Barb Wood & Daughter Jessy
I started collecting Barbies for my daughter in 1988 but didn’t start customizing them until 1997. I have always loved drawing and painting/customizing a doll gives me a 3-dimensional canvas to work with. During my childhood, I was always fascinated with the fantasy realm so my dolls usually have a magical appearance~~lots of glitter and wings!! My daughter usually has some creative ideas and will occasionally sketch them for me but most of my work is just sheer imagination! My creations include fairies, mermaids, butterflies and any other kind of fantasy doll!! The more glitter and glitz, the better!!!
Greetings from the “Jerzy” shore!! I’m Barb Wood and, although I am originally from Trenton, NJ, I now reside in South Jersey with my husband and daughter. I am currently working in a Pathology Laboratory in a South Jersey Hospital.
