Aahh! Barbie The Movie came out and i saw it at the cinema on the first day of showing! Barbie The Movie poster I brought my Barbie bag, and my Barbie journal, which is not in the photo because it was inside the bag, lol. I brought my Barbie Spy Squad Cat Burglar doll, too.

Saw this on the stairway Buffet food Cocktail called “Barbie” but I didn’t get mine because I had to drive back home a ..read more

Hello! I’m sorry I haven’t been posting in a long while. I’ve made a lot of changes in my life and that includes my hobby here which is doll collecting. I’ve sold many of the dolls I’ve rescued and collected because I want to minimize my collection. I haven’t made doll dioramas in years, so I figured I should let go of most of the doll props and furniture I’ve collected and stored in plastic bins and also boxes under my bed. It’s kinda sad because I used to be passionate about it, but there’s still a part of me that knows that if I ever want to come back and make doll dioramas again, I’m alway ..read more

Here’s my current collection of doll horses. I didn’t intend to build a small collection like this. I just started with one horse, the Barbie horse (far right), because it was the only one I could find at the moment, then I found the Battat horse (far left), and thought, hey I don’t have a bigger horse oh this must be nice. Then I forgot about it. Then recently I found two horses from the Spirit Riding Free line and suddenly remembered the movie. It was so good! I haven’t seen the series yet and I only know of Spirit, the one with the dark mane, but the other one, I had to look up. Its name i ..read more

I finally got the energy to sew something for Lottie. I bought a pack of felt from Mr. DIY and downloaded this dress pattern for Lottie and modified it so that I could make a dress similar to the one worn by the doll from the Netflix show called Squid Game. I made this last month: The colors are off. I can explain. There were two kinda of orange felt from the pack I bought, but I didn’t want to mess with the darker orange felt before I got the modification correctly, so I used the lighter orange. I also didn’t want to copy the dress the exact same way. I took some artistic liberty to make t ..read more

Dear Readers, I haven’t written a blog in months. As per a previous blog entry, I mentioned that I wanted to focus on my health. It’s been a journey and it’s taking a long while to achieve my health goals but I’m getting there. I’m doing fine, I feel fine. You don’t have to worry about me. ✊ Anyway I just want to post some photos I took of my Lotties a little while back. They’re playing with My Mini MixieQ’s, the ones I received as gift from Melissa. Thank you! So grateful. These two girls are playing this fishing game. It’s a tiny one I found at Toys R Us and I thought the fishin ..read more

Honestly, struggling to keep a hobby during this pandemic should be the least of my worries, because people are getting sick and dying all over the world and it can come off as insensitive, but for the rest of us who have managed to be covid-free (So thankful!!) and choose to stay at home to self-isolate, I think it can be a big deal. It’s challenging during these times to keep the mind healthy. My doll collecting has been affected mainly because I had to move out of the city to live with my dad in his rural hometown. If I remember correctly, even before the pandemic happened, I have decided ..read more

I gave my niece this alphabet puzzle and she has familiarized herself with it in a week. The puzzle had to be put away afterwards because she got bored, haha. She just turned two last month. Video below ..read more

Hello. It’s been a long time since I wrote on this blog. I just came back to post a few life updates. During this coronavirus pandemic, I’ve managed to stay ~healthy, meaning I’m infection free. My family seems fine, too. We moved out of our city to my dad’s hometown for the duration of this long-standing community quarantine, and it took some adjustments on everyone’s part to make this shelter we have feel a bit like home. During the lockdown, my weight has see-sawed and my emotional state has been rocky. There are times I feel gloom, uncertainty, and despair, while the other I feel like I’m ..read more
