SDG Sara with Green HG Glass Eyes

You may have seen Sara recently in my latest Showcase of the Green HG Glass Eyes.

Today, she’s going to help me introduce a new product to you and it’s one we are pretty excited about!

Recently you may have noticed that we released a new Eye Putty! This new putty comes in two colors, White and Normal, and is vastly improved over the old putty in hold and ease of use. I’ve been switching out all of our display dolls and I even picked up some for my SDs at home!

So, today I am going to show you how to change your SD’s eyes from hot glue removal to inserting the new eyes, using the new putty. Follow below for the tutorial!

“How do I?” Make a Beret for SD.

Tuesday, December 22nd, 2009

Hello everyone!

This week is a kind of tutorial which we’ve never covered before, sewing!

Kayo made this little beret from the Super Dollfie Pattern Book Vol. 2 to show you! She felt that this project was the simplest one to get started with. Sara is modeling it for us here, isn’t it cute?

This tutorial is meant for beginning sewers, people who think “I want to make things for my SD, but I don’t know how!” So, I’ll be going over some basic terms and techniques with you.

This is a long one with a lot of explanations. Hang in there and I’ll try to make it as easy to follow as possible!

HG Glass Eyes Showcase ~ Green

Friday, December 18th, 2009

Hello again everyone!

Here it is, this week’s and the last HG Glass Eye Showcase!

Thank you so much for staying with me all this time. Make sure you stay ’til the end so you can find out what kind of items we will be showcasing next!

Our last HG Glass Eye Showcase is Green!

Green is a color that is kind of in between a fantastic and natural color. It is a vibrant color with natural variegations in the iris.   Generally, the color is lighter closer in to the pupil and darker as it moves to the edge of the iris.

All About Dollfie Dream, Redux

Monday, December 14th, 2009

We’ve made some changes to our “All About Dollfie Dream” pamphlet, updating the information to include our soon to be released DD Dynamite bodies, as well as adding additional information about DD for your convenience! These will be replacing the older prints, and will hopefully be even more helpful to both new and old hobbyists alike! As usual, they will be included along with first-time DD orders as well as upon request and in Showroom. One of these days I’ll make my sentences shorter.
