It's A Goodereau kind of Christmas....








It's a Goodereau kind of Christmas! On one of my many yahoo groups I belong to, Allbjdswelcome, Paulette Goodereau of Goodereau dolls, was giving away imperfect bjd's from her company for people who wished to redress, or repaint them...wow, what a Christmas present. I have been longing for a doll that I could repaint, and so on the 21st of this year Dottie from the Oz series arrived from Paulette, dressed in her adorable sparkle boots and gingham dress. It wasn't really looking as too great of a Christmas this year due to finances, it has been very tight and stressful this year.  This little lady was a wonderful uplift, and Paulette is tops, a real Christmas angel. I am hoping to make her into an exquisite 18th century lady, maybe her dress will be white like Gracie's...and a poufy white wig restyled in the 18th century style. I love her faceup, and skin tone, which will look like one of the Vigee leBrun paintings from that era.
I am wishing everyone a Merry Christmas- and hope to have some pics of the dolls enjoying Christmas morning if I can manage it!

Merry Christmas & Have a Happy New Year!~Lisa

Felicity and Rebecca walk in the snow...

We've had alot of snow here in Virginia, especially on Pumpkin Hill. The dolls were very excited, especially my American Girls. Gracie was busy trying on some new Christmas sweaters I bought her - Christmas ornaments, so she wasn't really interested in going walking in the snow. But Felicity and Rebecca were!





I thought the pics turned out wonderful, especially with the snow against the colorsof their holiday outfits. Enjoy!~Lisa

Dania Zarr Lady In Waiting...

Dania Zarr, Lady in Waiting club doll arrived yesterday, so I pulled out some props to play. She is one of the most striking dolls besides Luchia that I have. The picturesthe W Club sent when we pre ordered did not do this doll justice. Her hair is so gorgeous! Wish I had hair this lovely!
Chair is one of the wingchairs, Red Dragon, that I designed for my shop exclusive (now sold out) for King William miniatures & Collectibles, & manufactured by Bespaq. Mirrors are created & designed by Jim Coates, of Jim Coates Miniatures on Ebay. Floor was a large placemat thingy from Pier 1.
I love this doll! She's probably going to be one of my favorites!
