I planned on doing separate pictures of each collections as I have a few Liv from different collections, but guess what ? Not enough sun, so I have to wait, but I at least took a quick pic of my collection for now :p
I'm waiting one more, who's supposed to arrive quite soon, it's an Alexis and I think it's the one with the Puppy normally but of course she's gonna come without the puppy XD
I'm really happy to slowly add more dolls to my collection, those girls were so awesome and I just don't understand with Spin Master decided to discontinue them... Maybe cause of the problem they got when they changed their bodies... But it's normal, the Livs are known for their amazing and super great articulated bodies, who are you to change that... Oh, yeah, right, their creators...
Anyways, Making Waves, Puppies, It's My Nature, School's Out... More pics to come :p
Des formes qu’on aperçoit souvent en survolant notre planète : on dirait une collection de vinyles géants… ou une invasion de Pacman 😨 Il s’agit de champs agricoles irrigués, au milieu de zones très arides. Ils utilisent de l'eau fossile pompée à des kilomètres sous la surface, qui est ensuite répandue sur les cultures à partir du centre, à l’aide d’un grand bras qui décrit un cercle. Dans les régions où l'eau douce est rare, c'est une façon faire pousser sa nourriture... Pas d’eau, pas de vie !!! L’emplacement de ces zones peut sembler aléatoire, mais ils suivent les nappes souterraines.
A sight we see often while flying over our planet: peas in the desert, a Pacman invasion, or Earth's record collection? The shapes are of course agriculture, using fossil water pumped up from km below the surface and spread to the crops from the centre in a circular formation. In areas where fresh water is scarce this is one way of growing food, that like all life relies on water to flourish. Their location might seem random, but they follow the underground reservoirs.

The Rijksmuseum (Dutch pronunciation: [ËrÉi̯ksmyËzeËjÊm]; English: State Museum) is a Netherlands national museum dedicated to arts and history in Amsterdam. The museum is located at the Museum Square in the borough Amsterdam South, close to the Van Gogh Museum, the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, and the Concertgebouw.
The Rijksmuseum was founded in The Hague in 1800 and moved to Amsterdam in 1808, where it was first located in the Royal Palace and later in the Trippenhuis. The current main building was designed by Pierre Cuypers and first opened its doors in 1885. On 13 April 2013, after a ten-year renovation which cost ⬠375 million, the main building was reopened by Queen Beatrix. In 2013 and 2014, it was the most visited museum in the Netherlands with record numbers of 2.2 million and 2.45 million visitors.
The museum has on display 8,000 objects of art and history, from their total collection of 1 million objects from the years 1200â2000, among which are some masterpieces by Rembrandt, Frans Hals, and Johannes Vermeer. The museum also has a small Asian collection which is on display in the Asian pavilion.
Building
The building of the Rijksmuseum was designed by Pierre Cuypers and opened in 1885. It consists of two squares with an atrium in each centre. In the central axis is a tunnel with the entrances at ground level and the Gallery of Honour at the first floor. The building also contains a library. The fragment building, branded Philips wing, contains building fragments that show the history of architecture in the Netherlands. The Rijksmuseum is a rijksmonument (national heritage site) since 1970 and was listed in the Top 100 Dutch heritage sites in 1990. The Asian pavilion was designed by Cruz y Ortiz and opened in 2013.
History
21st century
The atrium after the renovation in 2013
In December 2003, the main building of the museum closed for a major renovation. During this renovation, about 400 objects from the collection were on display in the 'fragment building', including Rembrandt's The Night Watch and other 17th-century masterpieces.
The restoration and renovation of the Rijksmuseum are based on a design by Spanish architects Antonio Cruz and Antonio Ortiz. Many of the old interior decorations were restored and the floors in the courtyards were removed. The renovation would have initially taken five years, but was delayed and eventually took almost ten years to complete. The renovation cost ⬠375 million.
The reconstruction of the building was completed on 16 July 2012. In March 2013 the museum's main pieces of art were moved back from the 'fragment building' (Philips Wing) to the main building. The Night Watch returned to the Night Watch Room, at the end of the Hall of Fame. On 13 April 2013, the main building was reopened by Queen Beatrix. On 1 November 2014 the Philips Wing reopened with the exhibition Modern Times: Photography in the 20th Century.
According to Muriel Huisman, Project Architect for the Rijksmuseum's renovation, "Cruz y Ortiz always like to look for a synergy between old and new, and we try not to explain things with our architecture.â With the Rijks, âthereâs no cut between old and new; weâve tried to merge it. We did this by looking for materials that were true to the original building, resulting in a kind of silent architecture."

The collection of the Rijksmuseum consists of 1 million objects and is dedicated to arts, crafts, and history from the years 1200 to 2000. Around 8000 objects are currently on display in the museum.
The collection contains more than 2,000 paintings from the Dutch Golden Age by notable painters such as Jacob Isaakszoon van Ruisdael, Frans Hals, Johannes Vermeer, Jan Steen, Rembrandt, and Rembrandt's pupils.
The museum also has a small Asian collection which is on display in the Asian pavilion.
It also displays the stern of HMS Royal Charles which was captured in the Raid on the Medway, and the Hartog plate.
In 2012 the museum took the unusual step of making some 125,000 high-resolution images available for download via its Rijksstudio webplatform, with plans to add another 40,000 images per year until the entire collection of one million works is available, according to Taco Dibbits, director of collections.
This is my makeup collection as of 09/27/09. I forgot to include eyeliners, eyelashes and back ups, but this is the majority of it!

Some Barbies are hidden behind others, but yeah...this is my collection so far. I joke that they're invading the house shelf by shelf...but they are. *grin*.
first it was just a new shadowbox for some small Halloween items. Then a second shadowbox, then a book shelf and now it's ESCAPING FROM IT'S CORNER. I am powerless to stop it.
