Monster High Spree - Create a Monsters

Well after waiting forever to get a new Monster High doll, they put a whole bunch of new Create a Monster kits! There's the blob girl and ice girl two pack, the gorgon and mummy two pack, and also two separate add-ons - the harpy and siren. So you guessed it - I got them all!!! They are pretty nice. I looooove the harpy and siren, they are so different than anything I have. Of course they didn't come with their own bodies(being add-ons) so I have them on two other bodies. The harpy is rocking the dragon body from an earlier set and I believe I slapped  o the werewolf body for the siren.

So of course my full picture show:

Blob girl:

Fully together blob girl
Only pair of shoes in the set with her and ice girl

Close up of face. She's a very glittery doll
The hair is a rubber piece
It's snug so no pin to hold in place

The arm has 'goo' dripping off lol
Glittery body

You can see the difference in the legs and body
The hand was broken - have to be careful not to pop the pin.

Although all the close up shots were super blurry
you can see her feet aren't normal.

The wing arms! These are pretty impressive. Although, they feel a bit heavy
She doesn't seem to like keeping her arm held up.
Could just be my doll... Still love it though!

Rocking the Frock ... for Ellowyne

My mom recently asked me to make a frock coat for Ellowyne... I guess I was up for the challenge!


Turns out like this
El the mad hatter!
Close up of sleeve
It's lined! You've seen that fabric before though
lol - just look at Mina's Victorian dresses
Pockets on the coat
Nice and embroidered
Back of coat

More dresses for Mina

Not saying they don't fit Juste, lol, but I made a couple Victorian style dresses for Mina. I made the underskirt, the underpants, and a bustle for her also. This is probably some of the most embellishment I've put into a dress(not including the Hanfu I made for Samantha), but Mina's never had anything so fancy!

First(striped) dress:

Bustle pad
Front of underpants
Back of pants
Underskirt
Back of skirt
Also this is the same fabric used as the lining
of the bodice piece
Front of dress - unfinished
Back of dress - unfinshed
Bet you didn't think the fabric was once a  shower curtain
Well it was!!
Close up detailing, not finished yet
Back of bodice laces up
Finished detailing the bodice - made a necklace too
Fully finished dress front
Fully finished dress back


Second(Taffeta) dress:

I said Mina had two dresses... currently Juste is wearing this one!! lol - He is really cute in it, you wouldn't know he was a boy... Maybe I'll get a pic of him in it and post it.

Second pair of underpants
Underskirt
Ribbon weaved all the way through :)
Front of dress
This bodice piece is hooked unlike the laced first one
Back of dress
Side view
Close up embellishing. Sewed all the bows on by hand
Close up of back of skirt
Front of bodice close up
All the beads are laced through the ribbon
and then hand sewn on
Tada!! Mina is stylin'
