Getting Ready for BCNY

I'm excited about going to BlytheCon on Sunday! My husband and I will travel there and back (we live in Virginia) all in one day, so it will be a loooong day, but a fun one.

I'm getting ready by making pin-back buttons to give to people I meet there.

I'm going to package these with my business card and a 10% off coupon to my Etsy store.

If you see me, say hello so I can give you a button and a coupon! I will have my doll Candy with me. Here's what we look like:

I hope to see you there!

Mustache!

I don't know why I think these mustache panties are so funny, but I do!!!!  This is a new design that I made for my most recent batch of dolly panties for my etsy store (Blythe Happy).  I'm so happy with how well they are all selling.

New Doll

Heidi got a new doll!

A New Doll for a Doll

I was in a Blythe swap a few months ago (we swapped stuff for our dolls, not the dolls themselves!) and for my partner I sewed a dress, then took a picture of one of my dolls in the dress, then turned the picture into a doll. The picture below shows the doll and the dress I sent in the swap:

I kept thinking about that mini-Blythe doll and wishing I had made one for myself...so I looked in my sewing room and discovered that I still had a little bit of the fabric--just enough for one dress--yippee! I also discovered that I still had the original pictures on my computer, so I made another mini-Blythe. The picture below shows my doll Penny with the new dress and the second mini-Blythe. I think the mini doll came out smaller the second time around.  I'm so happy with this set, and Penny is happy with her mini-me!

Old-Fashioned Patience and Non-Posionous Ivy

Yesterday's post worked out just fine, I'm happy to report! Blogging from my iPhone is surprisingly easy. Thank you Jessica for your comment--I will try the trick of doing a slight crop and then saving the pictures to  make sure they are right-side up.

Last week I found two good deals on dolls I had been eyeing for a while.  First came Patience (Veronica Lace):

...and then came--turn around, girl!

Ivy! Ivy is a Prima Dolly Amaryllis.  Their styles couldn't be more different, and I love them both.

Experimental Post from my Phone

 Here's my first attempt at blogging from my phone! My biggest worry is that the picture will be sideways...but I'm willing to take a chance! 

This is my dolly house as it looks today. I've added an attic closet, which the middies seem to think is really a playhouse for them! I don't know how they got that sofa up there.
