Atelier Momoni

I think that's going to be such a pretty one!
I am probably choosing petal for Somnia and cocoa for Minireira.

 

I'm going to put on layaway a miniReira and I'm having problems with choosing which skintone too. Toffee is beautiful but I have a Reira in toffee. Then sand and fresh look good too, and cocoa...I'm having a hard time deciding ^^

Sharing my momonita, Soria

 

@mlefever she is gorgeous

 

She looks amazing

I'm pondering KittyM. Didn't bond with my 'Nita but I'm longing for another in the same size. Had considered Reira & Somni but their faces didn't call out to me either...

 

@mlefever - Love the boots. Where did you find ones that fit her? My Somni is so jealous...

 

When I first saw Somni, I wasn't really a big fan because I wasn't looking for a fantasy doll. But now I see her, I'm more attracted to her face and hand sculpts than to Momonita's. I'm thinking about selling or trading my steel Momonita, but am worried I'll regret it later. Maybe I need to make some clothes for her and give her a face up.

 

Yes you do

I have found that Ken doll boots and Ever After guy boots fit these gals nicely - I painted mine black...

I searched for black ken doll boots on eBay and found these! They were the last pair shipping within the US. I’ve ordered like 5 more pairs from china

Thank you everyone

 

So it looks like the pitusa july preorder might be starting shipping next week! I'm so excited to get her since I've been hoarding barbie clothes since july

 

I'm not ready!
I'm planning to sew some stuff. Do you think I can use Momoko patterns?

 

@toveb I think so! As long as they're not too restrictive at the hips

 

Yes, I found that comparison photo Lola posted some years ago. It seems they are both triangular, but opposites: Momoko wider over the shoulders and narrower hips, Pitusa line narrow shoulders and wider hips. I think I will stick with looser dresses and tunics, maybe some stretchy tights or adjustable trousers.

 

I also found this super good tutorial for a simple pants pattern that fits wide hipped girls

 

@toveb I've had some luck with curvy barbie clothes fitting as pants and leggings. Etsy has some patterns available for curvy barbie.

 

does anyone know the best place to get 6mm eyes? I've tried looking around some of my usual places but momonita has just such small eyes

 

i'd love to know that too. my fav place used to be safrin doll eyes, but she doesn't seem to be making them anymore

 

Try Dreaming Tree Studios on Etsy. She's been working with me on eyes for my Somni, and has been REALLY helpful.

 

Thanks! They look fantastic

 

Hi! I got the same problem. Trying to figure out what are the best options out there. So far Etsy's shops GlassEyesOnLine, Magic DIY, FLEURDELYSDOLL. I think I'm getting a pair from FLEURDELYSDOLL, they are really nice.
