Dolls

The Blue Fairy 7

Technical Specs:

Type of Doll: Barbie that was purchased used from a thrift store.
Size: 29 cm/11.5 inches
Hair: Blonde
Eyes: Green
Lips: Pink
Outfit Description: Wears Barbie Swan Lake outfit. The necklace is really a "Best Friends" ring that originally came with a Dawn doll (which was an early 2000's re-release of a classic 1970's doll). It was made out of beads and elastic so it worked really well as a doll necklace. (There were two such rings total. The other ring was given to the Purple Fairy 6 to wear as a necklace.) Fairy wings were made out of polymer clay then glued on the outfit.

Date I Finished Customizing This Doll: June 3, 2006
Sold: 2006 Crafty Bastards Festival, Washington, DC, October 1, 2006

Here is what this doll looked like when I first bought her from the thrift store.

Here is a back view of the doll as she originally looked. You can see how wild her hair was before I poured boiling water over it to get it to lay flat.

Here is the doll after her makeover.
