Neo Blythe doll collectors and adult doll enthusiasts—today we’re unboxing and reviewing Adachi Yumi Blythe Amour, the CWC-exclusive Blythe created in collaboration with longtime Blythe collector and Japanese actress Yumi Adachi.
This release immediately caught my attention because Yumi isn’t simply a celebrity whose name was attached to a doll—she has collected Blythe for years, shared the hobby with her daughter, and even played a Blythe-obsessed doll dressmaker in the Japanese series Princess Jellyfish.
So I wanted to know: can we actually see a collector’s eye in the finished doll?
In this video we’ll take a close look at Adachi Yumi Blythe Amour from her unusual dark blue hair and four special eye colors—including those fabulous holographic eyes—to her incredibly detailed stock. We’ll look at the sheer top, denim jumpsuit with beaded straps and working zipper, oversized leopard-trimmed coat, tapestry-style beret, knitted cape, sequined bag, earrings, shoes and all of those tiny details that make a Blythe release feel special.
And because Yumi is an actress, I couldn’t just unbox her on an empty table. She gets her own little Tokyo dressing room for her debut on the channel.
If you collect Blythe dolls, Neo Blythe, vintage or modern fashion dolls, Barbie, Ellowyne Wilde, Integrity Toys—or you’re simply an adult doll collector who still loves playing, creating and making things for your dolls—you are in the right place.
Please give the video a like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell and choose ALL so YouTube has at least a fighting chance of actually showing you my next doll video. 😂
Thanks so much for watching!

![#12DaysOfChristmasBarbie Alternating Advent | Mid-Century Holiday Barbie DIY (Drawer 3)
Welcome, doll collectors! Today we continue our 12 Days of Christmas Barbie Alternating Advent — a cozy, mid-century holiday collaboration with the wonderful March Payne of March Payne’s Midlife Dolly Crisis. We’re each opening a different version of the 12 Days of Christmas Barbie advent calendar every other day: March opens the 2023 set, I open the 2024 set, and together we’re building a tiny holiday world one drawer at a time.
In today’s episode, I open Drawer 3 of the 2024 12 Days of Christmas Barbie Advent Calendar. No spoilers here — you’ll discover the surprise right along with me. After the reveal, I show you how I create my own mid-century-inspired miniature interpretation using simple materials, calm crafting, and a little 1960s hostess charm.
You’ll see:
• close-ups of the Drawer 3 advent surprise
• my handmade miniature interpretation inspired by the drawer
• color mixing and tiny paint techniques
• mid-century detailing
• a printable option if you prefer paper over clay
• my holiday diorama slowly coming to life
✨ Printable for Today’s Craft
If you’d like to create your own [NO SPOILERS] without using clay, I made a simple printable you can print, cut, glue, and use instantly. It’s sized for 1:6 scale and fits perfectly into any mid-century holiday scene. Download the Drawer 3 Printable here:

🎄 Mid-Century Holiday Crafts Supply List
Gather what you love. Borrow what you have. Create your own Atomic-Age magic.
1. Your Mid-Century Muse
Choose a Barbie (or any fashion doll) to be your holiday inspiration. Dress her in something seasonal — store-bought, borrowed, or handmade.
For the handmade route, you’ll want:
A sparkly sock or stretch fabric in your favorite festive shade
Needle, thread, and small scissors
A few straight pins
A simple beading kit: 4mm and 6mm beads in gold and silver tones
Jewelry wire or strong thread
Headpins or eyepins for earrings
Small jewelry pliers
Gold shoes or heels (borrowed from another doll?)
Shop your own collection — older Barbies and playsets often hide tiny treasures.
2. Backdrop + Set Construction
Cardboard, paperboard, or foam board
Cardstock or mid-century Christmas wrapping paper
Access to a printer
A poster print if you’d like a polished backdrop
Scissors or a craft knife
Glue stick, tacky glue, or double-sided tape
Mid-century style is about intention, not perfection — simple materials shine.
3. Air-Dry Clay Projects
Air-dry clay
Clay tools (or household substitutes like a toothpick and a butter knife)
Gold hairpin legs (mini craft legs, jewelry wire, or trimmed metal findings)
Fine-grit sandpaper
Craft paints in Tiffany blue, warm white, gold, and retro tones
A couple of paintbrushes
Air-dry clay takes about 48 hours to cure — plan ahead.
4. Miniature Holiday Details
A mini Christmas tree
Tiny wrapped presents
Felt or fleece for “carpeting”
Ribbon scraps
Bottlebrush trees (optional)
Small beads or charms for décor
Use what you already have; mid-century charm thrives on reinvention.
5. Basic Crafting Tools
Scissors
Ruler or measuring tape
Cutting mat or safe surface
Parchment paper
Hot glue gun (optional)
Mod Podge or matte sealer (optional)
6. Things You Can Borrow or Repurpose
Older Barbie playsets (tiny plates, cups, décor)
1:6 or 1:4 scale furniture
Gold accessories from other dolls
Leftover wrapping paper
Shipping box cardboard
Personal touches make the magic.
