The girlz welcome Alice Snow

From the top, girls! Daisy, Bunny, Zena and Lilly put on their new bestest outfits (we had a little spree on Plastic Paradise and TIB) to welcome Alice Snow (bottom). Isn't she sweet? She has lovely clear eyes in shades of grey, green and blue as well as dark and vibrant purple. I love her little poof of white mohair. She was adopted from supervelma on TIB/a.k.a. rollerderbysinner on Flickr. Love that name!

Daisy and Zena are modeling new acquisitions from Gina Garan's TIB shop, while Bunny and Lilly have "used" duds (sssshhhh! don't tell them) from PP. Used, but divine nonetheless. And it's not like the previous owners wore them to work or anything, nor out in the muddy bog. So, it's all good! Repurposing and resaling at its tiny best.

My Blythe Obsession

My love affair with Blythe only recently begun, having cluelessly missed them during their debuts in 1972 and 2000. I think I first spotted them on Flickr and then quickly made the leap to the This is Blythe forum. Blythes of course made their meteoric rise thanks to the supremely talented Gina Garan and her incredible photographic skills and love for Blythe. Her books and photos are total eye candy.

I started out with Lilly London, a Star Dancer from Tokyo; Maggy, an ADG Princess Parfait brunette from Illinois and Zena, a custom and a surprise gift from a wonderful person. I had some others; then I sold some. Now the bug is back, and I have a few customs as you can see above. The count is getting perilously close to filling Blythe Manor II, my 12-room Blythe size 1:6 Mod-ish dollhouse. I had one of those before recently, and sold everything. I also had a childhood 1:12 metal dollhouse with Petite Princess furniture, which I pitched. Ack.

But for now, all these girlz really like to do is shop, change clothes, get their hair and nails done, get their pictures taken, pour over Flickr Blythe groups and Blythe blogs and websites. They talk on their cell a lot, but they do keep their room pretty clean. Occasionally, they do art and cook. Oh yeah, and shop on ebay and look for Re-ment. We hang out on Plastic Paradise, too. It's a doll's life!
