- Hi there!
I know, I know. The Valentine's Day was last week, so this video is a little bit late.
To be completely honest - this project wasn't originally on my schedule, so I didn't have the base doll prepared in advance.
Almost every single part of this project was insanely time consuming, but I hope, that in the end, all my efforts paid off.
It's a tradition now, here on my channel, that Valentine's specials have to be a bit sad, so this girl isn't an exception. Little lonely Cactus Fairy... just longing for some warm hug.
I hope that she will get some love from you, to ease her sorrow :)
Enjoy!

The real tragedy is that the Kevlar Fairy has always wanted to give the Cactus Fairy a hug, but fears rejection.
i think you just give next fairy idea to Marzena :D
🤣 What would a Kevlar fairy even look like?! 🤣
Don't get me wrong, it's an adorable idea, but I can't visualize it.
What is a Kevlar?
@@anonshrimp8299 a stab proof material it looks like a rough canvas up close. Commonly found in security guards vests, police vests and military gloves / tactical gear
She needs a boy cactus fairy
I think was the weight of her sadness that broke the pot. She is absolutely stunning. Those closeups at the end showed all her sadness. Very impressive workmanship
Thank you so much :) Every little detail was supposed to emphasize her sadness so I am happy that it worked :)
Not happy about the pot though XD
The pot looks fine after you fixed it you could hardly tell it was broken to begin with
You are genuinely one of the best doll creators on this platform :) love ur work
Thank you so much for saying that ^_^
Literally 🫶
@@CatmeleonStudio You still have that Draculaura doll with no hands, maybe she can be Pokemon Roselia or Roserade the rose pokemon or Devil Rose demon
or like the Little Shop of Horror's plant, she can still be useful to your creation's.
that's what i'm saying!! she deserves so much more attention
I just imagine her ideal friend as an Arizonian bobcat creature of sorts, since there's been a quite few spotted sitting on huge cacti! 😊
Id love to see this as a concept ,great idea.
You definitely outdid yourself with this one, the sculpt, the stand THE HAIR???? I'm sooooo amazed by this one edit: you could add some kintsugi to the pot to even more resemble the broken-ness of this character
The pot was doomed anyway. It cracked further yesterday so I will have to repot her before I will bring her to my mom :P Maybe a metal pot this time? :D
More cracks just mean more gold and it adds to the theme even more lol. Or even just paint a bowl to make it look like it
@@Mephistoasted tbf i dont think it would work on this subject :( these are stress breaks caused from constant pressure and repotting is the best bet cause the pot will keep breaking each time you try to seal it
Yeah that makes sense. You could probably just paint one to make it look like it though. Like maybe sculpt your own clay pot and carve some little grooves to make it look like they were cracks and then paint em gold?
As a cactus lover and collector, just those flower hair buns reminded me why you are my favorite doll creator here on YT. You're so creative and hard working! I admire your work so much :^D
Thank you so, so much!
So excited for this one. The facial expression is really entrancing for some reason. I love watching the detail you put into the dolls and the unconventional looks they put out.
Thank you so much! I really hope you will enjoy this one too! ^_^
yesss the face! It actually made me feel so bad for her even through she's just a doll
Excited to watch this one get created. Poor thing I’d put on a kevlar jacket just to give her a hug. You’re one of the best out there and your videos are always entertaining. Awesome work
Aaaw! She would love that hug! Thank you ^_^
You took precautions, sensible! I was just gonna dive in for a hug and get impaled and become a gruesome fountain.
Love the tradition. Love the fairy. My love of cacti, doesn’t hurt either. If you hadn’t said this wasn’t planned, I’d have never known. Great project as always! 💚
☺️
Thank you so much!
She turned out so precious! I'm not even a plant person, and I still love her! Her expression is just spot on!
Thank you!
She is gorgeous! A great balance of sad, creepy and lovely. Your sculpting amazes me. You always do a fantastic job, even if you run into problems along the way. Her hair is so cute. What a super idea, that looks so closely to a cactus flower. Sorry, your pot broke. Maybe it was her magic exploding with her great misery. She is stuck in this moment of anguish, but she should know, most cacti, IRL, have a companion, maybe a bird, owl, mouse, squirrel or insect that builds a home. Though not a lover, maybe she could eventually have a friend/fiend?! Anticipating the next project. 🥺🦅🦉🐀🐿🪲🌵
Love an idea of a friend instead of a love interest 💚 she could use any kind of good vibes I guess ^_^
Dear Catmeleon Studio! I want to express my admiration for you and your work, you are great! You are one of the best doll-creators on CZcams :)
aaaw, thank you ^_^ Than means a lot!
I can't be the only other touch adverse person who'd love to be a cactus fairy, right? Like poor baby wants a hug, but I'd be living my best life if no one could put their hands on me ever again xD Also the cactus flower hairstyle has to be my favorite part of this customization! It's so ingenious
In some cases I think we all wish to switch places with her, indeed ^_^
You're not alone at all!
I think that's partially the reason I like Goth fashion, especially things that feature unreasonably large metal spikes.
This has got to be your best project yet. Absolutely stunning! Your dolls are actual works of art. They should be in a museum or a gallery.
Aaaw, thank you so much for saying that ^_^
It would be really cool to see a tree fairy, but maybe, a burnt tree that’s been in a forest fire. You could even add embers in the ash too. I think that would be super cool
Wonderful! She’s definitely my favorite from the sad Valentine series. I think it’s the tears, or maybe that the pink tone around her spines makes them look like they hurt her. She seems tough, vulnerable, wistful, melancholy and resigned all at the same time.❤
Thank you! So happy that you like her ^_^
She's lovely. The reason your work is so special is your originality and attention to little details.
I’m excited for this one I love the fairies and winged creatures you make!!
Your husband is so lucky he gets a front row seat to your creative process.
I absolutely love this fairy. Cactus or not I would be happy to give her a hug! Your work is absolutely fabulous and I look forward to all of your other fantastic creations. ❤️❤️
The hug might be painful but worth it 😔
This video was worth the wait. She’s fabulous!
Oh poor little girl... This project is amazing. Really wonderful. I love love the fairy series.
Thank you! 😊 Happy to hear that! 💚
she looks like she tried to give her heart away and got rejected 😢
But she’s so beautiful ❤
What a spectacular creation! Your mom is one lucky lady to have your dolls!
Your pieces are always so beautiful. I love the detail and expression your pieces have even without crazy outfits. The creative stands you make just make the peaces standout. However I feel robbed of kitty litter!
I made so many projects without the kitty litter and yet, people are still surprised XD
More alchemy from a marvellous artist and sculptor. It somehow fits this beautiful but sad little cactus princesses narrative that she missed her Valentines deadline. Who wouldn't risk those thorns to make her smile? Just brilliant! The cracked pot was sent to test you but you passed with flying colours 😀 👍🏼
So happy you like her ^_^ I can spend hours and hours on each phase of the project, no problem, but I always underestimate the amount of work that I put on myself XD Always bite more than I can chew :P So I am horrible at deadlines XD
@Catmeleon Studio that's art!
She can still be loved!! Maybe not physically but she can still have an intimate connection and hold hands!!
She's like a cautionary tale of don't be so prickly or you will be sad and alone.
Every time I watch one of your videos, I think "this is the coolest thing I've ever seen" and then a new one comes out and I'm even more impressed. Despite that, I have to say this is absolutely one of the most beautiful and amazing works of art I have ever seen.
How long will I be able to keep it up? XD So much pressure! XD
Thank you so much and I am so happy that you enjoy my content! ^_^
Не знаю, дело в вашей идее или ее реализации, однако это самая красивая кукла с самым красивым концептом из всех что я видела. Она выглядит просто невероятно 😍😍😍
The thorns really brought this to full life I think this is just so amazing
I don’t care if she is a cactus fairy I still want to give her a hug ❤
I love how your dolls are always more of a sculpture than just a doll. I haven't seen that in this community before and it's so cool and interesting to see what poses and things you do with them.
This little fairy is so cute! I love cacti and succulents and she really does pull on the heartstrings. I just wanna wrap a blanket around her and squeeze her tight!
Thank you so much! I got the inspiration of making doll figurines instead of articulated dolls from Earth to Lylah :) She is a total pro! But now I am seeing that my own work inspires others to do their customs similar to me, so there will be more of those in the future, I think :)
I'm so excited!! I am always looking forward to seeing what you create next! They're so captivatingly beautiful.
As soon as i saw how you painted the scalp i knew EXACTLY what you were gonna do, and i loved it
I would definitely attempt hugging her tbh
Also I think the crack in the pot works with the concept broken fair in a broken environment ❤️ great work
Eu amo demais assistir os processos da costumização, simplesmente satisfatórias, que ela faz nas dolls, ansiosa pelo o vídeo 💖💖🇧🇷
So am I.
I love watching her process and her voice is pleasing to listen to.
This is phenomenal! Every time I think you can't top the last one you do! I can't believe the level of detail on her let alone such an amazing concept! Also, great job powering through the setbacks. As an artist that also struggles A LOT with eyelashes I feel your pain. Thank you for being such an inspiration. See you next time!
Thank you so much :) Happy that you enjoyed the process with all its ups and downs :D
The cactus heart and the way she's holding it makes it look like she got rejected... poor girl
In my headcanon she would be the lover of a bone fairy. She can kiss and even hug her without the fear of stabbing her lovers heart. And the bone fairy lowering her aggressive nature towards her sounds lovely
1st!!
;*
Honestly, I was screaming, "Where's the Sponge Fairy ?!" The spikes could poke the sponge no harm done.besides sponge colors are complementary to cactus color. She is just too adorable not to hug, despite all the danger.Your mom is so lucky to get all your adorable sad fairies.
i’ve never seen someone customize a doll and make it not posable but i think it’s so cool. really allows you to make it look like an actual body and much more detail i love❤️
The whole figurine is absolutely stunning and the story it tells... Just heartbreaking. I'm an idiot who smooches cacti. I'd give her a hug no problem.
What a pretty pricky stunning beauty! Her purple cactusfowerbud buns look so real! Who doesn`t want to give her a big hug?
Every new doll you make becomes my new favorite! But I grew up near the Sonoran desert, and this fairy hit close to home.
Oh god, she's gorgeous... And the hair is incredible, it looks exactly like little flowers. Poor little prickly fairy.
She awsome. The broken pot fits the theme. Not only is her heart broken but so is her pot. So very sad.
Cactus Fairy is lovely. I'd have to find a way to hug her till she didn't hurt anymore 😊
I probably wouldn’t hug her, but I would hold her hand! She is so cute.
the whole doll is a beautiful masterpiece, but the time and detail you put into the hair is absolutely incredible!
A masochist would LOVE her! So she has hope! 😊
I love seeing you turn these dolls into static works of art! It always feels like every repaint artist moves towards bjds and more movability when these are just as beautiful!
6:35 “ have you ever hug a cactus?”
Nope but a cactus hug me 😅🌵
giving her a hug would be worth the puncture wounds ❤❤ she's adorable!
I feel like a cool concept for this doll would be that her spines work like porcupine spines do. She can put them down when she feels safe and put them up for self defence when she feels threatened. I also think that she would be very skittish and always have her guard up. That's why she is so sad, because no one can get close to her and her heart... Literally and figuratively-
She's amazing, one of a kind. Your creations are worth waiting for, so happy I subscribed!!!
happy to have you here! ^_^
She's so precious and beautiful! Definitely worth the wait! Now I have an intense need to make a grumpy cactus fairy!
I LOVE this Cactus Fairy girl! So cute yet sad, she's beautiful and adorable.
I certainly can't hug my precious cacti, but I still love them c:
and I admire your doll figurines, and Lovebird is still one of my favorites 💖 this cactus fairy is charming!!
I just want to give her a hug. She deserves it. I’d give her a light hug, or hold her hand if that works lol
I think the crack in the pot adds character to her!
Waaaw im so exited! She looks incredible! 😍😍😍😍
Your dolls could fill a gallery. I am increasingly impressed with each video.
The lovebird is one of my favorite doll repaints I've ever seen. She haunts me ❤
This concept makes me think of an old and famous french children's musical (made for children, not by children) called « Émilie Jolie ». One of the characters is a hedgehog, and he's sad because nobody wants to pet him, for obvious reasons. But if I remember correctly, someone does pet him at the end of the story, and I'm pretty sure it's Émilie Jolie herself. So there's hope for this lovely fairy !
Sounds sweet :) I hope that someone will also hug my little fairy in the future, so she will get her happy ending :)
I feel like this ckracked pot fits the whole concept so much (just as her broken heart), don't replace it!
I just thought it would be even cooler if the whole back of her head was styled like the gorgeous flowers you did kind of like the fairies from the Spiderwick Chronicles? But overall she's beautiful and I find myself drawn to this specific type of art and fairy style you make. The sad ones are always the prettiest. I'd find a way to hug her, doesn't matter how, I may end up like a pincushion in the end, but it'd be worth it to give this sweet fairy a hug.
This sad fairy baby looks sooooo cool!! And I literally fell in love with a such juicy cactus in a pot! More than unusual stand...We need more unusual stands in future! 😋❤❤❤
I will do my best :D
I am in awe at your ability to come up with these ideas. Who thinks of a cactus fairy, and then it makes sense?? You are a genius.
The doll is spectacular.
I have a lot of crazy ideas XD Thank you so much and I am happy that you like her ^_^
She is so sad and so beautiful! Those tears, oh my gosh! Poor little thing! And I absolutely love her hair, it’s just perfect! And the cactus is gorgeous! I can’t believe that pot just broke out of nowhere that was a little bit crazy. Your mom must have been thrilled!
Thank you! And yes, my mom loves all my dolls, but this one is probably her favorite ^_^
I'm rewatching some of your videos, and I believe this sweet Fairy is one of my favorites of your creations. She is so sweet and precious.
I love that you gave her a tummy roll. It makes her feel more authentic!!!!
She's soooooo cute, I absolutely love how the hair turned out!! I'm really constantly impressed with the amount of work you put into these. They're just lovely.
This reminds me of when I learned that the tiny baby cacti that form at the base of cacti are called "pups" and a little San Pedro puppy-pup would be the perfect companion for her, I think!
She is gorgeous! When you mapped out the hair on the scalp with acrylics I was like ‘where is this going?’ But those little flower buns turned out AMAZING! Another triumph despite the setbacks.
She's well worth the wait, I love her! Especially the hair and the spines really sold the cactus fairy vibe.
The cracked pot is kind of perfect thematically. Adding some kitsugi detailing would make it match her sadness but ultimate perfection!
I squealed. I squealed out loud when I see this in my notifications.
those cactus flower space buns were a fucking phenomenal idea! Looks amazing
I really love the fairy projects, they are so cute and beautiful. It would be so cool if there were sea fairies.
Love your videos❤❤
In my opinion I could wait for your brilliant works as long as you need time for them. She looks absolutely amazing. I would hug this sweety because how can you not? This time her hair blows me away. This is such a cute idea. At first I thought you would let her hair as it was. But as cute little flowers - amazing. I love everything about this project and it can't make me more happy. A unice little cactus fairy. 💚💚💚🧚🏻♀️🌵
Thank you so much! So happy that you like the hairstyle! It took the whole night, but I am quite happy with the outcome ^_^
She's beautiful. The Valentine's dolls are always my favorite.
I love her!
I'm in love. I'd give her a hug. It's be painful, but so worth it. You could make an entire garden of faeries. Keep up the fantastic work.
I already have plans for some more potted beauties ^_^
Guys I'll take one for the team and hug her 😭 also I too love the more realistic proportions with the shrunken head size!!
At this point, I think you could make a fairy of anything!!! ❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Don’t sweat not getting your original idea up on time, it happens to everyone!!!
Thank you :)
OMG The pot breaking freaking scared the heck out of me. But I really love the design of this fairy, I would give her a freaking hug. I love cactus, so I really love this fairy.
It scared me to, trust me XD But I hope it won't be hard to repot her in a near future :) To the metal or plastic pot this time :D
@@CatmeleonStudio Yeah, hopefully, it wouldn't be hard to repot it.
Omg this evolution from the concept is EXTRAORDINARY! I’d love an entire garden of cactus fairies & I’d hug them anyway. She’s adorable & perfect. (Also instead of repotting her, a little wandering vne could cover the crack if it bothers you, but maybe it’s another reason she’s sad?) 🌵💔🧚♂️🪴🐈⬛🍈
In the video I just fixed the crack, but it broke further after I finished the video. The line goes now all the way to the front and it has sharp edges that brakes under the fingers - definitely ready for repoting XD
@@CatmeleonStudio I’m sorry. That’s so disheartening when things like that happen. Maybe her new pot can be a deep purple? 🪴💜🌵
Wow she's gorgeous!♡ I love her flower space-bun hair! I bet if there was a Slime Fairy that they'd be able to give her a hug no problem; all the spikes would just harmlessly pass through them!
I like the idea :)
The way your dolls look mid-process when youve glued theyre torsos with hot glue makes me think you could make a really cool android/robot type doll with transparent parts.
Can’t wait to see shrunken heads on the new 2023 MH bodies! I adore your cactus fairy so much, I actually loved her hair before you did anything with it but those hair flowers are epic! And that stand ! Perfection!!
I can't find words to describe how much i love this project
She's just gorgeous in every way ❤️❤️❤️❤️
some cool character concepts you add to grow the species in your world lol you could do a mormo, scylla, echinda, valkyrie, campe, kraken, basilisk, hydra (multiple heads), a leprechaun, and a yeti (lol it would be soooo cute 😭) a lot are from greek mythology. I feel like you would come up with such amazing concepts for these with your girls ❤️ thank you for making videos like this. OMG AND A MUSHROOM FAIRY 😭😭😭
the head shrinkage is crazy...awesome work. She's adorable.
WOW! JUST WOW! I'm so inlove with her! I want her sooooo bad! I have had this type of cactus for many years. One of my fav cactus, mine had lime green flowers. And was nicknamed 'Glittery Garry' by a colleague later cos I accidentally ended up spilling some glitters on him while decorating the pot. I just love your creativity. I can't get over how badly I want to have this fairy girl in my home to befriend my lonely cactus
She's incredible! You're so incredibly talented
I wish more creators would glue and cover joints. I know it has drawbacks, but I love the fluidity you can achieve when you have a specific pose in mind. Truly love your work ❤️
Zero drawbacks for me XD But every one creates what and how they feel ^_^ Whatever floats whose boat :D
All I will say is ... love everything you do, don't stop, keep your traditions and can I have them please 🤣
She's adorable and so sad! The hair is fantastic! Even though the pot broke, thats pretty easily replaced. I continue to love everything you make, always excited to see what you will make next!
Thank you!
Yup, I will have to replace the pot and I hope it won't be a lot of work with it :) But I will definitely go with a metal or at least plastic one this time :D
