Summertime

On a quintessential summer day, everyone feels happy to be alive.

This Blythe doll is Simply Sparkly Spark, posing for “Quintessential” (representing the most perfect or typical example of a thing) in Blythe a Day on Flickr.

Up On The Roof

Odette shared her binoculars with Gidget on the rooftop patio where they were both admiring the view. They have been best friends ever since.

These Blythe dolls are Odette Lake of Tears (left) and Cherry Beach Sunset (right). They are my lightest and darkest skinned Blythes. This picture is for “Juxtaposition” (two things being placed close together with contrasting effect) in Blythe a Day on Flickr. The background is a jigsaw puzzle.

Let’s Go To The Car Wash

Welcome to The Fastidious Car Wash! We will get your car sparkling clean or double your money back!

These Middie Blythe dolls are Parson Grace, Nellie Nibbles, and Lena Elena for “Fastidious” (very attentive to and concerned about accuracy and detail) in Blythe a Day on Flickr. The VW is actually the box that a puzzle came in (the puzzle is a camping scene with a VW in it). The red car is a reproduction of an antique pedal car for children.

Must Love Dogs

Strawberry finds that even when she is just making a sandwich, she is never alone in the kitchen! 

This Blythe doll is Heavenly Strawberry, wearing Henrietta Home Party’s stock outfit, for “Cynophile” (dog lover) in Blythe a Day on Flickr. 

Dolls!

I didn’t realize that I was going to become a plangonologist when I bought my first Blythe thirteen years ago, but here I am, with over 100 Neo Blythes, a dozen Middies, and 15 and a half Petites (one of them has no legs, she’s the half). It’s funny how many other dolls have joined them; I have a lot of Sonny Angels and Mini Lalaloopsy’s, and quite a few other random dolls, as you can see in this picture.

This picture features my newest Blythe, Lavendula Babe, in the center, for “Plangonology” (doll collecting) in Blythe a Day on Flickr. 

Out The Window

Q: Why did silly Sally throw her clock out of the window? (Answer below)

This Blythe doll is Miss Sally Rice, posing for “Defenestrate” (to throw out of a window) in Blythe a Day on Flickr. I didn’t have a doll-size window, so I spent some time drawing and coloring and cutting out this one.

A: Because she wanted to see time fly!

The Smell of Rain

Smell the rain. Splash in a puddle. Enjoy your life!

This Blythe doll is Simply Sparkly Spark wearing Nicky Lad’s raincoat, posing for “Petrichor” (the smell of rain) in Blythe a Day on Flickr. This is a chalkboard flat lay. I used liquid chalk markers for the rain.
