My collection of Ari dolls is often supplemented with new dolls. I am grateful to my regular and new clients for their questions and requests to wear this or that doll from their collections. Such requests are the main reason to buy new dolls.
I have already written articles about dolls of the German brand ARI.
Ari dolls are very popular with collectors. Most often they are bought to play or to create clothes. But some people find other uses for them. You can create collages or showcases, or wooden boxes with handmade little things.
Modern story about German ARI vintage dolls.
I am very pleased and inspired by their growing popularity among doll lovers. There are more and more of them in different countries and their collections have several different ARI dolls.
More recently my collection has been expanded with several new ARI dolls. I want you to meet them.
The size range of ARI dolls is quite wide and starts with the smallest miniature dolls only 2 inches tall.
Everything’s fine with the little Ari dolls, but here are the faces…
Sometimes the nose is flattened, some lips are not in place, some eyes are on different levels)).
Ari dolls were cheap, so the manufacturers didn’t particularly try to make their faces pretty.
One of my clients gave me a doll that depicts Mom’s doll. This doll is four inches tall. She has a thin waist, beautifully molded hair and slippers painted in black.
And as usual, as a coincidence, one of my longtime and regular clients in Norway asked me to dress up Mama doll from the Ari family. The new outfit got in touch very quickly and goes far to Oslo. By the way, I am now listening to Monica Christensen’s novels about Svalbard, and the images of houses on the island inspired me to wear this outfit.
And a little more about new doll dresses.
Creating very small puppet clothes requires skill and materials. Tools and yarns need to be thin to make the dresses look perfect.
I’m constantly looking for new materials, new yarns to work with.
The latest collection of doll dresses is an amazing collection, each dress is made with very thin spokes and a hook. I suggest you look at new doll dresses. All of them are in the shop on INSPIREUPLIFT
