Thank you I used a tiny dremel drill bit (minus the drill), you put them against the dolls ear then keep turning them until they go all the way through - easy peasy! You do have to be careful about the angle you use though, cuz I did them too far in the first time round & the metal loops wouldn't open far enough! So you have to make sure the 2 holes are the right width apart to fit the ring through...if that makes sense??

Oh my god I'm usually such a "stock" lover but you really made me feel like I'm missing out on customs I have almost all the tools I need I just have to find the time now! This post is really giving me a push to start, especially since I think you're new to Pullips like me and yet look at you how fast you started customizing and how far along you've come already I should take the plunge too!
ah I'm so glad I inspired you! I am new to Pullips, yes. I got Erin in.....May or June I think?? I always planned to customise her into a mini-me (I'm pretty fearless when it comes to trying things like that, so I didn't actually worry that it was my first attempt & I might muck it up - oops! lol), & I then planned to get another girl to turn into Meg (I only had a rough idea of long dark plaits, green eyes & freckles, but I didn't know what style I wanted for her yet). The next few characters I have in mind are based on stock dolls though, on their hair & face-up rather than their stock clothes. although I'd love to get Shan-ria & Lunatic queen & keep them completely stock...... anyhoo, I'm rambling! Looking forward to seeing how you get on with customising!
