Elvis Presley in Black Leather Jacket Appears in Autumn

Posted by Venus on September 30, 2020 in

Did I say, it's an Elvis Presley doll?

This is one of the precious dolls in my small collection.

For this shoot, the diorama was set in Autumn. I took free wallpaper images from wallpapercrave.com and used things found in my stock (and wardrobe).

Elvis Presley doll is wearing a black leatherette jacket, turtle neck top and black pants, and black shoes. This outfit was inspired by one of his famous phots.

My name is Venus Fortuna and I've just started diorama making and doll photography as a hobby. My IG account is @dollshenanigans. See you there!

Jimin's Secret Meeting

Posted by Venus on September 27, 2020 in Jimin Park BTS Barbie Diorama Doll Mattel,

Scene:

Gypsy Restaurant

Jimin and Icy

Jimin was so excited to see her friend Icy. He planned a secret meeting at the Gypsy, a quaint little restaurant with less people. His superstar Kpop status prevented meetings with friends without being mobbed by fans, thus it is important to keep this meeting a secret.

Jimin loves to read books. He found this book and thought it would make a nice meeting gift...

And here is Icy, Jimin's long time friend.

Jimin and Icy hugged. They have not seen each other since 2012....

Dolls Wearing Denim and White

Posted by Venus on September 26, 2020 in Barbie BTS Mattel Jin Dolls Instagram Miniature Style Fashion Wear Denim,

In the dollivers (doll universe), Wear Denim On Friday is when dolls wear their favorite denim and match with a theme created by Dollshenanigans and Sewing.dreams.co in Instagram with the hashtag #weardenimonfriday

On September 25, the Wear Denim On Friday theme was DENIM AND WHITE.

I created a scene for my dolls JEWEL (Barbie) and JIN (BTS) where they are on a night out and having drinks at a restaurant called GYPSY.

Jewel and Jin are wearing casual clothes and nothing fancy. It's their first time to catch up with each other since BTS Jin is now so busy with rehearsals, voice overs, and promotions of their new single, DYNAMITE.

Here is the theme for Wear Denim On Friday September 25 Issue.

Im posting some of my favorites who participated in the game WEAR DENIM ON FRIDAY. Believe me, there are so many enthusiastic dolls out there sharing their photos with Hashtag #weardenimonfriday

The photos and styling are all amazing. We'll done!

J-Hope Wears A Sunflower : Diorama

Posted by Venus on September 22, 2020 in BTS Sunflower J-Hope Hobi Bangtan Barbie Diorama,

Today, my featured post was inspired by one of BTS's Airport arrival photos back in June 2019.

For those of you who wonder about my posts, I started making diaoramas and playing with dolls after the 2 month lockdown quarantine in our city. I was a little bit lost and sad when my postcrossing hobby stopped then. I discovered diorama making and doll photography on Instagram and thought of doing it as a hobby.

Back to my story:

JHope enters the livingroom to show his friend, Gia, his new DIY creation

JHope: "How do I look?!"JHope as usual, being funny and cute.

Gia, the ever supportive friend, praised JHope for creating a cute sunflower headdress and wondered what it's for...

Gia:" Are you going to make more for the rest of the boys? " (referring to BTS members) And... where are you using it for? "

JHope: " Since you liked my sunflower headdress, I will create more. Do you want one for the Halloween party? I made this for activities called Monday4Dolls and PoppyfleaurAutumn. "

Gia:.......

The two posed for a quick snapshot with JHope looking so adorable.

Here is the actual version of the sunflower headdress popularized by BTS Jin, JHope and Suga.

They're so cute!!

I am a new generation BTS fan. I started listening to all their songs and watched their performances and fan cams in YouTube during the pandemic lockdown. I was touched by their personal stories and cried happy tears with their clumsiness and great concerts. Their songs are beautiful (I read English translations) and the melodies and beats are amazing.

BTS Birthday Celebration for Namjoon x BTS Mattel Dolls

Posted by Venus on September 12, 2020 in BTS Bangtan KimNamjoon Jimin JHope Jungkook Suga Taehyung Jin,

September 12 is Kim Namjoon's Birthday and because I'm a fan, I decided to create a doll scene to celebrate his birthday. Doll scene, yes Im saying it again. BTS Mattel did a great job in creating the likeness of the BTS members. Im happy that I've waited long enough for some awesome price drop to happen, just because.... Well, I can't spend 1400ph (PH peso) for 1 doll and there's 7 of them. I'm not a crazed collector, to be honest, and letting dolls stand for dust, I wanted to play with dolls, enjoy, dress up. Anyone who wants to gift me a prestige BTS doll after this is very welcome!!

Anyhoo, I still lack 2 of the members but then, Namjoon's birthday is happening, so I have to go without Suga and Jungkook.

My diorama started with a white box, a printed BT21 cartoon poster, printed paper and Miniatures. I'm sharing photos here, please, if you want to use them, please give credit to my blog, Sisters Craft Cafe or my Instagram account @dollshenanigans.

Here you can see the members decorating the room. Jimin fixing the lights, Jin the banner, and Taehyung-V making the party hat. I made the 2 tier cake, donuts, and gift box while mini foods are my collections.

And Namjoon is wearing the party hat. He looks adorable. Next photo is the group just enjoying themselves like in all photoshoots. It's sad my dolls Jungkook and Suga did not arrive in time...

The group's surprise to Namjoon "RM" is now in Tiktok @dollshenanigans and my instagram @dollshenanigans.

Since when did you become an ARMY? You'll recognize this pose from a dance choreography of one of their most popular song... Hahaha! There are too many songs, and I challenge you to write the title of the song in the comment box below.

Making the diorama was fun and taking photos as well. I did not overprocess, just added simple filter. I am happy that I did not overdo the set up because I really wanted to focus on the group and their simplicity. If you havent seen the way they celebrated Jungkook's birthday last September 1, well you have to watch it ( in YouTube) to better understand the BTS.

I post one more photo (there's more in my instagram for you to indulge), signaling the end of the party, where Jin, Taehyung, and Jimin lie down to stare at the lights.
