Custom Frozen Elsa Coronation 01

10.7.13.

 

So I normally only use my Flickr so that I may post my photos on forums, but since this seems to be getting some attention on here, I figured I should add a description...

 

By now most people know that Disney is in fact coming out with Elsa and Anna dolls in their coronation outfits, but when I started this I did not know that. All I knew was that I had to have a version of this dress somehow.

 

I made the decision early on NOT to repaint or reroot my Disney Store Elsa...so I thought it would be a quick project. It ended up not being so quick once I made the decision to hand embroider the designs on her dress. The embroidery alone took a week (note that I do work full-time, so this was done during any spare time I had), and then another week was spent hand sewing everything together. Yes, I know how to use a sewing machine, but I prefer to hand sew, especially when working on small projects. ;) I also made the decision to make the skirt of her dress fuller than it is in the movie simply because I like big dresses and the Disney Store almost never makes them big enough. XD She is lacking gloves right now...but since I already have fabric for them, I may add them in the future.

 

I am also contemplating doing an Anna version... ;)
