Dolls

Previously I have seen some pix of Secret that were really pretty and some not so much. I just found these on Flickr and I think she looks so beautiful!

Please thank Eric for me... what a great kid!

I am a little bummed I did'nt get the dress or the jewlery I ordered this weekend. Maybe tomorrow I guess. My letter only took 2 days to get to you. *sighs*

She is very interesting looking in those photos. Something about her is a little sad though isn't it? I thought Secret was the one with the teeth though...*scratches head* I love the dress! What is that kitty head thing in the second photo?

Mo will be stealing Pru's outfit back at this rate! Otherwise she won't have much else to wear!

I will tell Eric you said thanks!

Sorry you didn't get your dress or jewelry. It is such a high going to the mailbox with anticipation and than the let-down when there is no box

Whisper has the teeth She is the only one of the 4 I am sure I don't want. Secret has me wondering. I don't really see sad, I see serious. The girl who got the 3 dolls on You Tube thought Secret looked a little angry. I don't see angry in those pix. She actually makes me think of Bing Crosby's daughter who shot J.R. I should look for pix of her in case you don't remember her.

I see two little cat statues in the photo. They look pretty cute!

ETA: Mary Crosby!

Yes, I do remember Mary Crosby! I guess I see more of the redhead on Desperate Housewives!

Wow. And I thought I had a square jaw!

Bree? Well, Bree has super blue eyes so I don't really see her too much. Maybe a little. You should see the newest pix of Mary Crosby Doesn't even look like the same person. Yes, that is one majorly square jaw

It looks like I just sold my Missionary There was a new post tonight on Dolly Market where the poster stated that she was looking to buy a nude Taeyang (preferably Butler) but any would probably do. I sent her pix of my Mac and she answered back that he was beautiful (he really is too ) and that she wanted him. I am awaiting payment before I consider him sold though. She has my Pay-Pal email now. Man, all my Xmas boys leaving already. But, I am getting close to Innuendo! Two more dollies going to new homes and I can order Rylee's cousin! What the hell have I done!!

EEEK! She just paid me!! I'll be boxing him up tomorrow! OMG! Two more to go. Who will be next???

Congrats my laydee! You are definitely on a selling roll! I totally understand the feeling of cleaning house and starting fresh with a goal in mind...I am totally happy with one Taeyang and two Pullip girls. I seriously doubt I will ever buy any more. Cavalie has always been one of my favs...and after customizing him, he has an extra special place in my heart. Even though he is not perfect. I love the mole and his lips. His brows are a little unique, but somehow the entire package is rather interesting. I really need to take a shot of him in Hash's pants. He looks adorable in them with that black sleeveless shirt Meda made for me.

What is Dolly Market btw?

Thanks! Yes, selling the nudes is pretty easy. I sold him for $55 and shipping just like I paid for him. I just want to order Innuendo so bad!

This is Dolly Market:

I didn't know you didn't know about it? I've sold 3 thru there already and perhaps 4 if that guy from Hawaii sends the Money Order. I've just PM'd the posters in the "Wanted" thread that are looking for dolls I have to sell. It seems to be a site for people looking for deals - like I always did on PS.

Cavalie and Sage are here to stay. I am keeping Nero and probably my Haute for now. It's a tough choice about Papin. She is so pretty, but also popular and people look for her a lot and I only paid $50 for her. She might be an easy sale.

I couldn't imagine parting with a doll I customized my self. Tom/Julian must be very special to you!

Gotta hit the hay. Big day tomorrow with the heating guys coming!

Talk to you tomorrow!

One of my outfits for Mo is done and the seamstress thinks she will be done with the dress this weekend! Isn't this perfect? Too bad I don't have any brown shoes or boots to go with it...she will be barefoot in this outfit I think for a while!


Well, we are off to Seattle for an appointment....Have a great day! I will go check to see where Mo is and let you know!

ETA: Mo left Seattle at 5:00 this morning! It may be today, but probably tomorrow! I wonder if you will get Rylee today?

TTYL!

Hi!

That oufit is perfect! Too bad the boots didn't work out, but you will find some!

Congrats on Mo being so close to home!!

It would sure be cool if Rylee came today! I am DYING to see her in person!!

Have a great day in Seatle!!

Talk to you tonight!

OOOH I love that Secret Doll! She is soo pretty. I think she does look like Marcia Cross. I don't watch DH but I think Marcia Cross is beautiful. I wish I knew what skincare products she used. Oh FC I got the mauve infallible. I really like it. It does stay on pretty well.

I am in tears There are just no words. This was the best decision I ever made in my doll collecting hobby.











She is breathtaking in person! Her face is like porcelain. The eyes and lips are amazing! The lashes! She is solid and sturdy. Her body is not shiny like a Pullips body. It has a whole different look and feel. I will take more pix of her tomorrow without the hat and in the burgundy wig . I have a lot left to do here tonight. Justin just took Missionary to the P.O. and I have to get the tracking number to the buyer. I sold M.J.'s stock. The buyer is paying on Tues. when she gets paid (at least I hope she does) I think she will. She just bought a used nude M.J. and wanted clothes for him. I will be at $80 in my currency at PP.

All I can say is I am selling whatever I can to get Innuendo and Secret. Rylee exceeds my expectations beyond believe. Can you believe that Rylee, her wigs and her outfit all came at the same time? The Dollie God smiled down on me today! I so needed it after 6 hours of heating guys here and $3,034 handed over to them But we have a beautiful new hot water heater that is electric starter. More efficient heating. No carbon monoxide coming into the basement. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.

Shipping was only $10. She came in a wonderful box where the drawing of the doll on the outside of the box is wearing the outfit I have on Rylee. They come wrapped in a beautiful white satin pillow. They come wearing pretty, white, frilly lingerie! Her outfit also came with black lace stockings and white underwear! She has all her lingerie on under her outfit because I was in too big of a hurry to get her dressed and take some pix while the sun was shining in the window!

Hope you had a wonderful day in Seattle!

Aerwin, I am so glad you think Secret is pretty!

The Mauve Infallible is my fave color!

ETA: Lead and Filato arrived at their new home today! TWO days is all it took! The gal sent me a pic of them with their new brothers! Look at gorgeous Filato waving at me I'll miss him, but this is the right choice for me. Rylee is just in a whole different league.



It looks like I just sold Papin It is just too easy to sell the nudes. Now if that MJ stock buyer comes through and puts the payment in PP on Tues. I will have the money in currency balance to order Innuendo!!

OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Rylee is even more beautiful than the other Rumors we have seen so far!!!! Congrats my laydee! See how impressive the MSD size dolls are?????? Her eye color, face-up, and outfit are to die for!!!! That wig looks black to me...and perfect on your girl and just stunning with that outfit!!! Is that the burgundy one??? Your pictures are so nice! Your photography has improved dramatically! Just in time for your most spectacular girl to arrive. Those boots are really cute! Don't your love them! Gah! You must be on cloud nine!

I am exhausted...it has been a long day. Mo still may arrive here tonight. The post office said they would call us if she does and they can track her down. Then we can go get her tonight! They are open 24 hours! How crazy is that? I don't know how late they will call, but as it is getting later, I have a feeling it will be Monday. So close....

I got the gray and pink dress today and it is quite nice for 13.00 including shipping and it fits Pru! Damn if she did'nt steal this dress from Mo too! I don't know what I am going to do about that greedy girl that everything looks so good on! The color of the dress looks especially good with the French Ink wig! I have already started to customize the dress with tiny sequins and some fantastic gothic braid. I am just using sewing glue to stick it on. It is a mess, but seems to be working fine. At least I know Mo's clothes will be coming soon from the gal that made the adventurer outfit and the outfit on Ebay I am getting...hopefully! I think I have sold Tom's old outfit and hat, and that striped jacket that mEda made for Bill to Bill's new owner. At least that is 40.00 towards all this stuff.

HI!

So glad you got home! Hope it was a fun trip! How exciting that your Post Office stays open all night like that and that they will call you! I was so hoping that Mo came today and that we both got our girls on the same day But maybe she still will come tonight! I will be going to bed soon, so I won't know until tomorrow morning if she came.

Thanks so much for all the nice words about Rylee!! I can't stop looking at her! Yes, her eye color is just something else! That is why I wanted to order from that doll shop. She is the only one I found that tell you what color eyes you will get and I HAD to have her with green eyes!

That is the black wig. Tomorrow I will get pix with her burgundy wig. I think with this outfit the black looks perfect. Besides, with her coloring she looks like Snow White! Justin thinks the hat looks stupid He asked if she is suppose to be a clown Oh well, I can't get mad at him, he took Missionary to the Post Office for me today while I was stuck here with kids and the heating guys. So now I have both sons helping with my shipping! Justin is so good at fixing things (I probably told you that before) he wrapped up Missionary for me while I was busy with the kids and he did such an amazing job of protecting every limb! Missionary is going to Peoria, IL. (about two hours away) so he should be in his new home Monday.

Thanks for saying my photos are better! That zoom seems to be the trick!

The guy/girl/whatever in Honolulu wanted pix of both my Nomado and Crazzia and decided on Crazzia. So Didi will be leaving when the money order gets here. So it looks like I have sold 5 dolls. I guess there was a good reason I bought so many nudes! Maybe now that I have sold MJ's stock maybe I will sell more clothes to help pay for more new outfits.

I cannot wait to see what you do with the outfits you are customizing! When is the last day of bidding on that dress for Mo? I won't relax until you win it!!

Hubby is bugging me to get off the PC. He says lately our bedroom sounds like an office with all my typing

So good-night and sleep well!

See ya in the morning!

Oh congrats on selling Papin and on Filato going to such a good home. Rylee's sister is getting closer and closer....How many dolls have you sold now then? It is going so fast my head is spinning!

O0-o there is the phone...they think the doll will make it into the shipping office here in town on the midnight truck...then will be transported to our city post office. It should be delivered tomorrow... i won't see her until we get home after the wine deal we have from 3:00-6:00 because I have to work tomorrow. But, at least I will have her tomorrow!

Mo is almost home!! Don't drink too much at the wine tasting because you will need to be able to focus that camera and take pix to post so I can see her!!! What a fun and exciting day you have ahead!

What is cool is that Filata and Lead went to their new home together! That feels special to me. The pic up there seems sureal to me - seeing two of my boys in new clothes and with new brothers. But it is comforting that the first two I sold went together

So officially paid for and shipped = Lead, Filato and Missionary. On hold awaiting money order = Crazzia. On hold awaiting Pay-Pal payment = Papin. On hold for Marissa = Cornice. Going on the market = Nomado and Zuora. Yes, I am pretty much selling them all I want Innuendo and Secret! I am keeping the ones I got never removed from box - Sage, Cavalie, Nero and Haute. One reason is not being able to get what they are worth, another because those are my fave boys and have a lot of meaning to me. Nero is so versatile. Haute? If I cannot sell enough to get Secret I may but her on the market and see what happens. I know Lawleda is selling hers on Flickr NRFB so there is one out there. I of course would ask for less because she is not NRFB. So I guess I will need to decide which I want more Haute or Secret Or I might decide to keep Haute and Sage and sell Nero and Cavalie. I would hate to do that, but I would like to get Secret from this same seller because I can get Secret from her with brown eyes for sure. Then I would have one with green, one with blue and one with brown. So I would like to get her pretty soon. Every other site says "random eyes" and you know how I feel about the random eyes thing

BTW, the reason I am using their JP names instead of the names I gave them is because I have so gosh darn many dolls I bet it is hard for anyone else to remember who is who and I figured it was way easier for you to know who I am talking about if I just call them by their JP names

Oh, and I am awaiting payment on MJ's stock on Tuesday. So yeah, I feel Innuendo will be mine sooooon! Heck I have already named her "Ianna". It is pronounced "e-on-ah". Pretty isn't it?

I hope you have a most amazing day!!

I will be posting pix of Rylee in the burgundy wig soon! She looks awesome and so different than in the black It is amazing what a wig change can do to these dolls!

TTYL~

In case the gal who bought Mj's stock flakes out, I know someone else who wants it badly. So keep me posted.

Hubby just went to go pick the doll up and I have to leave to go to work!
This sucks! I will try to take photos tonight when I get home, but it may be tomorrow!

Have a great day! TTYL!

Luca, I may not be around later. I just got a call that my dad is in a very bad way today and wants me to come. Rob is at work and I called him. We will leave when he gets here. Justin is going to get there later when he gets off work. Eric is still asleep but he is suppose to work from 11:00 AM to about 6:00 PM and I will have to see how my dad is and if he will need to get off early. We have had these calls before, but my mom says this is way different and the Hospice nurse put her arms around her and said "Do you understand what is happening?" Like I said, this has happened several times before, but I do know the day is near. Anyway, I do not think I will be able to take or post any pix or anything and if you do not see me here later you will know why.

I am sorry you have to work and wait so long to see her. So glad that hubby can go get her for you.

Love ya and I hope to talk to you soon!

So have you left yet to go see your Dad or have you just got back? How is he doing? Is he nearing the end of his journey? I am so sorry my friend. I know you are never fully prepared for this when it comes. I have been gone all day and just got home about an hour ago.

Whew...what a day! I did get to see Mo before I went to work. I just had to wait for my husband to get back from the post office at 7:15 this morning. So I did'nt make it to work until 8:00! Well, she is as beautiful and awesome as I thought she would be! Her face-up is magnificent...so beautiful and detailed. In fact, I am struggling to decide whether I want to put eyelashes on her or not...it is almost like she does'nt need them and with her smokey eyeshadow I don't know how much they are going to show up anyway. I did get the ones I ordered today anyway so I will try them out. She is an amazing poser too...very stable body with cool lock in joints. Her lips are more purple than berry as shown in the Dollfactory photos which looks much better, and very witchy pretty! The wig she came with is more of a silver, champagne color which to me does'nt look very good on her. She looks the best with brown toned wigs, which we knew! I have one purple and brown wig from Jpop which is a little big on her, but does look really great with her big, pink eyes!!!! Yes, I got the eye color I wanted. The brand of eyes she has are the best quality I have ever seen so far in person on any doll. They are acrylic, but they call them "crystal" and they look just like glass to me. She also has cool, long pointed fingernails. I am going to paint her other set of hands I think to have a black manicure! I just will need to figure out how to change out her hands and feet.

She wears about the same size clothes and shoes as Pru which is great. She is just a little shorter than Pru. There are only two things about her that I would change, but they are very minor. One is her neck seems a little too wide for the size of her head, but you really only notice it in certain head positions, and I am not as crazy about her from the side. Her profile is a little weak or something. But, straight on she knocks your socks off, so I am very, very pleased with her to say the least!

Anyway, I know you are dealing with a lot right now. Let me know if you want to talk on the phone or PM.

Needless to say, I won't be taking any pictures tonight...I am fried.

I will definitely take some tomorrow though!

YAY!! So glad Mohana is home and you got to see her before work!! She sounds amazing and PINK EYES!! with smokey make-up!! They sound killer!! I wondered if she would have the black nails like her pix. Yes, I think brown will look better on her than silver. I cannot wait to see her in the Brown Angel wig!! Hopefully both of us can take some photos of our new girls tomorrow.

Rob and I got in about 90 mins. ago. I had some emails to return and few things to do around the house before I came here. Dad is in a pretty bad way. Very weak, retaining an insane amount of fluid, in some discomfort in the groin area due to being extremely swollen, more trouble breathing than ever before, coughing, can't feed himself (what little he can eat) can't talk for long. Really just wants to sleep. We did get to visit with him. We stayed for a few hours. Did some shopping for my mom. Went back and talked to him some more. Went over hospital bills again and his banks accounts. He worries about all that stuff so much. Justin came and visited after work for about an hour. He is at a party tonight now. Eric worked late and couldn't get there until after we left. He should be home soon. I don't know what keeps him hanging on. I really don't But I just don't know how much longer he can go on like this. All we hear from the nurses and dad's doctor is they thought he would have died months ago. Oh well, I honestly think it will be very soon.

Well, on to some doll news. Sugarmag123 wanted pix of my Papin and she wants her very much. She is suppose to get back to me when her mom says it is OK to buy her Hopefully I will know tomorrow.

I have been in conversations with Lynn (the doll shop owner I bought Rylee from) about my next Goodreau doll purchase. She is super nice. Adores dolls and has been answering my questions. I have seen more photos of Secret on eBay and I am torn about which girl to get next - Innuendo or Secret. I asked her opinion since she has seen them all in person. She loves Innuendo and has one of her own, but she thinks her lips are a little too small. Says her blue eyes are amazing though. Anyway, she says in person Secret is the prettiest of the 4 vinyl Goodreaus. She is going to email me some pix of both of them tomorrow or Monday (days she is closed) to help me make up my mind. I think that is so sweet!

She was at a doll show with Goodreaus. She thinks they may be coming out with vinyl boy dolls! That would thrill me - if they are better looking than they resin ones anyway. She got to see all the pets and loved them! She says they are going to be coming out with minis soon (not that I want mini dolls) but she said they are the cutest little dolls she has ever seen and she would like to have one of each of them. They will be 5 and 8 inches tall.

Anyway, I think it is great to have a little Goodreau doll advisor to help me out! I cannot wait to see the pix she sends.

Here are some Secret photos I found this morning before we left.




I am really liking her a lot!

I would love to get her and put her in this wig, but this style only comes in size 8/9 I just love the style! It looks like Taylor Swift's hair - which I LOVE!



So keep your fingers crossed that Sugarmag123's mom lets her buy my Papin and that the sale of MJ's stock goes through. If it doesn't I will let you know so you can hook me up with the person you know who wants it.

Guess I better get ready for bed. I hope we get to have a nice day tomorrow. It's hard not knowing what each day will bring

Sleep good and I cannot wait for pix of Mo tomorrow!! Try to take them early so I do not have to wait too long!!

Wow, another Pullip bites the dust maybe!!!! Woohoo! Secret or Innuendo may be right around the corner! I would love to see Secret and Innuendo side by side...that would be cool. Looks like the sale of Tom's outfit fell through...oh well, I gave the gal the name of mEda because she was kind of bugging me about buying stuff I am not ready to sell, and she wound up getting some stuff from her and wavering on getting my stuff. *shrugs*
Oh well...

I don't think I will be able to take photos early because we are meeting with the guy that has the lab for sale tomorrow at 10:00. If we like the dog, we are going to give him 150.00 for him. He is in the paper for 300.00 or OBO. The seller has agreed to sell him to us at that price, we just need to see him to finalize the deal. I know I will love him...who would'nt love a 10-11 month black lab puppy? We will need to build him a dog run before we bring him home. Hubby will get on it tomorrow probably, so may bring him home next weekend... This sure has been an action packed weekend!

I need to go crash myself. TTYL!

COOL! I want puppy pix too! A puppy black lab is going to be the cutest damn thing! You will be in love from the minute you see him!! Good luck!

I heard from Sugarmac123 and she says her mom said yes and will get payment to me "soon".

So sorry that sale fell through Another buyer will come along!

Here is Innuendo in a black wig.



Green and black



Brown.

Bald.


Secret in brown wig.


Secret in blonde wig.


Secret in red wig.


Secret bald.


What do you think? I am leaning toward getting Secret next because I think she may be more interesting. Innuendo looks more "traditionally" pretty though. I still plan to get all three, as I LOVE those blue eyes. I just don't know when I will have enough items sold to get #3 where as I should be able to get #2 this week if my two buyers don't flake out me

That is a tough choice..but overall I like Innuendo better. There is something about the mouth on Secret in some of the photos that looks harsh or overdone or something to me. Those harsh black lines on either side of the mouth and the upper lip being as full as the lower lip makes her look a bit like she has had too much collagen injected or something! I do like her eyebrow shape, but those black eyes bug me too. She is pretty, but definitely has stronger features and eyes. To each her own though!

Eeek! I am so excited for you and Rylee to meet Mo! I have been hard at work taking lots of photos...please let me know which ones are your favs to help me pick out the top 3 to post on Resinality... Without further adeiu may I present Mohana the magnificent!!!!

I got so excited I posted some of the photos over there...here is the link!
http://www.abjds.com/forum/showthread.php?p=42397#post42397

There were so many great shots I really had a hard time choosing! That is a first! I took 92 shots...Oh I forgot to show you Pru's dresss. Not a very good shot, but you can tell Mo was the diva who demanded all the attention!


Just as expected we fell in love with Cole the 7 month old black lab! We will bring him home next weekend after my husband gets his dog kennel ready... Sometimes doggie love is just meant to be! What an exciting weekend this was!
