*****CLOSED**** GIVEAWAY TIME! (Halloween Giveaway 2017)****CLOSED****

Hi Blogmonsters!

Here is Clawdeen doing the weekly blogspot.

And I have a nice surprise for you today:

Its again GIVEAWAY time!

Awooo!!!

Usually, I would have waited until next week, but I don't have a thing this week to post, and so I decided I would start it one week earlier as planned.

So, what will you get this time?

Everything is packed in this box. Maybe it will be just a big letter instead later, because the box is a bit huge, but nevertheless there is a lot in it.

Exclusive, unique things, mainly.

Wanna see what you would get if you win?

Some of us went through their warderobes and decided to give away some of their old clothing, everything handmade. I finished a lot of brand boo things, so we thought maybe you would have interest in some of the older stuff.

The clothing doesn't always have the beast quality and fitting, also the better fit the classic MH dolls and not so much the reboots. But it is free, and if you want a little bit warderobe for your dolls, you maybe should grab this lot.

Also you will get some extras.

Here is what everything on the picture is:

1: A MH pen set that had been a german MH magazine extra

2: A scullette motive to iron on to your clothes, this had been part of the Electrified DVD

3: a silver crochet mimiskirt that originally had been our Toraleis

4 and 5: crochet winter pants and visor, originally made for my sister Howleen

6: a one-shoulder top, originally worn by our Rochelle

7: sewn pants, they had been worn by our Cleo

8: Cleos worn golden top, a little bit damaged sadly

9: Catrines jeans skirt

10: a brand boo Blogshirt just for you, not worn by anybody yet, orange Halloween edition ;-)

11: striped crochet mini skirt, originally our Rochelles,

12: powder pink leggings that Rochelle had worn under the mini skirt

13: Cleos old black felt coat with fake fur collar

14: a black neckholder top from Viperine

15: a silver pipecleaner bow that had been part of a party outfit from Abbey

16: a hat from Twyla

17: a pullover from Venus

18: a party top from Abbey

19: another neckholder top, maybe Catrines

20: a fuzzy winter hat from Cleo

21: a fuzzy skirt from Abbey

22: a red neckholder top from Toralei

23: a hat from Abbey. Doesn't fit the best sadly, sorry.

24: Viperines old summer culottes, maybe they need a new rubber band

25: Monster High Mini: Geek Shriek Draculaura, she was a double

26: some self made jewellery

27: Neferas old summer dress. This fits the big sister dolls.

You want to have this and want to know how to get it?

Now go and win!

Good Luck!

Now I just have to wait if anybody of you has an interest in getting all this.


Have a fangtastic weekend and a clawsome week!

Bye for today,

Fall 2017: Second Five Outfits

Hi Blogmonsters,

Here is Clawdeen with the second Wave of my self made Fall Collection outfits for this year.

I am not one who needs to be called first, usually, but since you may have already seen one of those outfits I made for myself.

The earrings are new, too, Calaminthe found some nice earring packs at Tedi, Germany, and brought them home for us dolls.

I don't know if you still remember my old fall outfit, crocheted top and skirt and a green felt coat.

that one was falling apart and I decided that I liked the green coat so much that I wanted to have a brand boo one and then, why not, a complete boo look to go with it.

On this picture you see the green coat, sewn from green knit material, having a small collar and huge statement buttons to close it.

Under the coat, I wear a black blouse with green bean pattern - yes, I know, beans are not the perfect pattern for a werewolf ghoul, but I liked how it looked and also the colours.

This bean pattern top is sleeveless and has a black bow at the top and fake buttons at the front - it closes at the back.

I wear it together with a simple, but classic pencil skirt in black and black leggings that originally had been Ever-After-High tights. It was a tiny bit to small for myself and so I cut off the feet of those and made leggings for myself.

After I finished my own boo outfit, I made one for the last member of my family who didn't have one so far: my tiny sister Weredith Wolf.

For her, I made a pink and berry coloured striped playsuit, and to let it look like an outfit for the day I added a white collar and some fake purple rhinestone buttons.

The pattern for the romper suit didn't work out perfectly, but this was the tiniest outfit I ever made. Maybe her next one will look better.

Also, Kelpie Blue got her first self made fashion.

She looks a bit stiff here modeling it.

For her, I made a light purple tunique with two layers of purple lace and a simple mini skirt made from blue jeans material with anchor pattern.

Kelpie told me, she likes it very much and if she couldn't get more outfits.

Of course she will!

Venus McFlytraps latest fall fashion isn't completeley new.

I used the green and pink upcycled Barbie pants I made for her one or two falls ago again but added a new to sdince the old pullover didn't work anymore.

Her boo top is from pink batic material, and to complete the look I also finished a black leather belt with green rhinestone studs and a belt buckle that originally had been a button I found.

Upcycling is totally okay for Venus and so she is very happy with what she got and decided to give away her old pullover.

And last but not least, here is Abbey Bominable modeling her latest fall outfit.

IT was a little bit difficult to make something for her that looked totally Abbey but still more fall then winter.

I had good luck to find a cute piece of blue fabric that has a pattern of white dots that look like first snow - snow that falls down usually in November and not the really thick snow that you have in winter.

I made a balloon dress from it and added a white collar.

Also I finished a pair of blue pompom earrings for her.

Then I thought that it still looked a tiny bit boring and sewed a white faux furry bag for her, and now I am happy and Abbey is, too.

Its so good to make your friends feeling comfy!

Well, and here is the group shot for today:

Venus McFlytrap, me carrying my sister Weredith, Kelpie Blue and Abbey Bominable.

I hope you like my boo outfits and I also hope you got some inspiration for trying out making some yourself, maybe.

It doesn't need to be perfect at the beginning, mine wasn't as well. Just use your forgotten school sewing, crochet or knit skills and try out what might work.

Don't give up if the result isn't what you wanted it to be. Practice will help you getting better with each outfit you do, believe me!

There are hundreds of tutorials for doll clothes on YouTube that might help you finding out how to do something, for beginners as well as for people who already have better skills.

I would love to see YOUR outfits. Feel free to send pics of your own fashion to me and I will show them at my facebook site.

For today, the blogspot is at its end.

So as always, I hope you have a fangtastic weekend and a clawsome week!

Bye for today,

💚💜💜💚

Clawdeen Wolf!

SPECIAL: Clawd Wolf

Hello Ghouls and Mansters,

This is Cleo deNile, and I am sitting again on the pink couch.

This usually means either a Ghoul Special or a Giveaway.

This time it is another Special - but not a ghoul, but one of the beast looking mansters of Monster High will be my guest.

Not THE beast looking - this of course would be MY Deuce, but my guest is known as one of the better-known mansters too.

And yes - you already may have guessed it, todays special guest is Draculauras crush and Clawdeens brother.

Here is Clawd Wolf!

Thank you for introducing me as one of the beast, Cleo, and hello, out there!

Now, Clawd, would you pl... whats this?

Hello, Barker!

No, thats not YOUR special, its your brothers! So would you please go and play with your other siblings instead of...

...its okay for me, Cleo. I promised Barker to hunt cars with him after the interview. Also, he is one of my siblings, and my pack means everything to me.

Can I stay, please?

Well, if you promise to be quiet for some minutes, come here and sit next to me.

And you will get your own special one day.

Really? Promised?

Um... yes, I think so. But as Clawd told you, please be a good whelp and be quiet, okay?

Um yes, promised, Cleo.

Well then... Clawd. Would you please show us your warderobe after telling us some secrets about you we don't know?

I guess most of the Monster High fans know everything about me. I love casket ball, my pack and of course Draculaura... I also always try to be good at school, of course. Clawdeen is the one who knows everything about fashion and so its fangtastic that she creates most of my warderobe.

Lets go to the warderobe part, please, so Barker doesn't have to wait too long.

Really?

I promised.

When I came here, I had been wearing this festival outfit, shorts and muscle shirts, watch, a pair of glasses.

I came together with Draculaura who had been on the same festival with me.

This had been my first summer look made by my sis Clawdeen:

Wide baggy jeans, a crochet pullover made with camouflage yarn and a grey kerchief around my neck.

Another summer outfit and one I really like is this one:

Turquise top, open loose shirt to go over it together with brown corduory bermudas.

And this is what I am wearing when I go swimming, turquise shorts with copper writing on one leg and I have a black towel to dry my fur after swimming... though I prefer to shake off the water.

This is my sleep wear:

Top and shorts again crocheted, the sleeping mask and slippers are made from felt.

Here is my first spring outfit. The tunique had been one that had been upcycled from an old Ken tunique from the 1970es, made by Calaminthes grandma.

Sadly, its now completeley ripped, we couldn't save it at least.

Those shoes are from Cindy dolls boyfriend Paul, I think, or else, but since they fit me they are now mine.

Here is the Christmas outfit Clawdeen made for every ghoul and manster here.

Mine is an ocre coloured pullover and hat with white brim and scarf, together with black pants she made for each of the mansters.

And this is my winter outfit.

Pullover and hat are crocheted again, the hat has an ocre pompom that goes together with the striped pullover. The pants are dark brown and made out of a stiff faux leather piece, but I really like them.

I know not everybody in the world knows about Olper Schützenfest. To learn a bit more about it you may visit the Schützenfest blogspots.

My outfit is a white T-Shirt and green and white striped bermudas, and, of course, as every manster in Olpe should have, the typical hat, the "Schützenkappe".

This is what I am wearing today, my fall ensemble, brown striped pants, brown tunique and dark brown vest.

This is my party outfit.

Clawdeen told me she planned to to other party outfits for us mansters one day and this would be my Gala outfit then, instead.

Until then, its both.

I have a black panne velvet blazer with gold dots and collar over a brown paisley top.

The pants are real leather this time, and black.

This one is my new spring outfit, after the old tunique was gone Clawdeen sew a new one with paw print. The pants are the same.

And here is my so far last outfit, made for sports:

A yellow muscle shirt with paw printed on and fitting chequered bermudas as well as a brown headband and two waistbands.

I also have another sporty combination that came as a gift one day, its the vampire CAM boys outfit. But there is no picture existing so far of me wearing that one, sorry.

And this is all.

Fine! Can we go now and hunt cars, Clawd?

No! First we have to say goodbye to our blog visitors, of course!

And when will we do this, Cleo?

Well. Better now, it seems.

Um.

Well, blogspotters, this had been this weeks blogspot.

We say goodbye to you and wish you a majestic weekend and a royal week:

💝💋💝

REVIEW: Shriek Wrecked Clawdeen Wolf

Ahoy, Blogmonsters!

Here is the weekly blogspot on Clawdeens Photoblog, and it's review time again!

I know that this look isn't the latest in the shops to get, and I know too that we had a review last week as well.

But surprisingly Calaminthe found this version of myself in the shelves of Müller, Germany for cheap because the box had been opened already, and since full articulated dolls are not necessarily the usual thing she decided to bring it home - she never can have enough Clawdeens and Cleos and I am very glad as well for two reasons:

Reason one: my joints get a little bit weak with the time because I change my clothes very often and travel alot, and that is what Cleo does as well.

Reason two: I am very glad to get another very cute outfit!

I guess next week or the week afterwards you will see my new basic look again, though, because that version of myself is still perfectly all right.

Well, now I will share every detail of my boo look with you.

Today I am:

SHRIEK WRECKED CLAWDEEN WOLF

When you find me in the stores my box looks like this from the front.

This one had been completeley open, but Calaminthe managed to take a picture as it would be still shut.

Since there is already a review of Shriek Wrecked Catrine deMew in my blog you just have to follow the link to see the description.

My box looks the same, just of course with the difference that you will find MY artwork and name on it instead of Catrines.

This applies to the back of the box also, of course. 

You also will find a hint at the bottom that you can pull out my ellbow and wrist joints and two pictures of Catrine and Gil Webber who are also part of the Shriek Wrecked line.

As usually, when I show you how a doll is pinned on the background display, here is the hint that all you can see here is everything you get:

No comb, no doll stand and no diary is included to most of the reboot lines.

But I have some other accessories, and I show them to you next.

Here is the over-all-view of my boo look.

My hair is brown with purple streak and hold together in a ponytail at the bottom of my head.

Over it, as accessorie, I am wearing a salmon coloured plastic scarf with pirate hat fascinator, you will have a better look at it from the front.

ON this picture you can also see how to find the right points to pierce earrings to your dolls.

Because you need a hot needle for this you should, if you are not adult, ask your parents if you are allowed to do it or if they could do this for you.

On the front, the little pirate hat fascinator is black with a "paw and crossbone" motive.

The eyeshadow I am wearing this time is a light purple that goes together with my clothes and salmon lipstick, of course also fitting my look.

Also I am wearing a huge pirate look necklace with nautic charms and a crescent moon molded on in gold.

And over my Shirt I am wearing a salmon coloured plastic belt in shape of a scarf as well and with golden "claw and crossbones" motive.

The top is purple, black and white striped and those stripes look a little bit... shredded.

And I wear knee long black pants with golden detail at the bottom of the legs.

I love my fierce boo pirate boots. Those are purple, have peg leg heels and golden crossbone, compass and crescent moons. They also have some more details, like buckles.

And last not least I come with a salmon coloured beach bag which is open at the top and repeats the motives of my other accessories perfectly.

I am very happy with my boo look.

Since this is the third articulated reboot version of myself Calaminthe bought, I will not repeat to show you how my body looks, since this is already done in this Review. Just follow the link if you like.

You will find some pictures there of the differences between my classic and new bodytype.

For today, the blogspot is done and I will continue working on boo clothes for me, my friends and my family.

I hope to see you back here next week. 

Byebye for now,

have a fangtastic weekend and a clawsome week!

💜💚💜💋

Garden Ghouls Toralei Stripe Review

Hello Blogmonsters,

Clawdeen Wolf here, its time for the weekly blogspot.

And look who changed her look:

Toralei Stripe now has her reboot version too.

Well no - the shirt she is wearing here is not part of it, its the fall outfit I finished for her last year.

Here is Toraleis complete review:

GARDEN GHOULS TORALEI

THIS is how Garden Ghoul Toralei looks when you find her in her box.

Its the usual reboot plastic box with cardbord background, but this time it has a fresh design with scullette flowers in green, orange and black at the front, Toraleis name and of course the Monster High Logo.

This picture shows the boxes back, its also similar to other MH boxes, mainly black with white descriptions.

There isn't an artwork of the doll in the box, but you will find a picture of the other dolls avalable in this doll line.

Here is a close-up of that photo.

Next to Totalei you also can buy a Cleo and a Twyla, three smaller fairy monsters and, in the middle, Treesa Thornwillow who is much bigger then the average monster and has some function.

Calaminthe decided that Toralei is the only doll of the Garden Ghouls that will come into our home, so watch out for reviews of the other dolls elsewhere, YouTube is always a good adress for doll reviews.

At the bottom of the backside you also will find two small graphics that describe how to pull on or off the wings of the doll.

Usually these pics also show how to pull out the arm and hand joints of the fully articulated dolls.

It seems though Mattel gave this up - you can NOT pull out Toraleis hands or ellbows, please don't try it out, your doll could be damaged.

Opening up the box you will find Toralei pinned on a nice background showing an (un)natural landscape with branches, farn, hills and so on in black green and white colours.

The scenery is framed in the usual coffin shaped border, this time in yellow.

Again, Toralei doesn't come with acessories like a doll stand, brush or diary.

here she is, free of all the pegs and rubber bands that hold her on the background.

As always, the daughter of werecats has an orange skin with brown stripes on legs, arms and face, green cat eyes, cat ears on top of her head and a long thin cat tail.

Also this time she has a pair of bootiful black and orange butterfly wings which, wide open, have a tiger face pattern.

Here is a picture of Toraleis back with just one wing.

As you can see, you can (carefully, please!) pull them out of their holes.

They are single wings with joints so you can also open and close them,.

The tail can be pulled out also.

This makes it easier to dress your doll.

Also, I wanted you to see that the back of Toraleis dress is completely black.

Here are Toraleis wings, pulled out of her back. They are painted from the front side, but they are a bit translucent so you can see the pattern from the back as well.

Also, the back has a relief that follows the pattern, this way they look nice from both sides.

Here you also can see the joints of the wings which means they can be opened and closed when connected to the doll.

Garden Ghouls Toralei has long, mainly orange hair with bangs. It is cut layered at the back and on one side, Tori has a turquise, crimped streak and bangs part.

The orange is much brighter as on older dolls, I totally like the new colour.

Here you have a close-up at Toraleis face - not the only one in this review.

There are some differences again to old Toralei, I'll show you later.

Toralei is wearing turquise eyeshadow and some playful dots of the same colour under her eyes and light red lipstick.

On her head, she is wearing cute grey shades with facette eyes and antennaes, in the middle you can see an insects head.

Here they are, pulled town onto her eyes.

You see, they look cute, also have something like stings over the eye part and the antennaes are a little bit different, one up and one a bit more down.

Here is the clawsome neckholder-dress Toralei comes with.

It is mainly black with a pattern of yellow and turquise butterflies and some cat scratchmarks.

The top is black mesh and closed at the back of her neck with velcro.

The dress is a bit asymetric and has two ruffled layers at the bottom:

One in Toraleis favourite colour red and under it a second one, black mesh again.

Even though the back material is plain black satin, I really love the dress.

Also, Toralei has long hair and a huge pair of wings, and more pattern on the back is totally unnecessary this time.

Here are Toraleis high heel sandals.

At the front they look like an insect without wings, the ankles and the soles have some studs which are so typically for Tori and the heels are fishbones which also fits to Toraleis usually clothing themes.

The colour is a bright orange.

Here is a picture of everything Garden Ghoul Toralei comes with.

The dress can stand alone. 😉

Now I want to show you the differences between classic Toraleis body and the body of her reboot version.

The old one is on the left.

Mainly both bodies are standard monster high bodies, but of course with a cat tail this time and some stripews on one leg and on the opposite arm.

The new body is wider and has less hollow beg.

I hope its okay not to show it from the side or back again, both dolls though have holes for the tail and Garden Ghouls Toralei has two more for the wings.

You can pull out classic Toraleis ellbows and hands as well as the tail, but as I told you before, on the new doll you can only disconnect the wings and the tail.

This way you can not loose hands or arm parts, thats the good news.

There are differences at Toraleis stripes on the leg.

While the classic doll has five on her upper leg and three on the lower, new Tori only has four stripes at the lower legs.

For me personally again this doesn't matter much because most of the time the doll is dressed and you will not see too much of the upper leg.

Now to the faces, and here you can see differences between classic (in this case Field Trip) and reboot Toralei doll as well, differences which make her look cuter for me.

The first thing catching your eye may be the nose:

Now Toralei has a cat nose! It is reddish brown.

Also, Toraleis eyes are a teeny tiny little itsy bit bigger then they had been before, and now they have lashes on the upper eye as well.

This is all, you see, no biggie.

****

And yesss, this is the last picture for today, we are at the end of the review and weekly blogspot.

As always, I hope you liked it and as always, I hope for some comments of you. 💗

I guess maybe this is the last review for a while, but you will never know.

For today, everythings said, just not


Goodbye for today,

have a fangtastic weekend and a clawsome week!
