Tried sewing for a Disney Animator’s doll. The striped knit dress turned out to look very much like a naval sailor shirt, but Rapunzel looks good in this outfit. I recently crocheted some fluffy earmuffs so her ears wouldn’t get cold.

I took a picture of my girls’ dolls—they are little L.O.L. Surprise dolls.

Surprisingly, these little things can “drink, pee, and cry.” Their clothes and shoes are also removed.

Finished the New Year’s beading project from a kit—a clock with bullfinches and winter rowan berries. Beautiful and bright—I like it!

I made two kusudamas today from kits with pre-made components and instructions. I am very pleased with such a fast and beautiful result.

Today I got this simple little owl keychain. Anyutka immediately attached him to his school backpack.

I photographed my latest sequin works. These are two trees from store-bought sets – an autumn maple and a black and white Yin and Yang tree. I really enjoyed working with sequins. The result is much faster than working with beads.

We continue to master Gift Machines. We decorated the frame with patterns made from Play-Doh self-hardening clay. It turned out beautifully and originally. Masha was pleased.

Today, I quickly crocheted this melange sundress for Rapunzel. Tried crocheting with textured stitches; they look great on an outfit. And this little one looks very good in lilac.

We have a new addition—I bought a Fashionistas series #47 Barbie doll. An adorable ginger with freckles, flat feet, and non-hinged knees. She has a funny plastic hat on her head.

Today I stumbled upon some very unusual pieces for my collection at the store. These are three small cloth dolls with stuffed bodies and vinyl arms and legs from the company LORI. Judging by the description, these are students from a ballet school. Their faces are adorable, they have glued-on eyes, and well-stitched little hairs. There was another platinum blonde there, but for a child, I didn’t think that hair color was suitable and I didn’t buy her. And the red-haired little one was bought right out from under my nose.
