September sun

Planowałam pisać przynajmniej jeden post na miesiąc ale wyszło jak wyszło :(

 Ten rok jest dla mnie prawie tak kiepski jak poprzedni ale wciąż się staram. 

 Ostatnio próbuję dodać trochę jesieni do stylu boho. Moja Rayna :)

Misty Day ooak doll

While I never watched any part of American Horror Story I really like style of Misty Day from Coven. Integrity Toys made many Coven doll but her, which is a shame in my opinion, as she sports amazing hippie style Stevie Nicks.
I decided to sew a few outfits inspired by some of Misty clothes. I'm planning to recreate 3 different looks of her, here is my attempt of recreating this outfit:

I don't have same looking fabrics so I used what I have.Top is in shape of butterfly, but it's hard to tell it from photos. Skirt is made of lace, upper part is lined. Under buttetfly top is stripe of elastic lace as a lace strapless bra. Hat is made of velvet. Floral shawl have over 70 tassels, each one is handmade (never again!). Scarf was handpainted in a pattern of American flag, it was very rushed and messy job so it looks terrible but have to do. The only part of outfit that wasn't made by my are shoes.

I'm sorry for posting so many photos!
Next time I will add photos of second outfit.

chestnut horse

My favourite season begun, so while enjoying September sun & October rust I was makin Autumn photos.

My cute Taliesin will show you how to do a chestnut horse, a very popular toy in Poland and whole Europe I believe ( at least it was popular like 25-30 years ago when I was kid).

Today I will show you how to make a chestnut horse.

European chestnuts are the best for it

You will need a knife, toothpicks or other sticks and of course chestnuts.

First you need to make a hole in one chestnut and five in other one - one on top, for neck and 4 on the bottom.

Connect chestnuts with toothpicks. Add legs.

Your horse is ready!

It should look like this.

You can use it as a decoration.

I have a bowl with an Autumn treasures.

Will add remaining chestnuts to it.

And horse!

There are leaves, chestnuts, pines canes, this chestnuts horse and small wooden hedghog.

That's all!

Bye! Enjoy your chestnuts horses!

Etsy store

Dusting off my blog.Lately I'm not very active online, there's many things that keep me off internet - sewing doll clothes,looking after 11 cats (one will have an eye removal surgery today at noon), some 195cm longhaired guy with amazing body, meeting old friends, you name it.

Anyway, nust finished another bunch of dresses for my very few ladies (and for Etsy store too), as always neckleging my poor guys. Majority of them is lying nude in a storage box, yet I just ordered another 4 hommes from upcoming Integrity Toys convention, seems like they are addiction. One day I will sew each of them at least one complete outfit, I promise.

Was trying to make some interesting photos of new dresses but I failed miserably.

I'm selling some of my outfits on Etsy - www.etsy.com/shop/moonandthememories
