M'aidez

Back to Biographies. M'aidez is a pullip Zuora. She has been modified with green eye-shadow and ginger wig, she has two wigs because although I found the one I like best I gave her peter pans wig to make her seem younger, more innocent and sweet. Today her 25cm obitsu came, I think the shortness suits her personality.

 M'aidez is a Fairy but she is very clumsy, she can't cast a spell without it back firing and as a result she has been stripped of her wings and sent to live amoung humans, in order to earn her wings back she must successfully cast 5 spells without them back firing. So far she has cast two but is only aware of one. She helped a dal fix her broken ankle and she unknowingly broke a curse, allowing Sid to become a doll again. She is a bit shy and quiet but she is sweet and means well. So far her only Friend is Toki, they don't know each other very well but their meetings give them the opportunity to talk about the paranormal. Being a fairy she does have some limits people don't have for example if a human eats fairy food they are then bound to the fairy world and cannot leave without forfeiting their life, also if a fairy falls in love with a human s/he must give the human her wings or return to the fairy world and never see her/his love again. Of course if the human has eaten fairy food perhaps this could be a loop hole.


M'aidez is named after the Song "M'aidez" by the sneaker pimps, It is absolutely my most treasured song.

Video Channel Review: My Froggy Stuff.

 Whilest collecting dolls on a shoestring budget (Well a student budget but still) it is important to look into other ways of doing things, such as making your own props. I have spent hours just watching online tutorials for different things such as making realistic food, furniture, clothes... in fact you name something doll related and I have probably watched it. My favourite is youtube Channel Froggystuff hosted by a mother with input from her daughter Froggy stuff covers kid friendly but also high quality props for your dolls. My favourite on is this one "make a 12" doll bed" I tried it out making a small bed for Dal and these were my results:
As you can see I am still lacking in bed sheets and perhaps some more decoration to make it look more interesting. I hope to make some for my bigger 12" dolls though. Froggy Stuff has Tutorials on absolutely every thing, her most recent even including how to make a car. Even if I don't plan on making anything I always enjoy watching her tutorials and her doll show called "The Darby show" where mother and daughter use dolls to act out scenarios is both really sweet and rather funny. I hope you enjoy.

Shop Review: The Pullip Pantry Etsy.

Echo's Green Dress.

Beautiful Lace Skirt.

Adorable Embroidered Jacket.
There are many little shops that cater to the tiny needs of our dolls and every one has a favourite place to shop. Mine is The Pullip Pantry on Etsy. Although it could be said that I am biased as I knew Jemm via Pullip Fiction before she started up her shop, I can never speak a bad word about her, she often goes out of her way to accomidate people. I have bought from her many times and will happily continue to in the future.

As you can see from the above pictures, she has something for everyone's taste. The Green Dress was made especially for me after complaining that Echo didn't have enough green things to wear I received two different dresses for her. The Black lace Skirt I fell in love with the moment I saw it listed and the lovely jacket was originally for pullip but it fits dal like a glove. The pullip pantry has just released a line of summer dresses so I suggest you head over there now and take a look. http://www.etsy.com/shop/ThePullipPantry.
