Blizzard Boredom is Blythe Bonanza

























What else is there to do in 30" of snow besides play dolls, right? Well, some might beg to differ. But hey. I dug out some albums (LPs, records, vinyl) for this shoot. That's "music" to you youngsters. Bunny looked smashing for the Rolling Stones "cover" in turquoise and green while Lilly matched the Go Go's and Daisy went with The Beach Boys.

Meanwhile, Lilly, Zena and Alice (from left) put on their best Fairy Tale duds to duke it out in the Alice and Snow wars. No pun intended, even if my newest is named Alice Snow, and we have a great Snow White dress for Blythe with OMG red vinyl boots from TIB shop, and even if it won't stop snowing where I am (27.9" so far).

Daisy's MOD Mondrian-art dress is from the TIB shop along with her tights. The boots are vintage Barbie. Maggy wears a ladybug dress and "Converse" from TIB with a ladybug hat by Creative Blythe, and Lilly wears vintage Skipper in the Go Go's photo. And I thought just Superbowl Sunday would be a good Blythe day!

Finally! We Had Time to Change!






In an effort to convince me who should go to Art & Soul next week, all the girls decided to change clothes. The fashion fur was flying, and there were a few fashion crises along the way, but finally everything fell into place.
Since Lilly and Maggy went back to their rocker chick roots, I decided to leave them home because they would be noisy. Violet has to stay home because she got to go to Myrtle Beach. She's having tea here with Gwynyth, who is too new to go anywhere.
Olivia Elaia Rose is too shy to go anywhere yet, and Jolene's got too much hair to travel well.
So Zena did a good job, in Olivia's dress, of convincing me she should go. She has artsy-fartsy hair for one thing. For another, she gathered up her painter's palette, water bin, brushes, acrylics, colored pencils, charcoal pencils, and paper-crafting stuff, so I think she may be into this.
Fear not, my non-Blythe friends, I won't be the only weirdo with the Blythe. Ms. Joyce http://www.joycevance.typepad.com/ is an instructor, and she is taking a Blythe. We're going to do a little swap thingy.

Stop! You're Hurting My Eyes And My Head And...





Eeek! It's Blythe Mosaic Overload! I played around with some photos (in order: Lilly, Maggy, Zena and Violet) on Flickr's Big Huge Labs.com "Warholizer." No wonder everyone from the 70s thought everyone else was on drugs! Pop art-gotta love it! Okay, so it is a cold, rainy, dreary spring morning. And, this is what I choose to do to while away the hours. Okay, actually, it took about one minute and was good clean fun, since going outside to dig in the dirt is not good, clean fun, nor is it an option right now. Anyone can make a free mosaic, puzzle, name badge, Warholized print and more at http://www.bighugelabs.com/flickr. It's free, fun and mindless entertainment. Check it out. I Warholized myself (ouch) on my art blog http://lillysoflondonish.blogspot.com/.
