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 





The base doll an EBL Cinnamon Blythe Doll

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,

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...

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...

"Blythe Bible" From The Toy King, Jordan Hembrough! #toyhunter

    I don't even know how to begin on this one!  I thought I knew pretty much everything about 1972 Kenner Blythe Dolls.  Well actually I did not!  Little did I know that there was a lot more that had been tucked away for decades until recently.  I'm not sure if you guys remember me blogging about this amazing new show on Travel Channel called Toy Hunters ?  Well soon after that I discovered Jordan on Facebook and started asking him about the show and if Kenner Blythes would be featured.  He was so awesome and answered me, it's all on this blog, so I continued to support him and his show. Out of the blue he sends me a note this past summer stating that he had something for my Blythe collection?!!!  I was so very pleasantly surprised!!!  I had no idea that he would do that because what I did I did because I truly and greatly enjoyed the show.  I did not look for anything in return.  HOWEVER, it wasn't like I was gonn...
