    Hoarders: Barbie's Dreamhouse

    This is not my custom nor it has nothing to do with MEGO but the woman's name is Carrie Becker and she is a genius.

    It's basically Barbie stuff made to look like she's a Hoarder. Just take a look at how small and detailed her stuff is. It makes you think twice about talent when you see how someone can take something like this and make it look almost real. It's amazing!!!!!!
    It's obvious the time she put into repainting the barbie items, printing out small pictures and tying off small plastic bags. I don't want to know what is in the tub and toilet but this took a person with dedication and a busy thinking mind to set this up.





















    This is the set of Working From Home, shortly after being photographed in my studio at McColl Center for Visual Art, Charlotte, NC in November, 2011. It is sitting on a 12 x 12 inch pedestal.

    Babs is waaaay beyond hoarding. That toilet and tub are in some seriously nasty shape.

    It seems like I have seen this posted here once before some time ago. Still funny to look at though. Especially for those that may have missed it the first go around.

    Okay, so I couldn't figure out why this had been posted on here at first. I just looked ad the pics and then thought "what does this have to do with anything?". Then I read the narrative. HOLY COW! That kind of detail is FREAKY! Amazing. Now I get it!

    I have to admit, that is pretty freaking cool. Emphasis on "freaking".

    That is rather amazing, though I could have done without the toilet

    Haha - the detail is amazing!

    while this would not be something i would ever think of making

    the time and details she took to put in this is just mind blowing - she really had a vision or an idea and went with it. It looks like she put a lot of heart into this.

    Hats off to her - great job!
