The 2020 BID Gang

 Finally felt inspired to get all my BID's together for a group shot.

And of course the pets had to get into the act as well.

A Girl and A Dog

 Took Nalla and Gypsy out for some new photos today.

The macro settings on my new camera are really good and I was able to get some fairy good close ups, both of Nalla......................... 

.....................and Gypsy

My old camera didn't focus as well on the tiny faces in close ups as the new one does.

I use the pets in photos with the little kids a lot, but have rarely done photos of them on their own, so took some time today and got some of Gypsy as the focus.

I wish Iple would open up the ordering period for the Pet Dolls again soon as I'd love another doggie, and one of the little foxes as well.

Last Days of Summer

 Who knows how long we will still have summer like weather, so since Tudie ( LTF Ante) and Sam ( LTF Pipi) are still dressed for summer I thought I would take them out for some new pics. 

 

The faces on these 2 never fail to bring a smile, or two, or three..........

This photo reminds me of the old Coppertone add where the little dog was trying to pull down the kids swimsuit.

Pipi makes such an adorable little boy I think. Who can resist that face?

And Little Ante is my favorite female sculpt.

She never fails to throw some attitude

Litttle Green Riding Hood

 My DSLR camera I have had for almost 15 years has bitten the dust, so I got a point and shoot to use until I can get another DSLR. Playing with the manual settings today to try and figure things out. Isabeau (minifee Iru) was my subject.

I also noticed poor Isabeau had blown a pupil in one of the eyes I had in her previously, so an upgrade was in order. I gave her my Dollbakery Shimmermints. They are almost the same color as what she had in previously, but the eyes are better quality, so hopefully her pupils will stay in tact this time.

A beautiful morning for a trek outside through the "woods" aka my front bushes.

Triple Threat

As I stated in my post below featuring my KID Faye, Arabel...............I love when I piece of clothing can fit several sizes. I got this little under dress in several colors, so I tried the green one on Dollshe Rosa this morning. While a little tighter on her than it is on the KID and MiniFee's, it does still work.

Rosa is thicker through the middle than the Minifee's and KID's , so she can't wear the "over dress" piece, but I think this makes a lovely gown for something different.

And as always, when the kids come out, so do the resin kitties it seems.

Double Duty

Don't you just love when you find a piece of clothing or prop that can do double duty across a couple different doll lines? Well I guess if you are really focused and only collect one type of doll/size you wouldn't have that problem, but I'm not that focused and my collection runs the gamut of sizes!  

I found this adorable little "under dress" at Denver Doll as I was browsing last week and bought it for my Minifee girls. The ivory one is pictured on one of my mini fee's in my previous post. This morning I was looking at little Arabel (Iple KID Faye) and wondered if the  dress would work for her, as she can wear some other things I've gotten for the mini fee's.

As you can see it is floor length on Arabel, where it is ankle length on the mini fee girls, but it works well I think.  The KID girls will definitely be borrowing these pieces (I got several colors) from the MNF girls closet.

And a final close up of Miss Arabel, as I think she's so darn cute!
