She is a Leeke Sweet in tan skin..I really fall in love for this girl!

Lei è la mia nuova bambola e si chiama Chibi.
Il modello è il Sweet della Leeke in pelle tan...Mi sono proprio innamorata T__T

Tanto per provare ho aggiunto le maniche ai vestitini..Ehm... Che casino! XD XD


Just for fun I add the sleeves to my dress... Too difficult for me XD XD !!!

Just for fun!

My first handmade dresses yo-sd sized...Not perfect yet!

I miei primi vestitini taglia yo-sd..Non ancora perfetti!

Please meet Mia !

She is Mia, my Custom House Ange Ai Uri (she has a loooooong name!!)
I bought a basic doll and after the face up she is more pretty.
I fall in love for her!
Now I have to sew more dresses for her (here she fits a recycled dress!)!!

Lei si Chiama Mia. E' una Custom House Ange Ai Uri (nome lunghisssiiiimooo!!!)
La casa madre è veramente lunga a spedire, dai 4 ai 8 mesi...Ma io la volevo cosi tanto... Mi sono messa a cercarla già in Italia ed alla fine ce l'ho fatta..Ci ho messo lo stesso sei mesi per averla finita, è stata una cosa sofferta XD XD Quindi direi che Mia è azzeccato come nome!
Ho comprato la bambola base e dove il face-up è veramente pacioccosa!!
Mi sono innamorata di questa bimba!!
Ora devo cucirle qualche vestitino, qui ne indossa uno riciclato da un vecchio orsetto poverina!

My items

New handmade dresses

Ho comprato questa Hujoo di seconda mano, me ne sono innamorata a prima vista....
L'ho cambiata un pochino, ora la sento più mia!

I have bought this Hujoo on second-hand... I changed her a little bit!

When I got her - Quando l'ho presa era cosi!



Now Plum in her new handmade dresses - Plum adesso con i vestiti nuovi fatti da me

...Trying to find my (sewing) way ....

Dopo il divieto assoluto di usare l'uncinetto (causa tendinite T-T) non mi resta che piangere..Ehm no... Cucire!
Pensiamo positivo, è un'ottimo input per usare la stoffa che ho comprato!
La mia povera Hattara finalmente ha la sua testa ed è finita, si merita un bel vestitino!
Questo è ancora un'ibrido, mezzo crochet, mezzo stoffa, ma è carino!
Mi sono divertita a cucire le pailettes lungo il bordo della gonna e nel fiorellino...Ehm.. Divertita nemmeno tanto, la prossima volta opterò per un nastrino XD XD!!!


I have the absolute prohibition of crochet (I have the tendinitis T-T).... I can only trying to sew!
My Hattara finally has her head and she is finished =)
Now she wants a new dress! =)
This is a prototype, half crochet, half fabrics...I think it is cute !
I enjoyed sewing sequins along the edge of the skirt and flower....Not much enjoyd... The next time I will use a ribbon!!!! XD XD

Satuday's shopping !

Ecco cosa ho comprato sabato scorso!
Continuo a prendere stoffe ma poi non ho il tempo di cucire purtroppo =(
Una è già natalizia, lo so che sono in anticipo di circa sei mesi, ma poi lo so già che quando sarà il momento il suo prezzo si raddopierà....Bisogna giocare d'anticipo, anche se è un po troppo XD XD XD

My Saturday's shopping!
I bought more fabrics but I haven't time to sew T-T...
One fabric is for Christmas...I'm very early I know, but during Christmas the price will double.
I play in advance!!! XD XD XD

Bye bye Butter!

Ora che la mia Hujoo mania è scoppiata a tutti gli effetti ho deciso di dar via le altre bimbe (mamma snaturata XD) per poter comprare altre Hujoo base da customizzare.
Butter il mio Pukipuki in white skin é stato adottato!
Ciao Ciao ci vediamo presto su Flickr bimba!

I have the Hujoo fever, so I have to put for adoption my other dolls, so I can buy more, and more Hujoo girl =)
Butter is tanken!
Bye bye girl, we see soon on Flickr!

Strawberry Shortcake: bought, dressed, taken!

Gironzolando su Flickr mi ero innamorata di questa bambola, in italiano è Fragolina Dolcecuore, non so se ve la ricordate, io ne avevo una da bambina!
E' una bambola Vintage, viene dagli anni '80.... LoL
Diciamo che non è proprio il mio genere cosi l'ho vestita e subito me l'anno adottata =)
Ora vivrà in Francia, buon viaggio piccoletta! =)

I've seen more pic of this doll on Flickr and I fall in love for her... She is a Vintage Strawberry Shortcake and come from the '80... LoL
She is not my favourite doll so I've made 3 little dresses and I've put her on adoption...
Now she live in France, we se soon little girl! =)

Professional face-up for my girl =)

Il mio vecchio colore non mi piaceva proprio, c'era qualcosa che non mi convinceva affatto...

Alla fine mi sono rivolta ad una professionista e devo dire che sono rimasta sbalordita dal cambiamento della mia Hattara!!!!

L'artista si chiama Luna- Sleepingliar e questo è il suo album

Se volete contattarla è una ragazza davvero gentile e deliziosa, sempre pronta e disponibile, sicuramente tutte le mie prossime bambole saranno truccate da lei!

I don't love my first face-up, it isn't perfect... So I asked help from a professional face-up artist.
In this pic you can see the result, isn't she adorable? I think it is an amazing work!

Tha artist is called Luna-Sleepingliar and here you can found her photostream.

I think she is a very kindly person and all my future doll will have her face-up!

Summer is......Watermelon!

Fabrics,fabrics,fabrics.............

Ho una bambola nuova da customizzare, degli amigurumi da consegnare e i miei progetti nuovi da fare ma....... Il tempo quello proprio non ce l'ho =(
Ho desiderato tanto un secondo lavoro e finalmente l'ho trovato!!!!
Si tratta di fare la stagione in una grossa menza aziendale, mi spacco la schiena e quando arrivo a casa ho le braccia a pezzi cosi non riesco nè a dipingere ne a tenere in mano l'uncinetto (sisi la mia amica tendinite che mi viene a trovare come sempre ....).
Comunque non demordo e non mi lascio abbattere e mi tiro su con un pò di shopping su internet.
Questa settimana è dedicata alle stoffe, ve le mostro e vi lascio i link, sono tutte dei quadrati chiamati fat quarter di circa 50cm x 55cm e sono utilissimi per una serie infinita di progetti handmade. Io li userò per dei vestitini per le mie bambole e forse vestirò qualche orsetto amigurumi =)
Con questi venditori mi trovo benissimo e ve li garantisco, la spedizione è pressochè immediata e i prezzi sono ottimi, credo tra i più bassi nel rapporto qualità/prezzo.

I have to custom my new doll, I have to finish my amigurumi orders and I have to start my new projects but I haven't time =(.
Fortunately I have a new job untill the end of the summer season!!
In this week I have brought more fabrics for my tiny projects, they are all fat quarter and I want to make Blythe/Hujoo dress and maybe an amigurumi bear dress =)
I love those sellers , I think they are cheap and they ship immediatly!

Grande mamma!!! / Go mom!!!

My mom @ her first exibition. / Mia mamma alla sua prima mostra colletiva.

Di solito sono i genitori ad essere orgogliosi dei figli, ma ieri è stato il contrario.
Mia mamma ha tenuto la sua prima mostra collettiva, assieme ad artisti dilettanti come lei e professionisti con tanto di atelier privato.
Tra gli invitati era presente un noto critico locale che tra tanti quadri è stato colpito da due opere in particolare...Beh una di quelle erano le calle dipinte dalla mia mamma =) =) =)... Eh, son soddisfazioni!
Se passate a Savona la mostra rimarrà aperta ancora per una settimana nel Palazzo della Provincia!


Usully the parents are proud of their children but yesterday was the opposite.
My mother has set up her first exhibition, with amateurs and professionals painter.
Among the visitors was a well-known local critic, he said to love two paintings in particular... Well,one was the picture of my mom!!!!
