When I saw the thumbnail I thought this was a collab because that face seems so far from your "usual" style. Meaning, you absolutely nailed the new style you were going for! So multi-talented!

[KaypeaCreations]

That face up is GORGEOUS. definitely goals haha. I refuse to leave my pajamas until it’s warm again 😆 I don’t handle cold very well 🥶

[PantslessPajamas]

Pajamas party trio you say? I am READY for it

[etellan]

Sleepy bb! Love this custom so much. the colours, the details, everything is so dreamy and calming. fantastic work as always!

[jakezula]

you definitely captured that "dreamy/realistic" style you were going for with the face, she looks right at home with those kinds of dolls :)

[RedHatClub]

Hope you had a wonderful break Katherine, I'm loving her face up it's really unique and pretty for a sleepy head lol and her having friends would be so cute ^^.

[Bellaevvy]

She’s gorgeous and looks so much different than anything you’ve done before!!! She’s so soft and looks like a princess! Amazing job!

[kimi_ro]

omg the face is so adorable, I loved it so much and the outfit as well. The only thing I personally didn't like were the pigtails, maybe it's just a bit plain for my tastes but other than that, amazing doll! I totally would love to see more dollies made in this style in the future, cute ugh <333

[Arilouhel]

I think this is my favourite face-up you’ve ever done. Personally I didn’t like the way the pigtails stuck out but aside from that I am OBSESSED. The colours, the decorations on the hair and face, reminds me so much of a pastel, wispy fairy. so stunning xx

[squishyprincess]

I would love to see a sleepy time trio! She’s adorable and just gives off nostalgia and happy vibes!

[levie]

This video feels so nostalgic, idk. Maybe because of the classic Dollightful palette? It feels like it's been so long since you've done this kind of custom. Takes me back to that time when I first stumbled upon your video and I fell into a bunny hole that introduced me to the Doll Repaint community. I've never been more thankful to YouTube for their recommendation. In retrospect, I realized I somehow grew up with you by watching your videos! ❤️

[oliquin-roo]

The face up is so different from your usual style, it's truly beautiful. She has a hauntingly wistful angelic look. This is probably your best face up to date which is accentuated by the simplicity of her overall design. No complicated body modification with a ton of popsicle sticks and bolts allowing your artistic talents to shine bright. Without a doubt, the Dollightful Mona Lisa. The only feedback would be to boil the pigtails so instead of stick out they lay flatter in a more natural way.

This doll has a beautiful face, and I love the pajama theme! You should totally make a slumber party trio with the Draculaura and Clawdeen dolls! It reminds me of the Monster High Dead Tired line, which holds a very special place in my heart, because they were the first Monster High dolls I ever got at age 7. This doll is amazingly cute, great job!

Edit: Also, what doll stands do you use? I've lost most of my original Monster High stands, but I want to display my collection. Your stands seem to work really well.

[daandiid]

I just can't get over her hair, everything else is stunning, but the way her hair is styles is making her face look so square-

[millie-mayprice]

this is SUCH a pretty face up! don't get me wrong, I love the massive projects that you do, but there's something really charming about watching you do a nice, simple project and pick clothes from your back catalogue, perfect for this lazy, rainy sunday morning!

[kathrynfrapolly]

This was a great way to start the morning and she is adorable

[soren]

I feel sleepy just looking at her! The expression, the clothes! Simply magnificent... Truly amazing!

[jessarisetty]

Ugh, you’ve outdone yourself again! Even with such a “simple” doll, she’s so elegant, adorable, and quintessentially Dollightful! I love the tiny, beautiful details on her face, and how masterfully you put her outfit together!

[vampire]

As soon as she mentioned what type of doll look she was going for I got so excited. I love sleepy dolls and I also love that semi realistic soft look. She absolutely nailed the look and vibe of this doll, plus that mint and pink combo?! Perfection

[JackedThor-so]

I LOVE the faceup on this doll! The way you drew it strongly resembles Etellan's dolls - I actually thought it was a collaboration at first; her doing the face and you doing the clothes. I love how you can do both a cutesy cartoony style of face as well as a more grounded and soft face as well. Also, it's nice to see artists work with the cheaper dolls. As someone who purchased their doll fodder off eBay you get some cheapos mixed in with the good stuff. It's always rewarding to make something good with them, like you've spited the manufacturers. Amazing work as always! ❤️
