Ive just been having a really good time with my friend stella. Shes much older than me, quite a deal older than my husband but shes really awesome for a number of reasons. The main one being that she makes dolls. I spoke to her a couple of days ago asking her if i could pick her brains over how to make doll furniture for my doll story is about to get really complicated and i need to start making props and a proper space to take pictures from. She showed me all the dolls she had made and how organised she had to be to keep everything tidy and sorted. Im going to have to do that too. But i showed her holly and she fell in love. So i think shes going to end up with a pullip or two.
But it was nice speaking to someone passionate about dolls too. I guess it must be like my husband with me when he talks about trains. I listen to him and I understand what he says but I dont get it in the same way as if he had the same conversation with his train friends. so its nice to have someone living less than 5 minutes walk away who can give me hints and tips. She also makes dolls houses and she showed me her dolls houses and they were stunning. one had a little green grocers shop with a seamstress shop upstairs with a little push pedal sewing machine that actually worked but it couldnt have been more than 3 inches high. So intricate so perfectly detailed im in love.
Im trading in some of my home made stuff along with some of the clothing I dont want for a new doll. It feels good getting stuff i want by trading stuff i dont want or have made. It makes it feel like ive earned it. Do you want to see my new girl, or at least what she could eventually end up looking like. I dont have the outfit and her current eyes are purple and she has no hair yet

Teeny huh. Im not getting her with any clothes or wigs or anything and I really want blue eyes for her teeny tiny 6mm eyes thats not even a centimetre big. I dont know what her name is yet. Heres a picture of what she could potentially look like. Warning though I know youve seen cute stuff on this site before but this may be cuteness overload. I think though shes going to be the smallest of all my dolls I think shes going to end up with the biggest attitude. Shes a vampire dontcha know so whilst she looks like a little girl shes actually been round a really long time so knows heaps. least thats how i see her but she may be completely different by the time she gets to me.
ARRRGH I have to be patient now. hows a girl supposed to be patient like this. Its driving me mad
