I have a ton of art prints from cons from pre-covid times lying around, and it's doubtful I will sell prints again in the future. So I'm running this campaign to both clear them out and to help those in need!

From May 5th to June 5th, I'll be donating 80% of what I make from these print sales to Doctors Without Borders! A post will be made on my socials and Ko-fi on June 6th with the donation recipt total!

I will be shipping worldwide. Please share this around if you or any friends would like to pick up one or a few prints! Let's raise lots of money for DWB!!!

Hey guys! This isnt sewing related but I'm doing a limited print run over on my sketchblog to try and raise money for DWB!! If you could share this around that would be much appreciated!!

Part 2: A Dream of an Autumn Garden

A few more photos of Mr. Morpheus, continuing from my post here!

As I said on the other photoset, I'm very happy & proud of him! I'm happy I decided to take my time to get him just how I wanted & edit the photos I took nicely. I hope you all love him too. Sweet dreams~

I have included a bunch of Cool Facts about how I made him under the cut if you are so inclined!

Part 1: A Dream of the Trees

He is known by many names- Prince of Stories, Shaper, Lord Morpheus, Dream of the Endless - but many a child 'round the world hearing stories at bedtime know him simply as The Sandman.

It's my pleasure to share this project with you after sitting on it for so long! The Sandman (Neil Gaiman) is a profoundly important & personal piece of literature to me, & Mr. Dream such an important figure, I absolutely needed to bring him into the waking world. I worked, reworked & re-reworked on my interpretation of him until finally saying "done!" in December of 2022.

I learned so much about what I could accomplish sculpting with fabric, I'm very proud of him & love him terribly. I really hope you will enjoy him too!

(more photos to come!)

Big Reveal #3 Teaser!

Time for the third thing I've been dying to show you guys! Take a look at the following photo....

Whomever could this be, looking at the birds?

It is someone I finally called finished after working on them for a year. It took me lots of trial, error, blood, sweat & tears (all literal)

This project has actually been "done" for over a year, but I've taken my time taking photos and editing them. I will finally share the photos starting next Friday!!! I really hope you will enjoy my magnum opus.

A hint: it is someone you may get a visit from as you drift off to sleep πŸ’«

Reveal #2: Beamie's Buddies Website!!

The last few months I have been hard at work making my own website!!!! It's a goal I've had for many years & it's finally becoming reality. The site isn't up in beta yet but as soon as it is I will let you know!

It will be released with the following functions:

  • archive gallery with multiple sections so you can view many of my dolls over the years!
  • about page so you can learn the history of Beamie's Buddies & a little about me!
  • contact page
  • custom order page (with catalogue download) with an overview of how custom orders work!
  • FAQ page for all your questions, from shipping to doll construtcting to repairing
  • responsive for mobile & desktop

In the future after release I hope to include the following features:

  • online shop (to take over from my Etsy) to allow for a truly one stop shop. All listings will be put here in the future once developed!
  • customer login zone where you could keep track of your orders & correspondence!
  • online Build-A-Buddy- a simple dollmaker-type game where you can build your dream doll & it will export it to me in the form of a custom order! Will make ordering so much easier & visual

Stay tuned for my release announcement & I can't wait to share this project with you!

A gentleman with a storied arrival! This is Rieve, a D&D character commission that was meant as a winter gift. However, he decided to take his own path and get tangled up in the postal system- going there, back, and there again! (with a twin even!)

Now that he has arrived in time to hail Spring, I can share him with you all! I loved his jewelry and little tattoos, which he will proudly share with you below:

Project Reveal #1!!

For years I've wanted to make my own line of dolls, and I've finally started! I can't wait to share my ideas with you! 🌱πŸͺ΄πŸ„

What are some interesting themes you'd like to see a doll line based off of?

Time to share some of the recent winter commissions!

This is a dolly of Prairie Dawn, one of the Muppets from the original 70's TV show! Made for the customer's mother as it was her favorite Muppet as a kid~ It was fun to try and emulate the Muppet style of face & eyes! Ain't she sweet?

πŸ”₯πŸ’€Prince & Princess of the Underworld πŸ”₯πŸ’€

I had the privilege of crafting Zagreus and his new lil sis Melinoe from Hades (and Hades 2) as one of the prizes at this years Desert Bus for Hope, an online telathon supporting Child's Play Charity for children in hospitals and domestic violence shelters! Tune in from Nov 11 to approx Nov 18 for a chance at them!

Both of them are 12" high, posable, and come with their signature weapons, a couple glasses of ambrosia, and a DB-themed Pact of Punishment. Had so much fun making them and hope a lucky bidder enjoys them as much as I do!

I'll be posting detail shots of each sibling in the coming days!

TODAY between 2pm-8pm CST, you could Win these kids in a giveaway!!! Tune into Desert Bus for Hope! (don't forget to make a donor account!)
