It's Snowing!!!

Penny and Lily looked out the window and discovered it was snowing. Immediately Penny started yelling for big sister Valentine to come quick.


Poor Valentine was getting a headache from all the pestering by Penny begging to go out in the snow. We will have to wait and see what happens next.

The Tiny BJD Family

I took a photo of all my tinies. They are each from a different company and are quite a variety of sizes and shapes. In the back from left to right: Planetdoll Riz, Elfdoll Winkie, Pukipuki Pongpong, Lati Yellow Lami. In the front on the left is a baby Hujoo (in ABS, not resin) and Orientdoll White Chocolate Vampire So.



Valentine wanted to try her hand at photography, but Penny was not cooperating!

The Montoyas

Josefina has the largest area in the doll room for her house because I love the style of southwestern and Mexican furnishings more than any other. It didn't make sense for her to ramble around her home all alone, so I gave her a sister, Clara. Clara is a #44 with the wig from #55.



Here are all three of my Montoyas. Marisol is now named Esperanza and is a cousin who lives with Josefina.

The rancho is being remodeled so I'm not sharing photos yet. I purchased some miniature tiles in Mexico that I want to incorporate and I need to make a better adobe fireplace for the sala.

Kimi and Ailís

Ailís enjoyed walking in the snow yesterday.


It was actually quite warm in the sun so she pulled off her hood and picked up some of the fluffy whiteness.


She carried the snow into the chalet where she was meeting her friend, Kimi.


I asked the girls if they met at the chalet so they could watch the boys out on the hockey rink, but they emphatically denied that!

Homage a Kimi

I've been feeling very nostalgic this weekend as I took photos of two older dolls. First is Kimi, an early version of Souldoll's MSD.


She was my second BJD and first MSD sized one.


Kimi came to live with me in May 2007 and has had quite a variety of wigs over time.


Parsley Pixie was a Valentine's gift and a special edition called a White Chocolate Vampire by Orientdoll. She as three pairs of wings that attach with magnets, but don't work over some clothing.


I never could decide on a wig for Parsley. She and Kimi were and are still great friends. I made the outfits both are wearing.

Stuffies, Mini Doll Sizes and Vintage Dolls

I am catching up the blog with three days of photos.


This is Hoppy, my husband's childhood stuffy. He still has all his limbs, but was very well loved.


Hoppy and my childhood Teddy Bear hang out together in a glass cabinet.


Next, a few people have asked me about the sizes of Tiny Riley and a mini American Girl. I photographed Peter (who is regular Riley size), mini Josefina, Tiny Riley and my Nancy Ann Storybook Doll all together. You can see why I think of Tiny Riley as being so petite.


And finally, today's photo shows Elizabeth (on the right) meeting a new friend. She's a little intimidated by new girl's perfect blonde hair and shiny body. I hope they get along!

Ready For the Game

Saila is out on the ice warming up before the game.



I love the quality of Maplelea products. This hockey uniform is very realistic. Good luck to Saila!
