Introducing Edyt and Bijoux!

First up we have Edyt, a whispy banged brunette Kenner, wearing the Anne dress from Godesia's Bronte Collection. Edyt is also wearing a pair of highly coveted red scalloped mary jane's by Barbie. Soooooo perfect for this outfit, I must say.

Next, I'm delighted to introduce Bijoux, a customized Pullip Stica (type 3 pullip) wearing a Godesia sundress. Bijoux's and Edyt's mommy, Melissa, did all the custom work herself. New hair, eyes and faceup. We LOVE those rhinestones around the left eye! Check out Mel's Flickr pages for more Blythly delights; http://www.flickr.com/photos/cybermelli/

Thanks so much Mel! Edyt and Bijoux are heavenly!!!

Hurricane Fay!

Yikes! It's hurricane season and we're having our first one today. It just got very windy and icky out. I had to pull all my orchids and plant pots in yesterday and put in hurricane supplies. Hopefully it won't affect my schedule too much. I lost a couple days preparing for all the madness and the post office will be closed for the next 2 days, so shipping will happen at the end of the week or Monday. My house is a wreck with all the plants in it and the cat overturned a pot last night. Sigh..... I'll get over it.... Fay doesn't seem intent on complete destruction.

The Viola

New for the shop! This long sleeved day dress is perfect for a casual afternoon tea or a walk in the garden. Think Scottish moors and misty romantic buggy rides. Oh so gothic novel of us, we know, but we couldn't resist! The whistful dreams of times past have us in their grip....

It's 100% cotton, with a fully lined hand-finished bodice and a 2 snap closure in the back. Finished seams. The palest pink ric-rak and ribbon accent the bold black and white. Silver metal buckle and two tiny pink bottons complete this ensemble.

I will probably drop this into the shop, without fanfare, later today.

Introducing Mochi, the Wonder Frog!

I'm delighted to bring you yet another FAB Wonder Frog! Mochi is wearing a babydoll sundress top by Godesia and a pair of coveted Re-Ment froggy boots! We're very jealous over these booties, I tell you. Mochi's mommy, Diana, has a delightful collection of dolls and a wonderful Flickr stream to prove it. Check out all her dolly adventures here; http://www.flickr.com/photos/robotsformagnolia/

Thanks so much Diana, we just love Mochi! (and those booties!)

Introducing Brigitta!

I'm delighted to introduce Brigitta, who is wearing a sundress by Godesia. The darling Miss Brigitta is a vintage Kenner Blythe who has been lovingly restored and customized by her daddy, Olli. Olli lives in London and has the most FAB collection of dolls, many of whom he has customized. Check out his dolly wizardry; http://www.flickr.com/photos/retrozuk/

Thanks so much Olli, for sharing Brigitta with us!

My two new ADOPTED kitties!

Please give a warm welcome to my two new darling Kitties, Sweet Scarlet and Meowmin! Their sweet mommy, Michelle, found them to be too demanding and needed them to go to a new home. I gratefully obliged! Check out Michelle's Flickr pages for more Dolly goodness; http://www.flickr.com/photos/theresidentmuse/

Thanks so much Michelle! I promise to take good care of them always....

Godesia goes Momoko!

I'm pleased to introduce Jade (on the right), a momoko Marrons Glaces and her unnamed 'mystery' sister, a Petworks momoko 03RD. The delightful Miss Jade is wearing a reversible dress by Godesia, and Miss Mystery is sporting a darling number by Miss_Takers! Their mommy, Mercedes has a wonderful collection of dolls and an equally sublime collection of photos to prove it. Take a look at her Flickr page for sweet dolly delights; http://www.flickr.com/photos/madrizmemata/

Thanks so much Mercedes! Your Momoko's rock!!!

Folkloria dresses on sale TONIGHT, Fri. Aug. 8th, 8:00pm EST!

I'll begin loading these dresses up on my etsy.com site at 8:00 pm EST tonight! Both dress will cost $34.50 and I'll be offering 6 of each to start. I have more fabric on order, so if you want a dress and they're sold out, convo me through etsy or send me a FlickrMail about it. These dresses will go into production about a week from now, so there will be a 2 week wait to get the first batch in the mail. Thanks for your patience!

Folkloria dresses!

On the left we have 'Little Red Riding Hood' and on the right, 'Saru-Kani Kassen'. Saru-Kani Kassen is a Japanese folk tale that encourages children to behave. The monkey is the naughty one in this story and he gets his comeuppance in the end. We all know what happens to Miss Red Hood.....!

These 2 dresses will go up in the shop tomorrow afternoon. They are fully lined, but have open fray-checked seams inside. Two snaps close the dress in the back. I will be offering 6 of each design to begin with and have some more of these fabrics on order. Since I'm still working on previous orders, I will begin making these dresses in about a week. Thanks so much for your patience!

Introducing Hermione! (the Wonder Frog!)

I'm delighted to introduce Hermione, a Wonder Frog, wearing a crocheted thistle flower top by Godesia. Hermione's sister, Aubrey, has claimed a few Godesia pieces as well. Their mommy, Jill, takes the most adorable photos and tells sweet stories about them. A must read (and see) for all Blythe devotees! Take a look at her Flickr pages for utter dolly divinity: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jillybug/page26/

Thanks so much Jill, for sharing your sweet dollies with us!

In production!

Here's a quick peek at some of the dresses currently in production! I have about 8 orders left to fill to get caught up. I hope to introduce 2 new dresses in a week or so, with a fairy tale theme. Fingers crossed on the time frame. Things always take longer that I anticipate....
