AMAZINGLY LUCID SUITES


I wish I could say that I found this suite, but I did not. A good friend, BeAFoxxyLady, is the person who discovered this amazing work. But once I saw it in her album, I knew that I had to visit this doll. And I knew that I had the direction for my next blog.

Have you ever had a dream, so real that you didn't know if you were dreaming any longer or if you had been awake the entire time? Have you ever seen an image that put you in a place, be it a good place or bad place, and you had to shake yourself to break free? Well the next suites do just that! They are so lucid and true in their design, that you can't seem to escape their haunting images.

What is more beautiful than the love of a mother for her young? There are so many ways to capture this love, but I especially appreciate how this doll did it.

It is simply ...amazing... ...

I took this photo in black and white, because the suite exuded a darkness that a colour photo could not express. It wasn't a scary darkness... but one that made me sad, a darkness that made me feel very alone.

zombelina's suite

It is a perfect place to visit, but I don't know how long I could live there. The truth is sometimes more than we can bear.

I want to go! I've never been to an enchanted world and this one looks oh so inviting! Perhaps we can swim with the mermaids and fly with the eagles....

Lotta2000's suite

The dream, is no longer a dream, it has become a beautiful suite.

Don't wake me up for this creative process! This must be how Dali saw the world. Where the boundaries of life are the limitations of your imagination.
GoreyEddy's suite

What a great ride!

What you do you see? You see exactly what this doll wishes for you to see... nothing more and nothing less... The direction is clear, the meaning is clear, the beauty is clear...

Lulluplix's suite

Gorgeous!

AMAZING AMAZINGLY UNIQUE SUITES


I have been running into a number of suites that have made me stop and stare... Not suites that were decorated, per se, they were just different, unique, amazing! They made me think... where did these dolls come up with such amazing ideas. They made me think... what does it really mean? They made me think!

So this is my first suite that I would like to share with you. An image out of a fantasy book, or a dream, or a parallel universe. A beautiful image that made me think...

fotini00's suite
I hope you enjoy this suite as much as I did. This is a very talented doll, with a wonderful imagination.

AMAZING AMAZINGLY UNIQUE SUITES #2

You tell me, what do you think. Is this creepy... Is this beautiful... Is this sad...

Candylove334's suite

I love it! I find it hauntingly beautiful, a little unnerving and most definitely unique!

AMAZING AMAZINGLY UNIQUE SUITES #3


Wow! wow! wow! and why I am at it... wow!

tecki3's suite

The best thing about an unique suite, is its ability to make you think "how", "why", "wow". I would have never come up with this idea, but I am ever so happy this doll did. Wow!

AMAZING AMAZINGLY UNIQUE SUITES #4


I truly believe, that if something is broken, this dollie will be able to fix it. Don't you...

DawnRenesmee's suite

Only two colours make up this suite.. green & black.. so simple and yet so complicated.. just amazing!!!! And how do you make your doll stand out against such a strong background? You set her aglow... Amazing & Unique!!!

AMAZING AMAZINGLY UNIQUE SUITES #5


Who is he? What has he done? Will he ever return? Why are the hands pink? 

AlondraMars's suite

Questions we may never have answered, but I love that this suite forces you to ask them in the first place. I just love a good story and when it is told by a suite, even better!

AMAZING AMAZINGLY UNIQUE SUITES #6


So.. I am not sure what he did... but I bet he will never do it again!

cat_lover94's suite

Whether you agree with this scene or not, you will have to admit it holds your eye. I found it rather disturbing, especially with the heart and rose that were included. So for me, this suite became more like a piece of art work. And isn't art supposed to be there to make you think, to make you uncomfortable, to pull you out of your comfort zone?

AMAZING DIY SUITES


When I first learned about the new DIY items, I was so excited that I decided immediately that I would do a feature on suites using the items. I just knew that I would be seeing amazing suites everywhere on my visits. And I did see amazing suites... So many suites... But they all looked the same. That is not a criticism of the beautiful suites I ran into, just the reality of working with the DIY items. They are such strong pieces, that you really have to work to make them your "own". So this feature took a little longer than I had hoped. I hope you like the suites that I have chosen.

How does she do it!

Solyma77's Suite

She has created the perfect attic bedroom! A room with angles, corners, tight corners and niches. I think that any little girl would be happy to call this room her own. 

How did she do it? With the perfect combination of DIY, plaza and Stardesign items is how she did it. You would think that you could just buy this as a back drop and place your items in this suite, but that would be too easy... wouldn't it. I love everything about this space! From the loving details, to the amazing attention paid to scale and detail.

Not sure exactly how she did it... but I sure am happy that she did!

AMAZING DIY SUITES #2


It is just so darn pretty!

simplicitygal's Suite

I love this idea! I would have never in a million years come up with this idea. But an idea is not enough to make an amazing suite, is it? It is the attention that is paid to the details and the balance that is then achieved. This suite has surpassed this balance! Each item is in its proper place! Everything fits perfectly and just increases the beauty of its friend and partner. Which in the end, just makes me say.. It is so darn pretty!

AMAZING DIY SUITES #3


Simplicity! What an enormous effect it has...

SarahVIP's Suite

Honestly.. I feel like I shouldn't say too much, I would hate to ruin the vibe that this suite is emitting. Keep it light, keep it easy, let the pieces speak for themselves. Yep, that is what it is saying, so that is what I will do. I will let the picture speak for itself.

AMAZING DIY SUITES #4


Layering and style...

umathuma's Suite

I really like this suite. She has used the items to create a space behind the main room, which gives the effect that the windows are recessed. Her DIY items play a prominent role in her suite, but the effective use of furniture and props ensure that the room still has personality and distinct character.

AMAZING DIY SUITES #5


Breakfast will be at 8, so don't be late.

Rosie.doll's Suite

You will have to look closely to find the DIY items in this suite. But you will find them... That is the brilliance of this kitchen, the window is just that.. a window. The scene looks so real, that I feel inclined to tell you to hurry so she can get on with her breakfast, before her egg gets cold. There is so much to see, so make sure to take your time... I would hate for you to miss anything..

AMAZING DIY SUITES #6


It's nice! Yep, that is what my daughter said when she saw this suite... With a smile on her face...

desiderata2's Suite

I have to agree with my daughter, it is nice. There is nothing not to like about it, only everything to love. And did you see what happened to the Paris skyline? Brilliant idea, it has become a picture that serves to marry the colour pallet in the suite. A wonderful use of the new DIY items.

AMAZING DIY SUITES #7


Pretty in Pink!

LiLyHicks' Suite

When everything appears to be so soft... so sweet... so happy... so pink... All you can do is smile. I love how the colours in the suite bring out the subtle pinks in the DIY skyline. I had not seen it before, but once you notice it, it is hard not to think Stardoll had a suite like this in mind when they designed it. This is truly a beautiful suite... and doll.

AMAZING DIY SUITES #8


Designer Kitchen, custom appliances, amazing view! Yes.. that is perfection!!!!

BeAFoxxyLady's Suite

First you must have the idea and then begins the search for the right pieces. There is so much thought put into this suite. There is nothing missing! And the new DIY items just add to the beauty of her concept. Everything fits, everything complements each other, it is the perfect plan. The DIY and Stardesign items appear to be made for each other in this suite. A perfect harmony.

AMAZING DIY SUITES #9


Who wouldn't like to live in Paris? Especially in this loft!

chucklesalot's Suite

What really takes this suite to the next level is the consequent monochromatic theme and the brilliant use of Stardesign items. I have always been a fan of using a combination of plaza and design items and I hope that after you visit this amazing suite, you too will be inspired to create spaces with more design items. As you can witness with her suite, it is what really sets a suite apart from the others.

AMAZING DIY SUITES #10


The flooring and skyline lend themselves beautifully for creating the perfect So-Ho loft. 

CrazyCharmy's Suite

This doll used her items to compliment her suite. You could almost miss them, if you were to not pay close attention. All of the elements fit together beautifully to give you the feeling of open sophistication.
