Cat's Dolls

Her look is adorable.

Alice has been dying to show off her Christmas outfit and it finally snowed AND I got a chance to sneak outside and take some pictures! Merry Christmas.

Well... Alice seems to be enjoying the snow!

Is that a farm setting you were at for this photo session?

I love outdoor dolly photos. Her dress is great, a nice alternative to the usual red and green.

I've always really hated the colour pink so she has been a good doll for helping me find some love for the colour pink and finding my sweeter softer girly side. I sewed the dress the hat and the cape. The pictures were taken at my parents house, its a lovely place for outdoor photos. But I do miss the time to set up proper outdoor photos as everything always feels rushed these days. I wanted to get some pictures of her at the Christmas party today but unfortunately her obitsu had come apart at the torso in transport and I didn't get a chance to fix it. Ah well c'est la vie.

those obitsus!

Alice is very pretty, and your little ragged girl is cute too. My answer to "no sew" outfits is Tacky Glue!!
Good luck with the move.

Thank you All.
The new sew was really easy I just tied the scraps round some elastic to make the skirt and then cut a hole big enough for her body to slip through the apron and then tied a ribbon round her waist, quick easy and no glue.

The new girl is very shy, all I have managed to yet out of her so far is that he name is Violet. She had found a quiet corner on top of the cabinet to watch all the festivities, Luna has offered to stand guard which seems to have made Violet happy. Her quiet shy aura is very relaxing even Luna has stopped rhyming for awhile.

P.s. we successfully moved house its beautiful here compared to where we were and had a happy Christmas. Hope you all did too!
Still no internet so my participation will be sporadic!
Merry Christmas!

Ooh, I want more photos. Congrats on the move!

Congratulations on the successful move! Good to know you are getting settled in over the holidays! You'll be starting the New Year off right, it sounds like!

Congrats on the move and the new arrival!

Thank you all and Happy New year!
Violet has slowly been coming out of her shell, she has been whispering away to Luna and I think I even heard some giggling.

Whispering... and giggling?

Sounds to me like they are planning mischief to get up to when The Big People are asleep or away.

No doubt plotting mischief

Violet got her first photoshoot and I finally have a proper camera, so I am not relying on the rubbish one on my phone. She has made friends with a little purple turtle who she has named George.

Aw, so sweet. That last photo is super cute.

Ooh, I like her shoes!

Fun expression in that final photo!

Congratulations on getting a Not-Phone camera!

Yeah, she's cute peeking over the chair.
Yay for a new camera -- hope you'll enjoy using it.

Thank you all. Proper equipment certainly makes the difference.

My new years resolution is to fix up all my dolls, one by one and spend a bit of quality time with them when they are finished. Lily was first up, she didn't actually need much done, except for the mess of glue and paint on her eye mechanism. I plan on writing a blog at some point on all the various fix em ups but for now here are some photos. Lily was my first ever pullip, she started life as Xiao fan, but had been customized by Red Bean customs.

She looks like a girl with an attitude!

Nice pose in the last pic, realistically relaxed, which is not always easy to achieve with Pullips.

She's very pretty.  Agree about the natural-looking poses.
Love the wig.  Wish I could find another like it to replace the one that Daesani had before the Unfortunate Incident With The Fire.

Alliecat- I have a few wine red wigs, when I get round to going threw the box again I will have a look and let you know if there is anything similar that could use rehomed.
