Brenda Blythe, dressed in blue, bought a baby buggy to bring her beloved belongings with her: books, bears, and her banjo.
This Blythe doll is Brenda’s Extraordinary Day, posing for the Alphabet Challenge (letter “B”, obviously!) in the Blythe Pure and Simple group on Facebook.
You can’t have too much HAPPY!
These Blythe dolls are Lovely Katherine’s Corner and Fighting Milk Saranghae, wearing beautiful new dresses from WoollyRockers on Etsy. I was trying to think how to show happiness in a doll picture; I decided that colorful pompoms raining from the sky would do the trick!
You are never too old to play.
This Blythe doll is Fighting Milk Saranghae. Her Barbie and the house are a Hallmark ornament from 2007. This picture is for the theme “Barbie” in the Blythe Pure and Simple group on Facebook.
Asha Alvira is the perfect beach girl with her perfect tan. Her bikini and float ring are from The Handflower on Etsy.

I’ve started a new hobby known as adult coloring. It’s much harder than I expected it to be, especially because many of the members in the Facebook groups I’ve joined are professional-level artists, so of course I compare my efforts to theirs and see that I have a lot to learn! One of the groups has a weekly coloring contest, and the background in this picture is what I did this week. It’s a page from a book called “The Best of Color It”. The challenge was to choose any picture you like, and to color it with only four colors. I used blue, green, brown and red pencils, and took advantage of the white paper to include white in the picture too.
This Blythe Middie is Francoise Ananassa. Middies are a much better size to pose with coloring book pages than my beloved Neos, so I will probably be taking more pictures with Middies now.
Friends come in all shapes and sizes.
Lady Panacea and Brock’s friendship has a firm foundation in their shared love for the color green. This picture is for the theme “Favorite color” in the Blythe Pure and Simple group on Facebook. The broccoli is a baby rattle! It was so cute I couldn’t leave the store without it. Also, broccoli dress! It’s by Button Arcade. We’ve had it for many years, but this is the most perfect picture for it. I just scrolled through Button Arcade/Kyle Ruth’s photo stream of past dresses and it was made in 2008. Seeing all those adorable dresses makes me want to dust off my sewing machine! Let’s see if the feeling gets translated into action in the next few days.
The colors in this picture reminded me of a fun woman I have read about, the Green Lady of Brooklyn. Have you heard of her?
With plenty of pink, AND a fancy beverage from the Hello Kitty Cafe, Melody is ready to seize the day. Are you?
This picture is for the theme “Favorite Color” in the Blythe Pure and Simple group on Facebook. This Blythe doll is My Melody X Blythe—Softly Cuddle You and Me, wearing Lovely Katherine’s Corner’s stock dress.
