Dolly Secret

On the 11th if this month, I won an ebay bid for perhaps the only BL Blythe doll I may ever own. I have mentioned my love for BL Goldie often. I love her crazy vibrant orange eyes and her perpetually kooky animated look. I mean I could probably photograph her for days and never be bored. I'm happy every time I see one but they are astronomically expensive and even if I could afford it, personally, I just couldn't justify it. Maybe if I was rich. But I'm not.

The other BL that I have come to adore is Hollywood BL. Her pale make-up, her wide boggled eyes and gold front facing chips have fascinated me quietly for months. I think having seen shershe transform a few with her amazing re-roots really sold me. I just really needed to get my hands on that mold to see what she's made of. And so last week on ebay, I quietly bid in the final seconds on a Hollywood I'd been watching for several days. She was just within my price range AAAAAAAAND she's here in the US so I won't be waiting forever for her to arrive. She could be here as soon as next week! So perhaps her and my newly customed Punkaholic,Hamsa will arrive at the same time! I can barely stand javascript:void(0)it!!

I also have the design for a new AA Blybe in my mind so I went ahead and ordered a new Blybe from Bankok on ebay as well but I made certain she didn't have that awful CCE body. I'm desperate to experiment with a matte tone of vinyl spray paint which should give the doll a very different look. I'm interested to see how a matte finish will interact with light in photographs.

OK, Hamsa just arrived in my office just this minute!!!! LOL!!! Of course she had help from the postal carrier!!!! EEEEEE!!!!! More later!!!

Ramona's Eye Chips

Three sets of Ramona's eye-chips are already selected, but for the last pair I wanted to try something a little more daring. But her new mommy has to have final approval.

There are two choices for  the last set. One is a set that has two butterflies. The other has like a bunch of butterflies and sparkles. They are definitely more abstract than regular eye chips and they kind of freaked me out initially. I got them last year along with a set that I had ordered for Reya. I never dreamed that I would ever consider using them. But now I really like them.

She's almost done! This is it! All she needs are her new eyelashes and I can pack her off to her new home! Thank God she lives nearby. LOL!

Retraction

I take back everything I said in the Cons section I wrote about the arrival of Ramona Rae, my newest Blythe Doll clone. I was just on ebay checking out other Blybes (ahem!) and basically every one I click on is being sold bt the same seller. The description below is listed in large letters on the description of each one. So in all honesty, I knew what I was getting and just forgot all about this description.


"For sale is brand new Blybe / Basaak color changing eyes doll. She stands 12” tall. She is medium quality doll. Her eyes change colors with the pull of a sting attached to the back of her head . She can move her arms & legs & head. She can twist & turn her waist. She is wearing hand made outfit made by my freind. She comes with doll stand, her two original outfits, and a pair of ballet shoes. Her 2 extra outfits are not showed in the listing but they will be included in the box. 

To be honest, most Blybe & Bassak dolls I have received from all sources recently are shaky on their feet. Her hip joints are loose and that makes her wobble. But this problem is quicky fixed when rubber bands are put around her hip joints. I will have this done when I ship her. I will also put cute panties on her so the rubber bands do not show."

The seller really was great, keeping me and three other unfortunates whose Blybes went temporarily wayward updated on anything they happened to hear or get in writing from the post office. So cheers! I sure hope that doesn't happen again because I think I want another one!
