Winter Fashions

Hello there! These are our new winter fashions....
Infinity Scarf made by Bella

 Winter Coat by Bella

 Buttons are handmade with polymer clay.

Fancy Dresses

Here are some new fancy dresses we made! Hope you like them.

This dress was made by Grace. We found the fabric in the fabric remnants aisle at Joannes.

 This dress was made by Bella, and is much more in season than Grace's. :)

 We got the fabric at Joannes, and the sash there too! All their Christmas ribbon is 75% off.

 Another dress by Bella.

What do you think?

Later

Hey guys! Our sister is in not home right now, and she unfortunately took the camera with her. So we won't be able to post for a little while, but we'll be back soon! Next up: two new dresses or recycled leg warmers and sweaters!

Miniature Gingerbread Houses

These are some miniature gingerbread houses we made! We made them at our library for the annual Christmas Tree Festival. They are really cute and easy to make! I guess technically they're not gingerbread houses, since we made them with graham crackers, but whatever.

Lots of Pie

These are some pies that Bella made, which unfortunately made me really hungry.....
Key lime pie

And pumpkin pie!

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!!

WE ARE OBSESSED WITH OUR GLUE GUN!!

This is a really fun way to recycle old spools and fabric scraps! The only other thing you need is a glue gun. And hands.

Here are our miniature stools! They look really cute by miniature vanity tables, or just by a miniature table. Or just by themselves.

They're really quite easy! Just stick some cotton (or fabric scraps, that's what we used and it worked fine) on the top and glue a larger piece of fabric over top of that. On some of ours we also added a lace trim.

Barbie Clothes

Hello there! Grace is back from Rome and so we're ready to start blogging again!
Here is a lovely pink dress by Bella.

 Want to know the best way to find cheap fabric for doll clothes? The fabric remnants aisles at craft stores! They have a lot of nice fabric there, and a good size for dolls!

This is a Dorothy costume Grace made. (yes, I know it's not Halloween anymore:) But it was when I made it!

 I couldn't find any buttons small enough, so I made these out of polymer clay. Then I just glue gunned (is that a word)? them on.

Clay Dessert

Here are some new clay desserts!

 

                                                                Vanilla cake by Bella

                                                                 Peach pie by Bella

                       Candy canes and sticks by Grace (I know they're really out of season)!

More Clothes

 Dress and lace cardigan-ish thing by Grace, necklace by Bella

 I (Grace) am not good enough to sew sleeves yet, so pretty much all the dresses I make are sleeveless. It's kind of embarrassing because.......

                              Here's Bella's shirt. With sleeves. Oh yeah, she made this skirt too
