Barbie Redux by Patricia Anders

As many of you know, I love altering Barbie Dolls. But wow, I haven't seen anyone alter them the way artist Patricia Anders can! They are amazing to say the least. And very inspiring when looking at new ways to alter my own dolls. Patricia also creates some really beautiful paintings. I've been lucky enough to see several of them at the Unfiltered show last year. Please check out her blog here. Hope you enjoy the photos!

Alice In Wonderland Barbies

I collect Barbies from time to time. And of course anything Alice (if cool), I gotta have. So I got these Alice In Wonderland Barbies a little while back. I still have 'em displayed on one of my shelves but they're still in the packaging...because the packaging is really cool too. I really love Alice's whole look. I love that she doesn't look exactly like Barbie. I also love her dress lots. I think it is so pretty with the different shades of blue and how it ruffles. Oh & the Cheshire Cat looks cute too. Can't forget him!

Her eyes are really pretty too. Obviously this is a more mature-looking Alice. Well, she is wearing eyeliner.

The Queen of Hearts rules as well. Her dress is very beautifully detailed and I like that she comes with a flamingo too.

This is the Mad Hatter, but I didn't get this one. I don't know why I don't like his look. Hm, I guess he just looks too weird to me...or too old perhaps. He kinda looks like a lil' old lady! I think if they would've chosen to do a younger looking Mad Hatter or maybe a lil' taller (he's much shorter than the other two), I would've added him to my collection. Possibly.
