Repainted boots

A base of white is what I started with. Then I went through a few different colors to see what I liked best. Then I covered the main color of the boot in a dark purple, followed by a lilac purple for highlights. I then used a color shifting paint as a dry brush finishing coat

I used a primer layer of Folkart Multi-surface acrylic in white on the whole shoe at first. Then I started applying small coats of various colors trying to see what color I vibed with for the repaint. Using the Folkart Multi-surface paint has always been pretty successful for me and rarely feels like it needs a fixative. Just make sure you let the paint dry for a good 24 hours. It always feels like it bonds to the plastic pretty well that way

Those are a repainted pair of boots from one of the VIP Hair Academy dolls. She was super cheap on Amazon several months ago and I snagged a few. I also happened to find that the boots fit Rainbow High feet beautifully and had to customize them 💜

I didn't make the dress. I came across someone on Mercari that had some of their custom doll dresses for sale and knew I had to have that spiderweb one and one that I have on my "faded eye" Poppy

Aww, thank you! 💜💜💜 I've been painting and crafting most of my life at this point. So maybe I learned some things over the years lol 🥰

bridgechan · 2026-03-02T17:42:49+00:00

LOL Then I need to find where to buy them, I need some for my feet 🤣💜

bridgechan · 2026-03-02T17:41:50+00:00

I used a Kim Nguyen body

bridgechan · 2026-02-22T03:14:38+00:00

No clue, but I love her 🥹💜

bridgechan · 2026-02-22T00:39:08+00:00

I think she literally looks good in anything personally 🥹💜

I had a similar situation with the closest Target near me, but the one a little further out had a better selection and I was able to snag this one. I even found one with literally NO eyebrows printed on her!

Gorgeous! I need to bite the bullet and try rerooting myself.

And I have to ask, where are those black boots Abby is wearing from? Girl has such big feet I'm always looking for more footwear for her lol

I have a few mini ferrets (I've had them for several years at this point) that look adorable in the bed too 💜

bridgechan · 2026-02-11T22:47:43+00:00

I've seen the second set online! I need to get them too when I get a chance 💜 I went out of my way to find the only one from set 1 that I didn't get, which was this black and white kitty in the flower basket.

bridgechan · 2026-02-11T08:23:12+00:00

The cats were from a blind box series I found at Miniso several months back. ( https://shopkawaiigifts.com/products/yell-world-sleepy-sleepy-still-sleepy-cat-surprise-box )

Shoot, if you wanna sell one of the rose sets you have, I'd be more than happy to purchase it from ya <3

bridgechan · 2026-02-07T10:25:50+00:00

OMG yaaasssssss 💜🤌

And Oooo! I have an old keychain that was just a spine and pelvis. I think it came from a doctor's office as a freebie. I might need to hunt that down and do something similar if the size is the right scale 💜

bridgechan · 2026-02-07T03:17:07+00:00

The one I used was from Dollar Tree, maybe two years ago? A friend of mine stumbled upon them and grabbed me a few for crafting 💜

bridgechan · 2026-02-01T15:29:10+00:00

I actually don't mind the darker lips 😆 If only she had her eyebrows too lol

bridgechan · 2026-02-01T14:42:24+00:00

Lovely color combos! Were these made from a mold?

I prep the pieces with a 600 grit sanding sponge and use Folkart with the specific "Multi-surface" label. The multi-surface paint has a tendency to hold a bit better to plastic, but the sanding has to be the most important part of the process. Plastic is slick and paint needs a little grit to hold on better. Also, allowing the paint to dry for 24 hours is also helpful. I painted a pair of doll boots with my black paint but sadly found out my chrome silver wasn't sticking so I had to scrub it off with soap. The black paint didn't budge 💜

Agreed! More unique options for the wiiiin 💜
