Blythe shopping directory blog feature.


I came home from the work tour to find a message on Etsy asking to use one of my photos on a blog feature.
The Blythe Shopping Directory regularly features and reviews sellers and crafters of Blythe goodies. This month they are focusing on Blythecon UK and posting about the stallholders that will be attending.

I was very honoured to see a lovely little piece about NaughtyPixie :D






I gave NaughtyPixie's hair another trim to level off the fringe a bit. It could probably do with a little more.

Her new Licca Body arrived yesterday and I love it! :D She also loves her new Blythecon Tshirt that arrived yesterday too!

I had better get started on another dress! I spent the whole day yesterday (after the obligatory car boot sales) mowing the lawn in the garden, still a lot of weeding to do.

Love,

Freya and the Pixies.

Nearly finished NaughtyPixie's makeover.
She has 4 new sets of eye chips, large pupil pupaparadise from MyLittleCustoms.com with gradient foils.
Her new scalp is an RBL Simply Peppermint (Forest's old one :D) roote with Candy Apple Nylon from MLC also.
At the moment she is wearing a lip sticker but I'll eventually get round to re doing her faceup, it's a bit worn and faded right now.


The hair still needs some trimming and evening off now and again as it settles but over all I am happy with it.


I am also working on transforming this Barbie carry case that I got for 50p at a car boot sale.
I am spraying it red then going to add padding for the girls (it will fit 3) I also have something on the way to decorate the front :D I also want to make little drawers to go in the compartments so that the accessories don't fall out when it's opened up.




Something else in the works in an appliqued doll carrier, here are the fabrics I have gathered so far.
It will be themed, can you guess what?

I'm a bit behind on my dress making and shop updates.
I got the last fabric for the new collection so I can crack on with that hopefully finishing this week.
I'd love to be like some of the big Blythe names and set a time to list in the shop and have everyone pounce on them lol, maybe one day.
Have a great weekend, we are hosting a BBQ for our friends Birthday today so I had better go and wash the spraypaint off my fingers.

New! Mini Mod Moped...er...dress. Old! Felt Squirrel addition.



Today's dress is the Mini Mod Moped dress.
My husband Rob chose this fabric when we were shopping a month or so ago. It wasn't my fave at the time but think it has a certain charm and certainly suits this mod style shift dress.

Pixie's hair cut and go go wellies add a certain something to the look too :D



I also made an addition to one of the dresses already in the shop today. This Linen Forest Frock has been there a while so I added this cute Squirrel, I love it :D

It's such a lovely day, I have big French doors in my workroom and the sun is streaming in. Very inspiring so I am working on a new collection :D Four down, a gazillion to go lol.

Lots of love,
Freya and NaughtyPixie

The world of NaughtyPixie

Hi and welcome to my new Blog.

I have been making and selling handmade clothes for Blythe for a few months now and decided to start a blog to let everyone know about new stock and the goings on in the Pixie sweatshop ….er…sewing studio.

Back in November I bought a CCE fake Blythe doll, I called her NaughtyPixie and instantly fell in love with but longed for a real Blythe girl of my own. I got Pixie first because of the price of Blythe and was worried about liking her enough.

So I managed to persuede my long suffering husband that I should have a Blythe for Christmas so along came Forest

I will put a seperate page up with details of the girls later

So it’s April now and I’d been having Blythe cravings lol, I secretly bid on a blonde ADG but lost out. My friend Robin offered me her bald Guava at a price I couldn’t refuse, so now I have 3 (sort of).

Poor Guava doesn’t have a name yet, I just call her baldy, her hair is on the way and I’m hoping a name will appear when she puts it on. She’s got a big Blythe ‘tude!!!

Oops, what about me?

I’m Freya. In the online Blythe community I’m go by NaughtyPixie.

Tweet me up Blythe peeps @Forest_Blythe

I am a costume maker and Wardrobe mistress for Theatre and historical reenactment. So I thought I would have a go at making clothes for Blythe.

Here is my etsy shop:
www.NaughtyPixie.Etsy.com

When I am not collecting and crafting for Blythe I am making costumes for humans as “Freya Pointer Costumier”. For a little about me and my background take a look at my website (and un updated blog eeep!) www.FreyaPointer.co.uk

I am also an avid collector of My Little Ponies (this is why my husband is suffering lol). In the My Little Pony online community I am known as GypsyWildFlower.
You can find me at the UK PONYCON forum where I am a moderator and long standing staff member. www.ukponycon.co.uk

Check it out and if you are in the UK try and come along in October.

I have just opened another etsy store for custom My Little Pony accessories:

www.Gypsywildflower.etsy.com

I make custom replacement My Little Pony accessories, mainly Flutter wings and Big Brother Bandanas. Soon I will be adding Princess Wands and So Soft stands to the collection so keep your eyes peeled!

I have a Flickr group for more photos.

If you already own one of my customs or repro accessories why don’t you join up and share your photos, I love customer photos
