Well, what else can I say…life got busy and then busier.  You would think the pandemic would have been prime time to get the blog going again.  It was indeed the plan but alas, plans don’t pan out.  I’m still here.  I still collect.  I still take photographs of my dolls ( although not a lot in the past couple of years).  Why am I blogging today you ask.  Well, my good friend Hilda Westervelt ( Bellissima Couture) have cooked up a collaborative Holiday collection and I wanted to share.  It felt good to pick up the camera and create again.  I think I ..read more

So in case you have not seen enough of these new Muse dolls by JAMIEshow/OwenSu, here I am again with some more visual reasons to consider these dolls.  One of the things I like to do most with the dolls and clothing available within the 1/6 collecting community is to mix and match.  I like to mix outfits from one manufacturer and put it on a doll of another manufacturer.  Taking the best from one and matching it to the best of another or at least what I see as the best.  For those of you who follow me on Instagram, you have seen some of these image already.  I am find ..read more

If six dolls were not enough to choose from, there is literally a fire hose rate of options in fashions and accessories with this collection.  There are 18….yes…18 outfit choices this time around plus 4 shoeliscious accessory sets.  Get ready for some sticker shock though.  These outfit are not cheap people.  Each one will run you $110 ( accessory sets are priced at a whopping $125).  The accessory sets do come with 3 sets of shoes plus 3 bags so priced out that is $21/ item.  If these shoes are anything like last release, then they are very good quality shoes tha ..read more

Well it’s a new month and I have a new muse.  Rather..I have a couple of new muses.  First off, I received the new East 59th ladies from Integrity Toys designed by Chris Stoeckel a couple weeks back and finally had a chance to debox them.  Beautifully tailored clothing as one would expect from Mr Stoeckel.  He never disappoints.  My must have from this particular capsule collection was Miss Della Roux.  Here are the promotional photos. Merry & Bright Della Roux Dressed Doll The East 59th® Collection Limited Edition: 550 Dolls Expected Ship Date: Late Winter/ E ..read more

I am awaiting Spring.  While I wait for it to arrive, I decided to make my own garden of sorts.  As I  have shared in previous posts, I have been playing around with making my own 1/6 scale flowers.  There are lots of tutorials on making paper flowers online.  There is not….however…lots of tutorials on how to make 1/6 scale paper flowers.  Given that, I had to essentially come up with my own patterns and a way of making them in this scale.  I enjoy the process itself of figuring out things in this scale.  In order to feel accomplishment however, I need a ..read more

Poppy at the Flower Market

When I started making 1/6 flowers, it was with this diorama in mind.  I wanted to do a French style flower market.  I started with 1/6 roses and then just kind of took off into other types and varieties.  I have not stopped.  I work predominately in paper.  All kinds of paper from tissue through crepe paper and into thicker cardstock.  Each flower type has it’s different personality that requires a different structure.  That is part of the beauty of discovery when crafting I suppose.  For me, there is a photo shoot concept at the end that drives me.  ..read more
