Mini K- A Custom Doll!

Here is my newest custom doll!

I was asked to make a "mini me" doll for a teenage girl in her soccer uniform.

 
She has a new body design.
She's about 15 and a half inches tall and is jointed in her shoulders.
I'm pretty pleased with this new design so I'm sure there will be more like her in the future!

 
 
My favorite detail is her shoes!
I debated for a long time how I was going to do her shoes...and finally decided to try painting them on. I'm so happy I did!

 
I decided to use an iron on transfer for her team name and number.
I'm really pleased with results and can't wait to make more dolls using the transfer sheets!


Isn't her hair pretty? It was a custom color from Jess at Tatilicous.
Oh, how she spoils me! :)

I'm letting her new home pick out her name, so for now she's just nicknamed "Mini K!"

I've got one more custom doll to finish, and then it's on to an army of pocket fluffs!

Pocket Fluffs!

If you follow me on Facebook, you will have already seen this guy...
I've been slow about writing out his blog post.
(Actually, I've just been terribly busy!)

Introducing the Pocket Fluff Monster!


This little guy is the perfect travel companion for anyone that's ever wanted their own pet monster.


He's just a bitty guy...about 4.5 inches tall and 3 inches wide.

 
I'd tell you he's in the shop, but he sold within minutes!
He's already having lots of fun in his new home!


My son helped me out with the photo shoot...and I just had to share what a wonderful monster groomer he is.


Plus, this gives you an idea of just how little these guys are!

I'm SO thrilled by the positive response I've received for these little guys!
(Eight on the waiting list already!)
I've ordered a whole bunch of new fur colors, so don't worry, there will be many more in the near future.

Anyway, back to work on the next two custom dolls! I'll be back soon to share them with you!

Oona, a Bubble Guppy inspired doll...and my own domain name!

Meet Oona, my newest commissioned doll!
I've always wanted to make a mermaid, so I was pretty excited when I was asked to make a doll based off one of the characters from the Bubble Guppies cartoon.
 
 


Oona is going to a very young girl, so I decided to give her felt hair instead of yarn.
She's actually my very first doll without yarn hair!


She's 9 and a half inches tall and just the right size for little hands to hold.
(At least, this is the size and shape that my one year old likes the best! She's already made it clear that I better make another one for her!)


Now that she's completed, I hope I can get that darn Bubble Guppies theme song out of my head!

In other news, I purchased my domain name!
That means now all you have to type is scribbledolls.com to reach my shop! Exciting, huh??

Now off to design the next two commissioned dolls!

Furgle, a new fluffy monster!

I was trying to clean up the giant mess Elaine left behind in my art room...and I noticed something has been shedding.
It took me awhile to discover the culprit.
He kept scurrying away from me, but I finally caught him!

This is Furgle!

 

 
 



I'm kind of in love with this little critter!
He and I had a wonderful time playing outside today (the nice weather helped too).

Furgle is looking for a new home in the shop!

I'll be back to working on the dolls from the waiting list next! :)

The Newest Muse, Elaine

Ah, so happy to be done with this lovely lady.
She was a bit of a diva about her appearance.
She even made me throw out the first head I made for her! No other doll of mine has ever demanded that!







Elaine was made from my "Muse" pattern.
She's around 24 inches tall and jointed in the arms, elbows, hips, and knees.
She was commissioned, so she'll be off to her new home tomorrow!

I'm patiently waiting for some fabric to arrive for my next commissioned doll, so I think I'll spend the next couple of days making something for the shop!
(Hmm, now to decide from my long list of things I want to create..)

Introducing Samantha!

Just finished this cute little custom order!
She's my very first doll with bangs. I'm pretty happy with how they turned out. :)



This is Samantha!


Samantha's favorite thing to do is play house.


She doesn't even mind doing chores!
(She claims it makes her feel like Cinderella.)


Isn't her hair a pretty color? Jess over at Tat-ilicious dyed it for me...because she's awesome. :)

My next project is a custom Muse doll. I haven't made one since August (love making them...they just take me forever to finish). She's already coming along though so hopefully I can share her with you soon.

Oh! Guess what! I just reached 100 likers over on Facebook! (Actually, 110 now!) I feel SO loved.
I plan on having a giveaway to celebrate. I'll share the details once I decide what to make for it!

Meet Kassie and Commission Info!

I told you guys I was working on several custom dolls right now.
Well, the first one is finished!

Meet Kassie!



Kassie likes getting dressed up and all, 
but what she really prefers is a good adventure outside.





 She also wants to be very clear that her name is Kassie with a "K."
Apparently, this is a very important matter to her.


I've decided to finally officially open a waiting list for my custom dolls and plushies.
I'm a stay at home mom with two very little kids, so I can only handle a limited amount of orders at a time.
I decided that a waiting list was the best solution for everyone.
You can put your name on the list by contacting me in any of my various locations- etsyfacebook, or email -scribbledollz AT gmail DOT com (that's the fancy way of writing it to help keep the robots away, hehe).
I'll let you know how many people are in front of you, then contact you when its your turn!

(As I'm writing this, there are currently five dolls on the list to be made. Can you believe that? I'm super excited!)
