I really like the idea to turn different insects into dolls

[@lalareeves1941]

That does sound very interesting ❤️

[@vanilla9683]

And different time periods, like monarch butterfly Victorian lady lol

[@lalareeves1941]

@@vanilla9683 or just bugs in general would be beautiful. Like different kinds of butterflies as in colors. Or even like a stick bug or something crazy.

[@vanilla9683]

I only mention the time periods because this video is a 60's church wife

[@josiemorris615]

I recommend Catmelon Studio for this! Especially her bee and wasp dolls

[@sylviajade]

I could not be more THRILLED!! 😍😍🤯You translated the design so incredibly beautifully, and your commitment to making all the details touched my heart! The individual flowers modified to look like orchids were genius and made such a stunning result! You even adjusted the angle of the sunglasses! I think the job you did coloring the skin is the gem of the entire project (which is saying a lot because everything is so well executed!!) And of course the aspic! It's just adorable, and you even followed the recipe!! I literally squealed in delight when hearing you read out the little book excerpt in your wonderful accent! It was just unreal to see you make something I thought up after watching your videos for years! She just looks so glamorous! She's ready to serve up her husband at the church luncheon and she's so fabulous no one will even question that finger! Also, you mom did a fantastic job as always! She matched the details of the dress I drew so perfectly! I especially love how she did that tricky high v neckline and the little gathered sleeves! Just amazing! My mom and I sat down with donuts to watch the video together, and she was especially impressed with the dress because she sews too. That level of detail on such a small scale is truely art! She also told me I made you work too hard!😅😂 I’m glad you enjoyed the process and got to try new materials that will be useful to you in the future! I thought of the aspic because I know you use resin, but I hadn’t considered how odd its shape was. I remember you saying that you enjoy picking out the faces too, and the Cleo you picked had just the perfect expression and cheekbones! I will treasure and display this amazing artwork forever!

[@oliviam9229]

This was a truly inspired and beautiful design. Congratulations!

[@kimmiekim5824]

What an unusual and fantastic design Sylvia! So perfectly detailed and well thought out. Poppen, amazing execution as always. The dress fabric and aspic blew me away. The attention you took to include all of the details makes this a true work of art. I have a design I was too shy to submit. I think next time I might send it in because you both have inspired me! Well done to you both.

[@sylviajade]

@@oliviam9229 🥰Thanks! I really appreciate you taking the time to say so!

[@sylviajade]

@@kimmiekim5824 You totally should! I did not expect to win either so you never know until you try!

[@ByHerHand]

Your design was so intricate and unusual- and she translated it beautifully. A perfect collaboration 🪲👱🏼‍♀️

[@kevinrasch7815]

Poppen, I am absolutely blown away by this video! I might be Sylvia's biggest fan because.... well... umm... err... I am her father... As such, I had the privilege of seeing her creative process as she prepared her submission for the contest and shared in her joy when it was announced that she was a winner. I must say that watching you create a doll based on her design was absolutely fascinating and your attention to detail is both amazing and fun. Thank you so much for what you and your mother have done to bring Sylvia's design to life. Bravo to you both!

[@BbGun-lw5vi]

You should be incredibly proud of your daughter. Her design was by far the best in the submissions. She’s truly creative and clever.

[@morgonerlenstar]

Watching this I thought that she would be a great character in a “Man in Black “ movie. Great result. She is stunning. You pay so much attention to detail. You and your mum are great artists

[@AnnaPhelps32]

I love her sunglasses, Jell-O mold, hat, dress - everything! I love the collaboration dolls. So original and beautiful! I am a teacher in public schools. I would love to see you do a teacher doll that is disheveled, pale face, under eye circles, vacant expression, unironed clothes, I think that would be funny and original. 😅🤣

[@YuniX2]

I second the motion and request that the teacher doll comes with an accessory of a lunch with a single bite taken out of it. We don't really get to eat on the job, in spite of our supposed lunch break. More like a 15 minute snack, surrounded by 5-10 minutes of corralling very young children to and from lunch on either side.

[@annebeach6630]

I teach at private school and it's the same for us 😭 no breaks. I once forgot to put concealer under my eyes and one of my kinders asked if I was dead 🤣

[@nohandlethanx]

That's an awesome idea. Don't forget the overstuffed backpack/purse and a big heart 😁

[@95Wollhund]

I absolutely love the teacher idea! That would be so great to see!

[@ushere5791]

lol, yes!!

[@rjs2035]

So cool!! She looks like she jumped straight out of a 50s/60s comic book! She also gives me Juno Birch vibes with the other-worldly housewife look. Your art it one of a kind and so inspiring!! 💕

[@laurelwilkinson2594]

I never thought to look for exotic beauty in a praying mantis's face before. But bumble bees have really cute, furry, bright-eyed little faces. Very pretty, ingenious work. Thank you!

[@sylviajade]

I agree! My other draft was actually a 1920's flapper bee girl. I'd love to see Poppen's take on a bee!

[@nicklebuh]

It's really giving Juno Birch, probably because of the 60's housewife influence. You never cease to amaze with your attention to detail! ❤ Side-note: I think a Juno Birch doll would be absolutely stunning!

[@MissMiyakosKitty]

YES that's happening! At least I'd love it to happen :D

[@georgygirl64uk]

Yes!!!! I vote for a Juno Birch doll, too! 🥰

[@sylviajade]

I agree! The uncanny hyperfem vibes of the design are very Juno! The sixties are just the perfect time to invade a planet and/or eat your husband! I might have been influenced subconsciously by Juno because I am a big fan. I was originally thinking about the lady from Mars Attacks, but I think she also inspired the lovely Miss Birch. I would just DIE if Juno saw this!

[@rebeccat.6134]

Hextian made a Juno Birch doll already, you can check it out

[@nicklebuh]

@@sylviajade Your concept for this doll is so creative and extremely detailed! It's obvious why it was chosen to be one of the winners. ❤

[@nottheoneforyou]

I just love when your mom helps make outfits for your creations.

[@OfficialSparklyPig]

I AM IN LOVE with this doll! The design, the execution, the idea, the humor - I simply adore it!!! Perhaps the cookbook could include recipes for Leg Of Larry, Pat Roast, Mike & Cheese, Julian Fries, Bar-Ben-Que, Pete-za, Fred-uccine Al-Fredo, Corn On The Bob, Pota-Joe Salad, Sam-burgers, Graham Crackers, Tur-Kieth & Stuffing, Creamed Aspara-Gus...

[@RykerJones28]

Dunno why but corn on the bob made me choke 😂

[@eunicee999]

Omg these names are just sooooooo goooood!!! I love all of them hahaha ✨🖤

[@christinevr7698]

Genius!!! love the other recipe names!

[@BbGun-lw5vi]

🤣

[@cafialena]

What a creative design, and your execution was excellent! She totally looks like a man eater and the color scheme is fantastic. Everything you do is such great work and all the components are awesome but as usual I am in awe with the shading and detail on the faceup, especially with such bright and tricky colors!

[@ljay7111]

Shout out to MOM! She is MVP of doll clothes making! Exquisite and very detailed oriented for such a scale! Talented woman you both are! 🤗

[@torquess454]

Your mom has such young hands I keep thinking “sister” not “mom” incredible repaint as usual, cheers to the winner for the awesome artwork! I’ve lost all my decorations to the bottom of my resin projects before, now I do them in stages lol

[@ninadavis5517]

I really love the insect/human concept as well as the actual doll and accessories. I would love one. I could see a lady bug, grasshopper or spider ladies like this.

[@briannawalker4793]

Ahh this is one of your most creative dolls yet!! The thoughtfulness in all the little details - just blown away. More of these beautiful-hilarious-body horror dolls, please!

[@PirateOwl]

Those sunglasses are to DIE for!! The metallic green really makes the glasses and shoes pop, and the aspic is just delightful. Well done! And very good thinking for creating the "orchids" for her hair. Thanks for sharing!

[@nicolegreene8631]

You are like a fairy godmother. Taking dreams and turing them into reality. Another masterpiece

[@isabellawoods4127]

Some inspiration for future Ideas! A 1920s Flapper Ant or Spider, A 1970s Ladybug or Cicada, and a 90s grunge Butterfly/Moth. I love your dolls and you are so Talented!!!

[@DrSass-gd1bl]

This has honestly got to be one of, if not my top favorite, dolls that you've made. Blown away by the design and craftsmanship here. Really hope you and your Mom collab with Silvia again, soon! This is gorgeous!!

[@afroborilafemme]

I loved this design! I couldn’t wait for you to translate it into your style.

[@sandiemable]

OMG! I would never have imagined that a Praying Mantis could be a beautiful doll. But, having found this channel, IT IS POSSIBLE! There isn't anything that the Poppen Atelier can't do. Toss an idea at her, and she will make it happen. She is a doll painting Goddess. xoxo's Sandie🤗😍

[@ushere5791]

she is so extra! i love her! i hope sylvia receives her quickly and safely and loves her as much as we all do!

[@charlie570]

the whole character concept is incredibly clever and it looks amazing in doll form

[@NinnyLeaves]

The Mantis housewife is brilliant!!

[@evelynmatheson918]

This doll was SO CUTE. The dress was amazing. Your mom did a perfect job, as always. The gelatin thing was so funny. I loved it. And her hair!!! The hair was the best part for me. Gorgeous. This doll was such a treat.

[@sophieboo37]

As a mantis keeper, I do wish those legs were more raptorial like. As a custom doll lover, this was gorgeous poppen! Shame the face gets covered by the glasses, it’s so beautiful.

[@jpendowski7503]

Your collaboration dolls are always a treat, this one takes the prize. In the future could you consider your younger viewers and do a fantasy from an under 15 person. The hand drawings in the winner collage had some fabulous creativity. Your mom’s dress and your accessory details shine in this winning doll. 💜

[@emzykate]

I love her fierce expression! I'd love to see more dolls with that sort of fierce but aloof look :)

[@madonnadove]

Agreed, more than just pretty faces. I'd like to see fierceness in female images.

[@eve-lynp.447]

The color shading in her face is exquisite!

[@dwhatsit1]

I don't know how I missed this doll! She's unique, beautiful and creative. I think she's my absolute favorite. I can't help it! I love orchid mantids and this doll has that retro 50s vibe style going... you can't beat that combination! Your mother really went the whole nine yards in painting the dress fabric. I absolutely LOVE this doll! 🎉❤

[@emilyh4339]

Oh My Life!!! Gorgeous....everything! Stunning! The colours, her hair, her dress and oh my her face 😍. The talent you and your mum process is beyond words xXx

[@nikolasharos7803]

she turned out brilliantly, and I'm glad I learned what an aspic was as well

[@kitsune_kitson2112]

Thank you, I had no idea what the word meant!

[@alannaleddy7968]

The tiny orchid hair ornaments are so pretty!!! So amazingly detailed, I love it

[@CollaborativeDog]

I love this so much! You do pretty dolls perfectly, but I get such a kick when you let your sly dark humor shine. Those art pieces are truly unique!

[@marytyus1]

Turned out so cute. Sylvia is so lucky

[@edc9864]

Wow Sylvia! The amount of detail you put into this doll is fantastic. The cookbook was excellent and Poppen, the doll is beautiful and your interpretation of the details was great! The dress, as always, was beautiful! Amazing collab to all three of you ladies!

[@noradennis4361]

Wow!!! Very unique looking doll. I'm sure Sylvia will love it.

[@patriciahendricks4546]

You did a fantastic job making the doll to match such a creative piece of artwork. Congratulations to both of you for your creative and beautiful pieces of true art. Thank you both for sharing your talents with all us.

Oh she is extraordinary! Kudos to the designer, the tailor, and of course congratulations to you dear one. She is a genius work of doll making.

[@pants6416]

I love how original and creepy-cute this doll design is! It reminds me of some of the background character designs on Beetlejuice, and also Mars Attacks. I think I want a movie featuring 60's mantis housewives now! 😍

[@charlottemailhe8238]

I love this face up! So creative and different for you! You can nail whatever we throw at you!

[@judithcatlett8518]

It came out really good. Congrats to Sylvia.

Whoever designed this doll should be giving ideas to doll designers. It’s so incredibly creative and detailed! And you and your mom did it justice!

[@shushia1658]

This was such an awesome collaboration between three really talented artists. I love when you and your mother collaborate. And Sylvia's design was so original and interesting.

[@debbiefinlayson2294]

In the drawing she looks very masculine. You made her beautiful without losing the way she was drawn. Kudos you and Sylvia on a fantastic collaboration

[@alishahird897]

She looks cool, very science fiction ❤ I love her

[@WulfyFang3]

Before the customization even starts, I just have to say that I really love your blouse! It's so pretty! 😍

[@lis.anwell638]

Completely weird and awesome! Great job to all artists!

[@jillianogrady4621]

What an awesome competition idea! I really enjoyed both the mushroom doll and this beautiful bug/housewife hybrid. I would love to see more creative viewer ideas brought to life.

[@missvidabom]

This is the most amazing doll! She is my absolute favorite! The design is so incredible!!

[@alicefriedmeyervacek3332]

I like this face up a lot. All of your dolls have beautiful faces, but they also often end up looking very similar to each other. I love that this one is different - and you put a lot of extra work into the details 🌸

[@damarisarts9489]

You, your Mom, and Silvia are a great creative team! Beautiful doll!

[@sowhat3609]

OMG ! this doll is tremendously Awesome 🤩✨✨✨💗💗💗💗 I love it so much and I even can say that she's my favorite coming from your magical Atelier ✨✨✨ The face up is incredible ✨ and a big Congrats to your mother who has done this amazing dress ! it sticks so well to the project 💚💜🌸🍋🥒 Thank you very much for all your videos anyway because added to your masterpieces of art, you bring so much joy and beautiful human values 💗

[@sarahgoddard1213]

I love watching these videos. Such an inspirational example of making, in all it's forms. So many techniques and materials all in one. Feast for the eyes and the brain.

[@sailordora]

So pretty! I'd love to see a Barbie version of this design too. I love your work, mrs. Maryna 💗

[@JayofallTrades]

I think a silkstone barbie base would have been perfect for this doll. She looks like a drag queen or the lady from the hunger games. The artist really did a good job on the details. I would be terrified of this preying mantis cuz they're known to eat the heads of thier partners after mating. The doll is very beautiful as always i love your work Poppen. The colors are so bright and vibrant just like the reference.

[@radiantlyshana]

I will never get tired of Poppens face ups!! They are always so magical to watch!!

[@vernieplummer5148]

[@eshbena]

Every time I think I'm crazy for making tiny doll clothes, or building tiny rooms, or whatever, I watch your videos and realize that there is someone even crazier than I am. LOL That aspic, the shoes, the gloves, the glasses, all of it! So amazing. Your mother is a saint and an incredible seamstress. It's all gorgeous and insane and I love it.

[@ashleigh833100]

Yeeessss glad you did this one loved the drawing

[@damealeta3541]

This was so fun! I love the color green so that was a plus. All of the elements that had to come together must have been daunting. As usual your mom pulled off another great costume! Thanks for the fun and delightful content!

[@HeyItsMeChelseyOnYouTube]

I dunno why but those shiny green shoes are one of my favourite of your creations. The creativity you opened up when you started working with warbler was so amazing to see. You always kill it and this time was no exception. Bravo to you and your mom!

[@pyro-millie5533]

[@jackiea3652]

I've been following you a few years and this is my favorite doll so far. I love the way you combined so many techniques (thermoplastic, resin, paints, pastels, yarn, etc) and the design of it all comes together beautifully!!

[@Amelia_Rose_333]

Girrrrrrrlllllll!!! The amount of work you put into these dolls is insane!! I’m sure there are times where you think, “can I just be done already?” I guessed 52 flowers for her hair… but you had to make even more! 😱 This came out amazing as always! I am always blown away by how talented you are! Thank you for sharing your gift with all of us! 😍

[@leegee1839]

I always enjoy the first acetone wipe where she pulls it back and it's the whole face on the swab 🤣

[@fulanadetal1568]

How exciting for the winners to see their creations come to life in doll form!!! You interpreted the drawings very well, both of them are amazing but this one stole my heart. I absolutely love your (and your mother's) work, very skilled indeed :D

I was so waiting for this repaint, and thank you for delivering over and beyond. Love everything! If to be nitpicky, I wish her gloves were done in gradient from magenta to purple vs flat purple (although that's how the artwork is). Thank you for this eye candy and thanks to Sylvia for amazing imagination!

[@KateandBree]

I love how you used individual hydrangea petals to make miniature phalaenopsis orchids (moth orchids.) So creative and original.
