- In this video i'd like to introduce you to my new japanese myphology inspired doll, and it's a Yuki onna! I named her Fuyumi, which means "the beauty of winter" in japanese.

How long did this doll take you ?
Emily: 90
Oh 90 minutes isn't bad
Emily: no, 90 episodes of one piece
And it's the embroidery only! 😂
Her outfit alone is a work of art. I adore the expression you gave her, she looks cunning but serene.
As someone who adores micro crafts myself (needlepoint, cross stich, crochet etc) I am simply blown away at how beautiful your work is. Thank you for sharing your creations with me.
Thank you too, for watching and supporting my work! 🥰
You described Yuki-onna perfectly, beautiful, but dangerous. She is absolutely breathtaking, enchanting, ethereal and magical! I adore her! ❤❤
The face, the bead work and the komono; just everything is amazing. watching the end of the komono get cut was WAY painful, so happy it worked out in the end!
She turned out to be such a perfect little lady! Her side glancing eyes are gorgeous, and add just a touch of mystery! Her kimono turned out absolutely phenomenal and I can't believe how perfect the embroidery turned out! Her teeny little tabi with her teeny little geta might be my favorite part though! I'm a huge sucker for mini things, and the tabi and geta just turned out so absolutely smol! Thank you for sharing Fuyumi with us!
I appreciate the kind words! I'm a huge fan of miniature art myself 😁
Everything about her is lovely, of course, but I just can't get enough of the face - she looks stunning! I can't imagine a better face for her.
The amount of work that went into this project is staggering! The doll is stunning, the kimonos are stunning, your attention to detail is humbling. I’m in awe of each and everyone of your work. 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
All the work you put into her definitely paid off. She’s gorgeous. My favourite part is the beading in the sleeve of her inner kimono. The way the fabric puckers reminds me of snowy footprints.
Absolutely precise! This is how I also see winter: it is purely white, calm and with black contrasts of wood and shades of the objects around. Super! 💗
OMG so excited. Gonna watch now ❤
She is stunning. The kimono is exquisite and it broke my heart when you cut the back off, but it was the right call. Thank you for this, I love it!
Thank you! 😊 I saw all of your comments from before as well, thank you so much for your support and kind words! I appreciate it a lot 🙏🏻
I binge watch ❤
I know I say this ever time for every video, but your sewing skills are just so frikkin' impressive. She looks so awesome--although I personally would've gone for those mirror-like jet-black eyes some Asians have, because I find they can be more disconcerting than blue. I love this series of onna.
There's no such thing as too many compliments 😂 thank you so much!
I made her eyes blue/gray, because it looks more like ice. But i like the idea with black eyes as well.
Watching your videos is always a delight as a costumer, the knowledge of how these garments are actually made at human scale is always evident in the way you design clothing for your dolls. It's hard to quantify satisfaction of the feeling, but in the end it really does feel like you are dressing this character as a person who needs to wear things, as opposed to dressing up a doll.
Thank you for the kind words!
You're a very perceptive person. I actually do treat them like my human clients, and even make sure that their outfits can be washed if needed 😂
One thing about me
I’m obsessed with mythos and folklore. One of my favorites is yuki onna and you did an amazing job creating her.
I'm glad you liked her 😍 she's one of my favorites too. Probably even the most favorite 😁
She is so lovely! It was sweet pleasure watching you create her. Look forward to seeing more of your work. Thank you for sharing.
And thank you for watching 💖
I rushed as soon as I got the notification
Thank you so much!!! 💖 I hope you enjoy the video 😊
her eyes are so capitivating i love how you give life to each doll you create
Yuki-Onna looks very beautiful to be scary.
I think it came out lovely! Very clever hiding the seam under the obi, I would have freaked out if I had to redo the skirt like that. And probably cried a little.
To be honest with you, this skirt is soaked with my tears 😂
I’m so happy the yuki onna’s finally here!
She's gorgeous. I love how her kimono looks. Her eyes and hair are very beautiful. 💙🩵👏👏👏
Exquisite. Exactly what she's supposed to represent!
She is so beautiful, sge for real reminds me chilly winter nights I love so much
Thank you so much, little midnight 🥰 I'm always happy to see you in the comments! 😁
Absolutely stunning! Love this doll a lot!
This doll turned out *stunning*.
Pun intended 😂
Kimono is soooo cool. The intricate detailing. Love it 💖💖💖.
Also, when we have to iron a fabric that can be burned quickly, we put a handkerchief on the cloth and iron on top of it. That'll help to protect sensitive clothes. Try it with a scrap piece. It doesn't need to be a handkerchief. U can use a similar material. 😉
Thanks for the tips! 🥰
The dedication you put into her outfit is so admirable!! Instead of just covering the purple paint with black paint you chose to not only cut it off, but to start all over again?!? Literally stunning-
It was a painful decision, but it had to be done 🥲 Thank you so much for appreciating my work 💖
@@DollAfterlife of course!! Keep up the beautiful work 😊
I really love the dolls you make, and also love how I learn tips and tricks from your videos. I watch a lot of doll customizing videos but feel like I learn the most useful tips from yours, like heat sealing raw (plastic) fabric edges with a lighter, and hiding seam allowances with lace. Those tips are so helpful!
I'm glad I could help 🥰
Oh my gosh I love her. I think sometimes a simpler face can actually be a lot harder but you absolutely nailed it.
I love this doll and the story!! I remember first hearing of it in the movie "Kwaidan"
I love watching you sew. Many of the artist I watch from eastern countries only hand sew, and its wonderful. The tiny perfect stitches are so pretty! Such a talent.
Thank you so much! 😍 I prefer hand sewing as well, I think for dolls it works the best 🥰
I feel you so hard when it comes to throwing out a ton work because something didn’t work out. I made my daughter a dress for ren faire in 32 hours straight. No sleep. I had to completely rip out the finished skirt at one point and it freaking killed me. But it was the right thing to do. Just like it was here. The kimono is beautiful. 💕
Omg, your story is so relatable! Your daughter is so lucky! 😁
yall are so much braver than me lol. if i spent so long on a project and then made a mistake that i hated, I'd die on the spot before preceding to chant "there's no mistakes, just happy little accidents" in my head while trying to figure out how to make it work 😂
@@ohlookabee8615 oh believe me you're not alone here! it's not that easy for me either 😅
I also procrastinate a lot because of the fear to make a mistake. 🥲
@@ohlookabee8615 brave or deeply unkind to ourselves. One or the other. 😅
I spend a lot of time chanting to myself: don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.
Beautiful work as always. I open mouth gasped when I saw your way of making a reroot tool. I never even thought of that!!
Thanks! 😁 Pre-made needles are a bit too thick, so I prefer making my own 😎
I LOVE your doll repaints and this series of Japanese yokai is so right up my alley! I dont do anything doll related so i live vicariously through your videos and really admire your craft and skill set! Kimonos are meant to be made of a thicker fabric than yukatas since they are meant to be warmer so I think the fact that the organza didn't work out was a blessing in disguise.
also, watching you cut off the skirt was so painful to witness, but i think it was the right decision as well. The pale purple flower petals look fine but the dark purple was indeed clashing with the rest of the design!
amazing work!
Your artistic talents are off the charts! There's painting, sculpting, woodworking, embroidery, beading, hair styling, and makeup, all for one beautiful and ethereal doll. I love to watch you work!
She turned out so beautiful! The expression is really unique, in a wonderful way
she's so pretty!!! I love how you used color, with almost everything being black and white/grayscale except for her eyes and lips, which really pop!!!
Wow, so amazing job!!!!❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
When you cut off a failed skirt, I felt all the pain of this very courage decision.❤️🩹
She is beautiful. Her outfit is stunning, such a work of art.
Holy ice crystals! When I clicked on this video I wasn’t expecting to find what I’ve found. What an absolutely amazing artist you are! Watching you work made me really happy just now. Simply amazing!
When you said that you are about to cut off the skirt I was shocked but I also understand. Whenever I work on a project, I will always create a little sacrificial peace on the side where I can try out my ideas to see what works, how materials behave and to get a tiny bit of practice, before committing on the actual model. Maybe that way you could have realized that adding colors isn‘t something you‘re going to like.
Yeh it would be a smart thing to do 😅 but what's done is done 😂 thank you so much for the kind comment ❤
Absolutely stunning ! Well done 💯🙌💛✨
What an exquisite work of art. Just glorious. I hope you never lose the attention to detail and passion you have with your art ❤
Thank you for the kind words 💖💖💖 I hope so too 😄
I just found you but she is glorious. The attention to detail is incredible and I hate to say it but when you went back to add the flowers I was so glad you did. She is perfect!
Thank you for the kind comment😊 nice to meet you! 😁
Omg the level of detail!!! I love this so much! Your patience is amazing
If you go with the alternate interpretation that the Yuki Onna is the ghost of a woman who died in the snow, the "two different kimonos and one is half off" has another, much sadder meaning. When someone succumbs to the effects of severe hypothermia (as in, so cold it will kill in hours if you're lucky), they can suddenly begin to mistake the extreme cold for intense heat and begin removing their clothing in a phenomenon known as "Paradoxical Undressing." If she was a ghost, then one of her kimonos hanging partially removed would mean she froze to death incredibly quickly, before she could even shed her outermost layers. How cold must she have been to freeze so suddenly?
It explains why she says "Snow is warm, ice is hot" in the movie!
You are very talented.
She is so beautiful.
I love her! The tale of the Yuki onna has a special place in my heart. it was my first Japanese ghost story told to me as a kid. You really did a great job capturing her image! I love every bit of this planned process. The detail in her kimono is extremely beautiful. Everything you did really captured the essence of the Yuki onna
Thank you so much! When I just started learning about Japanese folklore, yuki onna was my favorite yokai as well. And she is still one of my favorites 😁
Wauw this is so out of the would. The details is absolutely gorgeous and stunning.. ❤❤❤
This is one of the most exquisite Doll make over I have seen in a long time😍
Beautiful embroidery
She's gorgeous!!!
Gorgeous! I screamed when you had to cut the bottom of the first kimono attempt but the final looks amazing and worth the experience!! I'm surprised you haven't made the White Witch of Narnia, you could go ham with her design
Also, not sure where you are in One Piece... But there's an Arc you'll love outfit wise
Thank you for the kind comment!
I was thinking about the witch when I was editing this video as well 😂👀
Also, I'm looking forward to see that arc 🧐
I don't even know what to write here... you left me speechless! There's just something extra about your dolls - the story, the artwork... I don't know. She's just damn beautiful!
The beadwork is phenomenal! What a beautiful doll!!!
🤍🖤🤍🖤💎💎💃🤗She is stunning love it❤❤❤❤
Your nails changing says enough about how long this took. It's absolutely gorgeous and I'm so impressed!
Stunning, she's a work of art.❤
This is the most beautiful and mystical way to show the beauty of winter. Love this extraordinary artwork
please keep continue to bless us with your talent ❤love u and your work!!
🤗🤗🤗
I'm absolutely obsessed with this yokai/kaidan series!!!!! It's so goooood. I immediately pumped my fist in the air when I saw the notification 🤣
I'm glad you enjoy the series! 😊💫
She looks amazing
She is beautifull! When you had to cut her kimono I felt it. the pain. it was totaly worth it tho
I literally cried 😭
She is absollutely stunning! I'm nearly speechless! You put a lot of effort into this one & you should be VERY proud of your accomplishment. Outstanding work!
Oh I waited for the Yuki-onna!
Nice!!! She was requested a lot 😆
@@DollAfterlife And you absolutely slayed it! She is incredible!
The circular bit added to the back is like a opposite dart. ❤❤ It's beautifully made. Very happy to have found your channel
Thank you for the kind words! 😁 it is really like an opposite dart!
So beautiful
Love the Mighty Boosh clip 😊
Me too!
*Puts it in almost every video*
Have you ever seen Garth Marenghi's Darkplace?? Also a brilliant show
LOVE it! I will be working in my first doll repaint, I hope someday I can be as good and dedicated as you. I love embroidery and I've been doing dresses for my dolls taking some of your tips :D I will try embroidering something for them
You can do it! Good luck 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
I love your channel, it's definitley one of my favourites here! I'm always curiious of new doll, and next story 🤩
Oh wow! I'm honored! 😍 thank you 😊💖
@@DollAfterlife You're always very welcome 🥰
The kimono is absolute master piece! I love your doll❤
Absolutely stunning! Your art is breathtaking.
So beautiful. You’re hard work really pays off
Next pls: Harionago, Kitsune, kuchisake-onna, Kage-onna, Sunnakake-baba, Yamauba, Jogoromo, Zashiki Warashi playing with temari ball.
Some of these are on my list! 😁
Very pretty. Well done.😊
Yasss a boosh reference!!!
Beautiful
Super awesome💙💛
gorgeous!!!!!
She’s beautiful!
Beautiful work 😮 I love all the detail you put into your work and I like the small comedy scenes also..
Thank you very much! 💖
Hopefully you do one of kuchisake onna or teke teke
according to Google, one episode of One Piece is about 22~ to 24~ minutes long which means you spent like... what 30 hours? 35 hours on the embroidery alone? Thats dedicated as hell I applaud you
Thank you so much!! This doll was my most time consuming project, even though she doesn't look that complicated. 121,5 hours in total! The worst part was adding these flower petals one by one, they took forever. 😅
@@DollAfterlife holy shit that is so much time. Thats like... 315 episodes of one piece. Well worth it though. She looks beautiful
It’s so beautiful!
New sub! I instantly fell in love with your work, and I can't wait to watch more of your videos!! Keep up the amazing work ❤❤
Thank you so much!!! And welcome to the team hehe 🥰
I keep telling myself, no more subscriptions! Yet here I am, hitting subscribe. 😂. Your channel is so charming. The folklore that is literally "woven" into the creation process of your lovely dolls is absolutely captivating.
(And thank you for including your "fails" and how you problem solve through the challenges. Inspiration sometimes has dark roots)
Peace and love from La Paz, Mexico.❤
Thank you so much for subscribing! 😍
I thought if show people my struggles, it might help them to fight the fear of mistake and motivate them to try new things as well. 😊
That's exactly so! I'm just catching the "bug". My dolls were very primitive and I liked that...but when I see the possibilities it is both overwhelming and inspiring. But it's your story-telling that is so engaging and sets you apart.
❤
I hope there will be a beautiful, magical male doll in your future videos. I'm sure there are many incredible tales of male spirits in Japanese mythology. 🙏
@@kated6780 yes, i just bought a few male dolls for repaints! 😁 I wanted to make karasu-tengu 🧐
Amazing work! So beautiful 😊
Has anyone thought of doing something like Lavendertowne drawing characters based on there book descriptions but I thought someone should do that but with dolls.What I mean is making a doll based on book descriptions like for example like Lavendertowne drawing Coraline characters based on book descriptions as in what they physically look like.Can you make creepypasta character as a doll?
I like the idea with book characters! Do you have anyone specific in mind?
@@DollAfterlife Sherlock Holmes. And can other people leave suggestions?
Muito linda amei muito ❤❤❤❤
Mizore vs. Cleo vs. Abbey vs. Elsa vs. Snow Queen vs. Jadis
Jiji siempre puntual a la notificación.
Thank you! 😊🥰
you can iron an organza by iron it on the uspide down and withe a wet tissu on it, it work very well
I won't be able to apply enough pressure and temperature to iron the seams flat though. In miniature sewing they have to be exceptionally neat. 🤌🏻
Yes, it's true that I never do it for doll scale actualy, I just do it in the weding store where I work, if you can silk one are more easyer to iron I mean they take the shap very queekly and thos one are very flat but it's more expansive and they are mat
She looks beautiful, have you ever tried making Chochin Obake? ( a yokai lantern) Have a great weekend.
Hi! I was thinking about including small yokai into bigger projects. Like make a doll who's holding a possessed lantern, for example
@@DollAfterlife Maybe another Yokai or a human either which ever, who has a Chochin Obake, that would look amazing
omg wow
Ehy Dudy, I have an advice for you... the youtube channel is yours so you decide what to do, but there are 2 ideas that came to me for your "doll repaints". Do you like Jorogumo (spider ladyes) or Rokurokubi (long necked women)? 😮
Hi! I like them both, but struggle with the design 😅 If I decide to make any of them, it won't happen soon.
Oh, don't worry, there is time for everything😊
AMAZINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!! I LOVE ITTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!😊😊😊😊❤😊❤❤❤😊❤😊❤❤❤😊❤😊 Can you make Daki from Demon Slayer?
Thank you!! 💖
I like Daki, but I can't promise anything.
@@DollAfterlifeOh, don't worry! 😅😊
Cutting first skirt was the best decision ever. Flowers as you said looked terrible. You should be proud of admitting the error and fixing it (even if it costs a lot A LOT of work). Mature decision if you ask me
Thank you for your honesty ❤
pls the kuchisake onna
Once you get to that point in One Piece and meet her, pleeaaaaaase make Nico Robin!
I will see!! 🧐
Aahhh interesting, that is one of my sleep-paralysis-demons.
Not to be rude or anything, it really is. She shifts around the room in high speed and hisses in my face.
Ufff I know that feeling! 😖
Well luckily, she wasn't really that bad. She sortof shifted through the room and hissed the entire time, screamed in my face or climbed the ceiling.
In hindsight, she was one of the friendlier ones. I tried to keep the conversation light and told her (in my head, since you can't speak during sleepparalysis) that she should be careful and not fall down from the ceiling. And I asked her how many coffees she'd had, when she was quickly shooting from side to side in the room.
Usually that lightens the mood a bit. I personally like clowns a lot, but my (one of my) other demons is/was a clown and he's not so nice. But I managed to calm him down by talking (in my head) about his family (genuienly asked him if they ride a clowncar together) and whether he liked tea. Once I started summing up all the tea's I knew, he left. Usually overstimulating your brain that way, works.)
@@DollAfterlife
Hey! Since you have done multiple Japanese female yokai, would you e interested in Kuchi-sake onna, too? Just curious. Not demanding anything, of course. Anyway I like your videos a lot and it's fun to watch them
Hello!!! I'm always open for suggestions, so don't hesitate to let me know if you have anything in mind!
Considering a kuchi-sake onna, yes I plan to make her this year. I already have a concept in mind, it's a bit blurry but I'll definitely make her, either in April or in August! Still sorting my content plan 🙆🏻♀️ also thank you for the kind comment 🥰
That's awesome" Thank you @@DollAfterlife
@@kaku_zato always welcome 🤗🤗🤗
