Blogging Barbies-Guest Post

My creative and crafty friend Jill, er...Barbie... has made some fun and funky pillows for her girls' bedroom.  Check out how these gals in Australia roll...and they don't seem to break a sweat!  Take it away, blogging dolls!

"Have you ever seen so much BLUE in a girls room?  It's just not right I tell you - something needs to be done!"
"Come on Bratz - time for some more sewing"
"Ok, I've found the pink box - and look what mum's put in the scraps! I mean this is totally OUR fabric isn't it?"
"And here's more pink - my gosh mum is a bit messy isn't she?"
"A BIT? You call this heap a BIT of a mess? 
Honestly, if she actually took the time to sort through this, who knows what she might find?
Anyway, I need to iron MY fabric since it's been all crumpled and stuffed in the box. No respect....."
"There! Now let's just snip through these booties here.."
"NOOOO don't you dare - they're my favourite, you go play with your Barbie fabric and leave us to the Bratz stuff!"
"What Barbie fabric? Ohh... erm...."
"Right, I think we're ready to go onto the machine now girls."
"OK, I'm all set - push the pedal!"
"Easier said than done! Er, it's rather large and heavy..and I just painted my nails.."
"There!  all done, and not a broken nail in sight - go Barbies!"
"Hmpf!  Patchwork, smatchwork, let's get some bling happenin' ladies!"
"What's this bargain shiny stuff? Let's use it!"
"Right you are - press that pedal to the metal! Let's go girls!"
"I'm on it honey! (don't say a word Mickey - you are such a darlin,  He he he!)"
"Gimme five!  Whoo hoo! You just have to have ruffles, they're so chic!"
"Not bad girls!"
"And so much better pink than blue!"
"Time for a well earned rest I think! My these cushions are comfy!"
"And don't forget stylish girlfriend!"

Thanks so much, Jill!  Now i feel like putting on a fancy dress and doing some sewing-bet those were words you never thought i'd utter!  Hey, if a Barbie can do it...?  The pic where she's "actually" sewing cracks me up!  If you'd like to see what other shenanigans those gals get into, please go visit Creating my way to Success!

Funny Stuff! My Barbies never used a sewing machine. They were busy taking their car (empty kleenex box) to the drive-in movies (floor model tv of yesteryear) and having a date with Ken!

Thanks for letting the Barbie and Bratz guest post here! (they're very excited!!)

I was SO excited to find one for cheap! But of course, as soon as I do something with my first cheese dome, I find an almost identical one for half of the price of the first! Hah!

That's hilarious. I'm so happy I found your blog. Do you ever run out of new ideas? Love it.

Too cute! I would never be patient enough to set all that up. Heck, I'm not even patient enough to make the simple pillows I've been putting off for two months now.

Well hello friend, Thanks for your sweet comment. Just a paint brush in hand, and I want to paint everything in sight. Have a great day, Hugs, Karie
Oh, and the Barbie post is cute.:)

uh....I can't decide whether to laugh or be scared. The weirdness is outshined by the fact that you put Barbie at the sewing machine and out by the pool. Really, really funny. Lisa~

Wow- I got a box full of Barbies in our playroom. And all they ever do is drive around in their pink corvette and try on clothes. I need to show them your blog:)

PS- thanks for stopping by my blog! In answer to your question, the painted wallpaper was not that bad. But I couldn't have done more than one wall. The completed project is very much worth the time though!
