new line...Dolly Crisis Dresses!

Even more important than economic crisis mumbo-jumbo, is the hard hitting Dolly Crisis! Now...we have all been doing our part to help out (such as jillybug's Wear It Again Wednesday group)...and I've decided to take action too.

We all like getting new dresses for our little ladies in the mail...but sometimes the cost is just too much to bear. So, I have been working for days on a new line that is both fun for Spring, and affordable!

Each dress sells for just $10 a piece INCLUDING shipping anywhere!
Buy two, save $1. Buy 3, save $2. Buy 4 or more, save $3.
PLUS, with any purchase of a Dolly Crisis Dress, add anything from my closet clean-out (see older posts on this blog) and it still ships for free!

Dresses are fully lined (in the bodice) with natural muslin, and close with a snap. Each one is one of a kind, and all fabrics are only used ONCE (one bodice piece, and one skirt piece).

Karat (EBL Saran custom)

I would like to sell my lovely amazing custom EBL, Karat. Her BIN price is now $275. I will accept layaway terms (TBD based on if I know you, your available feedback, how often and how much you can pay)!! Layaway available for a BIN of $325.

Karat

Most of her work was done by the awesome killertomato_73. The only thing I personally changed was I gently sanded off her eyeshadow (the MSC spray had made it look foggy) and replaced it with subtle pink cat-eyeliner in acrylics.

Karat

Here's what's been done to her:

*full saran reroot (I believe the color is called "Orange Blossom") on original scalp...very thick (but not so thick as to get that "reroot" look...you know what I mean) and lush, beautiful thatching, teeny plugs in what I believe was lock-loop method

*airbrushed copper eyelids and vibrant pink blush (sealed with MSC)

*pink lips painted and glossed so perfectly you'd swear they were stock, in a cute nearly-kenner shape

*new thick beautiful eyelashes

*four new custom sets of foiled eyechips (not sure the exact names of the colors): blue, green, lilac, and golden yellow

*sleep eyes and 2 custom pull charms on strong, smooth wire

*she comes with the dress shown in these pictures, which I custom made for her (converse shoes are NOT included!)

More pictures can be seen in her flickr set here.

I charge exact shipping (insurance required). Please email me at courtney_janelle@hotmail.com if you have questions or would like to put in an offer. Thanks!

Shipping info for small items

Shipping for items purchased from a closet clean out, or any fabric or sewing trims:

Within the US, it ranges from $2-4, depending on the size of the package. If the total is very high or it is a high-priced item, I may require insurance, which would add about a dollar to the cost of shipping. I try to keep everything reasonable and eat a lot of the costs myself, so please just contact me with items you'd like to purchase and I will give you the lowest shipping quote I can. I also generally include delivery confirmation, unless the package has less than a $10 value.

International packages range from $3-5, and because of this low cost, unless you request (and pay for) a safer shipping option, I cannot be responsible for lost or STOLEN packages. I have never had this happen to me and I hope it never does, but I just want to make that clear!

These shipping prices do not apply to dolls being sold, which will have their own shipping information listed on their post.

Email me at courtney_janelle@hotmail.com if you have any questions about shipping prices/methods.

Skate Date (SD EBL)

Jim has been promised to a new home, but will be hanging out with me for a while in the mean time. She is no longer for sale! Thank you for your interest!

Jim's new outfit (2/3)

Jim is in beautiful condition. She has been switched out to a licca body, but her head has NOT been opened (just loosened the neck area enough to pull out her EBL body and replace it with the licca). She has all her original makeup, eyechips, hair, lashes, etc. As you can see in the above photo, she came to me with the signature unruly Skate Date hair, so it was washed, conditioned, and curled (not boiled...just left to dry for several days). It looks and feels incredible now, as you can see here...

She has very wispy bangs, which is unusual I think...not many Takaras that I know of have bangs like this? And I've even seen many Skate Dates have more "chunky" bangs. They are sweet and delicate like the rest of her.
