"Well SOMEONE has to control her!"

I've always said Macchiato was a handful and I'm regular sized! I'm loving Artemis's new wig and since this pic was taken I've been able to trim the wig a little better (the bangs are always too long for Littlefee as far as Leeke wigs go).

I'm trying to bevel poor Macchi's eyes so her new Ginarolo eyes fit better (Violet Night) but it's really hard and it seems like my bevel might actually be too small! I am thinking of getting a 10mm bevel and I'd like to have a 14mm one on hand in all honesty.

I got my Roko and Kumi dolls so I'll have to post photos of them after I take them!

Wow I forgot I had this

Readers...I'm so sorry! I totally forgot I had a dolly blog and every time I resolve to stay updated I forget!

After having the same dolly family for a while now, I've decided to make a change. I'm going to give a Bambicrony a shot. I usually stick with Fairyland for their amazing posability but they don't make a Yo sized doll in tan which, until recently, Bambicrony did.

I placed an order for an Ozzy's Roko in early December and I'd been hearing reports of BC tan dolls being messed up, and that's why they stopped production. I was tossed between Roko and Kumi (my first Ozzy's love) but I'd seen Kumis so I decided to go with something different. I got the Roko with the little vampire fangs and I was concerned because it's so different from my normal asthetic but I think it'll be alright.

Yoon said my Roko should ship the end of February but BC tends to promise dolls and not deliver. Then I saw a fangless Kumi on the DoA marketplace (I prefer her sans fangs) so I decided to get her. I had to sell Carleigh to do it but ever since she'd come back from her faceup with Leah Lily her character was going in a direction I didn't really like. She'd become older and more mature and I like my Pukifees to be little kids. I will get another one eventually but as most people would guess it would most likely be CUPID!

Nuri got her makeover over the summer and she got restored fully as a Garden of Dolls PpoPpo by Buff along with a more natural faceup. I also changed her wig into a auburnish curly one from Ruby Red which suits her nicely.

Love her hat!

Carleigh's New Face!

I still have Artemis and Macchiato. Artemis is exactly the same as she always was except she now has a sleeping plate. Macchiato is her same hyper-caffinated self but Fairyland has a new braided wig I'm bugging them to try to get in black :) I'll have to update when the Ozzy dolls get here...I can only afford to keep one so stay tuned as to which one I pick!

Dolls of Course!

Sorry for another prolonged absence...school has started for me again and my health is starting to decline again now that I'm back in school...and I had a car accident that left me with a head/neck injury.

My dolls have been the same. I'm trying not to get any more dolls but the Puki Ante just has me smitten so I might get her later on but Macchiato really prefers not to share her room :)

Artemis has a sleeping plate now; I don't remember if I posted that before but if you want to see her sleeping with my dad's Dachshund, Oscar, hop over to my flickr (www.flickr.com/photos/reinedelaseine14) to see them! I've also gone a little nuts getting clothes for her and right now she's the girl I'm focusing the most on.

Carleigh's finally gotten into her spot with Leah Lilly after a very long wait. She should be back here in a few weeks and I'll have to remember to post photos of her new faceup. I was toying with the idea of scrapping her and getting a Cupid because let's face it...I'M CUPID CRAZY!!!!

I still have Nuri of course...she actually just got a new hat I need to take pics of. I had gotten a grab bag of stuff from eightl0ngmonths and there was a beret that had purple stars and skulls on it...PERFECT for Nuri! I haven't taken it off of her since.

I am taking jewelry commissions again...I'm working on a piece for DraconicMaiden but ti's tough because I don't have a Minifee anymore. I'm going off of neck measurements and kind of gauging how things look on Artemis. Might ask my parents for a Bobobie or a Resinsoul for Christmas...something not expensive but a sculpt I still like. I might not bother though because my Littlefee is helpful in determining some sort of scale.

I got a call so I lost my train of thought...let's end with some piccies shall we?

This is a necklace I made that is a tiny photo frame!

Macchiato's been into playing Pokemon HeartGold lately...guess who her favorite Pokemon is!

Flickr Rant

I can't believe it...Flickr's been doing a photo preview for a new layout which I turned off but it's now public. The new layout's to stay. Which sucks because not only can I not view a photo without having to move my screen around I now can't get the image URL.

Flickr's rules say I have to link back to the photo. DoA's rules say I can't. Yet...I and many of my doll friends use Flickr to share our photos. What a mess!

So I might have to go back to Photobucket for image hosting...but I HATE PB with a passion now since there's all the adds, the spam, and the adware that I didn't have to contend with three years ago when I joined. Plus...I PAY to use Flickr.

Even more, I use enlarged fonts on my computer due to a vision impairment and PB's site layout distorts everything and causes it to all overlap on each other on the page.

What to do????? I don't know if I should try ImageShack or Snapfish or something...

RAWR.

What do you do with a problem like Carleigh?

I'm freaking out...mostly because this is really really odd and I'm not sure why this is happening.

Carleigh is one of my three favorite dolls: all Fairyland girls, all different tiny sizes, all easy to clothe and prop. But for some reason I got BORED with her...which I don't understand at all.

I've been paying more attention to Artemis and Macchiato of course always soaks it up and Nuri's just...Nuri but I stopped playing with her completely. I gave her a bath today and cleaned out the crap stuck in her joints hoping it would help us bond again. It didn't work. I saw an outfit and my first reaction was that she HAD to have it but I just couldn't click "buy". I then began looking at Littlefee clothes.

I'm hoping this is temporary...I'm hoping I can fix this with a wig change or something. I considered trying a different faceplate but the only PKF Cupid I found didn't have a faceup (can't do one now b/c of the heat). For now she's sitting on top of my jewelry chest looking sad in the glasses she hates more than she hates spinach.

She needs to find her charm again. :(

"Look at me; I'm cute!"
