They're here! Part II

Image
Delilah:  Hi Lilly!  Welcome to our dolly's world!  It feels so great to have a sister! I'm so happy! Lilly:  Well, I'm glad to be here.  There's so many different kinds of dolls here.  This is nice.  I feel so special.  I'm glad Mom bought me otherwise there's no telling where I would've ended up.  I like this outfit!  All I need now are some earrings and I'll be straight!! Delilah:  I'm sure Mom will make some to go with your outfit.  I'm glad that our pictures were finally taken and added to this blogger.  We look great! Ari:  Well, there's some pictures of me too!  Just hanging out with my BFF!  I hope Mom gets some new wigs and changes me up a bit. BiJou:  I'm sure she will.  You might want to try some of the Ello's wigs though.  They fit Delilah's head so maybe they'll fit yours too. Me:  In the meantime, here's some more photos of my latest additions.  Diane Evans...

The ladies are here!! Part 1

Finally!  The ladies have all arrived today, so here's some pictures. Delilah and Lilly Lilly Paris Williams' is a Madame Alexander 16" doll she's a gorgeous gal! These are just some of the photo shots I took this evening.  More to come later during the week. Nite nite

Hmmm, bummer!

Delilah:  I'm tired of just sitting here.  I thought Mom was taking our pictures. Lily:  She did take our pictures, remember? Delilah:  Yeah, I remember - but I thought we were getting a photo shoot. I want to show off. Lily:  Well, I heard Mom mumbling something about not finding her USB cord on her camera.   She did take a few pictures, but she needs that plug. Me:  (sotto voice) Lily fitted right in and when she arrived and met her twin sister Delilah, it was such a shock!  As you can tell, they fit in beautifully.  Now where the heck did I put that cord?  Argh!  So frustrating! Arizona:  Mom did take a few of pictures.  We have to help her find that cord?  BiJou, do you remember seeing where Mom last had it? BiJou:  Ah, no.  I was in the closet for heavens sake!  I don't know where anything is! Arizona:  Oh pooh!  I was hoping you might know.  sigh...  Maybe sh...

Wow! I must love October!

As I peruse my blog, I noticed that I posted here 16 times!  That's a record for me!  LOL!  Well, I guess cause there's been alot of activity with new dolls coming in and me making time to post pictures of them.  I plan on taking more photos of them after they've all arrived ~ somthing more like a group photo.  Kind of helps me keep track of how many new and old dolls I have. So far, I've kept my count of ten Ellowyne's!!  Even though I have been tempted as alot of people are selling older edition dolls so they can buy the newer ones.  Here's my group shot of Ellowyne.... And here's some pictures of the newest Ellowyne's and Prudence that Wilde Imagination is currently listing.... This is Essential Prudence Three, Wigged Out, $110 She's such a comical gal...I'm not feelin her face up.  But I do love the new wig she's wearin! up close Here she is in the white wig.  I am DEFINITELY not liking this wig AT ALL!! I think it's the e...

Lilly has arrived!!

Lilly has arrived!!  Woo hoo!  Who is Lilly?  Why Lilly is Delilah's twin sister!  Just that Lily has blue eyes and Delilah has brown.  And they're changeable.  I will post pics of her later on this weekend.  Still waiting for Diane and Paris.  Can't wait til they come too!!  All for now.

Just Talking

Brianna:   Hey! Where'd everybody go? Brittany :  I think they're in the bag. Brianna:  Why?  Are they all in the bag?  Where is the bag?  MOM!!!! Me :  Brianna!  Shhh!  Calm down.  Where's the emergency? Brianna :  Huh?  Emergency?  Wha! Me:   You were yelling out my name like there was a fire.  What is going on with you? Brianna :  Where's Lara & Lana, RayChelle, Jacqueline, Friday and the rest of them? Me :  Didn't Brittany tell you?  They're in the bag in the closet.  I was getting them ready for the next dolly outing. Brianna :  Oh. (smiles sheepishly). Me :  I had planned on taking everyone out this weekend, but I forgot I need to get ready to go back to work.  So, we're not going anywhere this Saturday. Brittany :  Bummer.  Oh well.  At least they did have a lil photo shoot.  Hey Bri, did you say hello to the new doll?...

Talented Artists

I have had the pleasure to "talk" to the talented lady who created the repainted dolls for steampunk that I talked about in a previous post.  Her name is Caren.  Her site is Heart and Soul Repaints by Caren.  This is a very talented young lady and she's so nice!!  She's in my EE board group (EE stands for Ellowyne's Ennui).  When I first started this blogger it was all about Ellowyne Wilde, but because I have other dolls it wasn't fair of me to always show off Ellowyne.  So, I changed the name and now show off all of my dolls! Okay, back to Caren.  Anyway, I bought some outfits from her and she showed me some pics of some of the characters from the movie Twilight  (which I happen to be a fan of!!) that she repainted.  I know she won't mind if I show them off here! Edward & Bella - the likeness is so uncanny. Bella's close up Jacob & Bella Bella I cannot wait til Breaking Dawn comes out!! Woo hoo!!   Ahem, back to wh...

Another New Doll

Image
Me:  Yep, I've been perusing ebay again!!  And guess who I fell in love with?  Paris Williams!  Who's that?  Well, she's a 16" Madame Alexander doll and she's gorgeous!!  Here's her picture.... She has bendy wrists and is very poseable! Here's another pose! She and Jacqueline will be the best of friends!  (They both have blonde hair! LOL) I guess I'll never stop looking at dolls, though I can't remember how I came across this lovely lady.  There are more like her as always.  Check these out! Backstage Pass This girl's got boxed braids with the black rubber bands on the end!!  You go girl! Greed Paris Williams close-up Festiva Paris Williams close - up Now these pics are not mine.  I borrowed them from the sellers.  Just wanted to show off what this gal looks like. I've already bidded on "Always a Lady".  Because this doll came out already, I don't think anyone will outbid me.  At least I hope they do...

Who's Diane Evans?

Image
Me:  Who's Diane Evans?  Well, she's Friday Foster's half sister.  I was just perusing ebay as I usually do and came across her ~ the rest as they say is history!!  Here's her photo.... Diane Evans from the Ann Harper collection, by Robert Tonner From what I understand, she has the Friday Foster sculpt, hence she is Friday's half sister. Here's another photo of her, a close-up She does resemble Friday, just a little bit.  This doll runs for $135 but I've seen her for $20 less.  I have to send a message to the seller and ask him to hold her for me.  She will make a nice edition to my already collection of gals.  I already love her!!  So, you know who's getting a photo shoot when they get here!  LOL!

My dolly journal

Well, today is the first day of this lovely dolly journal.  This afternoon I took my neglected dolls out of their hiding places and redressed them and restyled their hair.  What a lot of work!! Whew!!  I had to redress twelve dolls!!  I had a plan of doing a photo shoot today, but after all the redressing and doing hair - I'm pooped!!  So, I've decided to wait until tomorrow.  Everyone looks so nice!!  Lana and Lara (aka the twins) are both looking gorgeous as always!!  I shall not post any pics this evening.  So, you'll have to wait.  I must send an email to my dolly fashionista so I can show her that her outfits fit other dolls as well.  Wait til you see them!!  I can hardly wait!  So, here they are..... Will Turner :  Honey, what you're wearing compliments me so well.  I love how Mom always seems to match us up perfectly. Lara :  How true!  I do love the outfit I'm wearing and can't wait for o...

I still thinking.....

At first I thought doing themes would be fun ~ but now I realized that it's alot of work!!  Plus, since I'm the only one putting up pics, that's why it's so hard!!  Well, I'll just have to think of something else to do to make this blogger more interesting and fun.  Hmm, maybe I could do a dolly journal.  Similar to my journal on the live journal website.  Sounds like a plan!  OK, I'm going to start working out the kinks!

Yay! Today is the 7th day! Yippee!

Wa hoo!  Whew!  Today is the 7th day of this theme Braided Updo's!  So, here's my last gal, enjoy her, she's alot of fun!  Her name is Wilhemina!!  Woo hoo! Umm, she has a partial updo! Of course, she's wearing an outfit by my favorite dolly designers Maggie & Kate!  Tomorrow, well, we'll try something different!
