I'm Working On My Selena Gomez Inspired Blythe Doll Custom ~ Updating My Custom Doll I Did Years Ago!

My Selena Gomez inspired custom so far! I already customized my EBL Cinnamon Girl so long ago but I wanted to update and I wanted a change so I ordered a new wig this morning and did a face up with chalk pastels for the eyes and cheeks and acrylic paint for the lips. I put on new false eyelashes and I'm going to pick out a new outfit for her to wear!


The wig I ordered today for such an amazing price and cheap shipping!  All the info is on Blythe411 The Original & Off Topic Blythe!

My original custom Blythe Doll that was cute I did years ago but I felt it needed an update

I can't wait to get my wig but it won't show up until March 20th!  I hope it comes sooner and not later!!!  Now all I have to do is pick out a new outfit or make something for my new custom gal!  I'm so excited.  I like that I can buy a wig and change the makeup every so often whenever I feel the need because I don't want to buy tons of dolls for one and I like change to be honest.  Plus it's much cheaper to update a wig, outfit and a new face up too!  Maybe even change the eye chips too!  I like the existing eye chips from before I changed on my original custom so I don't have to change them.  I did change the false eye lashes because the old ones broke down and I had to replace them.  I asked in the customization group if we can use regular makeup because I find the chalk pastels don't really show up on the eyes that much but regular makeup has oil and will stain the doll so I decided to pass on using it.  I did ask what I could do to make the chalk pastels stand out more on the eyes?  I will update this post if I learn of anything.  


I don't want to freak out my husband anymore with my bald custom Blythe doll so I put an old wig on her in the meantime while waiting on her Selena looking wig. Lol I have a 1972 blonde Kenner Blythe wig I'm going to try on her too!  My Selena is my custom Blythe doll wig girl!  So much fun!!

Well that's it for now!  I hope you all have a wonderful day or evening!  Blog again hopefully soon!

Luv,

Blythe Doll Care & Tips ( Stains & Storage )

There is so much information out there concerning Blythe doll tips and care that I thought that I would combine what I learned from my own experience over the years and all that I found out from researching the web into this single blog. Storage - When storing blythe dolls it seems that often there is a chemical reaction with plastics that causes melting. So when storing or traveling with your dolls, please be sure that the doll is not touching other plastic (stands, shoes - especially Rosebuds, dolls arms & legs, etc.). Plastic from the face has even melted when the legs of another doll has touched, so please do not store together or any other part touching will melt the doll if stored, it is ideal not to put the dolls together and keep separate. I wouldn't even store the doll contacting the dolls own arms and/or legs to the face. Some even wrap their dolls in a piece of cotton. Stains - Please be careful of denim, tights and black & red clothing. They are probl...

The "Blythe Bible"

I was sent a Blythe Folder containing pretty much the beginnings of Kenner Blythe Dolls information, by the Toy Hunter, Jordan Hembrough, for my collection.  He told me that he was sending me what he called a "Blythe Bible", a file filled basically with designs, pricing, handwritten notes, etc. from a former Kenner employee that he had acquired during one of his hunts. The Toy Hunter said that I could post the contents to share with all Blythe Collectors too and he also told me that it's been over 40 years that it was not subject to any copy write restrictions. It's all photocopies that I have, with a few color copies, and not the originals, but they're still great for referencing! If you are a major collector of Blythe dolls this is probably like plastic crack for you. lol Others may not really care about these but I did find them very interesting myself. He sent it to me a few years ago but unfortunately it wasn't the right time to post it with all that n...

Products That Help Reduce or Eliminate Yellowing On 1972 Kenner Blythe Dolls And Link To Blythe411 Reduce The Frizz Tips.

On Blytheworld Facebook my facebook dolly friend, FiFi Latrixabel, posted she had won a yellowed blonde Kenner Blythe, her Lemon girl, and is attempting to bleach her dolly to have her go back to the original skin color face plate.  She is using Pearl Drops but there were other suggestions too.  I logged it on my Blythe411 Facebook group with permission from Fiona and another member that had some tips. Pearl Drops "Worth a try until I can get my stuff together for a major skin bleaching session." Fiona W.  Snipped from Fiona's post on BlytheWorld with her permission. Update pic of Fiona's lovely blonde kb!  I think the yellowing is fading with the pearl drops and the doll is looking very lovely!  I can't wait to see the after pictures :D "The formula is called RetroBrite. It removes yellowing from older plastics and returns them to their original color/state. Hope this works." Adrian D. L. Snipped from the following thread with permi...
