A Quick Announcement


Hey everyone, a quick announcement: I’m temporarily closing the Tiny Apparel Bespoke Waiting List for the spring/summer season. If you have already requested a custom project, don’t worry. I will continue to work through all the orders that are currently on the list. πŸ™‚

This summer, I will also be making limited edition hand-stitched pieces, as I have time, and listing them on my etsy shop. I’m also looking forward to sharing new sewing pattern designs in the upcoming season as well. Thank you all so much for the support you have shown me thus far! I’m excited to explore more of the world of miniature menswear design, as I streamline my creative process.

Tea Time

“🎢I’m a little teapot, small and sleek, here is my handle, ain’t it chic! 🎢”
πŸ˜œπŸ«–☕️🌿
Today’s #monday4dolls photo theme is: Coffee or tea? Gus drinks both, but for me it has to be tea. I love the smell of coffee, but the caffeine doesn’t do me any favors, so decaf tea is where it’s at. πŸ™ˆπŸ€£

Gus’ teapot is a beautiful design by @stovallthedoll, decorated to look like a set made by @ralphlaurenhome 🌿

April 1st

Happy April 1st! Gus is fooling around in the studio. πŸ€ͺπŸ’πŸͺ‘
No joke, though! These pants he’s wearing (part of a bespoke 3 piece suit) are made from officially the trickiest woven fabric I’ve worked with, to date.πŸ˜… It’s wiggly and slippery, but also stiff. It’s silky smooth, but it won’t hold a crease, at all. The struggle is real. It was the only fabric I could find in mini heathered taupe, though, so I’m truly hoping the end result will be well worth the time and patience it’s requiring! πŸ˜‚πŸ§΅πŸͺ‘
