Last Winter Clothing For The Season And February Planning

Hi Blogmonsters,



Clawdeen here to do the Friday blogspot for you.
This week I was very busy again with doing winter fashion for some of my friends, also there was my new fb page that took some time and the Operetta Special.
Today, its January the 30th and I end up with doing winter clothes for this year.
I am very sorry for Jane Boolittle and Jinafire Long who had bad luck to be the ghouls who didn't get a set of those yet.

For February, I have planned to be more egoistic and to do two or three new outfits for myself, after I have been so busy with making fashion for so many friends.

Also, I hope to have some time to do some sleeping clothes for those who doesn't have some. Those would be Catty Noir, Gigi Grant, Jane Boolittle, Marisol Coxi, Neightan Rot and Viperine Gorgone.
I'll start with Jane and then drew lots again because I can't promise to schedule all of those.

But now to the rest of the new winter clothes I did.



Here is the one for Neightan. He got some red pants, a black, yellow and blue striped pullover matching his streaks and a red hat and scarf set.



Marisol Coxi got a black bell bottom jumpsuit, a poncho in green, turquise and hot pink and a fitting hat. Principally they are the same as the winter set I did for Viperine, but they really look different because of the different colours I used.



Catrine got dark purple fleece pants, a lighter purple pullover with lurex and a hat and scarf set in a fuchsia tone. The colours match her hair very well.



And here is the one I made for Rochelle. From all those I finished this week, somehow this is my favourite one, it looks so cute on her.
She got an anthracite crochet hat and light pink pullover and dark turquise striped skinny pants with fitting scarf.



I wanted to do a group picture with the new outfits again. Sadly Catty Noir didn't have time, but I will take a shoot of her together with the next seasons winter outfits as soon as I start with those... possibly next year. I am sure there will be some more ghouls by then to join our growing clique.

From the left to the right you see Frankie, Neightan, Marisol, Rochelle and Catrine.
And with this pic, I want to end the blog for today.

If you are bored this week, visit our facebook page, have a look there and comment, if you like. Your comments are very welcomed under the blogposts as well, of course!

Here is the link to my Facebookpage again, in case you missed the Operetta special:

Byebye,

New Facebook-Page And Operetta Special

Hi Blogmonsters,



Clawdeen here on a grey-skyed Sunday, and I want to brighten up the day for you with two things:



First and very important:
I have a brand new facebook page.
It goes together with the blog mainly, but right now you can already find some albums full with pictures of Cleo, me and some of our friends.
If you are interested to be part of my fb community, please bookmark that page.
You can find it here:


I really hope the link will work out for you.
If not, please tell me what the browser address is for you.




The other thing to brighten the day up is another Ghoul special:
Today with Operetta, daughter of the famous Phantom of the Opera!
Hello Operetta!

Hi Clawdeen!
Its great we do this special about me, I waited long for this day!

Really? Fangtastic!
Of course Monster High fans know your official bio, but would you please have us  let a look in your very private warderobe?

Sure, be welcome!
Thank you, it grows and there are some really rocking outfits in there...
But before I do this, I'll show you about some personal changes.



When I came here, I looked like this! I had those victory rolls, these fashions and my guitar which is also a bag! I also had this heart shaped mask that stucked inside the hair.
Also, my pet Daddy o'Long-Legs came with me.
But with the time, my hairstyle began to come down more and more. That was when I decided to have my first change.



Here it is. I changed my hair to a more comfy look and also my make-up a little bit.
And I bought myself a new outfit, a dancing suit, because I was going to take a swing-dance class.



At the begin of October 2014, I then felt it was time for a change again because I started to think my simple hairstyle was boring. So I went to the coiffeur to get some bangs and something that looked more 1950es again. It was time for a make-up-change also, some new clothes and shoes and some new accessoires! And that is how I still look like, mainly!

I like your new look very much, Operetta.
Now what else is in your warderobe?

I have some really great styles I found in the maul and also the fashion you made for me, Clawdeen, and an outfit made by TRINITY!
Lets start with the bought fashion first and then go on with the unique hand made looks...



This is one of my bought looks and, I think, my favourite one of those. Its a white dress with spider pattern in purple, a fitting spencer jacket and as accessoires a new red mask, a belt with dice motive and earrings in the same colour and these cute peep-toe shoes.
On the same day, I found another outfit that I had to buy.



Its this one: a red carmen top and a black pencil skirt. Perfect for the summer!



Oh... how could I forget about this so cool outfit I bought long before  got those others.
It is so me....
A black top with red brooche, another pencil skirt, but this time with an amazing leo-notes-print in black and white, another red belt which has a spider-web design again and the coolest 50es style shades I ever found!

These are my maul fashions.
And now I show the ones you made for me to the readers:



From the first one, I really need a better picture. Its so blurry!
It is a two part summer outfit:
A dark purple crochet pullover with short puffy sleeves and a black circle skirt, also crochet. I still love to wear this one, as well as all the others.


 

Then you made the winter outfit for me I wear today: a red and black crochet pullover with white collar and dark purple crochet pants.
One year later, when I had my swing hairstyle, you added this black and red bobble hat which makes the fashion pefect.



This is another dress you made for me: a one piece summer crochet dtess with white carmen-top piece, black waist and red skirt part.



This is the sportswear I got from you: Purple and white striped glittery top and red hot pants, and to push my hair back a fitting glittery purple headband, everything crochet again.



Here is my very cute nighty: a very light lavender coloured baby doll with shorts, fitting sleeping mask and bedroom slippers.



Now to my bathsuit: a red one with black at the top and a greying bag with ring handles which really rocks!



This is my "Camouflage" outfit which is another summer fashion now.
It is a crochet top with short sleeves which is tied up to be a tummy-shirt. Its made from purple and pink camouflage yarn. Matching there are these white crochet capris with a sewn on dice belt showing my name!



My party fashion: a purple crochet top with sequin straps and a fitting red sequin skirt with longer purple pettycoat.



Most of the blogreaders may have seen my black christmas dress with hat.



Here is one of my fave self-made dresses: My checkered red and white sewn-by-Clawdeen circle coat dress with red pettycoat and very, very huge velvet corsage belt. On my head I have a headband with black roses.



This is my fall fashion. The crochet pullover is made from marine blue and white glittering yarn, I have some red pants and a white scarf.



Last but really not least, lets not forget about the beautiful TRINITY fashion set.
I am sorry I only have this picture posing together with Cleo and Deuce. I am still so happy that Trinity gave those clothes to us - its such a comfy and cool winter fashion.

Well, for now I close my warderobe doors.
But perhaps I will get more fashion in the future?

Sure, Operetta! I will not forget about you, there are still some planned fashion series. But sadly I don't exactly know when I will be able to make more. I already found a perfect fabric for you but am not sure what to make from it and when. You know... all the other ghouls who have less fashions... some of the new friends even don't have sleeping clothes yet. There is sooo much to do!

Hehe... just wanted to tease you a bit, Clawdeen. I know too good that you are always busy with doing fashion for all your friends and family and that you have just two claws! I have much and great fashion already and sure can wait!

Phew.... I am glad then, Operetta!
And now thank you for wasting your time!

Hey, its not wasted! It was much fun showing all my stuff to the readers!

Fine!
I am glad!

And now, I stop blogging and wish a nice Sunday to everybody!

and me too!

Winter Clothing Goes On

Hi Blogmonsters,



Here is Clawdeen again with an old picture of myself.
Its my camouflage sports outfit and sure you have seen this one before... I am running out of old photos I guess, which is maybe good. Then you know all my old outfits and it is time for something new.

I have some in my planning for February already.

In January though, I'll go on doing winter clothing for my friends.
This week, I was able to finish some more which I want to show to you today. Then, its only a rest of them to do so far and everybody who lives here has some. Lets hope I finish them right in time.



The first new one I finished was for my brother Clawd. As usually, the colours on the pictures don't look as they really do because it is so dark here.
Clawd has dark brown fake leather pants, an ocre, turquise and brown striped crochet pullover and a turquise hat with ocre pompom as well as a turquise scarf. The colours suit him well.



Then, Twyla got a new vest and a scarf of the same dark purple fleece material. The old vest was awful and didn't fit at all.
The rest of the outfit is old and I am still not happy with it. Maybe next year I'll do something completeley new for her, but for this year this one will do once again.



Then, I finished winter fashion for Toralei Stripe.
Its the first time I tried out turquise for her and I like the result very much.
She got some turquise pants and an orange crochet pullover with silver and turquuise stripes which matches also her silver hat and scarf.



Here is again a group photo of those new outfits, including the second winter fashion of Cleo and the outfit for Clawdia I finished last week. Maybe here you see the colours and details on some of them better, again.



Then, for Catty Noir I came up with very light grey niki pants which look like silver a little bit, a crochet pink and purple camouflage pullover plus a light pink scarf and hat set with fitting pompons.



Last but not least, yesterday I was able to finish a new winter outfit for Frankie also.
I stitched pants for her with one black and one white leg, made a black and white scarf and a black and white striped hat. You can't see it well in the picture, but the hat has a pink flash ornament also. Then I thought the outfit needed some bright contrasting colour also and, inspired by the flashes on her boots, I made a neon yellow pullover. Frankie loves this new outfit very much, as well as I do. It came out better then suspected!

Next week, you possibly see some more winter outfits. Let's hope I finish them all.
That would then be outfits for Rochelle, Jinafire, Marisol, Neightan, Jane and Catrine.
You see, very much to do for me, a good reason to stop blogging now.

I hope you have a good week,

love and kisses,

Clawdeen Wolf!

Anleitung: Regenponcho von "My Froggy Stuff" (deutsch)

Hallo Blogleser/innen,



Hier ist Cleo mit einem Überaschungs-Post.
Einer unserer Facebook-Freunde hat uns gebeten, mal den Regenponcho auszuprobieren, den ihr bei  My Froggy Stuff finden könnt. 

Das entsprechende Poncho-Video findet ihr hier:


Da besagter Facebook-Freund deutschsprachig ist, gibt es das Tutorial wieder in zwei Sprachen. Hier die deutsche Version.

Also ging ich zu Clawdeen und erzählte ihr von dem Project und sie war so begeistert, dass sie gleich damit beginnen wollte. Wir brauchten nur noch jemanden, der den Poncho bekommen sollte, also überlegten wir eine Weile und dann war klar, wer das perfekte "Opfer" sein würde:



Frankie Stein!
Frankie ist von allem immer so begeistert... außerdem ist sie voller Elektrizität, also das richtige Mädchen für wasserdichte Kleidung. Wir fragten sie, ob sie Lust hätte, Clawdeens nächstes Fashion Projekt zu sein und natürlich sagte sie sofort zu!



Aber Clawdeen macht keine halben Sachen, wie sie sagte, und so kam es, dass sie bereits ein hübsches, aber einfaches dunkelblaues Häkelkleid für "drunter" fertig hatte, als Frankie eintraf.
Wenn ihr dieses ebenfalls machen möchtet, klickt unser Weihnachtskleid-Tutorial an.

Und jetzt war Clawdeen bereit, das Regenponcho-Projekt zu beginnen.
Und so funktioniert's:



Ihr braucht:

- eine Plastiktüte
- Klebeband (Tesafilm oder entsprechendes)
- Schere



Wir hatten Glück, eine Plastiktüte zur Verfügung zu haben, die auf einer Seite hauptsächlich blau und auf der zweiten hauptsächlich gelb war. Die gelbe Seite war perfekt für Frankie! Natürlich könnt ihr aber jede andere x-beliebige Farbe nehmen, oder auch was Gemustertes, je nach Geschmack.
Clawdeen wollte aber den Poncho in nur einer Farbe haben, also nahm sie die gelbe Seite der Tüte.



1.)
Beginnt, indem ihr ein Rechteck aus der Tüte schneidet. Die Schmale Seite sollte die ausgebreiteten Arme der Puppe bedecken und die breite etwa doppelt so lang sein. 



2.)
Faltet das Rechteck einmal über die Längsseite.



3.)
Dann faltet ihr es noch einmal, diesmal über die andere Seite.



4. )
Schneidet einen Viertel-Kreis aus wie auf dem Bild gezeigt.
Er darf nicht an einer geöffneten Seite liegen.



5.)
Für die Kapuze schneidet ihr noch ein Rechteck aus, das Kopf und Hals der Puppe bedeckt.



6.)
Faltet dieses Stück wieder über die Längsseite, aber dieses mal die bedruckte Seite nach innen.
Dann klebt ihr eine der Längsseiten zu.



7.)
Dreht die Kapuze nun auf rechts.



7.)
Jetzt fangt ihr an, die Kapuze auf den Poncho zu kleben.
Das ist etwas knifflig.
Um besser zu sehen, wie es funktioniert, seht euch lieber noch mal Froggys Video an.



8.)
Am besten beginnt ihr hinten in der Mitte, damit die Kapuze am Ende auch dort sitzt, wo sie soll.



9.)
Als nächstes haben wir die vorderen Ecken befestigt.
Danach haben wir alles rundherum mit kleinen Tesastückchen festgeklebt, erst außen und dann innen, damit das Ganze wasserdicht ist.


10.)
Am Ende haben wir auch noch die Seiten des Ponchos zusammengeklebt, damit der Roncho besser sitzt. Beginnt damit etwas unterhalb der Hand eurer Puppe.



Hier ist das Resultat!
Frankies brandneuer Regenponcho von vorn....



...und im Profil! Er sieht besser aus als erwartet!



Und nun ist Frankie glücklich, und das ist das Ende des heutigen Posts.

Vielen Dank an Levin Bee für die Inspiration 
und
My Froggy Stuff
dafür, dass sie uns gezeigt hat, wie's funktioniert!

Auf bald,

xxx Cleo xxx
