More Fashion and the Photo Contest Prizes!

Hi! SO sorry I haven't posted. I've had tons of rehearsals, and
yesterday at my dance studio, we had a pizza party! Me and my friends got to
perform dances we made up! I was in "You Can't Stop the Beat" (I learned that dance in one class)
and "Calling All Angels" (by Train)!
We did awesome!
(if you want to know more about it, just ask)

Okay, so today, I wanted to show you a skirt I sew!

32 Followers and 4000 views! :D

Hello! So I am SO SO SO pleased to announce... I have 32 followers! Thank you so much!! AND I have over 4000 views! To celebrate...

Tip #58...Hair Styling Special! Here are a series of hairstyles that will look great on your doll(s)!

~Rebecca's Do: French Twist

First, brush your doll's hair.

For Rebecca, because she has curls, I took 2 and set them aside.
That way they will be left out of the french twist.

Gather the hair that you're going to use.

Twist and pull the hair upward.

Tuck in hair, and add pins. Ta Da!

~Julie's Do: Twisted Half Ponytail (I made this on up)

Take a small section of hair by your doll's ear.
Do this on both sides.
Twist the pieces in opposite direction.

Take the twisted strands and braid them together.  Put a clip or hair tie on the end.

~Nikki's Do: A Twisted Ponytail (with a 'poof' option)

After you brush your  doll's hair, split it as you would to make a
half up half down hair do.

Twist, then pin.
*OPTIONAL: You could poof the hair if you want.

Gather the hair and put it into a ponytail.

You could either re-pin the twist to make it lay flatter,
or just take the pin out.

I hope you enjoyed this post! Thanks again to all of my wonderful followers!
