Hendrix is on her way back from the Melly Kay Spa



I can never even bring myself to mention when I've sent any of the MK girls back to her for face work. Eve, Hamsa and Hendrix are the three girls of mine she has worked on and I adore them to pieces but Hendrix holds a special place in my heart because she was a gift from Melly Kay herself and I treasure her so much. She's a magical little thing and although I had noticed for some time now that she had a few scratched and paint on her lips that were coming off, I just didn't know if I could deal with sending her off and not having her around. But I had to. I didn't want her changed too much, just some patching up and sealing.

As always, Melly did an amazing job on her. I mean she looks fresh as a peach and still with that curious and playful look in her eyes that I adore. She should be home again by the end of the week.
YAAY!!

Monster High Releases and Curly Blue Babe

Is it just me or does Mattel officially put out more releases of Monster High than I can keep up with? Every time I look around there's a new one. I bought Catrine De Mew Scaremester months ago and have barely had time to look at her because then I had to get a couple of "Create a Monster" dolls and most recently, Freaky Fusion Clawvenus! I had to! It's true I can blame it on amazing flickr doll photographers who make the new releases look even more amazing and tempting than they do on the shelves of Toys R Us but to be honest Mattel has been cranking out so many beautifully beastie releases of Monster High Dolls that there are some I had never even been aware of. "Student Disembody" a new release of "I love Fashion" and now they have these brilliant "Inner Monster" add on sets. Who can keep up? I already have at least four girls and maybe one more guy on my wishlist. It's kind of crazy in the bedroom right now. I had no idea I liked Monster High so much. But I do. They just keep getting more diverse, funky and creative and I'm all about that. 

I'm still trying to get rid of my "Picture Day" Abbey Abominable though. Never really gelled with her very well. I also sold off my Roller Skate Lagoona about a year ago. So I do have some discipline. LOL!

Now onto matters of Blythe.
"Curly Blue Babe"


It's not like I'm flipping out over "Curly Blue Babe" for any other reason than the fact that she is translucent. I've never had a translucent girl before and I just adore them so I hope I will get a chance to get her. When I heard about her on CCToys FB page, international pre-orders were already sold out! But she's not due for release until October. I hope this means U.S. gets a chance. Her hairs looks fun too but for me her selling point is the trans mold. So I guess We'll see.
