Update: Natural Hair Couple Doll for Dinah!!



Here is wonderful update from the gorgeous newly wed couple, Dinah and her husband. Back in November of 2011, Dinah purchased a Natural Hair Doll Couple from my online store - Natural Girls United.  She took her new dolls and had a clothing designer - The Pieces Of Anarnia, create a wedding day outfit for her dolls, that would be perfect for her wedding cake table. Dinah happily reports that her wedding was amazing, and I can see by their beautiful photos that it was a gorgeous day.

Dolls by Angela Sutter & Annette Himstedt

I have always had a fascination with ethnic dolls that have features that reflect what an African or African American Woman, Man, or child would look like.  So when ever I see dolls that have features that  representation the culture, I like to share it.

Here are a few dolls from Angela's doll collection online yesterday.  Although they are beyond expensive (2k each... ouch!), they are still lovely dolls.

What do you think?!?

All I want for Christmas is...


A dreadlock Barbie! Yes, they exist. And why the toy markers haven't jumped on this market, I do not know. But out there, are a few folks, that are making these beautiful dolls through a repaint method. Which means to take a doll and change its appearance by changing the color, makeup, clothing and or hair. So with the Dreadlock dolls, the original dolls hair was removed and replaced with Mohair. It is a complicated process, but the results are beautiful. Since the dolls are rare, they can be a bit pricey.
