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.

Momoko Dress Up Time: Toy Story Outfit (part 3)

This is the last of the three Barbie Toy Story 4 outfits I was able to find recently at a local store. In this post, a Momoko is wearing the “You’ve Got a Friend in Me” set. The skirt has a print of several Toy Story characters, including some who make a debut in Toy Story 4. The set is very playful and colorful. I thought the oversized white boots complemented the outfit well. The Momoko pictured is “Fireworks Date”. Have I ever mentioned I picked her up in Disney World, of all places? She was for sale in the Mitsukoshi shop in the Japanese pavilion in EPCOT. It was a strange but awesome place to buy a Momoko!

I was not able to get the fourth set called “Toy Story Alien Skirt and Top.” I am still on the hunt. It would be great to have all four. There should also be some individual pieces floating around at stores and I’ll try to find those, too.

Momoko Dress Up Time: Toy Story Outfit (part 2)

It’s time for one of my Momoko to get a wardrobe change. She’s pretty in pink in the new Toy Story 4 “Shepard Dress” set. The set comes with a dress with pink Bo Peep print, purse with sheep print, and pink headband. The Momoko put on a pair of her pink Mary Jane shoes to complete the outfit. It’s hard to say, but this might be my favorite Toy Story 4 Barbie fashion set. It comes close between the Bo Peep set and the Woody set found in this post.

Momoko Dress Up Time: Toy Story Outfit (part 1)

A few days ago, I was at a big box store in town and I spotted something amazing. Mattel had Toy Story 4 fashion sets for Barbie! I know Mattel is doing a lot of licensed merchandise lately for Barbie, but this one was just too super to pass up. Disney AND Barbie? Yes! I think there are four sets and I managed to pick up three of them.

In this post I have a Momoko dress in the “Woody Top and Overall Dress Set.” The set came with a Howdy Woody top, faux denim skirt with attached suspenders, red headband, and orange purse with cactus print. The skirt is a bit large, but it’s so cute on the pigtailed Momoko! The Momoko is wearing boots made for the doll.

Stay tuned for posts of the other two sets.

Polly Pocket Out of Sight Campsite Compact

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? ;)
