Description
It was so amazing getting back to my very first base pattern and my Hakama pattern too. I had a lot of fun putting Kira together and seeing that my pattern still work as good as they did back then. But now I had the right haircolor for Izuru, not like before where I used this bright yellow.
This large Izuru doll was a commission for .
I really hope you like your little Izuru.
Thanks so much, thechocolatemarauder for giving me the chance to revisit my old pattern and work on Izuru again.

I think his feet are my favorite part.

My least favorite part of making a doll is the hair. It's sometimes really hard for me to get the desired look, and since I normally crochet the hair it takes a while for me, but I really enjoy making dolls, so even the bits that I don't like really are fun.

I have a new problem with making hair recently.

I hate it when stores change their stuff after having the same
thing for a while. Did you find a different type or a solution
or will you just keep using the new felt? Maybe a different type
of glue would work better?

I hate that too! They at least could ask me before. 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, I think I should personally be asked before MY stores change their products.
I'm not a fan of hot glue because I normally end up burning my fingers. (Maybe I'm
just a clutz ) I know for sure that I would burn my fingers if the pieces were as
small as I imagine the hair of your dolls to be. I guess maybe it just takes practice.
Whatever it is, I really hope you figure it out because I love to see your dolls.

I think I just...have to think of something else. I hate to burn my fingers and I haven't even thought about it so it would be better to just stick with the old glue and felt. Maybe I can fix the hair with pins until it's dry.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That would be cute! and really funny.
If you do end up pinning the hair while it dries, be careful!
I'm not sure if I'm just really bad at gluing things, but I tried
to glue material together and held them together with pins
while they dried. After they dried I couldn't get the pins off.
I ended up having to throw the whole project away. As long
as you don't actually get glue on the pins (or you're not me)
I should think that it will work out right.

I'm glad your good enough to remember
to take them out. I would get distracted
and completely forget to take them out.

Sometimes I set a timer on my ipod, but I tend to
forget to do that, too.

I do the same sometimes with my old smartphone I got from dad (it's only for pictures and playing but has no card in it for calls and such). But I forget that too. XD

I don't have a phone at all. Just a ipod touch that my brother
didn't want anymore. He was going to throw it away, and I was
like "WAIT!! I WANT IT!" and now it's mine... It's works really
well for what I want it for though.

It's so cool that a ipod touch can do so many things. 
Same story here with my dad and his old smartphone. He probably would have thrown it away or put it in some box to never be found again.

I've really wanted to decorate a case for my ipod. I think
it's called Decoden? Have you even made anything like that?
I'm just afraid that it will feel really weird and I won't want to
touch it.
but textures are a really important thing in my life. If I don't
like the way something feels I can't bring myself to touch it.
Like plastic bags...I HATE the feeling of a plastic bag.

Yes, Decoden is the work. 
But the process of gluing the stones is just what I love to do.
What I ended up using a lot are the little cans I decorated but with silicone and bigger elements. yuki87.deviantart.com/art/Deco…
When it comes to texture, I definitely prefer some kind of self-adhesive decoration foil or, if it has to be Decoden, then I would recommend half beads. They feel very smooth.
If I'm going to decorate the spare case for my phone, I'm sure I won't use it in the end, or just once to show off. *sigh* I have planned to put big roses and big half beads on it because they look so sweet and just like these fancy Decoden pieces I see here on dA. T^T

They all look so cute! And it's a really good idea to put
the decoden on things like containers that you don't
have to touch as often. Also, I think the fact that the
silicone looks like frosting is so cool! I'll have to start
looking for little things to decorate with. 
so much for the recommendations!!
container that I've been wanting to use for something
(I'm not even sure what) but I haven't used it yet because
I can't get the label off of the top. I'll definitely look into
decoden! Thanks again!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You're most welcome.
Maybe you can try letting the container with the label lay in oil for one night. That often helps the label to come off easier.

Peacock rhinestones? That sounds so pretty!
the two roses that you sent in the last package. Although, I still haven't gone
shopping for the other supplies yet.
That's a good idea, I never thought about that. 
decoden, so I'll try the oil on the next container that is being stubborn.

These rhinestones look like little peacocks and come in different colors.
Did I mentioned that I buy most of my rhinestones (except those) from China? There are so many rhinestones or gems or beads and whatnot, just for nailart and decoden. 
Oh I would love to see the roses used for decoden! 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
They sound so pretty! I was going through the craft store
and found a few rhinestones. I don't think any of them were
as small as yours, but at least I know where to buy some if I
every feel like putting rhinestones on something.
Ok, thank you!!

I put a wheel of these small rhinestones in your box.

Oh thank you so much!! It's so exciting! :Squee:
I'll have to get some silicone tonight and practice!

Did you got the silicone and how did it went?

I bought the silicone and found some really cool
sandal gem things. The are supposed to be glued
onto sandals, but the look like they would be
perfect as decoden charms! Although I haven't tried
to pipe it yet. I'll tell you how it works out when I do!!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I think I know these sandal gems! I never thought about using them for decoden, but you're totally right! They're probably great for that! Now I want to decorate something myself.
I'm looking forward to see what you're going to do with the silicone and the gems!

Thank you! I really hope you make another Decoden
thing! I think I'm going to make mine this weekend.
I'm so excited to try it!

*whisper* I just started on another decoden. Pale pink with pearls. It's the second cover of my Dads phone he gave to me.

I'm so excited to see it! I finished the Decoden, now just have
to take pictures of it!

I'm excited too, to see pictures of your Decoden piece!
Here is a WIP of my smartphone case sta.sh/030j50ya222
I think I'll add some smaller rhinestones and half beads later.

I've put the Decoden up now.
I'm so happy you sent my the peacocks. They look great with my
other stuff!
That's so cute! I love the little design you have!
with the pink so far, too!
piece!

I saw it and it's so beautiful!
Lately I haven't worked any further on my phonecase, but I wont forget about it!

Thank you!! I'm not sure what it's called...will this link work? www.walmart.com/ip/Dap-Alex-Pl…
This is the silicone I used. 
I also didn't get it to look right when I first put it on the lid, so I smoothed it out (kind of) but made sure to
still give it a lot of texture.
If you forget, I'll make sure to remind you a lot!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ah yes, thank you for the link! We don't have that kind of silicone here in tubes. Only in cans where you need a pistol (at least it looks like it) for. My dad needs to press it out because I'm not strong enough.
I love how you smoothed it but without loosing the special texture!
Okay, I try to have it finished soon!

This one is really hard to use too. As soon as I started I regretted
using it, but when I started the decorating part I had so much fun.
Thank you!
I'm looking forward to seeing it!

Getting the silicone on was the hardest part here too. 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's so much fun with the decorating! I'm not a very patient person, though.
When is came to letting the silicone dry, I had such a hard time. I just wanted
to touch it and look at it! And I even got the fast drying stuff!

Oh nail polish.
that dries in a shorter amount of time.
I don't make pies and cookies that often, but I almost always eat one when they are still
soft, gooey, and burning hot!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Same here, I also opt for the quick dry nail polish, but if you add another layer it takes forever (okay, five minutes) for it to dry.
I loooove gooey cookies. Hot and soft and sweet and....*goes off to put a cookie into the micro wave*

I just made some pumpkin cookies and bread yesterday! It tasted so good.
My dad brought some pumpkins that he grew to my house, so I got to work
and made the cookies and bread out of real pumpkin...

Ohhh that sounds yummy! I have heard of pumpkin seed bread but never of real pumpkin bread. ^___^ It's the perfect season for that now.
