Adopted Dolls – Half-Imagined

Brown-Eyed Girl

AtomicSpaceKitty — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 19:23:48 +0000

I wanted to try some new eyes on Wednesday. I think these brown ones are very pretty, but it's weird to see her without her grey ones. What do you think?

Story time for the Wee Ones!

She's a sweet big sister.

New Year's Eve: the perfect time of year to look back at which of my photos were the most popular in my Flickr stream.

1. Personal Favorite: Naptime: Extras (1 of 7)
Lalaloopsies and Wednesday—it doesn't get much cuter than that! This was one of my favorite photo shoots. It was just so much fun to do and I kept giggling over how cute everything was.

2. Most Views: Fallout
I took this picture a few of years ago when the Fallout 3 game was coming out. I think the reason it's gotten so many views is because of the word "fallout". I bet people have come to view it based on the word alone and have been very confused as to why they are looking at a weird doll.

3. & 4. Most Favorites & Most Comments: Lazy Day (7 of 7)
Another picture that I took a few years ago. Viktor doesn't even live here anymore. It sure is a nice photo to look back upon though. I forget how sexy he was. <3

Happy New Year, everybody!

Princess Toadstool

When my sister visited me last month, she brought a present for Pip: a little toadstool outfit by Boneka plus a toad/frog finger puppet. So cute!

The rubber froggy is from a Muffy Vanderbear set that includes a rubber ducky as well. My dad gave it to me for Christmas a couple of years ago.

And, isn't that bird adorable? It looks so vintage. I love this re-ment set.

Our Dolls, Part 1

AtomicSpaceKitty — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 21:29:43 +0000

My sister was visiting me last week and she brought some of her dolls. I took the chance to take some pictures of them with my little ones.

Here, my Pip plays with Snoink (my sister's teddy piglet) and his wee teddy bear (yes, Snoink has a teddy of his own). Pip spent the week playing with them and loved them so much that she was sad when they had to go home.

To tell you the truth, I'm lucky my sis didn't sneak Pip into her suitcase when she left—she threatened to do so several times during her week here.

Snoink is actually the stuffed animal/pet of my sister's Alice Cherry Blossom. I'm going to post a picture of wee Ali tomorrow.

Being an equal opportunity piglet, Snoink didn't spend all his time with Pip, he also joined Scout (my Lati Yellow Byurl) for a trail ride. It was rainy out so the duo had to settle for a ride around the table, but they had fun nonetheless.

Scout is riding Paradise Island, a My Little Pony that my aunt rescued from a thrift store and sent to me. Her mane and tail were a hot mess when she arrived, but I conditioned them with fabric softner and then dipped them in boiling water to straighten the hair. She looks much better now, but I think I might trim her mane and tail—the ends are still a bit dry and frizzy. Scout loves her no matter what though.

Snoink got to ride McPonysons. Don't they make an adorable pair?

Dress-Up

AtomicSpaceKitty — Fri, 09 Sep 2011 21:50:55 +0000

It's time to play dress-up! These dresses that Scout and Pip are modeling remind me of what little girls in the 1920s would have worn.

Telling secrets! What are you whispering about, girls?

Shy little girl.

Back-view of the little dress. I love the bow.

Work that pose, Scout!

Twirl around and show us the bow.

Cute close-up of Pip. I took one of Scout too, but it didn't turn out.

Little Pip

AtomicSpaceKitty — Fri, 22 Jul 2011 22:17:03 +0000

I've been wanting a Pukifee for awhile now, I just wasn't sure which one (there are so many cute ones!). As luck would have it, I checked on Denver Doll last week and they had a Pukifee Icis in stock. It was fate!

I think I'm going to name her "Pip". I'm in love with her pouty little face.

Doll Chat, Part 1

AtomicSpaceKitty — Thu, 02 Dec 2010 17:42:13 +0000

A lot is happening on the doll front even though I've been neglectful of taking pictures lately.

» I sold Caroline (my Minifee Woosoo Vampire Elf). I fully intended to replace her with a normal skin version of the same doll (since I coveted Selene, my sister's Woosoo, who has normal skin) but instead I started seeing owner pictures of the new Minifee Chloe that just started arriving about a month ago and fell in love. So…

» I ordered a Minifee Chloe (not the full set though; I got her a la carte). You can see some really pretty owner pictures of her (the last 15). I'm hoping she'll arrive here by mid-December, but I've heard that Fairyland is kind of behind on orders right now, so she may not get here until next month. I can still hope though!

» In other Fairyland news, they are getting ready to release a new 65cm line of dolls. I've fallen for the elf girl. I think she's gorgeous! There are only preview images so far because the line is not set to launch until December 15th, but I love what I've seen of her so far. I won't make my final decision until she is for sale, but I think I've convinced my husband that I should get her for Christmas. ♥ I wonder if she'll come with the tattoo arm? That would be cool!

» Also around mid-December, Kaylee, my Minifee Shushu, will be sent away to Meggilu (you can check out a portfolio of her custom work here) to get a new face-up. I love her current one, but I thought she could use a refresh. Since I've gotten Kaylee, her personality has change a lot and she's matured from an innocent girl into a confident young lady so I want a face-up that better represents that.

» Brandee, my Limhwa Elly, came back from getting her face-up, but she fell off a shelf and ruined it so I've had to send her back. I felt like a total idiot. I hate when I ruin a face-up even if it is an accident. I feel like I destroyed a work of art, which I guess I did. It makes me nauseous just to think about.

» Tahlvin also got a new face-up by the lovely and exceptional SDink. He looks amazing! I'm still trying to find the perfect wig for him though. He's really picky!

This is getting longer than I'd planned so I'm going to split this post into two. Next post will deal with playline dolls that have sucked me in.
