I've tried this before on some of my dolls (nothing this interesting I didn't go past lobe studs or small hoops) but for anyone else trying this I would recommend pre-piercing the holes with a thin pin or needle, then use a wider needle to persuade the hole to stay, then cut/ bend the dress-makers pin to size before inserting it. I found doing it this way distorted the vinal less and gives you more time to be precise with the placement. hope this helps someone! and great tutorial, I love your vids!!
Great tips! Thank you so much for watching and leaving a great comment!! Hopefully this also helps our fellow doll piercers!! :)) I'm so glad you're enjoying the vids!!
I'm wondering if you could use a super-fine drill bit with a hand drill? I think it's called a pin vise? I have one and drill bits thinner than a dressmaker's pin--seems like that would be easier to insert, and still hold because you're just stretching the vinyl a bit. Kind of like they do with an actual piercing (proper piercers, not piercing guns).
What a great timing! I was planning to do piercing on my newest doll inspired by yours and here you're uploading a tutorial! You are reading in my mind ;). For the name of tutorial doll... maybe Eddie, from "education"? :)
Love your dolls and this video-do you or any viewers know about the potential for green ear (eventual discoloration of the vinyl) from these metal piercings? I know to avoid copper but I’m wondering if stainless steel hardware is safe?
i'm not into piercing, but this is helpful and, well, you never know. maybe someday, i could have some use of the tricks you showed^^ some sequences reminded me of tiktok videos i've seen, about a "home piercing challenge" with some randomizer that decides for you where to put a piercing on your face. i saw this through the reaction video of a profesional piercer, and those examples were pretty awful XD

I would recommend pre piercing the vinyl with a needle before putting in the blunt piercings, that way you have to use less force :)
Imagine if Toy Story was real and she had to feel all that
I love your work though!
Literally my exact thought as I was squishing her little nose "yikes thankgoodess she cant feel that!!"
you make such beautiful designs!
Thank you so much!! :)
Kia Ora from a warm and windy Hastings. Great tuturial

Woohoo!! Can't wait to see your pierced doll! And I love Eddie as a name! :)
So cool! Interesting about the piercings and poppets and magic dolls!
Thank you!!! :)
Your doll is so pretty:)
Absolutely beautiful. 😊
Thank you!!! :)
Great tutorial, super helpful. I was waiting for this so badly! Thank you!
Woohoo!! Can’t wait to see what you create 🌱

Very interesting!
Wow! This is a great tutorial.
I have a question, can't you cut the needle after the piercing in order to not be so big inside the head..?
Try another coat of Mr Super Clear if you get tiny cracks in the faceup, sometimes it seems to fix itself
Maybe the doll could be named Mariah.

Oh gosh that sounds like my worst nightmare!! Hopefully they watched some instructional human piercing vids before hand hahaha!
@@OfCraftsCurios if they had watched instructional video , they would have it done by a professional, instead of butchering their own face 😂
How do you do an eyebrow piercing?
😃
Your tutorial doll looks like a girl I know from high school. Mckenzie, I think her name was?
