I swear, when I'm out by myself, I look for miniature items or things that I can use for my dolls. In this blog post, I found three things.
This display case with a clock! I thought it would be a nice backdrop for a fashion or tourist photo shoot. It was really heavy, and quite pricey for my budget so I didn't get it. But if I get motivated, I could totally craft one.
A laptop spotlight! It would probably look great on a photo shoot doll scenario. It's something you have to plug to a computer though so I don't think I could use it for my own shoots, and I decided not to get it. I don't need my laptop to occupy my desk just so I could turn this thing on.
This one, I did get though. It's a fairy door set! I didn't even know such thing exists until I looked it up online. There are actually people who purchase this stuff so they could decorate their house with a fairy door. Amazing!
The box is heavy, and the door is actually made of concrete or something. It sure is solid!
I later found out that the door is too short for Lottie, boo!! But I just had to use it as a prop so I just made adjustments for the photo shoot!
Here is my new Lottie doll, Forest Friend! She's a gift I received from the Lottie team for joining their Instagram takeover! Thank you, Lottie Dolls! She's so cute!
I found a white polka-dotted hard green felt, and I thought it would look nice together with the pink door! It totally worked!
This is the first time I used the orange plastic flowers I bought from the department store. They are cheap and just the right size for my doll photos!
I was experimenting with the light, by the way, so I have similar photos but the shadows and lighting are quite different!
I had a miniature cactus, which I thought would look cute on Lottie's lap!
Here's how my set looked like. On the photos you couldn't see the grass on the ground. That's because I didn't want to show the box I used to raise the door higher so that it would fit Lottie. It would have been really nice if the door's size was a perfect fit. I would have had more fun taking photos.
In other news, I got a new secondhand doll, by the way, lol. It's Mrs. Heart from the Barbie Heart family. She has a unique looking face mould! I still have to work on her hair, and her lip paint has been scratched off so I have to do some repaint as well.
And I'm not sure if it's pushing through but a relative coming home from Canada bought me a gift: it's Lucky from the Spirit Riding Free doll line! I'm so excited to get her, if I do get her, lol, because she's articulated and we don't have Spirit Riding Free here in the Philippines!! Fingers crossed!
Great set up!
ReplyDeleteThank you, April!!
DeleteI thought of you today, when I was thrifting and found a new in package Lottie outfit for $1 CAD. It's a beach outfit with a snorkel. I don't have any Lottie dolls, I can send it to you if you are interested! I've been away from the blog for a while!
