America Singer (Part 2), The Selection in Toothpick Dolls Series

Who wouldn't want to see America Singer in toothpick doll version wearing her signature blue gown she wore on her debut on the Illea Capital Report? After I created a toothpick doll version of her first ever day dress when she arrived at the palace, it inspired me to make another America Singer toothpick doll looking regal and princess-like. I might actually make more Americas in the future since she wore a bunch of outfits in the whole series and add to that her signature outfits on the book covers of The Selection, The Elite, and The One.  But apart from being the main character of the series, she's my favorite since she's got the personality I can probably relate to in some cases. She's a little introverted (I think), doesn't have a lot of friends, likes to do things on her own, may be a little stubborn, and likes to remain grounded despite all the fancy opportunities offered by living in the palace. But she also has some characteristics I look...

Lunar New Year Toothpick Dolls

It's that time of the year when people celebrate the coming of the new year under the Lunar calendar. Chinese people celebrate this event in a very colorful way. The culture and tradition is evident on the clothes they wear, the food, the dance, and the whole celebration itself. Compared to the way my family celebrates the solar new year, it's fun in its own way. Not only do the Chinese people celebrate at this time of the year. Countries such as Brunei, Vietnam, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, North Korea and South Korea celebrate this holiday as well, however, it is also widely celebrated here in the Philippines as there are Chinese communities living in the country although it is not exactly a declared holiday. The Lunar New Year doesn't have a fixed date unlike the other celebrated holidays in the Gregorian calendar. In South Korea, the locals celebrate the new year in a duration of three days. But this year, it falls on a weekend, making it a long ...

Sally, The Nightmare Before Christmas

Apparently, Halloween is just around the corner, and by this time of the month, kids are now excited to wear their Halloween costumes. And perhaps some adults are also excited for their Halloween pranks. But I'm not, since I don't have any Halloween costume to wear even though I would gladly wear one if given the chance. But even so, I made another toothpick doll for Halloween which is, in my own opinion, a really adorable one. There's a lot of Halloween figures every year, but the most popular ones are vampires, zombies, mummies, werewolves, ghosts, witches, and Frankenstein. I've already made a vampire toothpick doll before at the start of the month of October, so I decided to make my second choice if ever I would wear a Halloween costume: Frankenstein, only the female version. I decided to make a toothpick doll version of Sally from the movie The Nightmare Before Christmas. She may just be a rag doll, seemingly similar with Frankenstein in ap...
