I'm usually such a homebody, especially on Monday evenings. But because I was working yesterday, I feel like I've already adjusted to the challenges of the new week. Just baked a loaf of sourdough bread and now I fancy a cup of hot whiskey cider so I'm heading out to hunt for one, haha. 🍹 What's your usual schedule for Monday evenings? Do you have special ways to unwind and get motivated for the next day? ☺️
Next month I'll be attending Christmas fair in Vilnius. It'll be just a second time in my entire career as a doll maker. I'm super excited about that, seeing how people react to my creations in the real world is very rewarding! But to be prepared and have a full stock of different dolls, I have work twice as much. Sunday was spent in the studio sewing festive creatures and I'm not even mad about that. I hope you're having a wonderful weekend even if some commitments stand in your way to fully enjoy it. ✨
This angel design is counting its third Christmas season! One of my most popular dolls in the festive months, I'm guessing because it makes quite perfect stocking stuffer. And there's still a lot of time to make them by yourself! In my Etsy shop, you can find a tutorial that will guide you through the process of sculpting and painting the face, sewing the body and putting it all together. Sewing pattern included as well. Surprise your loved ones with handmade angels this year. 😌🌟
My secret weapon against gloomy dark evenings - sweet elves filled with dried lavenders. 😌✨
A week ago, we had first snow here in Lithuania. ❄️ It was gone in a day and weather seems to become milder than you would expect for late autumn. But with the first snow, orders for these snowmen came too! I'm really excited to work on some winter-themed dolls. Winter Wonderland just started in my studio! ✨ Photo by: @dzydzydesign
I'm guessing these are the last two bats this year! I had so much fun making them and in the last two months made around ten of these cuties. Now I’m welcoming the season of angels and elves! Can't wait. Happy Halloween everybody, I hope you'll have a good one. 🦇🎃
This year I've started a tradition to take pictures of this doll travelling the world. Remember the Amelie from Montmartre and the travelling gnome? Well, it's almost the same thing, haha. ☺️ So this year I've been very lucky to visit Greece, Latvia and Poland and snap a few pictures there. Next stop - Italy, Milan! If you ever been there, or maybe you live there, I'd like to hear your recommendations what to see, eat, visit in Milan. 👏✨
Just added a new angel to my Etsy shop! This deep blue fabric is truly mesmerising. 💙 I paired it with silver wings and a silver ribbon - the iconic Christmas colours. It's hard to convey the shimmering silver in the pictures, I did so many shots and it still looks kind of white. Oh well. 😅 I hope you'll like it!
With Christmas season approaching I get more and more orders for these faces. And it makes me so excited! Most of my clients use them to make cute angels, elves and other creatures for their loved ones. In all of the letters, it's unanimously voiced what time-saver these faces are. So if you’ll decide to create some amazing dolls this year, let me make the faces for you! If you can, please tag me in the photos of your creations, I'd love to see them. 😌✨
Well, it seems the beautiful golden autumn was replaced with gloomy days. Good thing I managed to capture some of it by pressing the leaves between the pages of an old book. It reminded me how much I used to do that as a kid. Hunting for wildflowers and red leaves and pressing them in the books to safeguard the fragile beauty of nature. Later I would make postcards or tiny pictures by glueing the flowers on paper. Somehow I lost this childhood hobby over the years but I think I accidentally unearthed it just now. 😌🍂
