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! 🥂✨📸
Happy
New Year!!! 🎉🥳 Gus, Sinatra, and cousin Lucian are grooving in the
New Year, with the festive glitter of sequins and rhinestones!! ✨🎶
I’ve been delighted by all the amazing dioramas and finely crafted miniatures I’ve seen here on Instagram, these past months, and I am very excited to see what you all create in the coming year! Thank you all, for being there with your comments, requests, and wonderful messages! You all are awesome! Here’s to a New Year full of hope and joy!!! 🥂✨
Hey you all! Look who’s got a #madetomove physique now! Lucian’s been hitting the gym and limbering up, this holiday season; and he’s gone from 5 points of articulation to 22! 🤸🏼🐇👟
A big thank you to my friends here on Instagram, who helped out with customizing advice and encouragement! 😊 Now Lucian can jump, do a push-up, and raid even more of Gus’ closet! 😁
Warm
wishes from the cousins, in their bear sweaters, and Sinatra the
beagle! A very Merry Christmas to all who celebrate, and wishing
everyone a wonderful weekend!! 🦌🌲❄️✨
Lucian’s found the Nutcracker Ballet ornament I made for @adrian.dollslife ‘s Christmas nutcracker theme last year. It’s never too late to add another ornament to the tree. 😄
This chilly afternoon, Gus sits back in a @brioni_official inspired look. I really dig Brioni’s cozy fall/winter collection for this year. 🪑🎞📸
Gus’ chair is a 3D printed design by @stovallthedoll
The post office has delivered some extra cheer for Gus today. He’s headed back from the mailbox with greeting cards in tow, from @adrian.dollslife and @stovallthedoll. Thank you guys so much, and also @welcome_2_the_dollhouse, for your kind reply to Gus’ card. You all are awesome!! ✉️📬☃️🌲
Gus is busily writing out his Christmas cards for this season. This year, he went with a winter wildlife theme for the cards.

Bonus challenge! Sinatra’s beagle nose is hiding somewhere in this photo. Can you find it? 😆🐶
Gus just got this absolutely awesome chair, designed and 3D printed by the brilliant @stovallthedoll! It came carefully packaged, with the seat all ready for upholstery. I added a red mahogany finish, and a black faux leather seat. There are so many neat ways to model with a chair, and Gus is excited to try them all! 🪑📸✨
Gus and Lucian are joining in @grandmagetsreal ‘s Christmas Sweater Party, with teddy sweaters, inspired by @ralphlauren and the artwork of @didierfalzone . 🐻🌲❄️
I
collaged the bear motifs, with fabric, beading, and embroidery, and
have temporarily fastened them to Gus and Lucian’s favorite winter
sweaters. 😊
