New Wig and Photoshoot!

newwig02sm

The new wig has arrived! It is a Luts “baby wave” mohair wig in carrot. At first when it had arrived I wasn’t sure whether I wanted to put it on actually as I had begun to grow fond of Frara’s stock wig. In the end I decided to go for it and I’m glad I did. I rather like the wig, and it’s soooo darned soft! Anyway I may do some more styling to it, but the natural looking everywhere curls are growing on me so we’ll see. I posted a few more new wig shots at my flickr which you can find here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/tsukiyonomiyu/ Or you can just click the flickr widget in the sidebar.

I realize that I haven’t named my Dal yet. I am keeping Nina and Sage’s names because I like them, but Frara, does nothing for me. It sounds like the Chinese restaurant servers in A Christmas Story singing Deck the Halls…”Fra ra ra ra ra, ra ra ra rah!” XD Anyway I was kind of thinking of something old fashioned sounding like Coralie, Edeline or maybe even Katherine, then she could be Corie, Edie, or Kitty respectively. Well, I shall have to give some more thought to it.

Christmas Swag Photoshoot.

I added some new photos to flickr of a quickie photo shoot I did with the new dolls and Re-Ment I got for Xmas this year. To check out all of the photos, just visit my flickr page here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/tsukiyonomiyu/

I took a few more pics after these ones but I haven’t had time to transfer them onto my computer yet. Maybe I can get around to posting those tomorrow though. 🙂

Dolly Find – Mini Gingerbread

When I was over in JoAnns today I did some snooping through thier Xmas ornaments which were 70% off and I came across these mini gingerbread ornaments which were meant for the small trees. They also happen to be the perfect Pullip size, and after snipping off their little hoops for hanging, I figure they should be perfect for Pullip an Dal’s holiday cookie tray! Even better was the price which was under a dollar!

Dolly Find – Liv Accessories

When I was in Target the other day I picked up this pack of Liv accessories because I had been looking for a laptop, and also the little pink flats in this set were adorable. Liv accessories actually work quite well for Pullip, well except for the flats, which I will elaborate on below.

Besides the flats, In this set you also get a small silver laptop, lilac backpack, wristwatch, earrings and a pair of glasses. Obviously the glasses won’t work, and the earrings will only work if you pierced your Pullip’s ears. The wristwatch, backpack and laptop though work wonderfully as you can see by the pics above. The laptop has a liv sticker for the screen, but with some crafty editing I’m sure you can change that easily enough. Now onto the all important shoes!

You can tell from the picture that the Liv flats are way too big for the type 3 feet. I don’t know if the feet have changed on the type 4 as I don’t have a type 4 yet. For obitsu feet though it is a much better fit, though still a touch on the large side. I think if you want to use these flats for a photo-op, you’d be good, but not for dressing up and taking your Pullip out. I think though if you had your Pullip in some cute socks it might be just enough to make the fit snug. I wouldn’t count out Liv shoes entirely for Pullip, as I think boots and such would offer extra coverage that helps keep the feet inside the shoe.

Dal Frara

With Xmas money from relatives this year, I decided to order a new Dal Frara! She should arrive before Xmas so she can be wrapped and put under the tree. Actually to be honest the Xmas money comes from my grandmother, and since she just recently passed away, this will be my last gift from my grandmother. I think she would have liked my choice. I only wish she had lived long enough to see my dollhouse finished. Anyway…starting to get weepy….time to go be productive to get my mind off of it.
