Vendor Interview- Atelier Blythe
1. Introduce yourself, who are you and where do you
live?
Hi! I’m Sharon (sassybead) Sears. I’m from the beautiful city of Seattle.
2. What do you make for Blythe?
I love to make all kinds of things for Blythe, and I sew and knit for
her. At my Blythecon table, you will find raincoats and hats, fancy
knitted berets, pretty Mighty Nighties, and a steampunk outfit or two.
3. Where can we find your creations?
I have a shop on etsy: https://www.etsy.com/shop/
4. What are your main influences?
Vintage fashions are a huge influence for me. I love color too, so that
will often influence the direction my projects take. There are many
wonderful Blythe artisans whom I admire as well!
5. How did
you get started with Blythe dolls?
My friend Heather in California introduced me to Blythe. She and a
friend wanted to get the SBL Prima Dolly collection (Ashlette, Violetta,
and Ginger), and Heather asked me if I wanted to buy Ashlette so that
we each had one. A few explorations on the Web, and I was sold! I’m one
of those people who can say I’ve never looked back since that day.
6. Do you collect anything else?
I do have other doll collections - Monster High and mini Lalaloopsies,
Liddle Kiddles. I also love demitasse cups and saucers. Oh and fabric…
yarn… but those don’t count if they’re materials for my shop do they?
7. What's one interesting fact we may not know about you?
Raffle Prize Spotlight: Happibug Customs
Tinsel
... Will she find it?
Tinsel is on the hunt of a lifetime. A long time ago in a dark, deep forest, Tinsel lost her heart. She has been searching for it ever since and is so hopeful that she'll find it in the Emerald City! She has heard that this city is magical, and that those who come seeking their dreams with an open and happy soul are often rewarded. So, Tinsel has set out, meeting other travelers and finding new friends, and having many adventures along the way!
Tinsel is happibug's donation for Blythecon Seattle. Tinsel is an RBL mold (University of Love) dolly with a "Kiss Me True" scalp, trimmed into a layered bob and over-dyed for depth. Tinsel's little Tin Man uniform is made by happibug as well, and features a stretchy silver metallic jumpsuit and hat with heart appliqués. Tinsel has had extensive carving, airbrushed make-up with hand-painted and chalk pastel details, four pairs of happibug's handpainted chips, airbrushed lids with a handpainted stitched heart, and custom pull charms. Tinsel is happibug custom #190. She was created with lots and lots of love and care, just for the attendees of Blythecon Seattle, and she is so excited to meet you! Please come see her at the raffle table, and come by and see me at my booth! Lots of love, happibug
Thank you so much Lynne for this spectacular BlytheCon raffle donation! We greatly appreciate your generosity, support, & the heart you have put into creating Tinsel for the Seattle BlytheCon!

Vendor Interview- Vinyl Belly
1. Introduce yourself, who are you and where do you live?
My
name is Yuki or AKA Killer Tomato, and I run "Vinyl Belly". I'm a 3DCG
Artist by day. I grew up on Japan, lived in Vancouver for 13 years,
and moved to San Francisco 2 years ago.
2. What do you make for Blythe?
I make outfits and custom Blythe. Lately I'm more getting into making Blythe size Venetian masks. I love sculpting :)
3. Where can we find your creations?

Website (Need to update more often but...):

4. What are your main influences?
Hmmm, as far as Blythe-outfit-wise, Marie Antoinette? Or anything I want to wear.
5. How did you get started with Blythe dolls?
I
saw a Blythe at a toy shop in Tokyo long time ago. I thought $100 for a
doll is crazy at the time so I didn't get it but kept on thinking about
it. One day I found one online and that did it.
6. Do you collect anything else?
I collect vintage Licca. I'm a big fan of 1st gen from 60's.
I've
been working on my own line of doll. One is middle size BJD and there
are few other projects I'm currently working on. Once BC Seattle is
over, I'd like to focus on finishing all of them so I can have an art
show. This and that in life takes so much time, so I really really want
to concentrate on it!
