KittyKat asked:


The really really detailed ones, that may be for photography. Venice, Italy is famous for making beautiful masks that require a lot of detail, so what about very unique dolls?

Bobble Head Dolls Make Great Gifts

Friday, February 19th, 2010
John Miller asked:


Have you ever seen a bobble head before? It is a one of the most popular collectible items and it is characterized mainly as a toy which has a head that bobbles or moves with the slightest tap or movement. So how does it work and what is it made of? This is a kind of toy wherein the head is connected to a spring. This spring is then coupled to the toy’s body. Moreover, the torso of the doll is smaller compared to the size of the head. This creates more emphasis to the wobbling head. This collectible is also known for its other names such as nodder, bobbing head doll or wobbler.

For sure you have seen one in cars and in stores. Bobble head dolls are very popular among sports fans because most sporting events sell or give out these nodders as a souvenir or as a collectible item. These bobble head toys first made its popular appearance during the 1950’s during the release of the Beatles bobble head collection. Since then, these collectible toys have seemed to be crazed by sports and music fans all over the world. However, its popularity has died down for quite some time after the 1980’s. But it slowly became fashionable again when bobble head manufacturers found economical ways to produce it. These makers have already created nodders that were made of inexpensive materials such as plastic so the production of various bobble head dolls became alive once more.

Collectibles and bobble head toy series have been released for promotional and advertising purposes while some are produced for wobbler buffs to add to their collection. Aside from that, these bobble head toys and dolls are great gift ideas for men and for guy friends. Most nodder collectors look for these dolls depicting cartoon and movie characters, popular soccer players and even those in other sporting events. Some popular food chains even have their own bobble head toys of their mascots as a souvenir item for their customers. Aside from that, more and more wobbler manufacturers are into making customized nodders. If you want to have an actual toy figure of your own, you can simply give your photo and voila, in a matter of days you will a bobbing head doll version of yourself.

Most wobbler manufacturers are already accepting customized requests from clients so you can definitely have a nodder doll of your favorite star or your cherished dog. Want to know where to look for the best bobble head manufacturer? There are tons of sites on the internet where you will have a wide variety of choices. Custom bobbing head items may differ from one manufacturer to another so it is best if you do some canvassing first. The price also varies depending on the size, the intricacy, the design and the material to be used. Some plastics are much more durable than others and some are made of high-grade material. But for sure, custom bobble heads make a nice gift or souvenir suited for different occasions and events.

Jumeau Dolls: Their Golden Age

Thursday, February 18th, 2010
Al Wood asked:


The Jumeau Company were the finest French dolls makers in the time of the world’s greatest dolls. The latter half of the 19th Century was the golden age of doll making and France was at its center. The world looked to France as the masters of doll making and their dolls were, and still are, the most prized dolls amongst collectors. The heyday of Jumeau came in 1860’s and 1870’s. The production techniques had reached their height, the company were innovating and changing their dolls to meet the desires of customers and their skills had reached their pinnacle.

Jumeau and Bisque Dolls

In its early period, Jumeau had made their dolls from papier mache or porcelain. But at this time the new material of bisque was being used in Germany to produce dolls more cheaply and quickly than was possible for the French manufacturers who were still working in porcelain. The head of the Jumeau Company, Francois Jumeau, decided that he too should switch to using bisque to make his dolls in the 1860s. This lead to a huge increase in the output of dolls. Each year saw an increase in the number of dolls the Jumeau company were making to an unprecedented number. At this time, Jumeau were exporting their dolls and becoming world famous for the quality of their dolls.

Jumeau Bebes Go Into Production

In 1874, Francios Jumeau handed over the reigns of the Jumeau company to Emile Louis Jumeau. This change saw a shift in the design of Jumeau dolls. Up to that point, Jumeau had been making fashion ladies (or ‘poupees’). These dolls were made in the image of full grown women. Emile Louis Jumeau realised that young girls much prefer to play with dolls that look like little babies rather than those that look like women. As a result, he shifted production away from poupees and towards the new range of Jumeau Bebes. Jumeau Bebes were designed to look more like babies (and increasingly moved in that direction as time went on).

The Jumeau Bebes proved to be a huge success and are still massively popular amongst doll collectors today. With the move to Bebe dolls, Emile Louis Jumeau established Jumeau dolls as the highest quality and most sought after dolls in the world.

How Sex Dolls Can Ramp Up Your Sex Life

Monday, February 15th, 2010
David Tottenham asked:


Fortunately for those who are into autoeroticism, gone are the days when sex dolls were manufactured as scary-looking blowup dolls with unnatural bodily proportions and comic faces. The sex toy manufacturers of today have greatly improved the way that sex dolls are made – making this type of sex toy suitable for upping the ante in your sex life.

The Anatomy of a Sex Doll

There are many types of sex dolls which you can purchase in either online or brick-and-mortar sex shops these days. First, there is the sex doll or love doll which are made up of particular parts of the female anatomy. For example, you can buy a sex doll which only has the erogenous parts of the female body, including the torso, breasts, vagina and ass. 

The second type of sex doll that you can purchase is the full-fledged blowup doll. They come in a variety of prices and materials which include the following:

- You can buy cheap, inflatable sex dolls which are made of welded vinyl.  These have an artificial vagina or penis but the details on the face and body are not that intricate.

- There are also the mid-range sex dolls which are made of heavy latex.  They’re a bit more durable than the low-end inflatable dolls which you can buy in the market.

- Finally, there are sex dolls which are on the higher end of the price range.  These are the realistic-looking ones which are made of silicone and the body has flexible joints so that they can be positioned for a variety of sexual acts.

What Sex Dolls are Used for


As you probably already know, sex dolls are used to aid masturbation.  If you’re preparing for some solo love play, having a life-sized blowup sex doll next to you can be the next best thing to having sex with a woman or a man – because yes, there are sex dolls out there which are made to honor the male form.

Another ingenious way to use sex dolls is to simulate a threesome.  For example, if your partner has always fantasized about having a ménage-a-trois but you’re a bit hesitant about introducing a third party into your bedroom, a sex doll is a good enough way to live out that particular sexual fantasy.

Making love to a celebrity or an adult film star is one other fantasy that you can get to live out with sex dolls if you buy ones which are modeled after them.

Can you see how much variety and spice these sex dolls can add to your sex life? So what are you waiting for? Invest in a good-quality sex doll now to add to your sex toy collection to sizzle things up in your bedroom!

All About Costumes of Dolls

Saturday, February 13th, 2010
Burhan.S.Barodawala asked:


 

The term costume can generally refer to dress and wardrobe, or to the unique style of dress of a particular period, class or people. Costume may also refer to the creative arrangement of accessories in a statue, picture, play or poem, suitable to place, time or other situations described or represented, or to a particular style of clothing worn to represent the wearer as a character or kind of character other than their usual persona at a social event like masquerade, artistic theatrical performance or in a fancy dress party.

Doll costumes are considered as an essential part of the fun of playing with the doll. When doll first appeared, the costumes were in the form of fashion model outfits. Since then, however, outfits can be worn for nearly any situation or occasion.

Children loves very much to play with the beautiful little doll costumes and the fun accessories that came with each outfit. Much attention was given to the creation and design of these miniature costumes. Doll outfits consist of hems, minute buttons, zippers and even linings. The quality finish of these dolls costumes was attained by hand finishing.

There are numerous costumes available for dolls. Here are some tips on getting best costumes for your dolls:

· Begin with typical Barbie and ken doll patterns of clothes.

· Choose the theme or style of your doll’s costume.

· Take into account the type or quality of fabrics.

· Be ready to change your patterns.

· Enjoy with embellishments.

One of the most common places where people see costumes is in theatre, television or in a film. In combination with other features, theatrical costumes can aid actors to portray characters age, profession, gender role, personality, social class and also information regarding the historical period or era, time of day and geographic location, along with the weather or season of the theatrical performance. Often, stylized theatrical costumes can overstate some feature of a character.

Costumes also serve as a platform for children for exploring and role-playing. Children can dress up in different forms; for e.g. characters from fiction or history like princesses, cowboys or pirates, common jobs such as police officers or nurses, or animals which are seen in farms or zoos.

Another very well-liked situation where costumes are used are for sporting events, where people are dressed as representative of their team. Animal costumes which are visually very same as mascot costumes are also trendy among the members of the furry fandom where they are recognized as fur suits.
