Gus is lounging with his cousin Lucian, sipping caffè macchiato on the opening day of Pepper’oncini cafè. 😎☕️🇮🇹
Congratulations to @pepper_dollcrafts, on the completion of the new Tuscan doll cafè!! 🎉
Scroll to the last pic, to see my attempt at miniature barista art. 😄
Gus is switching to
vacation mode. 😎 He’s heard there’s a chic new café, called
Pepper’oncini, opening soon. He wants to be there to try it out on
opening day. ☕️
I’m looking forward to the opening party on Friday, hosted by @pepper_dollcrafts.
Lucian delivers the drama 🎥 modeling a bespoke waistcoat, that I just completed this weekend. The waistcoat is part of a custom 3 piece suit with coordinating shoes, which are still in progress. 😊🧵🪡📍
Yesterday, footage from
the menswear runway presentations for F/W 22, started going up on
YouTube, and more shows are streaming and getting published this
weekend. Gus and Lucian don’t want to miss a single one! 😄 Do you
enjoy watching runway shows? I love seeing the different fabrics in
motion, spotting trends, and figuring out the “story” or mood, that a
designer is presenting through their styling, music choice, and set
design.

Gus is keeping warm on this chilly afternoon, in a soft oversized rugby sweater, made from a sock.
😄☕️🧦
I
used a mashup of two patterns for this one: the bulky sweater pattern
for the sleeves and body of the sweater, and the polo & rugby shirt
pattern for the collar and button placket.

Gus is modeling an exciting new bespoke project, just finished, and on its way to it’s new home. 😀 This one took me a long time to complete. Almost every seam is top stitched by hand, with more decorative top stitching here and there, and each Ayrshire cow spot is hand painted as well. The jacket is inspired by an Adidas Ivy Park denim cow print jacket (swipe to see it). The lilac color is a challenging one to photograph. I think the actual color is somewhere between these two photos. 😄🦄🐄
The new quarterly issue of #dollslifemagazine, is here, linked over on @adrian.dollslife ‘s bio!! 😃 It includes both a fashion editorial with Gus and Lucian, and my 2nd interview about the scale model pets of #dollstagram, featuring @stovallthedoll ‘s adorable mini pack.🐾 A huge thank you to @adrian.dollslife, for crafting another beautiful magazine!! 📖✨ Read the whole edition here.
Last year was an exciting one, photography-wise. I learned a lot, and tried out a lot of new ideas. Here are 9 of my favorites from 2021. Gus and Lucian went on all sorts of adventures in the scrapbook paper studio; from ski trips and ocean voyages, to walking the Hermès runway. They’d like to thank you, as would I, for all your encouragement and enthusiasm throughout the year! Here’s to many more fun pics to come! 🥂✨📸
