D.I.Y. Artist Creates Lady Gaga Barbies That’ll Leave You Speechless
Beijing “doll player” and strong advocate of D.I.Y., Veik, has the most amazing Flickr stream with images of his Lady Gaga Barbie Dolls! He says he doesn’t intend to sell the dolls; he just really wants to encourage others to get crafty. “Crafty” isn’t even an appropriate word for what he is doing — this is fine art (I hate these labels, BTW and dislike that D.I.Y. is often dismissed as kitsch, etc. but that is a discussion for another day…). He has the evolution of the Gaga-coif down to a science and the Alexander McQueen re-creations’ details are insane, especially considering working on such a tiny scale. I, for one, feel very inspired – I’ve recently added some new dolls to my collection, maybe they need a few Gaga-esque accessories! 😉

Press Play: Video Treasures
I have made some really great discoveries on YouTube today! First, Lady Gaga in a fashion short! Got to say I love the asymmetrical bangs she is rocking in this and the editing is pretty great as well.

Secondly, may I introduce you to the fabulous Kandee Johnson! I only recently found out about Kandee’s amazing makeup tutorials and, I must say, I am in love! She is hilarious, beautiful, and beyond talented! Here are a few of my favorites.
It is UNCANNY how much this lady can make herself look like Johnny Depp as… Edward Scissorhands!
As the Iconic Barbie…
… and Michael Jackson!
This is just a sampling of Kandee’s amazing work! Check out her blog, Kandee The Makeup Artist and her YouTube Channel!
