Sneaking A Peek!....Designs in the works.

Here is a peek at two of the three designs, I am working on for a collection I call, "The Ballerinas."

A few weeks ago I posted on my facebook page, an album called "How she do that!"  I did a quick "start to finish"  for a hat I was making for a human client.  After I posted the finished product, you had lots of questions and comments....AND someone even ordered the hat in miniature size for her BJD!

So I thought you might like to see what's going on in the design room for the KBJD show, coming April 23-26, in Los Angeles, Ca.  Although these designs are not completely finished, I hope you will be as excited about them as I am.  If your planning on attending the show, PLEASE, come see me.  If your on facebook you can keep in touch with me on Susan Lake Headwear page. If not, please visit me at www.susanlakedesignsshop.com and sign up for my newsletter where I give lots of information on designs and shows.

WITCHES, GOBLINS' and more at the San Diego Doll Show

On Oct. 19, 2013, I will be at the San Diego Doll Show & Sale.  It will be held at Our Saviors Lutheran Church, 4011 Ohio St., SD Ca. 92104, 10-3PM.

This year, along with my Headwear,  I began designing the costumes that are inspired by a story I am writing called GOBLINS' BEND.
I introduced  RASPINA   RASPBURI, the WITCH and now I will introduce the second costume in the "WITCHES" collection.  Deconstructed, Gothic, Steampunk...its a bit of all, and I will be showing it at the Doll show in Oct. These costumes are deconstructed muti-layered and intriquet.  The are hand sewn and each adornment is selected by me and sewn into place.  Each one of the GOBLIN costumes has it's own unique detailing and most come with five items. I have met facebook friends and long time customers at these shows and if you are in town, please stop by my table and let's meet!

You can sign up for my news letter right here on my blog.  My newsletters are short, to the point and I hope informative!  You can visit me on my facebook, etsy store or website.  Hope to meet you one day and thanks for your follow!
