Tribute to Anja

One of my all time favourite people Anja passed away just recently. For those in the doll community, you probably knew her as D.ark. She was a lovely person with a weakness for anything Unoa, and generosity  was one of her many unique traits. D.ark was incredibly funny, and I will miss her very much.

I had the chance to own one of her dolls and jumped at the chance. D.ark had a very similar taste in dolls to myself, so I picked a Limhwa to you Sara that she had in her collection. Well the little doll arrived last week and I called her Dusk after Anja's online name. So may I present Dusk

There are not many dolls that get me excited and I have to have them....A doll really has to pull at me in order to bring her home. They have to be extra special and have that X factor....

In the news section on DOA I noticed a new artist who i have never seen before, and her work just blew me away....It is such a shame that I missed the pre-order for this one, but I will be keeping my eye out...

The artist in question is called Marmite Sue and her work is imaginative graceful and so different.....Marmite Sue describes herself as a Doll Artist and lists some of her favourite things as Alice In Wonderland, painting, dolls, fashion and cats...Some of her creations are made of porcelain, and some from resin. Marmite Sue's resin creations are just exquisite....I love the lace pattern on the sternum, and the lace inserts at the top of the thighs how inspired! Look at the back all the way down, just like  "Skin" corset lacing...These dolls are just so different they appeal to me so much, as a lot of dolls on the market are so bland and blur into one. It's so exciting to see different dolls coming into the marketplace from doll artisans, will i ever have enough money lol! It would be a crime to put clothes on all that beautiful work...This doll just looks like a beautiful 

Parisienne Figurine 

Have a look at the exquisite corseting and lacing actually cut into the resin

So feminine and so unique

Look at the lacing and those high heeled feet!

So gorgeous and so graceful ! just like a gazelle

Yuli is my favourite...Such a beautiful face and those lips!

The dolls come in 2 choices..with a spring system for ultimate posing or with elastic.

The dolls also come with eyes and 2 pairs of feet, 1 pair high heeled and 1 normal pair.

I just want to say...can't wait for my birthday!

Unoa Lusis

I lost my beloved cat Summer in March, she was 15 years old and i miss her so much....So I decided I wanted to have a doll in her memory....I have just loved Unoa's for as long as I can remember especially Lusis, so I buckled down and saved for one....There were no pre-orders for Unoa's at the time so I went for a hybrid...I chose a Souldoll Kid body and the body came through last week...The body is just perfect for her and she is such a fitting tribute to my little "Summer Pudding" who has left a big hole in our lives...So here is my little Unoa Lusis now named "Summer Pudding" in honour of our little girl with faceup by myself.

Eyes by myself ( Blissfully Blue)

Pretty little Minifee

Meet my new little Minifee Chloe Rory....She came up unexpectedly on that well know auction site...I couldn't believe she was just suddenly there..The seller had put her on 5 minutes before, so for me it was right place right time...She is called Rory after  Lorelai's daughter in the Gilmore girls...I am a huge geek of a fan and have always loved the show...So here she is my little Rory
Faceup default Fairyland... Eyes by Myself (Opulent Opal)

Back after a bad start to the year

So I have been off again dealing with life as we all do....As they say or I do " Life gets in the way of things you plan to do "
We lost our beautiful 15 year old cat Summer, we think she just went through old age...Summer went to sleep and she never woke up...Bless you my little darling we miss you every day...

The side of our house developed a gaping hole due to faulty guttering...We had to have all the facias replaced both front and back so that was nice...Still have to have the roof felt replaced if we don't want damp bedrooms!

On a lighter note my Doll In Mind MSD Luria arrived..what a cutie! i am so pleased with her and she poses like a dream...I have called her Poe

Naked!
