Ferdynanda Wspaniała

Peteena was the first animal fashion doll. She was produced only for a year. She isn't hard to find but her value has risen in recent years due to te interest of collectors. She is about 25 cm tall which is a prefect size for me because I do not like bigger dolls. She is made of vinyl, has a rigid body, brown eyes and pastel make up. She is marked "©1966/Hasbro®/Japan/Patent Pending" at the back.
She is very versatile and I think we will be very good friends. Moreover, to my surprise she can wear Blythe, Yo SD and even Lati yellow clothes. Wigs that I use are Lati Yellows' size. Her name is Ferdynanda Wspaniała which means Ferdynanda the Greatest. As a child my favourite book and audiobook was "Ferdynand Wspaniały" (Ferdynand the Greatest). It was a story about a dog which fell asleep on a couch and dreams that suddenly stands on his two feet and decides to lead a life of a human. He visits a tailor, makes new friends, goes to the dentists etc. It was my first story on a cassette in my first walkman Sanyo. Wonderful sounds, great actors.
I should also mention that I got my beloved Ferdynanda from a friend as a present. She came to me with a closet full of clothes made by my friend and with many boxes of goodies! The best present ever! You can visit her
here or visit flickr for more up-to-date adventures.

Christmas is here! Look what I got today from a friend!

Zrób to w Warszawie

Polecam wszystkim warszawiakom i przyjezdnym bardzo pomocny przewodnik po Warszawie autorstwa Agnieszki Kowalskiej i Łukasza Kamińskiego. Jest to przewodnik nietypowy, zaskakujący i jak sami autorzy piszą bardzo subiektywny. Wraz z nim odkryjecie ciekawe miejsca i nudzić się nie będziecie. Oj nie! Kupcie jeden dla siebie i jeden dla swoich znajomych planujących odwiedzić stolicę. Przewodnik jest po polsku i angielsku. I ja mam tam swoje dwie stronki! <3

Here it is an offbeat, slightly crazy and very subjective guide to Warsaw. I highly recommend you to buy one copy when visiting Warsaw. You won't be bored in the city with this book. It is also in English. Buy copy for yourself and for others who plan to visit Warsaw! I have 2 pages there! See you in Warsaw!!! <3

Sudden Rain wdł Bartka Arobala


Dawno nic nie pisałam. Zatem postanowiłam pochwalić się nie moją pracą ale buzią, która to posłużyła ostatnio do zilustrowania pewnej pracy
Bartka Arobala.

arobal sudden rain


Wiosną 2010 roku siedmioro artystów sztuk wizualnych otrzymało od Teatru Wielkiego – Opery Narodowej propozycję stworzenia prac inspirowanych muzyką Sudden Rain Aleksandra Nowaka i Between Agaty Zubel Zaproszeni artyści - Agata Bogacka, Hubert Czerepok, Bartek Kociemba (Arobal), Dominik Jałowiński, Angelika Markul i Igor Omulecki mieli możliwość dowolnej interpretacji, wyboru formy, czy techniki prac, wspólny był tyko punkt wyjścia.

I decided to create tumblr since it often happens that I can’t find anything among my various bookmarks and photos. Here they might preserve in one place and in one piece. I hope. Some of the photos lack credits so if you know the source or the author I’ll be more than grateful if you provided me with info. Enjoy!

New settings

Ah been here, been there, have new ideas in mind which I hope will come to life in the next year.

But for now...I am in the process of changing settings in my pendants and brooches.
New settings will look like this:

Btw I made a PayPal button in shopping centre so check it out. If something goes wrong please give me a sign.
Info for Polish customers, you have to still contact me via mail if you want a pendant/brooch. I am still working on mastering all the buttons. In such situations I wish we all had the same currency.

New photo of Matylda. Actually I am thinking of getting her a sister. She seems so sad sitting alone.

movies

I once made some random short movies with Nutella. Here are they. Enjoy!

pernament vacations by Laura P.

I just wanted to share some work with you of my friend Laura Pawela.
She has recently been staying in Bratislava. Watch her
recent movies.
I love them.

so here I am

I am back but changed place. I am residing in Berlin till the end of August. It so nice and sunny. My friend's mum lent me a bike so I can admire the views from the outside. Unfortunately I hopped that I could meet some people here but most of them left for holidays and will be back by the end of a month :(

Anyway I made a
new flickr account for my Berlin trip so please visit me.
I added some new stuff to
Matylda section (for more look here), I adopted new friend Ludwisia and added new section with links.

And here is a quick preview of photos:

Berlin here I come

I am going to Berlin for almost a month. I have hardly anything to do here so I guess I can do the same from there.
I sold Waleria (my vampire girl) because she was to big for me. It seems that MSD size is not for me.
I quickly bought Yo-SD and she'll arrive I suppose in the middle of September. I can't wait.

New photos of
Matylda, new pendants and brooches.

Since I'll be leaving for a month I'll be closing my
Etsy store. thus I made a small reduction on prices. Hurry up and grab one of my enchanted pendants or brooches.

News

I haven't written for so long. Facebook and flickr are on my mind right now.
The weather is either very rainy or very sunny so it's very hard to concentrate on anything.
I'd like to go in August to Berlin and I'm looking for some apartment to rent. If you happen to know something, drop me a line.

Here are some photo news.
(still I'm at loss why my works are blurred at this site but it seems I am on a good track to solve the problem)

myspace_ldz :(

For the past 2 years I took part in myspace_ldz street project which aims to bring life into old shop displays which are ment to advertise shops located in the backyards. They are sometimes old and not inhibited anymore. Some artists were introduced to work on the boxes. Me as well. The idea is brilliant however the organization of the event leaves much to be desired. Terrible mail contact, money matters and most of all protection of our works- is what bugs me most.

It's clear that life span of some works is short and depends on kind of material is used to create your display. Especially when the organizers tell you that the event will last only for a month you do not seem to be worried about the durability of your work. I always put my heart in my projects either it was in 2007 when I had to bring 5 kilos of soil or in 2008 when creating paper doll house. Later on you learn that the project lasts a year until next opening.

It's pretty obvious that when you live in different city you do not have opportunity to take care of your work. But you put faith in the organizers who will from time to time look if everything is ok. I hear from people who write to me about my work that the roof fell from the house and smashed Tusia. It's devastating news but I know that not irreversible. Some time ago I wrote to one of the organizers describing the status quo and politely asked to have a look and maybe pick up the roof and glue it to the wall. The whole operation shouldn't take longer than 2 minutes including opening and closing the window. Unfortunately nothing has been changed since that time.

I could write more and more about myspace_ldz regarding publishing of the catalog, distribution of $ for the artists and so on. However, I will leave the topic at this point saying that there is no chance for me to take part in this year action! I am way too disappointed!

I so recommend "Let the Right One In" (Låt den rätte komma in).

and this Bat for Lashes clip....

new friends came to live with me...

Today we celebrate Children's Day in Poland. I know that in different countries it falls on a different day.
I got today this crazy bunch of vintage pencil sharpeners. I am so overwhelmed by their faces! total exxxtasy!
aaand...not only are they ment to sharpen your pencils but they also give sound as they have paper tubes which you squeeze :)
Like I said, I'm over the moon! 


Happy Children's Day!

It so nice to be on the site which you are a great fan of for long period of time. It's even more lovely when you appear on two such sites!

UpdatePusia in a bubble

I miss my grandpa sometimes

I woke up today and listened to a mass coming from the neigbours' apartment. I didn't mind it at all today. I felt a sudden flash back, back to the past.

Suddenly I am 7 again, listening to a mass on the radio at my grandparents' home. Freshly baked cake stands on the table. I know I can't eat it because it's too warm. Grandma has just taken it out of the oven. It is yeast cake with crumble for sure. Additional crumble for me. Later on me and my grandpa will dress nicely and we will go at the cemetery to wash the graves of my relatives. We will have a chat, drink tea from a thermos and take some sun. It will be cheerful as it is every Sunday.
When we come back home, grandma will serve us
vapour-cooked dumplings (yeast dumplings). I'll eat them with cream and sugar and they will have it with meat.
Later on there will be some old polish movie from 20's or 30's aired around 5:30 PM on TV. I love watching these old flicks. Now we can eat a cake and drink tea with lemon. Around 7PM my dad will appear out of nowhere and it will be the saddest moment during me whole weekend.



and new Waleria...

When Nutella's on her spa holidays, it's time for other dolls. Yesterday was Luna Pomyluna and today you may see Waleria.

Busy Bee

Busy Bee it's me! I've taken some really nice photos. I created a separate category on the right called Little Worlds which will comprise all tininess, so feel free to step by. Here are the photos I took today.

Pusia is an old pencil sharpener. I used to collect them when I was little. There were different themes for example girls riding a snail or a frog, girls with big heads and funny eyes, hilarious animals and so on.
As first comes Pusia ( read: Poosia, similar to freesia)

Pusia on the beach

Then have a look at Wanda the Piggy. I took her for short vacations from my friend Lukasz. She's been almost half a year with me. She's beautiful. He bought her in New York in some shop. She was lying on the window display on a special red cushion like a French princess. I envy him that he can look at her piggish smily face everyday. She's one of the things which make me laugh.

Wandzia the Piggy

Shrooms from my grandmother's garden

I uploaded some mushroom photos here. They live in my grandmothers's garden. She painted the plates herself and put animals around. I love her little creations. I wanted to give the pictures some postcard vintage look. I hope you like them as much as I do.
Aligator

"If you knew Susie..."

A cheerful song for a sunny day like today! Engage!
I loooove it!!!!!!!!!!

There are a few things that I adore. For example Star Trek Next Generation with one and only capt. Jean-Luc Picard ( Patrick Stewart) and undoubtedly my chocolate cake with cream and strawberries on top. Divine! I <3 cream. The fatter the better. It makes me 30% closer to god :)

Look who's here!

I love her freaky ways! Check her photos here:

Today is my Name Day. I don't know if you celebrate it in your country but it's like Birthday and it refers to your given name. This day we socialize, eat, drink and get presents of course! As for the present guys I'll give you a hint...I'm still dreaming of a car and doll.

Monopoly yeah!

Believe it or not I played Monopoly for the first time yesterday. I thought that my little Totoro was carrying loads of $$$ in his bag but sadly enough all he got was debts. The interests were accruing so we had to wind up business.

yoyoyo! Check the new
Totoro gallery!

Let's roll guys!

<3

Yeah, there is this thing about me that I don't have dreams. I only have plans to fulfill. I'm a post-it person. I list everything I have to do and I go step by step until I finish. I set goals and I try not to give up my ideas.
But I do have one true dream. The dream that never fades out. If there was a quiz "which car are you" the answer would be Austin Morris Mini. I've been in love with this car for agesagesages. I hope that one day it'll be mine.

Still my dream car

I told ya!

Remember when I posted a note about Vincent Gallo and that you should quickly go and see the short extracts from the movies that I posted because they might be soon deleted as Mr. Gallo is extremely sensitive to copyright infringements? ha! So all of the Buffalo66 clips were removed (like I said) and moreover my clip with Nutella when she was listening to "honey bunny" song by V.Gallo was also a removed from my youtube account. It came tome as no surprise. I can handle it. I still think it's a minor offense and I have it on my flickr account. I've always knew he was a freak. I knew it, knew it, knew it! My Nutella was only listening to the tunes that were in the background. I'm sure Gallo has sleeping problems, no one loves him and he checks his stats at youtube a few times a month. He's an old pervert but I <3 him for that.
Funny think is that there is another
Vincent J.Gallo on youtube and it happened so that's a boy of the same names and he posts short movies. Once I came across his stream and saw a flick titled: why my videos are constantly being deleted from my account? and someone commented: sorry kid, I was drunk the other day and I deleted it for infringement. I bet that was Gallo with his sleeping problems.

April Fool's

This day I saw a man run over by a car and his head a few meters away from the rest of his body. It has been more traumatic than perpetual night sessions with rotten.com
Then I got trapped inside a tram. I've always known that I am afraid of confined places but only today I truly realized this fact. Strangely enough, elevator doesn't affect me at all.
To keep you up to date with the recent news, I was cleaning the pipes in my bathroom using special product designed for this. As you probably know, it is based on acid of some kind so you have to be careful when using it, remember when to use water, when the product...Yeah, I was careful but apparently not enough because suddenly all the granules erupted like Etna and landed on me with the force of Nigarafalls. I have blisters on my palms and arms from the acid. My t-shirt got burned too. Luckily my face was untouched. These are the days and scars of Mirella von Chrupek.

blister_m

I say: why not! I say: yes!

So my nightmares continue. I scream at night. I simply can't understand and embrace this fact. There must be obviously something which bothers me in my real life.
Thankfully, I finished a little present which will be soon send out. I don't even know whether it'll ever reach its addreesee or not. I sincerely hope that my mission will be successful.
I made a lumibox with my favourite psycho shroom and I decided to give it away. I no longer wish to keep my works at home. Right now I do not have power to sell my works either. My latest maxim after watching
"Yes man" with Carrey is: "why not!!!" I hate Carrey but I kinda liked the whole idea of the movie. "Why not" seems such a good solution for many problems! Instead of analyzing and pondering on situation or people you just go and say: "Ok, I'll do it! why not!" Since I'm reluctant to changes I decided to make use of this why not! sometimes. Hence, the present, hence the person. Why not! who cares!

Gospel for today

Remember kiddies, there is only one Cola- the red one, cold from a can!!!
I'm a great fan of Coca Cola. I don't like all these Zeros and Lights and Diets and Cherries and even more strange mixtures of Cola and RedBull. This is all the same shit so why to cheat and delude yourself that Diet is healthier than the Regular one? pfff
Enjoy your life! Go and drink the Regular one!!!


Gospel for today: Remember kiddies, there is only one CocaCola- the red one, cold from a can

ps. I wonder: did I get this crooked nose from drinking too much Cola? hmmm

Awww


I think she's so freaking different that I really want her

Yeah, I fell in love with her and the problem is, I want her very very very much. The bigger problem is I can't buy her right now since my funds are very limited.
I love her in this particular wig, her eyes are "nothing like the sun...." and these tiny lips are driving me crazy. She's so freaking different from the rest of my dolls and I truly believe she would make a fine piece to my collection. I can already visualize her as a perfect model for my photographs. I wish I could buy her.

This model is
Bono. I'd order her in white skin, with a teardrop, make up coz it's beautiful and the same wig! If I had a chance to get the same eyes I'd be most happy.
However, for now I can only look at her. I hate this feeling of having to lick the windows to taste icecreams. I hate window shopping but it happens to me too often recently. I deserve her for the sake of all things I've had to refuse myself to buy since I couldn't afford them.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



p.s you can always

Nutella P.

We were bored today so we played a little. Nutella P. listening and acting to Vincent Gallo "Honey Bunny" song. I just love making these short spontaneous movies with her.





Check the whole album. Very vintage and beautiful and one of the best for me.
Vincent Gallo "When" 2001

.

Blah, blood is dripping from upper and lower parts of my body. One is monthly normal but I haven't had any problems with my nose since my kindergarten days.
Actually there must be something wrong in here...Is there really someone draining me out? :)

Who'd have thought that we have astronomical spring. It's fucking snowing outside. I almost died hit by a giant frozen snowflake.

put a gun to my head and paint the walls with my brains

I had a terrible nightmare tonight. I almost feel like Lucy from Bram Stroker's "Dracula" who is slowly being drained of her blood and as consequence her state deteriorates.
Still a copy of a copy of a copy...

I recommend you this record for today:

566286_170x170

With a gun barrel between your teeth, you speak only in vowels.

I've been having sleeping problems recently. I don't know what the reason for this is. I usually have difficulties with sleeping during a full moon but it lasts only for a day or two. I hope I won't develop such insomnia like in my mostmostmost favourite movie ever "Fight Club". (I only lovelovelove "Buffalo 66" on the same level) So, quoting, when you have insomnia you're never really asleep and you're never really awake. And this is how I feel most of the time: drenched of all good emotions and having an out-of-body experience. Everything is a copy of a copy of a copy. Nothing is real. Right now I am experiencing deep desire for chaos or simply an urge to destroy everything beautiful. I want to wipe my ass with the Mona Lisa, yeah!

If you've seen the movie, do read the book although I'm not a great fan of Palahniuk style but since the movie is my favourite I can somehow relate to this. Besides, when there's a movie and a book which the film is based on, I always read the book. Gosh, I've just realized that whenever I watch "Fight Club" I can't believe how I adore this flick and Pitt-Norton duo. BloodySweatyZexyBeasts. Eternal bliss. And finally FightClub is a marvelous study of a person going insane to make himself sane.

I'm sure you yourself have at least one movie that you know by heart and you have your lines. Here are some of mine:

* Put a gun to my head and paint the walls with my brains.
* You're not your job. You're not how much money you have in the bank. You're not the car you drive. You're not the contents of your wallet. You're not your fucking khakis. We are the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world.
You are not special. You are not a beautiful or unique snowflake. You are the same decaying organic matter as everything else, and we are all a part of the same compost heap.

[Tyler and Narrator are discussing ideal opponents]
Tyler Durden: OK: any historic figure.
Narrator: I'd fight Gandhi.
Tyler Durden: Good answer.
Narrator: How about you?
Tyler Durden: Lincoln.
Narrator: Lincoln?
Tyler Durden: Big guy, big reach. Skinny guys fight 'til they're burger.

[the narrator pulls a loose tooth out of his mouth]
Narrator: Fuck.
Tyler Durden: Hey, even the Mona Lisa's falling apart.

Narrator: Tyler was a night person. While the rest of us were sleeping, he worked. He had one part time job as a projectionist. See, a movie doesn't come all on one big reel. It comes on a few. So someone has to be there to switch the projectors at the exact moment that one reel ends and the next one begins. If you look for it, you can see these little dots come into the upper right-hand corner of the screen.
Tyler Durden: In the industry, we call them "cigarette burns."

I love the scene when they enter the bar and Tom Waits is playing in the background...


...and the "Hit me" scene




and the "Things you own end up owning you" scene...



and I could go on and on and on like that. STOP.

How sweet is this?

The answer is: very! See ya in July.

yeah! how brilliant is this? Very!

Digging on the Internet....


I've just found a
really nice review written by Misia_Rysia about me and my creations. I wanted quickly to share it with you guys.
(It's written in Polish)


quick lines....

I came back from my little city break to Berlin. I was there for Marc Almond's concert and it turned out so cool. I adore Marc for his lyrics and diversity. I love when my idols can sing live the same as on the record. I'll devote separate note on Almond soon because he undoubtedly deserves it. I love when the concerts are for a limited group of people in nice places, not very crowded. This gig was in Passionkirche in Kreuzberg. I was a little bit late since I'd thought there'd be a support band. Actually there wasn't any but the concert lasted for almost 2,5-3 hours anyway.
It was raining during the whole weekend but luckily there were some nice spells of weather. I love Berlin. I'm planning to spend summer (3 months) there. yeah :)

Berlin, pancakes and my slaves

I've been pampering myself to much lately. I've just eaten cinnamon apple pancakes with powder sugar and I am about to pack my belongings and go to Berlin. Jupi!

Before that, I'd like to show you my new creations: bubble earrings with enslaved dollies inside.
There are only 5 of them to adopt but if you liked them, they will be available in my shop on a regular basis.

during breakfast


If you haven't seen "Blue in the face" (1995) yet, shame on you! Everyone's here is hilarious. The movie was filmed over a five day period and didn't have a complete script. Thus it's a combination of improvised performances of Jim Jarmusch, Harvey Keitel, Mira Solvino, Roseane and more.
Bye for now, I have to go and finish the movie.





She's nuts!


Meet Nutella Pattinson for the first time

Yes, she's here. I am short of money right now but I so wanted to buy a doll. I decided to buy myself a
Blythe. SInce I am not a big fan of Blythes it came as a shock to me that I did it. Actually it was a present and they give, you take it, right?

I named her differently than other girls since she was a surprise and I wanted her to be combination of spontaneity. She is Nutella because I was preparing breakfast and this is what I was spreading on my bread at that very moment. Secondly, I love Nutella. It brings back good memories from the childhood days. It still has the same cocoa-nut taste. I can go crazy for it. And Pattinson because I kinda like the guy. I like him as Toby in "Haunted Airman" and he has a nice jaw. It's a pity there's this whole teenager franzy going on connected with "Twilight". It must be freaking psychotic and mentally wearisome for the guy to know that an average girl in her teens wants to be bitten by him in one of her sleazy dreams. Anyway, since I needed the surname and my friend was just talking about him....So now you know the story.

She will soon go to lovely
tinkerina for some changes. I will soon dye her hair too so that it'll be more Nutellalike. Usually people start with Blythes and than BJD. It seems with me it's the other way round :)

I am still planning to buy Lati Green Senny (I guess) or some Customhouse Ai girl. I hope it'll happen soon. Maybe you wanna
donate? :)

These are my idols. I love Oscar for his wits, Edgar for his premature burials and Vincent for his marvelous creations.
I'd love to meet them some day.

New Waleria


Recently I've been doing simply nothing. Yesterday I said: no! The result of my struggle with laziness is below.
This is my doll
Waleria (Benetia Vampire, DImDoll )

New Waleria

so blurred. I can't sort it out. It's so annoying.
They are sharp as hell, even on my
vonflickr.

I blew Vincent Gallo but all I got was a lock jaw

Today something about movies. "Buffalo 66" by Vincent Gallo. As much as I consider Gallo to be a total a freak I adore this movie. It dates back 1998 and features lovely Christina Ricci. She said that she will never work with narcistic Gallo again because she allegely suffered abuse on the set. She says: "I was seventeen, yeah. It was my first movie away without my mother. Not a wise choice. I really didn’t understand what was going on most of the time working with a crazy lunatic man. I’d never encountered such insanity". This I can truely believe in. Working with Gallo can leave you traumatized to the end of your days. Despite the controversial issues, I think she did a great job! Actually they both did. The movie is a wonderful mixture of irony and black humour but on the other hand it's kinda romantic.

I wouldn't like to disclose you a whole plot so I'll refrain from doing so. See and watch it for yourself. I'll only say that I love the scene in a shifter car and Ricci's tap dance and photo booth scene and when Billy Brown's dad sings...The visual effect of "Buffalo 66" is made with the use of 35mm and 16mm film and the colours seem to be desaturated which gives the movie a retro style.
You can watch some clips from the movie below. I bet Gallo will soon delete them from youtube as he often does. This is a rare occasion to see some extracts from the movie. Enjoy when it's not too late.




Remember him in a great movie "Arizona Dream" (Emir Kusturica, 1993) where he played Paul Lager, the actor? I fell in love with him there.



It's worth mentioning that Vincent Gallo is not only an good actor (because I do like his creations) but also quite a good a singer. "When" is probably one of the most beautiful records I've ever heard. Produced with the use of original equipment form the 70s: guitars, hammonds, microphones and so on..Bunnylicious "Honey Bunny" below. I always get shivers when listening to it. It's kinda retro, don't you think.



Unfortunately I take Gallo as he is, no matter what he says on this
website! Aaaaaaannnd he is pretty well endowed if you know what I mean....Check this fact at the end of Bunny Brown with wonderful Chloe Sevigny who performs actual fellatio on Gallo there. Here is more reference for mainstream films with unsimulated sex :)

What's more, he's advertising polish vodka
Belvedere and the clip is directed by Terry Richardson. Quite nice combination, don't you think? Hard to resist.

yeah, new Matylda!

Just a quick note for those who haven't seen them! They are lovely. Matylda is my first BJD and I love her to pieces!

London calling and new HankyPankyGerlz

I'm going to London tomorrow!
But for now, have a look at new
HankyPankyGelz! I took these photos at 5PM with my friends (Wuj Zepter and Maciej Mahler). Some of the photos might be blurry. But I like them this way. They turned out to be very spontaneous.
These are
Jahne's Pullips. They have sophisticated clothes with laces and aprons, strange eyes and hair. I had no idea what to do with them. But, the girls showed me how to play!

crazy girlz

I've been blue for some time. It comes and goes. You never know when you can be hit by a thunder of melancholy.
I've been listening to Brett Anderson's solo album all day. I can't believe I missed his concert in Poland. Frankly speaking I've been a devoted fan of Suede and Brett for over a decade. I cannot be fully objective about him. His recent solo albums have been very acustic which I like.
I've found today quite a new interview (2008) with him on
youtube. There are 7 parts which you'll easily find.
He talks about recording his album in a week, about "Wilderness" simplicity, lyrics and melody, being lazy when playing rock music. He also says that music is about emotion and the only way to express emotions is by talking about relationships, to investigate the endless possibilities of relationships. Singing about third World economics doesn't engage you emotionally.
It stimulates you only intellectually, which is true to some point.

Here is probably one of m favourite Suede songs. Piano version is even more powerful. It gives me goose lumps.

Remember, charity begins at home...


Ha! Here she is. My little money keeper. She has a small hole at the back so she'll help me to raise money for my next dollies and dolly related stuff such as lenses, cameras, new clothes and etc. Bank account isn't working for me. I believe she can guard my savings better. However, this is her mission :)

Remember, charity begins at home

I love the sinister mood of this forlorn girl. What's more interesting, I've found out she can also be very cheerful in her own way.
I do believe that even non-animate objects can actually change and transform.
Matylda can be very sorrowful but you give her a bear she suddenly lights up. It's so noticable at the some photos.


I played wth my new charity box yesterday and here are the results.
Btw, she doesn't have a name yet. I guess this is not what she misses most so I'll just call her my Charity Box.

I recommend this album of Stefan Żechowski's works.
So demonic! I love it!


My body is a cage...

I know, I know I'm a little bit slow with music revelations but....

I'm not a webwizard

Yeah, it came as no surprise to me that my website does not work properly on different systems other than Mac OS. Updating sites, blogs, projects takes a looooooooooooot of time, please believe me, I should hire someone who could just take care of my business online. I go to regular work, I create my stuff, sell things, publish and put everything in internet space. It's soooo timeconsuming.
Just a few hours ago I noticed that one cannot view my Handmade Creations site on PC! It possibly hasn't been working for quite a long time! I simply don't know the reason. So once again, me master of html, had to reconfigure my site so that PC users could see it properly. Finally, after a year and a half of struggle, the site works fine. I'm not too enthusiastic about it but it has to suffice.

Thus I added new category on the right called
S H O P. Here you will find things which are available to get from me. You may write to me about the pendants, brooches....

I'd like to add at this point that Bunny Terminator Project has terminated and I'll no longer be a his Creator. Bunny has gone on really loooong vacations. Thank you all for taking part in his adventures. He's been to such marvelous places that he didn't even dreamt of. Thank you folks!

Happy New Year!

Yesterday, the first day of the new year, I won 182zł (around 45Euro) in Lotto- national lotery game.
Does it mean I'll be lucky all year long?! I hope so!

Here is my lucky draw:

PRZETWORY* 13-14 December! 3rd edition!!!


I'd like to invite you all to PRZETWORY a mega recycling Christmas fair which is taking place for the 3rd time in Warsaw just before Christmas.
There'll be a lot of people with extra ordinary things so you will have zillion occasions to buy many many presents.
This year I'll be there with my creations i.e. pendants, kaleidoscopes and other.

I also plan to take my dolly girls with me so if you want to say hi to Matylda, Waleria, Luna Pomyluna (these I plan to take) you are more than welcome. Matylda'd be thrilled to see you!
Tusia will stay at home because she's too small for such a crowdy event and Filemona has too wobbly body. I don't want you to think she's a wino and can't stand on her feet :)

*Be there or be square!*

Change

I had to change and rearrange the old work of Waleria. After some time I decided it was pretty cheap.
Yes, I made a mistake and corrected it. It's much better. Here is the result.

My boyfriend left to Amsterdam and I'm home alone. So I'd like to present you my recent work.

myspace_ldz project 2008

I couldn't miss the possibility to take part in myspace_ldz project. This is a project where artists present their works in old showcases in the streets of Łódź. I took part last year and I made a dark grave project which lasted for the longest period of time because it was dark and gloomy. That is why hooligans didn't see it so well and they missed such a great target.
This year, I made something very cheerful and colourful. I wouldn't be surprised if it was distroyed a day after. I must say that such streets projects determine your work. You have to think about possible demages, materials, difficulty connected with setting the project.
Overall I'm quite happy how it turned out. It could be more dimentional but if the case is only 5 cm deep, it's hard to come with multilayered composition.
I'd like to show you some of the photos.
However, if you live in Łódź, visit 43 Piotrkowska (near Zapiecek) and see how my dolls are doing.

my happy dollhouse project

new chicks!

sample

I added some new photos of Matylda, Tusia, Waleria, Filemona and LunaPomuluna to their photo section. Have fun!
Matylda came back from spa in Seul where they upgraded her faceup. Now she looks stunning although sad which I didn't expect so much.
Unfortunately, autumn is coming and there will be less and less good light. I'm planing to buy some lights but now I have to get a new battery to my Mac and a hard disc. I'll tell you as a secret, so don't tell anyone: I have no backup! Yeah, yeah I know, it's a same and I might cry later but the situation is like this for now. I also want to buy Filemona a new body which doesn't cost much and will make her a super poseable chick! So here are my news. What are yours?

Tusia

Tusia is Matylda's little sister. I wanted Matylda to have a companion to play and to take care of. So here is Tusia. She's much smaller than Matylda, only 9.8cm and has similar eyes.

things that make me go hmmm

There are some things that make me go hmmm. For example: why some of my photos on the site aren't sharply sharp as they really are. Some of them are slightly blurred and I cannot make head or tails of this problem. I suppose it might be something in the settings of Rapidweaver which I'm using. If you find some photo unclear, please refer to it on my flickr site. I am not an expert in html but I'll try to figure it where to push the correct button to change the settings.
If you know what might be the problem please leave me a note under the post or write me an email. I'd be greatful to finally solve this itchy problem.

Say "hi" to Luna Pomyluna

This is Luna Pomyluna, a new member to my family. She's from the 60s and as the only one has dark hair. She has potential. I feel it in my bones.

Who is she?I am no different.

See you soon. To keep up to date with my photos visit us at:

New member of my little family

Filemona!
I've waited for her for so long and finally she arrived some time ago. Filemona is a naughty girl. She loves playing tricks on everyone. Maybe because she spent most of her life in a box travelling from far away countries until she finally reached my house. I utterly understand her misbehaviour.
She was born with dirty feet thus I call her Filemona the Dirty Feet.

To keep track of her actions visit her at:



So let's meet Filemona....
Filemona
...the Dirty Feet!
Guess whose dirty feet are these?


Meet Waleria

This is my new 43cm heigh, Asian rasin ball joint doll. Her name is Waleria. I made her a hero of my new project. I have recently started to collect BJD and been fascinated with their beauty. As Matylda is a very outgoing creation which loves traveling, sneaking everywhere and meeting new people, Waleria on the other hand is peaceful likes to stay at home and dream about faraway places.

NEWS !!!!!

Good news about the current site!

For those who have been patient enough to visit my page, I have good news!
I have been working on moving my old site onto another server and so it is done!
The previous site had many bugs. One the horrors were flicking advertisements which were hard to bypass and were too annoying to bear. However, the site will be Safari and Firefox friendly, so if you had any problems with dancing letters or images, simply change the browser. I am not an expert in html, so it is difficult for me to cater for everyone's taste in browsers. Sorry for troubles. Nobody's perfect.

Thank you for being with me for sooo long at www.mirella.prv.pl. It has been over 5 years!

My new obsession

As I am an ordinary girl, I want to present you my lovely 16cm, resin doll. You may trace her adventures on my Flickr. She is a loveable little brat that loves sneaking everywhere.

This Friday (26th October), in Łódź city, you will have an opportunity to see my next work in real. As usual, photos soon. However, if you happen to be in Lodz that time, please visit my little garden (with a surprise below) which I plan to construct in one of the street cases. It will be situated on 1 Narutowicza Str, just near Piotrkowska Str. Here is the old box. It looks rather browny and sad to me. I hope to make it a bit more colourful.


I would like to invite you also to join us at 17:07, 12 Nowomiejska Str. There will be a short introduction to the project and you will get there maps with locations of the places where you can admire other people's works.

Hope to see you there soon!
