1/12th Dollhouse: 2005 Archives

cutest. picture. ever. the end.

Oh, alright. There's more.

Another Global "Bleuette" outfit! I really like this one too, and I think it is even a better fit. The wig, a wee Global mohair wig is too small! *cry* It is being held on by just the cap. Still so cute. Will see if there is some way to mangle it so it fits.

Props by American Girl. They are rad! The detail is super fab. However, with moving parts and so much detail, things like the camera will break easily so be careful. Also got the night stand and wash set! A little short for SD, still makes a good prop.

Demelza had to try her hand with the stereoscope...

The detail, again, is gorgeous. Brown velvet rim around the mask, punched designs in metal mask casing, all wood parts. The metal is soft, so you have to be careful not to snap off the moving handle. It comes with stereoview cards of national monuments!

Momo, my Peach Lady Momoko. Looks fantash in the Calendar Girl Rune Fashion outfit... I knew I was saving it for someone special. Eeeee!

I love her. She's had a slight hair relaxing and bang trim, all tamed beneath a strawberry patterned scarf.

There's nothin' like a new pair of boots from Dollheart.com to use an excuse for a new photoshoot. Dreamy! Ondine wears her new brown ribbon boots with the dress from Volks made for Anais II. The wig is another one of Volks' brilliant new wigs, in a wavey auburn (Volks calls it "copper" but they lie). Again, I am totally in love with the new Volks wigs, they are gorgeous. The texture is soft and lively, very sauvage. I'd definately buy this in other colors. Mmmmm.

More? Of course, and another thrown in of Ondine in her "Romance of London" outfit, which she was loathe to change out of.

The loverly Fifi Mahony in the outfit by Imai I got from Aimee. Eeeeeee! And this wig. Volks W-02 in BLACK. I'd been trying to get it for AGES. Such gorgeous texture, heavy and swingy. Lurve it muchly.

But wait! What is this? Mr. Kallisti rides again! [queue Bonanza theme]

It's a large BJD photo stage! Collapsible (if a bit heavy), stores flat, and tres easy for scene changes!

It is just a large piece of plywood. A bit on the heavy side because we happened to have a large piece of thick plywood on hand. It has a lip around the backend to keep the walls from sliding off the back. The back L shaped wall is hinged at the corner, and then upholstered with cream colored felt. The bottom is covered with dark brown felt to keep it from scratching the 1925 Victrola Granada Phonograph the whole contraption is resting on. And the floor is a thin piece of black board covered with checkered shelf paper. This can be changed at will. The back is then covered with random fabric, in this case muslin on the back wall and mauve velvet on the side. The set dressings are hung on push pins with the plastic bit ripped off so the fabric can be changed and stuff rehung with ease. It all folds up and tucks behind a large desk, or can stay out as a permanent doll room. Which it is likely to in this case.

I married a genius. And a very understanding man.
