I just wanted to show off a few more recent outfits I've made for the dolls. Check them out! The pale green cardigan wrap actually fits most 1:6 scale dolls and not just Momoko. Support an artist!

After going through my recent blog posts, I realized it has been quite a while since I've posted any of my dolly designs. I originally set up this blog to be a MegannArt Momoko doll attire showcase, but it has evolved over time. Regardless of this blog's evolution, I'm still bringing you fun designs made by yours truly. See some recent designs below, some of which were during a photo shoot while on the east cost (Virginia) for Thanksgiving. Spoiler alert -- you might see some of the below designs in a pattern book released in the next year! I'll likely be picking up the pace with my clothing designs, so prepare to see a lot more volume in the Etsy shop in the near future.

Momoko Wake Up Doll Special (WUDsp) is finally here! She is currently the only Wake Up Momoko with tan skin. The Wake Up dolls usually come with some kind of pajamas or sleepwear, but this Momoko seems to be wearing a fabulous floral print dress with matching underwear. Perhaps it is her slumber attire? I wish I had a wardrobe of these great dresses to wear to sleep!
Please see the photos to catch a glimpse of WUDsp outside of her stock photos. It certainly could be just me, but it seems like her lip/eye shadow color is a tad lighter and makes it stand out all the more on her tanned skin. She will be a highly coveted doll in this household.

Below are pics of the new Momoko Wake-Up dolls 15 and 16, which introduce the shortest haired WUD Momoko to date. Her hair cute is quite darling. I also noticed the face paint on both WUD is exactly the same. Support an artist! Visit my Etsy Shop. You can also follow my Twitter, Facebook, and Pinterest pages.

I'm on a mission -- to find those darling little Momoko in actual stores in North America (not online). There is something gratifying about seeing a Momoko in person before purchasing it. As with many collectable dolls, there is a possibility of variation in the actual doll versus the stock photos, making it an even better reason to see those little beauties in person. I've encountered some stores over the past year and I want to share them with you, in case you are in the neck-of-the-woods of one of these great little shops.
First up, The
Swell Shop in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. After walking into this store, I was greeted by Bradley Justice, a very friendly and wonderful shop owner. We had a nice chat about Momoko and I learned he writes articles for Doll News, the current issue of which has a Momoko pattern in it. The dress pattern was displayed on a Momoko doll in his shop (see photo). Talk about darling. This fabulous store also offers a variety of other doll collectables for nearly any dolly fan. I bought a couple items, one made by DollHeart and the other a Jenny accessory pack. The other photo provided in this blog post is also from The Swell Shop.
Next, Fabric Friends and Dolls in Laytonsville, Maryland. This awesome little shop is tucked away in a small town, but it offers a large variety of dolly fun that can even be purchased online. If you are an Integrity, Tonner, BJD, or Momoko fan, this place is a must. The owner tries to carry the latest Seki Momoko, but will be trying to carry Petworks soon. While in this shop, I bought a Randall Craig accessory pack (because I just love glasses), YoSD wig for my new boy, Ruby Red Galleria Honee-B shoes, and an Obitsu 11 body. I was very tempted to buy a Tonner Cami wig.
Lastly, a shop I visit often, is Japantown Collectables in San Francisco, California. It is located on the first floor of the Kinokuniya Building and it usually has a Momoko or two in stock. Along with Momoko, this little shop carries other dolls, such as Jenny and J-doll. I believe I've even seen Pullip dolls there too. If you want to branch out a bit, they even carry a large variety of model kits and action figures. Of note, at the Kinokuniya Bookstore you can sometimes pick up a dolly pattern book from Japan with Momoko patterns in it (along the stairwell inside the store).
I've tried Little Tokyo in Los Angeles a couple of times and have yet to find a Momoko there.
Know of a store in North America that carries Momoko? Let me know about it via the Facebook page or shoot me an email.
