Paintings Of Archways, Doors And Windows, 2003 (oil On Panel), Leon Morrocco

Using cardboard and black paper punch outs...

...I crafted two miniature shutters for my 1/12 scale Castle Tower dollhouse.

These shutters will eventually be situated near the two tiny windows of the small tower.

I used this Christmas decoration for lighting the small tower; see photo below, it temporarily decorates The Great Hall fireplace. I love it ❤️

These punches I used for miniature hinges and such for the shutters.

I love it when I use my craft supplies for different kind of crafts.

Work in progress: I'm building a Castle Tower dollhouse.

fall camping is awesome!

Building a versatile room for your bjd pictures.

I posted this in the Granado themed thread on Den of Angels, and I thought I’d add it here too for those who’d like an insight on how I built the “Treasure Room” for this year’s @doll-granado​ photo contest. Maybe those tricks can help you build your own bjd space for immersive photos: The room I built can be taken down to pieces; Most of it is made of cheap foamcore sheets. - So you have the walls, which are two separate pannels of 5 black foamcore sheets glued together with hot glue. In the photoshoot I simply covered them with fabric to simulate a tapestry. - Then I built two different set of shelves in black foamcore, (foamcore and hot glue are really easy to work with and aren’t expensive.) Those two pieces are the most difficult to store afterward, but depending on what you make as furniture, you can use them to store your own stuff - The practical part of using foamcore is that you can pin stuff in it. This is how I made those little picture frame stick to the wall, the mirror, the unicorn tapestry and the curtain. When you’re done with your shooting, or if you need the space, just unpin everything and put them away. So you have a base set made of foamcore, and by changing the fabric on the wall and the deco around it, you can morph it into many different room design. Now let’s add a Granado face to this post: Funny fact: The two artwork on the right are actual paintings that were stolen and NEVER RECOVERED to this date “Poppy Flowers” by Vincent van Gogh, and “The Concert” by Johannes Vermeer Guess who’s the guilty party? hehehe

"sunsets are a promise that every day can end beautifully."

I had the day off so I got to play dress up! Finally!!

Fashionista 182 quickly becoming my new muse 💕 I wanted to use her as a "Barbie as Briar Beauty" and stick to pinks and such but anything you put on her looks incredible.

"Briar" is wearing:

Sheryl Meyer's main outfit skirt/dress and belt

Loves.Glam shoes from the Fail Fix doll line

and, the most precious item in all of my doll collection, a 1991 Disney Classics Cinderella's puffy sleeve top. I love Selkie dresses and I'm so happy I ever managed to save this top for all these years. It's older than me!

I'm still trying to get a hold of the whole doll photography thing but at least that mousepad repurposed as a doll rug was a great find!
