Its been too long

Hana and Mei came with us on holiday and enjoyed visiting the beach (although Mei had a slight mishap when one of her eyechips fell out inside her head!). I think they enjoyed themselves like we did :)

Punkaholic People is released on Friday! Its been soooo long waiting. I've pre-ordered from HLJ and entered the Junie Moon lottery, so we'll see what happens.

In the mean time I have done the unbelievable - fallen for Dals. Its funny really, as until I recently I hated them, but Martha and Erica have both got Dal's recently, and they just crept up on me. The one I really want is Cinamoroll <3 So far I've been obsessed with her for 3 days. I won't be able to resist much longer. I even considered cancelling Punk to get her, shock horror.

Mei on the hills, and new chippies

Have to admit, I'd been neglecting Mei recently - she'd been standing at the back of my doll shelf, with her hair hanging over her beautiful face. I'd even considered selling her!!!!! So I decided I needed to do more with her. I dressed her in jeans and a t-shirt, and put her hair in a ponytail - straight away you could see her beautiful face, and I remembered why I love her so much. She was my first Neo Blythe, and she'll always have a special place in my life. I had some difficult moments the first few weeks she was here, and stroking her hair and playing with her kept me calm and helped me through.

The next day was a rare for at the moment dry day, so Ruth, Alex and I took Mei for a walk on the hills. We went to one of my favourite places, Earnslaw Quarry, and had fun taking lots photos. Cue me loving Mei even more.
I decided I just needed to spend more time doing stuff with her, and remembered how changing her 1st pairs of eye chips had really made us bond. I'd gone off those chips now anyway, so carefully chose some new ones for her. They arrived today, so a trip to the dolly spa was in order. I decided to try changing Sakura's side facing milky pink ones at the same time. I used the glue stick method, and for once both pairs came out on the first attempt. Very pleased :) Mei got some pretty and subtle lilac Brainworm chips, and Sakura got some gorgeous teal Brainworm ones which match her eye makeup.
Pretty sisters :)
Mei's lilac chips.
Sakura's teal ones.

One piece of bad news today though - Satsuki (my perfect wouldn't change a hair/eyechip on her head BWT) has chipped lipstick. So gutted. Better photos on Flickr. Trouble is that now I've noticed it, its all I can see when I look at her. But the terrible leg stains she had from some evil tights have completely disappeared with no treatment at all! Its taken a month, but she's gone from looking like the victim of some awful domestic violence incident to being almost pristine :)

I got some new lens attachments for my 50mm lens, hence the overload of macro photos - love this lens, and love macro photography, and now I an combine the 2!

Been busy :)

On Thursday my wonderful and super-talented friend Kirsty came to visit and took me for a Trash the Dress photo shoot. We had so much fun - even though it pured with rain for 1/2 an hour and I got all muddy! For more photos of me, see her blog (click on her name above). She let me take Satsuki with me :)
The photos she took are so amazing ( as was the fact I could still fit in my dress over a year after my wedding LOL).
On Friday I changed Sakura's eyelashes. I love her new ones - they're exactly how I wanted them to be.
On Saturday we went to the Festival of History at Kelmarsh House in Northamptonshire. I took Sakura along for the adventure. There were some cool photo ops, and we got some funnny looks from the re-enactors :)


I love how she looks in the tee-shirt and (Bratz) jeans - so cool! I usually dress her in pretty dresses with her hair down, so it was great to see a bit more of her personality appearing. Love this girl :)

Tokyo is sold!

She's going to live with the lovely Maggie in the US :) So happy she'll be loved and appreciated.

PD Tokyo

Extortion!

Such pretty eyes, calling to me not to sell her :( But I need the money, especially after the customs charge, and another massive financial issue which we discovered today.

Need at least £200 + shipping - but will have to list for more if she goes to Ebay to cover the charges. Might have someone interested (would love her to go to a friend :) ), but let me know if you're interested, and I'll let you know if she becomes available again.

Nature Walk

Hana and I took a nature walk this morning to recce for the Trash the Dress shoot. Here are some of the results :)

New Glasses :)

Yay! Love Hana's new purple (of course!) glasses. Well she couldn't be a mini me without glasses could she?!
Love how her hair looks here too :)

Happy happy happy.



I've almost completely decided to sell Primadolly Tokyo once she arrives. If I have to put her on Ebay it'll be £225 + postage to cover fees, or £200 + postage if I sell her through here, Flickr or Plastic Paradise. Paypal only :) Leave me a comment or message/email me if you're interested. I have 100% feedback on Ebay and Etsy :)
