Buganville´s Wicker, previously owned by Tiina. Wonderful!


The newest arrivals in this year have been awesome, mostly artist dolls I have been dreaming of!

Two skinny little women: Heartstrung Ruse and BJTales Phantom. Both of them I painted myself, and also opened a bit Ruse´s eyes.

 

Cerisedolls Ninon, which I´ve been wishing for since I saw the first photos of the handmade doll. Magdalena is elegant and girly, but a bit shy young lady.

Connie Lowe´s Sprocket Glee, I just couldn´t resist that sweet smile!

I also bought Leeke Ashley head - missed the one I owned previously. Such a sweet bobble-head!

Also I got home Prairie Posie Blythe, Icy doll and made an interesting combination of Blythe head and plump body of some odd Mimi Bobeck doll (apologies for her nudity in photo). Poor little Tiny Betsy McCall doll arrived when I had already lost hope - it took 6 months of her to get home since she was first sent to me.

The spring has been busy one, but there is still something done and new in my Etsy, too. I hope to find also time for my own dolls soon...

Azone girl arrived...

And now there is an Azone in the house after all... I couldn´t resist a chance to get a second-hand girl as it was one of my best favourites of all Azones. So here is Ex-cute Forest Bear Koron, which arrived today.

I am surprised and happy to see how wonderful she is to the last little detail, her clothing is awesome! But I have still to learn to get used with the anime face... That is not my thing at all. But she is so cute that maybe I will tolerate it for a while. :)

Also Azone doll is on the way...

I happened "accidentally" to buy a little Azone girl... And while waiting her to arrive home, why not to attend to the cute giveaway I bumped in! :)

I found it here:

Heavenly Kids by Chesca

These cute little button-nosed babies arrived yesterday and made me smile! They´re resin art dolls with painted eyes and no joints except the arms and legs move. Super cute! I had wished to get these cuties at home for ages until finally got them ordered.

This is the lovely packaging! Adorable cover art.

And here are the nakie little ones right out of packet! So cute!

Here they are being clothed in various pieces of Pukifee and Middie Blythe clothes. Only the green hat is made by myself, the others have been bought from various craftsmakers. Need to get something done for them soon!

I named the little sisters as Varpu and Inkeri. Varpu is the brown-haired one, and Inkeri her bigger sister with ginger hair. Can´t wait to take better photos of them!

New wigs in my Etsy!

Some cute little wigs added in my Etsy shop now, and more to come, if the bad internet connection lets me upload! 

(It is good chance to buy now, as unfortunately mohair´s price has again raised and I need to fix the prices soon a bit.)

Happy New Year 2014!

Happy New Year 2014 for everyone! I´ve had lovely long holidays here, and have not been much home - also had not at all so much dolly time as I had imagined to have. I managed to make a face-up for Cissy, my M-line Minifee Chloe, and took some photos though. Here she is with her sister Cosette, which also is Chloe but with modded open eyes and A-line body. They look cute together!

Today I have been sewing wigs and hopefully will get the waiting orders completed soon. I´m waiting for the new mohair order to arrive, it seems like forever to come this time! I even wished it to arrive before Christmas, but no chance, I haven´t even got the customs info about it... Blah. I hope my customers are more patient than I feel right now.

I wish everyone will have a lovely year and all the dreams and hopes of us all would come true during this year. :) Hugs for you all, and keep checking my Etsy shop, I´m making some new wigs there, too.
