I hate when that happens!

I have decided to try and update more often and also talk a bit about none doll stuff in this blog. Instead of starting a new blog I'll just change the way I use this one.

Yesteday my computer broke down. I was playing a game when all of a sudden it wasn't turned on any more. Once again I realized how difficult it is for me to do without my computer. I have a laptop - a very old and cheap laptop but I have trouble using it. The screen is way too small, the keyboard is difficult to use and I don't have anywhere I can sit comfertable when using it.

The solution to those problems is of course to hook it up with the keyboard, monitor and mouse I normally use for my desktop. Sadly I can't do that myself. Not that I wouldn't be able to figure it out. After all it's pretty straight forward but it involved going down on the floor and I can't do that because of my physical problems.

Luckely my son was able to come and set it up for me. He's such a good boy. Or man perhaps - he's 31. LOL

The hours between my computer broke down and I was on my laptop was horrible though. I didn't know what to do with myself. I couldn't Check my e-mail and talk to my friend in Sweden, I couldn't check forums or anything or look for new dolly stuff to want to buy for several hours. A true nightmare I tell you. I'm sure I have been traumatized by it! LOL

The LittleFees outdoors

I wanted to take some pictures of all my kids but it was too much to take them all. So I just took my LittleFees. I couldn't bring Penny though because she shares a body with Shilling. (And when I get her face-plate Secret)

It had been raining and it was pretty gray and it was 6.30PM when I was finally ready to take the pictures. I think they light is really pretty though. It looks so soft.

Vigdis




Tjalfe





Shilling




And another one of Shilling just because I love her in her new wig




Julliana




Ans finally all four of them together




I feel I've learned something about light in photos from this.

The family is growing

My resin family keeps growing. First I ordered a DollZone Aimi in WS. Then totally spontaniously I ordered a 5StarDoll Quitus. He turned up first. His name is Desmo - short for Desmodus Rotundus.

Desmo is an unusual vampire though. The reason he has come to live here is that the other vampires doesn't want to have anything to do with him. First of all he's a really nice and kindhearted guy and then he's allergic to blood. Poor guy. LOL Having grown up with vampires he has never learned to interact with people in a normal friendly manner so he's kind of socially akward. He is a bit introvert and he really admires Maylea. (Who really admires Tjalfe. LOL)








The next one to m ove in was Tindra - my DollZone 1/4 WS Aimi. She hasn't told me anything about her background yet. She's a quiert and soft girl. And very beautiful IMO








She seems to have become close to Senja (MiniFee modded Shushu) wich I find surprising because Senja is an alien and very unusual in some ways. Amongs other things she's like 211 years old. But look at them together!




My next doll was a Fairyland LittleFee Luna named Julliane. She grew up with her uncle and aunt. Her oncle was her mom's brother but he was 20 years older than her mom. They never really understood her - or even wanted to. They saw her as something they could show off. Her aunt loved to dress her up is lots of frilly pink stuff. The more the better. She was always told to be careful and not get her clothes dirty and she was never allowed to play with other children.

She is the only one of my dolls (so far) who's generally shy. She has totally bonded with Vigdis though. This is a wonderful thing for both of them. Oh ans she hates wearing pink and loves simple clothes in darker colours.












When Julliane arrived I also got a WS PukiFee Bonnie without face-up. Her name is Mims and she's going to be a mermaid. Her face-up is done but I'm still waiting for her tail so you won't get to see her until she's finished.

I got a new head.

I bet that would creep some (non-dolly) people out. LOL

First off a picture of my Lishe head. She still needs eyelashes and I want to fix something about her mouth. I think I can do it even though I'm not very good at face-ups. This is just a small fix.




A couple of days ago I got a shipping notise for Desmo my 5SD Quintus. I'm SO much looking forward to getting him home.

The reason Desmo is comming to live with us is that the other vampires don't want to have anything to do with him. First of all he's actually a sweet and kindhearted guy and second he's allergic to blood. Poor guy but I hope he'll be happy here. LOL

I have some really exciting news! (At least exciting for me. LOL) I got a tax refund and was able to order a WS PukiFee Bonnie and a LittleFee Luna. Bonnie is going to have a custom face-up, light orange hair and green eyes and freckles - and she'll be a mermaid. Her name is Mims.

I ordered Luna with default face-up. I'm not sure about her eyes yet but I have a Jpop wig in a beautiful golden colour that I'll proably use for her. I have some purple eyes but I think she should have gray or bluish gray eyes. I don't have a name for her either. I do know what sort of clothes she likes though. She doesn't like colours that are too light or bright. I don't expect them to be home for a long time so I'm trying not to think too much about them.

New beautiful eyes

I resently got som new eyes from Ginarolo on DOA For quite a while I have wanted to upgrade Gro's eyes. They used to be Safrin Doll acrylics but now she has beautiful glass eyes. She also got a haircut. But she says that if you liked her braids not to worry because her hair will grow out again. (As in I still have the other wig. LOL)




While I was at it I ordered some new eyes for Miripihka. I have been trying to find the right eyes for her ever since I got her. I didn't like her default eyes at all. I never succeeded - not until now that is. These are PERFECT IMO. It's just her eyes. It's such an amazing feeling when you find something and it turns out to be just perfect.








I just love this girl so much.

I also bought a MNF Lishe head at The Marketplace at DOA. It was so beautiful and I have wanted a Lishe for a long time. I only want the head though because even though I love the MNF body I want most of my girls - and guys - to be taller. So if I find a MNF head I want at The Marketplace and the price is resonable I'll get it if I can find the money.

This head is a WS and has a really nice face-up. She's going to have a DollZone body even though I'm not sure how their WS resin match the Fairyland WS resin. I'll just have to see when the head gets here.

TOF - (Twitcy Order Finger)

So I had an attac of TOF and accedently ordered a 5SD Quintus. It was a combination of him being awfully cute, free shipping and layaway that got my finger to twitch and order him. At least that's what I suspect caused it. LOL

I'm not sure yet if he'll have orange hair and eyes or green hair and green eyes. His name is going to be Desmo. It's short for Desmodus Rotundus.

I'm very excited and can't wait to get him.

Waiting again.

I have been wanting a DollZone WS Aimi for a very long time and the other day I was finally able to order her. The next day her name came to me. She's going to be Tindra which is a Swedish name and means shimmer. I think it'll be just right for her. I have had her wig and eyes for quite a while and I'm so looking forward to getting her home.

I cut Aimi's face out of a picture from the site and fused it on a photo I had of Miripihka trying out her wig. I also changed the colour of the eyes. It's far from perfect but it gives me a sense of how she'll look.





I have also ordered a dress for her from Sharon and I think it'll be beautiful. I have the fabric myself and shall send it to her. I just hope the shoes I ordered the other day will match. Keep your fingers crossed! LOL

Very sad news

This isn't doll related but I just feel I have to post about it.

Tuesday morning I got a call from my friend Jytte's oldest daughter. She told me that Jytte had died the previous day (January third) in a fire. I have know Jytte for almost 30 years and even though we didn't have much contact the last years I still loved her. She moved to another city and she didn't have internet and wasn't the type who enjoyed chit-chatting on the phone. I always felt that if we met after a minut it would be like we talked yesterday.

Jytte had a very difficult life from her early childhood and had to struggle with a lot of problems but she was a fighter. She always fought so hard to make her life better and grow as a person. And she did do a lot of growing even though it was a slow process. I always admired her for her will to work through things. It feels so unfair that bad things continued to happen to her - and in the end it killed her.

She raised three beautiful daughters and she sertainly had a huge possitive impact on my life. I hope that she can finally have the peace and happiness she truely deserves. Goodbye my dear friend, you will always be remembered.

A little one, two face-plates and a big one

I was thinking about getting either a WS PukiFee Bonnie or a WS DollZone Aimi. It was a hard choice but I finally decided on the PukiFee. Leave it up to Fairyland to completly ruin your plans though. Just before I ordered my PukiFee they came out with two new MiniFees and I just fell head over heals with the new Chloe fullset. I just HAD to have her. Apparently I wasn't the only one. After only being up for 12 hours the fullset was sold out!

I was devastated but a couple of hours later Fairyland had decided to make some more fullsets and I hurried to order right away. Phew I managed to get her.

Then while waiting for her I did something baaaad. I had a severe attack of TOF (Twitchy Order Finger) and accedently ordered a PukiFee Ante that ThinkPink had in stock. Meet Sif. (Like the Norse goddess)




She's an orphan but she tells everyone that she's actually a real princess. It's a secret of course. LOL

And things went down hill from there. before I knew it I had bought two LittleFee face-plates - A modded sleeping Rachel and a modded sleeping Shiwoo. The Shiwoo is called Penny




And her cousin is called Shilling. They think of themselves as sisters though. Their moms were identical twins and they spend their first years with their grandmother.





And then Seffia - my MNF Chloe fullset arrived. She had bright turquoise eyes and I didn't like them at all with her other colours.




I imidiately ordered some other eyes but in the meantime I tried another wig on her. I like her so much like this that I was considering keeping her that way.








Then her new eyes arrived. I really loved the colour of her default wig but it wasn't a very good quallety. It was the kind of wig that gets messy really fast. I found this Tinybear wig I bought a long time ago. It didn't work at all for the doll it was intended for but I wanted to try it on Seffia. Especially because it has the same purple colour as her outfit. Even though it doesn't look like that in the pictures because they are not taken in natural light.









I just love her like that. She's soooooo beautiful IMO.

Since last time

I'm not very good at updateing this but I try. At least I try. LOL

I finally got my Breakaway Kieron home. I tell you his body blushing is AWSOME! Take a look




Take a look at his hand! (And Ilvara's)





Getting an adult male doll when you have a bunch of females can make some problems though. You might want to think it through very carefully before doing that. I mean something like this might happen:




LOL Actually he hasn't been unfaithfull to Ilvara. I just HAD to take that picture. After Kieron was seriously wounded Ilvara took care of him and nursed him back to health and they fell in love. Here they are in the sunshine.
