Hey Barbie fam! I apologize that I'm a little late for our May Poll for DOTM. Let's get voting!

Since I'm posting this a little late, I'm only running the poll for three days and will announce the theme this Wednesday, 5/6. Please comment with your vote for one of the options below.

If you have any suggestions for future themes, please leave those in the comments. Thank you!

  1. Floral Favorites: April showers bring May flowers. Let's embrace spring fashion and showcase your favorite floral prints!

  2. DIY Doll: Many of our users here are very creative, customizing their own dolls and making clothing, accessories, and even detailed dioramas. This theme gives us a chance to play show and tell with all of our DIY designs.

  3. Barbie pets: for this theme, we would post photos of our dolls and their little friends! Whether Barbie has a cat or dog, lizard or fish, let's share her creature companions.

Base: Sally Hansen Hard As Nails Strengthener

Base color: Salley Hansen Insta-dry In A Blush #239

Accent colors: Essie Crunch Crunch #1856, Sally Hansen Insta-dry On The Download #492 and Peachy Breeze #333

Top coat: Sally Hansen Insta-dry (red bottle)

While most of the colors photographed well, I had a hard time getting the red look right. It's not quite as bright/dark as in the picture and has more of pink hue to it. It's still a great color, though!

I'm still new to polish, and my right hand is just the light pink base color because I cannot paint very steadily with my left hand yet. 😅

My husband and I customized this Android Barbie for our daughter. Her body is modified from this 3D printed model. My husband redid the belt piece to have the Barbie "B" on it, and he also redesigned the neck peg to fit a Barbie head. I cut her hair into a bob before putting it on the 3D printed body. He also printed her with an RFID tag in her butt so when she sits on my daughter's Tonie box, she plays the soundtrack from the Barbie Movie. 😅

Edit: thanks for the award you sweeties. 🥰

Edit 2: My husband added his modified pieces to Printables with instructions here.
