It's been a rough several months. I've definitely had to do some dressmaking
And I've possibly brought home more Disney Princess dolls than was strictly necessary...
 |
| they were on clearance? |
...but when even the packaging is fun to play with, who can blame me?
But of course, when you buy more dolls, they demand more accessories! Thank goodness
TinyFrockShop was there for me in my hour of need.
 |
| I made the skirt, TinyFrockShop provided the rest of the ensemble |
 |
| I've had my eye on this necklace for months! |
 |
| A few impulse buys of course |
 |
| It's metal! It's about time my dolls had a smartphone |
 |
| I couldn't resist this jewelry set |
But I was going on vacation, and that meant that Regina wanted a swimsuit of her own. Out came the fabric and sewing kit again!
I had never made a doll swimsuit (or any swimsuit!) before! It is made from the fabric of an old swimsuit that is far too small for anyone living here, so I found it fitting to turn it into a doll suit. Super stylish and perfect for her!
But then while I was on the trip, I made the mistake of going to a bulk goodwill. Those places are so horrifying, but I found a few treasures, including a couple of dolls. One was a GI Joe that is a double for one I already have. Another was a blonde lady with frizzy hair who just needed to come home with me! Into my bag she went and for only a few pennies! She has now been washed and had her hair styled back to perfection.
When I returned home, there was a package waiting for me. I had forgotten that I had ordered a few more dolls...and one was eager to be out and about!
The new ladies seem to be making friends. There is one more new lady who is nowhere to be seen. Hmm, who could it be?
I really think it is going to be a slow doll year for me, but I would love to get one of the new yoga curvies! Eeee! If only! (but there are also some really cute fashionistas too...hmm but I need to save for a doll shelf...this hobby is dangerous!)
