Wearables Pukipuki DIY Projects

This thread was createad for me to try and test some DIYs I found online to see how easy and possible they actually were, but I realized I end up doing so many changes in every project that I will just change the whole propose.

1. Wig
   The first time I posted I was trying a poseable wig by AkameruKawaii on youtube, but after trying two times I realized glued wigs are no for me cause I feel to anxious about it. I made some research on sewed wigs, and realized that even better would be a ventilated wig, so thats my next project! I'm not gonna follow any specific tutorial, so wish me lucky doing such a thing for a tiny like pukipuki.
   [UPDATE] Ventilated wig was not a sucess, but not a fail either. Next time I'm doing with human hair!
2. Room box

 

DIY VENTILATED WIG

Tutorial [wig cap // knot // tip // tear repair] | Modifications: I cant knot like its supposed to be, so I'm doing it manually. | Start project day: 22/06/2019 | Tips: 1 Use a good fiber or no fancy tecniche will make it look good. 2 Since pukipuki is so smaill use a big piece of lace and tie on it's feet to hold in place while you work at it, a smaller one make it harder to work with the end lines.


Material:

• Kanekalon fiber (someone used it for a bjd wig and I loved how it doesnt look like too much in a doll).
• French Lace (you are supposed to use swiss lace instead, but I couldnt find it in my country for the sake of my life, so french it will be).
• Ventilation Needle.

Progress:

DX 28/07/2019 - Totally forgot this journal x_x'

Spoiler

The process is going well, in the start I made some tears so I plan to repair it when I finish knoting hair.

DX 29/07/2019 - I will take it for finished, I guess big part of why I don't like its the material, so next time I'm doing a human hair one agai.

Spoiler

DX 30/07/2019 - Gave it a better cut and put some curly humair hair finishers (cause thats what I have), I don't even know how its called in english.

 

Thank you for the company in this project! I'm currently glueing the hair to the wig cap, and my short experience tells me: Go for the non-stylable wig! Unless you really want the stylable wig, making more than one wig with different hairstyles is probable easier than making one styleable. I mean, I never did one before, but seeing the tutorials, working with the wefts seem a lot less time consuming. Also, I'm worried about the wig durability, since its glued by only the tip it probably wont last many years.
I thought about doing a sewn wig before - at the time I don't even knew about glued wigs, but I heard the glued one was better for the tinies and when my doll arrived I noticed her wigs are glued so I thought "that must be right"... Now that the durability came to my mind, I'm thing for doing a sewn one too anyway and see for myself.

 

DIY VENTILATED WIG 2

Tutorial [wig cap // knot // tip // tear repair] | Modifications: I cant knot like its supposed to be, so I'm doing it manually. | Start project day: somewhere in 2020 | Tips: 1 Use a good fiber or no fancy tecniche will make it look good. 2 Since pukipuki is so smaill use a big piece of lace and tie on it's feet to hold in place while you work at it, a smaller one make it harder to work with the end lines.


Material:

• Human hair (last time the fiber sucked, so now I decided to not waist time with weird fibers and try the real deal already).
• French Lace (you are supposed to use swiss lace instead, but I couldnt find it in my country for the sake of my life, so french it will be).
• Ventilation Needle.

Progress:

Material:

• Doll house or Wood Semibox.
• Paint (you are supposed to use acrylic, but my sister bought fabric paint and I was like "whatever" as it worked for the roof color, but I bought PVA for the rest because it just looked better).
