"Oh, we walked together, and talked together, and just before we say goodbye, he takes me in his arms, and then... I wake up."

Because there's no Princess Aurora, without Briar Rose! 🌹

She was another kind of challenge, but a challenge nonetheless 👀 This time I wanted to stray from the usual sweet expression, and went more with a "bratty" one 😁

Problem is, when trying to achieve it, it's so easy to actually step into "evil smile" territory 🤣

This repaint was actually my second attempt, after the first one I decided to take a day or two to really study her mold, and finally get what wasn't working...In the end, I went the hard way, and partially resculpted her face, while afraid to ruin a LE head, I knew I wouldn't have been satisfied otherwise, go big or go home basically 😅

For the dress, I've mostly kept the original concept in mind, with the same colors I remember from the VHS (the palette of the outfit on the restored version is too gray for my taste, give me the cream, the turtle dove, the beige, the maroon!!), saving the tiny spinning wheel embroidery on the corset...it seems like this doll has been one big experiment from start to finish 👀

In the end, I love how she turned out, and most of all I'm glad I didn't give up on the expression, I really hate to take the easy way, I know it would have frustrated me too much to leave untouched 😵‍💫

Better make that kind of decision at the start of the process than at the end 🫠

"Rose! Don't touch anything!!!“

“Touch the spindle. Touch it, I say!“

The anxiety level this scene is still able to make me reach is ridiculous

"And from this slumber you shall wake, when true love's kiss the spell shall break."

Those frames!! Exactly those two!! They are the inspiration at the very base of this doll, and I'm so happy with how she turned out, it's the exact vision I had in mind and I can't handle the squeaking, She's. So. Pretty!! 😭❤️

#makeitblue or #makeitpink ?

How about we make it both! 🎊

Here she is, Princess Aurora, finally complete ❤️

Aw gosh, you guys have no idea how obsessed I am with her!!

Okay, okay, a little info about this doll and how it came to be 👀

Obviously, I wanted to play with the blue/pink dress, and I actually picked this fabric almost three-four years ago I think especially for this project, but then it stayed on the bottom of the fabric chest for a long time, waiting for its moment, and it finally arrived!

For the general look (her hair color, her eyes, her make up and her color palette in general), you might notice that it's darker than what we are used to with any Aurora doll, and here's why: since I was a kid, watching the movie on the VHS, there was one single frame where she was showed sleeping in her dark room, at night, with impossibly gold hair, that kept me glued to the tv screen, I loved it sooo much! And when she finally opened her eyes at the end of the movie...Blue blue blue eyes, aww I was in love!!!

So yeah, while she is usually represented with purple/violet eyes and blonde hair, here I wanted to show that specific version of her, at nighttime and with little light, and here's the result 💜

I hope you like her, because there's a lot more to come! ❤️

"Tell me about the fairy court. Is there a prince?"

"Yes."

"He must be terribly handsome."

"Oh, he is."

Aaaand speaking of, Prince Cornelius joins the group!

Okay, time for the truth, who had a crush on him growing up?🖐🏼

I sure did, Don Bluth's movies had boys always oh so charming 🫠

"I'm not your toots, and I don't even look like a beetle!"

Now you do 🫠🦋

Here's the second 17" Thumbelina, Beetle ball edition! Her dress was an adventure, so many pieces, so many directions, so many pins poking my fingers 😵‍💫 In the end though, I think she's my favourite of the bunch, she's massive, colorful and so so pretty, I'm obsessed ✨
