Sharon Sews Sixth Scale Stuff

Sharon Sews Sixth Scale Stuff. Try saying that swiftly seven times.

Found a sewing blog that has tutorials for Barbie stuff. Whoo hoo! Here is the link to Sharon Sews post about sewing for Barbie-sized dolls. Hope you find the tips useful.

There are tips for people scale fashions, too, as well as other crafts. Me, I am mostly about the playscale stuff. If I can adapt the other tips to that scale, great. If not, shrug.

New Ken Outfit? What Do You Think?

Saw this fashion today, and I wondered if Ken were getting some new fashions. Anyone see this one before? Ken wearing a graphic print. I think it looks nice if a little warm for summer. Then again, we're having a heat wave here so maybe it's just in my head. Anyone see this as a believable Ken summer outfit? The sunglasses are adorable.

Integrity Candi Collection 2002, Courtesy of My Favorite Doll

I have a My Favorite Doll Spring-Summer 2002 catalog. So I asked Margaret Matsui, the president of My Favourite Doll Inc., for permission to scan certain pages from that catalog. She said yes. (Do I know good people? Oh, yes! I do.) So here are two Integrity Toys' Candi pages. Hope you enjoy seeing them.



I am fortunate to have two of the dolls on this page: the Asian Holiday Toast and the Asian International. Lovely dolls in exquisite fashions. NOT for sale.

I have two of the dolls shown on this page: Subtle Elegance (the Israeli face mold) and On the Go (the Hispanic face mold). They are also NOT for sale.



Additional Candi photos can be found on this French blog, on Frannie's blog, and of course, on Black Doll Collecting's blog.

You can still buy some of these lovely dolls on Susan's Shop of Dolls.

Thanks, Marg!

P.S. I might have to link to these pages elsewhere so that you can see the dolls better.

Tribute Action Figure - Personalized Yourself Lately?

Has anyone submitted his or her likeness to Tribute Action Figures? That company creates articulated action figures with specially sculpted heads tailored to look like an individual person. I assume the bodies are one size fits all - one male sculpt and one female one. The head though is the piece of distinction. Examples are shown on their website; the figures look like real people.

So anyone have this done or seen others who have had it done?

I saw their Like page on Facebook and wondered if it made a good job of it. Not that I am seeking a personalized, mini-D7ana. That I would have to do myself ;-D

More Dolls and Action Figures for Sale ... by ModernWizard

Guess who else is having a doll and action figure sale? No, don't be snarky and ask who is NOT having a sale. I have news about original, one-of-a-kind dolls and action figures many created by the inimitable ModernWizard, author of the adult-themed  Blog of Stench where vampires, ghosts, humans, and zombies discuss and sometimes pontificate about life, love, and sex. For photos and descriptions of playscale figures, some of whom may be FREE or low cost, please see this post.

Final selling point: some of those dolls have been altered by renown doll artist Andrea of DollsAhoy!

Oh, no! Now you're hooked on a new blog? Shrug. Oh that we had the time to read all we liked. Enjoy!

Disco Wanda's New Body

Hi yall!

Disco Wanda here. Yall might remember me from the Morristown Wedding? (Laughs.) No, I was not the bride. I was one of the guests. I went with Old Joe and some teenagers? Yes, ma'am, that Wanda. Anywho, I just wanted to holler at yall and let yall know that I gots a new body now. Yes, indeedy. A new body.

Now that don't make me no new woman. I am still the same Disco Wanda who loves to party, but I can boogie better with this new body. A Monsieur Z gal named Jungle Fever, had it before me. See that tan safari top that some um person like to call a dress? That was her style, but yall remember me. And one thing I am not is a hootchy woman. Not Disco Wanda. I likes to party, but I party like a Lady. First and foremost. My Momma didn't raise no hootchy mamas. So any perves out there, look your look 'cause you ain't ever gonna see me dressed like that again. My old top, skirt, and belt is a little too big for me now. This one skinny body. No offense meant, yall. And like I said, well, my old top surely is too big - but I ain't gonna be gadding about in slut-style. No, indeedy. The Good Lord did not mean me to be a hootchy woman. My Momma did not raise no hootchy woman. So I will find me some decent, Christian clothes if I have to expire in a tweed coat over the summer. Not that I am planning that, yall. Just saying how far I will go to not be no hootchy woman. Not saying God don't love hootchy women, but I ain't going down that path, hear?

"Wanda, your Momma's calling ..."

Okay, tell her I'm comin' chile.

Ain't that nice, yall? One of them little chippies telling me my Momma's on the line. Lord, I better get there. Momma don't hold with no long distance playing. I just wanted to let yall know about the new body and how I am going to put it to good use.

"Wanda ... "

Alright, alright. I'm coming. Yall take care, now. God bless ...
