I was able to make Noelle a wig out of white tibetan lambskin. Now my girl isn't bald anymore. :-)

Meet Noelle - PukiFee Luna Box Opening

My newest arrival, Noelle, PukiFee Luna with company default faceup



She's here! She's here!



Is she behind all that newspaper??? 



All nicely bubble wrapped...



She came in a pretty pink box... My favorite color!



There she is. My newest arrival, Noelle, PKF Luna. I <3 her!

 

Noelle :: "Where am I?"
Me :: "Your new home."
Noelle :: "No more living at DDE?"
Me :: "Nope! You live in sunny So Cal now."
Noelle :: "California?"
Me :: "Yep, you're a California girl now."
Noelle :: "COOL!"



Noelle :: "Is this normal? Do we not wear clothing in California?"
Me :: " Of course we do but this is just part of your box opening photo shoot."
Noelle :: "Umm, okay... I think."



 
Me :: "See. Now you have a pretty dress on."
Noelle :: "Yes, it is a pretty dress. Who made it?"
Me :: "Well, I did."
Noelle :: "Thank you very much."
Me :: "You're welcome."
Noelle :: "But could we hold off on anymore photos until I have some hairs?"
Me :: "Okay... Unless I crochet you at hat first!"

Maya w/ Groovy Bear (courtesy of my 5yo) couldn't resist using this for my 52 weeks of Blythe photo.

I love the way this shot came out while testing the right lighting angle. Perfect for ADAW photo.

Today I made a lightboxbof sorta for indoor photoshoots because it's just tooo darned hot outside. LOL

Attempting 1st BJD Faceup

Well my daughter is ready for her Misty (BBB Ariel) to get a faceup. So I wiped the original faceup the previous owner had on her off. It just wasn't our style. My daughter said that it was "too dramatic". LOL

I really did try my hardest to get all of the color off to be best of my ability and to what supplies I had on hand. I think I may invest in some other stuff to take faceups off because what I used was VERY labor intensive. 

Anyways, I thought I would chronicle my adventures in doing faceups. I mean I will have some more little ones that will be joining my BJD family soon and while a couple will be coming with faceups there are quite a bit that will not. I've gone back and forth with whether I should learn how to do them or not for quite sometime now and I've figured I might as well learn how to at least do a simple (natural) face up. :-)

New Girls Arriving Soon!

I'm so excited because I have some new BJDs arriving within the next couple days to a few weeks (overseas shipping), I'll have my PukiFee Luna, Pukipuki Cupid and Lati Yellow Xmas Elf ver Coco finally home!? All their layaways are all paid in full. Now my Tallulah will have some new sisters to hang out with. I haven't chosen any names for them yet because I want to see what their personalities are first. I still have my Lati White Sp Kong and RS Rong to pay for but it feels good to only have 2 outstanding layaways than MANY!

On a sadder note, no Middie Blythe for me. It appears my Middie Melo Melo Mew was shipped to another buyer by the seller and while the seller has stated they would send me a new one. Plus I've been hearing a lot of horror stories regarding quality control surrounding this Middie that I've just asked for a refund. I've since lost my interest in her and will wait for the pink haired Middie in October.
I'll just enjoy all my current girls PLUS the ones arriving soon. I need to get sewing on there "Welcome Home" outfits! :-)
