18 inch Boy Doll Clothes Fit American Boy Dolls

Even though it is very cold where I live, there are some very warm places still left on this earth like CA, AZ, FL.... so I made some boy doll clothes - shirt and shorts. I have custom American Boy doll that I purchased - Nick.  American Girl Doll Company just released 4 new American Boy dolls.  There are now 5 from AG company.

 I had a lot of fun setting up for the photographs and gathering photo props to go with the clothes.  My grandson likes to play with my doll photo props like the fishing pole, fish, trucks, cars, basketball so I had to look for some of the items. I buy small scale items to use for photo props.  Miniature toys are best size for doll photos.

I have these outfits listed on my Etsy Shop Stitches2Paint 

Dump Truck, Ninja Turtle, Basketball theme short sets

The Second Bundle Set I made is from a Nautical Theme 

Nautical Theme - Fish, Anchors and Blue Denim shorts

Do you have an American Boy Doll?  Have you seen the four new ones they just released?

As always thanks for browsing my blog.

Tutorial on how to Make Farmhouse Style Wooden Slice Christmas Ornaments

I am starting to do live FB post on my  Stitches 2 Paint Facebook Business Page and last week.  I am still new to learning to do live Facebook. I am branching out doing more creative things other than just sewing doll clothes.  I hope to inspire you to do the same.  My new designed Etsy Store Stitches 2 Paint and FB page names have been changed to reflect that Stitches 2 Paint.

In my second live Facebook I did a tutorial on how to make Farmhouse Style Wooden Slice Christmas Ornaments.  

I love the white background with black lettering paired up with red and black buffalo plaid ribbon

I love the Rae Dunn font she uses on her farmhouse dishes and accessories.  I purchased commercial license for a font that is similar that represent Tall Skinny letters to make these wooden slices.

There is a a free font on Dafont called The Skinny for personal use only but if you want to sell items using it then you will need to purchase the commercial license. There are some SVF Fonts also on Etsy to use with your vinyl cutting software.  FontBundles.net has a similar font called Overcoat & Snowflakes Extras that comes with commercial license also.

I purchased these round wooden slice/circles from Hobby Lobby to use.

Here is the live video I did on Facebook showing start to finish how I made them.  I show several versions of hand painting the letters and applying vinyl cut with Cameo machine.

Loving some Buffalo Plaid items for this Winter Because Baby Its Cold Outside

 It may not be cold in your area...Yet... We have been having a mild winter here in KY but that is about to change next week. So who's ready for Winter, Cold Weather, BABY ITS COLD OUTSIDE weather?

 Here are a few items I have made with Buffalo Plaid Blankets and Heat Transfer Vinyl Designs

 Door Hanger I made for my front door using a wood embroidery hoop, fabric, Heat Transfer Vinyl (HTV) and made the bow from ribbon.

 Let it Snow using Glitter Flake Heat Transfer Vinyl - the kind of glitter I like that doesn't get on you and everything else around you.

 Movie channel and a Hot chocolate kind of day. I purchased this design off of Etsy

Who Loves Sweater Weather? Love how this tin mug turned out.  I used April Blossom font and used my Cameo Silhouette vinyl cutter to make the design.

 Here are some Doll outfits I made with Plaid fabric.  Camille a Wellie Wisher Doll modeling the black and red Buffalo Plaid and its listed on Etsy GiGi's Doll Creations

 Below Grace is modeling this outfit that was a custom order for a customer. 

I am going to be changing up my blog and Etsy store  and adding a variety of items other than just doll clothes. I use to sell tooth fairy pillows monogrammed and burp clothes along with my doll clothes when I first opened up my Etsy shop.  So going to give it a try again.  Hopes it's not too confusing.  I think having two Etsy shops might be a bit too much for me. 

I have started using vinyl - heat transfer designs for other things other than just doll clothes.  I have started back to embroidering.  I bought a new embroidery machine, Brother Innovis 1400 E machine.  So I am starting to do more with embroidering.  I have also started painting wood decor/door hangers.  So I am wanting to start blogging about them and showing you some tips and tutorials that I have learned.  

As Always, thank you for stopping by and browsing
