RealPuki Gets a New Dress (or Two)

February 29, 2020 Megann Zabel

If you visit my Etsy page frequently, you may have noticed the occasional tulle dress pop up for PukiPuki and RealPuki dolls. It’s often challenging to sew something so tiny, but I love the little tulle dresses and feel compelled to make more. I am always on the hunt for remnant tulle and matching applique flowers to make more variations of this dress. A commission to make a few more of these came up recently and I just had to make some extra.

Pictured is my RealPuki ball-jointed doll (BJD), Titi. This Fairyland BJD is a well-sculpted super tiny doll with magnetic hands and feet. The doll is smaller than PukiPuki, Kelly, and similar sized dolls. The dresses made for RealPuki are more likely to fit Amelia Thimble and Petite Blythe.

Interested in a tiny dress in red or yellow? Snag one on Etsy while supplies last.

Smart Doll Kizuna

Move over Dollfie Dream, Smart Dolls are the new popular large vinyl doll. I'm sure there are plenty of people that will be Dollfie Dream fans for life, but I'm amazed at how quickly Smart Dolls took off in the doll collecting arena. I picked up a Smart Doll a couple years ago, right before this Kizuna head was retired. The new Kizuna head is a very popular sculpt and screening.

I took my Kizuna out for a simple photoshoot. She's wearing a blouse I designed for SD sized BJDs a few years ago. She's also wearing a necklace I picked up at a BJD show and Iplehouse jeggings. The wig isn't her original, but it fits her well.

Calico and Lace Dress Set

I FINALLY finished a new set for Momoko! It sat around for quite a while because I really wanted to work on my tatting skills to add a little extra to the outfit. It turns out, I’m WAY better at needle tatting versus shuttle tatting.

The set comes with a beige coat with handmade tatted lace applique brooch, sleeveless calico print dress, underskirt, and purse with matching tatted lace applique. It fits a variety of fashion dolls, including Poppy Parker, Liv, Jenny, Tiny Kitty, and some Barbie sizes. I noticed it was sometimes difficult to get larger hands through the sleeves of the coat.

In the near future, I hope to do a variation of this outfit in a digital pattern to sell in the shop. Support an artist! Visit my Etsy shop. You can also follow my Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, and Pinterest pages.

Polly Pocket Out of Sight Campsite Compact

May 7, 2019 Megann Zabel

It’s ANOTHER Polly Pocket post! This time we have a cute compact with a camping theme. Shani packed up her gear to go camping with her telescope, campfire stove, and first aid kit. Inside the compact is a tent that folds down to reveal her sleeping bag and inner tent arrangement. There is also a camp fire on the bottom portion of the compact. I like that the folding tent can act as a storage place for tiny items. However, like most of these new Polly Pocket compacts, I have found that getting all the little tiny pieces into the compact and shutting it can be a problem. I’m an adult and it feels like a tiny frustrating puzzle to shove everything inside just right. The camp stove also leans to one side since one leg is a little uneven compared to the others.

Well, the tent makes this one a winner for me. I was at a big box store recently and spotted a tiny artist set that looked super fun, too. Should I go for more or get back to dolly designs? ;)

Polly Pocket Tiny Pocket Size Picnic Compact

May 4, 2019 Megann Zabel

Here’s another round of Polly Pocket fun. This time we have Polly in a picnic setting with her dog Peaches. I had to bend one of the doggy’s legs a bit to get her to stand properly. The compact has a cooler that opens. There is a separate picnic basket that opens as well. Her skateboard has working wheels of sorts. She has the sticky feet, which keep her on the skateboard quite well. Her scooter is attached to the compact and isn’t the best design. Polly cannot easily fit on the scooter while in the compact, but if you remove the scooter from the compact, it will not stand on it’s own.

All in all, not my fav compact thus far, but still fun. My personal choice to date has been the little fashion designer in this post. Stay tuned for one more Polly Pocket compact I’ll be photographing soon!
