Major flower headband update

Long time no see!
I have been busy with all sorts of stuff, but that is of no relevance for this post. Possible only to justify my irregular / rare recent updates. Apologies about that.

A little holiday and those many materials I got for headbands made it possible to get on the business. Finally if I may say. Sketches have occupied my table, but nothing concrete was created until just very recently. Better later than never, right?

Idaheika's Ceylon modelling roseband with feathers

I was reminded about the fact that IDOLL is approaching. Tsukifly stock - headbands, jewellery and clothing will travel there for sale. I am eager to see how Tsukifly brand will be received there. Event prices may be attached on some products. Prices will be considered closer to the event in more detail as to minimize the effects of possible currency fluctuations.

First I will note that stock of around 25 OOAK Tsukifly headbands will be there. Some examples may be seen from these pictures. Mostly SD/Pullip/SG sized, but as they can be gently adjusted any design will fit smaller dolls as well. Whether SD design is plenteous on an MSD/Tiny is another matter though. Depends what one is looking for.

personal favourites

Rose cupcakes - may be tied on doll's head,
waist or even owner's wrist! 

To my eyes these newer headband designs include plenty of foam roses together with different paper flower, feather, ribbon and/or lace details.

Sets of wreaths - two smaller, two bigger

Curious design in MSD/Tiny size

This time I wanted to make few in several different styles so that there would be larger selection of choice. At least for those who get to see the whole stock. These newer ones are exclusive for IDOLL. Only after the doll fair any remaining ones may be offered for sale.

Few simpler designs

Some prototypes will be there too. Like Rose cupcakes, two of them, which came out with rather varied list of possible usages. Alongside of rich rose/flower filled headbands are some simpler flower band designs as well as few wreaths - four in total.

Longer, but not too heavy in detail. 

What comes to Tsukifly clothing stock it seems all those that are still around will be send off. Next weekend will show whether I am able to finish any new pieces in time to be included in the sales stock. Sketches for few supergem sized dresses are around, one for DDS size.

I hope this picture filled post is able to give you some idea of what will be available in IDOLL as well as what has been happening in "planning / preparation line" of Tsukifly despite been somewhat quiet lately.. Please keep checking back. I am going to update some pictures of what will be send in total.

Doll crew got a new member as well. She arrived in March, but while she did not have anything in right size to wear I was unable to take any proper pictures. Here is Ella (FL MNF Mio) and thus we finally have a MNF size model in around. Therefore we proudly present the first MNF sized Tsukifly dress - prototype so it is without tags and with minor errors. This may give you some idea what is coming. Currently I like to experiment Babydoll / Empire waist styled dresses. Something with buttons has been in my sketch book for a longer while Hope to see something done at some point as well. Plans are there.

Decorative flower headpieces

If you have checked Tsukifly's Store regularly you might have noticed that I have added few new designs after the headpieces I introduced in the previous post. After that post the blue one pictured at the bottom found a new home. I am happy and its currently waiting to be shipped.

So, encouraged by some of the comments I got concerning the previous headpieces I wanted to try a bit more decorative ones with more details. This naturally meant more flowers. Also tried out some new color combinations.

Only white flowers. I must say I like the bridal look of this one.

This one is my favourite out of the four new ones. Used colors are blue, white and gray.
Seems to go well with Luella.

This one is the most extensive, the Store has a better picture of the details.
Used colors are pink, white, gray and blue.

One with less details and big flowers to balance out my day :3

Almost all of the new headpieces have been listed for sale as well. I will also post the last one with less details later on. Currently I am working on a complete dress set for Supergem girls. Unfortunately that is the only size I have a model for at the moment. All my girls are elsewhere except for Luella and I am eagerly waiting to get back to them once my summer holiday begins at the end of next week. During my holiday I have bunch of plans and I wish to take more creative photos. Inside photos aren't really what I like to take, but in the absence of an alternative... Well, have to take those for a while. Anyway, the dress set will be OOAK white rabbit 'girl' version. Just to reveal something about it.

Tsukifly Mix&Match and headpieces

I have been inspired lately.
Unfortunately I have currently no access to any sewing machine so everything must be done by hand.
This takes time and effort, however, I consider the pieces made by hand as good in quality as those done by sewing machine. Very old fashioned ways, but that was how it was done before sewing machines.

Some of the new designs have been added to the store.
Recently my good friend featured Tsukifly's Storenvy shop in her blog. Thank you!
Please take a look, also for cute giveaways.
Her blog is named Caketown ~

She was also the one to introduce me Storenvy. I have been greatly inspired by the whole thing although I am still a bit unsure how the whole thing will start to work in the long run. Something that I have to see during longer period of time.

I was asked to do some Mix&Match with Tsukifly clothing. As I now consider I have enough stock around to try them on I also discovered that the skirts made in SD/SD13 size do fit nicely also on Supergem girls. Luella (Soom MD Cuprit) is wearing all possibly by me. The flower headpiece was done today, the choker has been listed for sale and the skirt and top will be there at some point. It is challenging for me to get whole pictures to function. I prefer close-ups. But my point here was that all the pieces can be worn together and are thus quite functional in my opinion.

Headpieces - Today's project

Well, not all were done today, as the first picture shows previously made pin with a beaded dragonfly and flower details. I just needed to get proper pictures of it. Had not done that yet. Luella is also wearing the black choker for the pictures so I got that one pictured as well. Happy about that.

 Okay, these two headpieces were the ones I made today. I wanted something with a summer touch to it. Lace was used for the band itself with nice (and big!) flower details. I also love things that hang and therefore both of the pieces have something hanging from them. The other more than the other :) The pink one has a small pink ribbon and plain gold ring details, not really visible in the picture though (sorry!). The blue one had Alice in Wonderland white rabbit, chair and playing card attached on the other side while the other side has a spoon and a clock details. More of a theme headpiece.

I don't know about you, but I am complete fan of these headpieces.

It is likely that I will do some other colors and designs similar to these.

I also welcome commissions if there are any specific color combinations/designs you would like to see.

Always open to try out everything new.
