Dol Go-Im Update
Oh before I forget, don’t forget to watch Celebrity Apprentice this sunday! Zoe & I are going to be on it!!! I bet you it’ll just be Zoe. She was very popular that day. Who knows? Maybe they just cut us all out.
*sigh* Oh my poh poh widdle fingas. They fuckin hurt! I hate hot glue. I have a headache from the fumes. I think I’m high. I’ve been going to sleep at like 3 or 4 am just trying to finish a project per night but I think I’m gonna call it a night soon. I’ll pull an all nighter tomorrow. This is what I have so far and I have to say this is one craft I’m not going to miss doing.
Photo of Zoe + Big Zoe dancing in front of the mirror in the bathroom while I was getting her bath ready tonight. Do you think they look alike? Most people would say yes but I have to post baby photos of the both us next to hers and THEN we’ll see.

awww that mouse is soooooooooooooo cute! I think Zoe looks like a mix of the 2 of you…let’s see the baby pics! the gumballs will be MUCH easier, trust me! So is Zoe’s Korean name really spelled with the two ㅅㅅ? or were you trying to make her name sound cuter when you read it?
the mouse one is awesome!? so the base is a roll of paper towels?
the zoes look so happy in that pic. very sweet
are you going to be using these as the rice cake stand? Wow, great job, I love the colors on the right one.
those came out amazing!!!! wow. zoe looks so much like her dad. I think most of the girls look like their daddy’s and boys look like their mommies. A looks so much like her dad!
okay, i give you the prize! top xanga mom preparing for dol! girl, you’re soooooooo creative! i wish i had one iota of the of creativeness you do!!!
uhm, yes, i was working on my dolgoim’s too and i have freaking burns all over my hands! i told myself i wasn’t gonna be one of those people and now…I AM! sucks ass!
dude your mouse is sooo cute but probably too girly for huddy huh? i was looking for a cute mouse and i MIGHT have one to use but most are not too cute or very girly. btw, are those normal size jelly beans you used? i need to figure out plan b cuz i got HUGE gumballs by accident. we actually freaking almost finished one when we realized it was gonna look too funny. dflkjf#*O&R$#*(&43!!!!!!
You’re definately on crack! Ahahahha they look great though… I wouldn’t even know where to start.
omg the mouse is awesome! seriously…you’re bananas!!! haha but i love it
@hudson_umma - 1/2 inch gumballs woman! What happened????
GEEEEEEEEEEEZ – those are some cute projects. GEEBUS! What is it for?
They do look alike but I can totally how she can look a lot like you!
dang girl! i know i say this all the time, but the zoeski better know how lucky she is have such a creative mommy.
seriously tho, i know that the economy is rough right now & ppl prolly won’t just go out & sprlurge on frivolous things, but you should think about making this a career! i’d be the first one to hire you!
i hope you keep this blog along forever so zoe can see all you did for her. the mouse is really cute!
why candy?
You will have to make a tutorial on how you did this. They are AWESOME! Seriously, you need to go into business! I’m sure you’ll have lots of customers.
hubs and zoe are so cute!! i think they look SO alike.
I love your mouse! Would you mind if I tried using the same one? Did you draw it yourself or did you get it from somewhere?
when it’s just me and marian… “omg, she looks JUST like you!!” then w/ the same, exact person… if they end up meeting my husband or seeing his picture… “no, wait… oh sorry, she REALLY looks like him”… bah!
the dol go-im is soooo cute!! you are an amazing crafting super mama! can you puh-leaseee do a tutorial on this? i know i won’t need it for another 10 months but i want ours to look exactly like this.
btw, is that a huge map on your wall? where did you get it?
AH! This is the secret to the dol go ims! Hmmm… I’d be eating the jelly beans, not hot gluing them on the dol go im. *grins* I LOVE the photo of Z and your husband in the mirror! So cute.
You’re so funny with the captions. 
Love seeing your sense of humor!

@PetiteMandoo - tyler’s bday is Aug 21, 2009. we are in the process of moving this month so not sure where the dol will be. If korean place – i’m sure they will have set up. if we are having at home, would def want some of those things you made ! they are awesome and SO much better than the ugly ones in the stores ! will be in touch. (and we can talk more at JS’s wedding i think i’ll be there!)
@skippeeahn - we got it at ikea! i love it! it’s huge! here’s the link: http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/70119430
@always_ss - i found a photo of hello kitty in a mouse costume. i got rid of the costume and just made it a mouse. here you go: http://www.fashionmyspacelayout.com/images/backgrounds/hellokitty-0001.jpg
@GeLLiBeLLy - ur comment just put you on my shit list. hahaha j/k…. i still thinks he looks like me! am i blind?
@JayMonKeee - she does right?! thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it was all for her birthday!
@hudson_umma - this is probably too late but i don’t think the mouse i used would be too girly for hudson’s dol. it’s too late right?
@PetiteMandoo - you know what’s funny? I was looking for pictures of cute mice the other day and I found one exactly the same as the one you made! I didn’t realize til I saw your goim again. =)
@littlemisstomato - yes just papertowels
@hkcho - my mil spelled it
@PetiteMandoo - thanks buddy! i didn’t know the one you have is the ikea one! i’ve always wanted that one but thought it was too beeeeee-sah.
hello zoe-umma,
i’ve been admiring your dol goims. can i just tell you how much i love them? my son’s dol is coming up and i am going to attempt to make one (a cow) since he was born last summer. i noticed you used a roll of paper towel as a stand but was wondering how you got the paper to wrap around the entire roll? did you use foil? and then tape? if you wouldn’t mind sharing, i’d love to get some tips. thank you so much.
@one_happy_bride - hi! if i remember correctly i used two sheets 8.5×11 paper. since i already had my hot glue gun out i glued it on with that.
@PetiteMandoo - Thanks so much!!! not looking forward to using the glue gun. : )
