Hoping to finally get a new tripod — the old one is long gone.
Maybe I’ll film the crafting process next time.
For now, I can try to put together some process pics in Stories or a reel, if anyone’s curious.

Papier-mâché + acrylics/varnish. Taps almost like real peanut shell.

The shoes aren’t symmetrical — but no two leaves in the forest ever are.

4/4 (Not the Generation Girl one — a different Blaine. Yes, it’s confusing. Yes, it will be on the test.)
And Barbie officially breaks up with Ken
Mattel even hired lawyers. Not joking. Go Google their breakup
Cali Girl Lea ( handmade outfit) & Western Horseback Lea (original outfit)

3/4 And they’ve got actual human feet— proper ones, for strolling on the sand. Tarantino approves.
And there’s an interesting Ken.
Oh wait — Ken disappeared after his first swim, and now he’s been replaced by Blaine.

2/4 Time to rewind the VHS tape: BARBIE — CALIFORNIA GIRL (2003–2005) — deeply tanned vacationers who: sunbathe, surf, ride horses, sunbathe again, get piercings, dump Ken (I’m serious), and squeeze in some more sunbathing… before finally starting to truly relax.

❕No worries — the wings are plastic, and no fairies (or other creatures) were harmed❕

To those who asked: no, this mermaid is not for sale.
But four new and very different mermaid tails — all designed for standard MtM bodies — and they’ll be available soon #custommermaiddoll #handmadedolldress #barbiemermail

This tail is more flexible and soft than the previous one — it allows for proper splashes and flops. The costume even bends at the knees, unlike the Barbie Fashionistas body
Maybe someday she’ll get a proper Made to Move body too — just to wear this tail again! #mermaid #barbiemermail

🌼Not a single dandelion was harmed — they’re all made of foam.

Choosing a new one is no easy task.
This meadow’s full of dandelions, but they’re either too big or too small...
Finding comfortable attire is harder than losing oneself in a field where choices and decisions grow like stems.

Markus. 3/n. Summer attire that tells your story.
Today, I am a dashing dandy.
On my way to you, dear friend, I completely wore out my old hat — wind and rain gave it not a single chance.
It had been with me since the start of last month. Practically an eternity.

Outfits with layers — like their personalities. There’s even a sub-line where almost every girl has her own room, telling her story through the decor But personally? I love Tori for her sweet, round cheeks and that amazing two-tone blonde hair — part straight, part wavy.

(VHS voice-over)
BARBIE: GENERATION GIRL. You know — Millennium! That word was trendy like a Y2K bug: five minutes before and five minutes after New Year’s
These dolls? Actual characters. Even Ken—
Wait. No Ken. It’s Blaine.🤔
The quality? Impressive (hear that, modern Mattel?) #Barbie #Retrofriday

I made the sneakers a bit wider, so they’d fit over stockings. Modern Barbie feet didn’t evolve along with the new articulated bodies — they’re still tiny. So I figured I’d "scale them up" with shoes.
Also, this way they’re more universal: they fit Curvy bodies, Tori, Skipper.

As we all know, MTM dolls don’t come with shoes. The sneakers are now worn by Generation Girl Tori. As for the MtM yoga doll — she’s a mermaid now, so she doesn’t really need shoes anymore

A Day of Wandering
From above, these giants look no bigger than ants.
Their chaos begins to form a pattern,
as if stitched by an unseen hand.
The air is light — like a thought before sleep.
Up here, one longs more to see than to know.
