Corpse Bride Doll

 While I waited "patiently" for the Monster High x American Girl collab, I looked through tons of Monster High dolls and secretly wished I had collected them instead of AG. I'm okay now that Frankie is out and I love her sooooo much. But before she got here, I came across this ad: Now when I first saw the ad for this doll (who is a 14 inch Living Dead Doll) I thought she looked like an 18" doll. And had she been an 18 inch doll, I would have had to buy her. It's actually better for me and my bank account that she isn't the right size for my collection. Plus, I thought, I can make my own. So that's what I did. I got to work painting an entire doll blue.   This was my first attempt at making her eyes. My daughter said that they were too weird. I agreed but I had already taken these great pictures of her. She was right, of course. I just love how her arm and flowers came out. And look at that ring! So I needed a way to display her and I had these OG boxes em...

It's Spooky Season!!

 I adore Halloween and my whole family lives for it. Not only is it in the fall (my favorite time of year) but you get to dress up and people give you candy. Even adults. I can't tell you how many houses I've taken my kids to and they give me candy too. Halloween just brings out the best in people. So here are some of my favorite dolly Halloweens. And we've had a lot of great ones. We've had your classic Trick or Treating So many, many costumes. We decorate the yard     We've done a Trunk or Treat We've had Family Costume Contests We've hosted school events Boy we have had a lot of really great Halloweens here in Shedville. Here's to many more years to come. Happy Halloween Everyone!!
