Clear bottle green, opaque pearlescent green, and translucent shimmer blue, all approximately "E" size, but rather irregular in shape, between them all. They have never been strung, I can tell because some of the beads included are just bips of unbroken glass with no hole.
Leucauge venusta, Orchard Orb Weaver, June 2013, Upper Marlboro, MD...eating moths coming to my moth light, highly reflective
Here she is in her box! I bought her at Meijer this morning for 19.99. They only had two, and it was only the evil queen. I bought one.lol I assume they have already sold out of Ursula. I didn't see any traces of the new disney signature princesses. The evil queen is very pretty, especially for a Mattel play line disney doll. One thing I will have to say is, I think this is a play line doll, instead of a collector doll. It came with no certificate, or stand. It also has the hollow plastic legs, and very stiff joints for sturdy play. Her outfit is made out of a couple different fabrics. Her dress is the typical stiff Mattel satin. Her sleeves are a almost polyester spandexy material. Her cape is a felt like material, that they use alot with velcro. So it's not the nicest. The cowl is the same stiff satin Mattel uses. Her crown is a hard plastic painted in gold chrome. It stays on with plastic pegs, that connects to the back of her head. Her head is a pearlescent peach vinyl, with crushed black velvet lining her face. The crushed velvet goes all around her head instead of half way, so thank goodness.lol her apple is the same plastic as the crown, but painted in red and green chrome paint. It has a prong that specially fits in the queens specially molded hand. Her belt is a soft gold plastic, could be rubber. Her shoes are a hard gold plastic, and have the skull apple embellishments on the tip. All in all, I think for a Mattel doll, she's worth it! Especially if you don't have a evil queen. And I actually prefer this one over the Disney store one.

Iris is a Coffee skin tone Busty Nnaji with a brass ring piercings laced in blue ribbon on her back. She comes with a OOAK hard cap mohawk wig by PattaArt, and a set of blue lace lingerie and jewellery handmade by emiliacouture. Her eyeshadow is pearlescent purple and lips glossy blueberry.
Deboxing my LE Wedding Cinderella. The cardboard backing has been removed from the inner box, and is free standing. The doll is attached to the backing by wires and plastic ties. The background image is the exterior stairs of the Castle at night.
On my second attempt to get the the Limited Edition Wedding Cinderella 17'' Doll from eBay, I finally got her! I got her with the help of a fellow collector. She is #450 of 500, and was originally sold by the Japan Disney Store. There is a Japanese sticker on the bottom of the box. She was shipped double boxed, and very well packed. She arrived in perfect condition.
She is very beautiful, and has a serene expression, rather than the grumpy pout of the LE Ballgown Cinderella doll. Her lips have a slight smile, which is part of why she has a more pleasant expression than the other doll, who shares the same face mold. She is glancing in the opposite direction of the Ballgown Cinderella, and her skin has a matte surface, rather than the shiny pearly surface of the Ballgown doll. Her pale yellow wedding gown has many differently sized and colored rhinestones enhancing the printed floral pattern. There are also several small jeweled plastic butterflies in the skirt, hidden amongst the flowers. The decorations continue throughout the back of the dress. There are also faux pearl buttons on her sleeves and on the back of her bodice. Her skirt is very full with a long train, and is in three differently colored layers. Under her skirts is a 3/4 length single layer tulle petticoat. Attached to her hair is an oversized pale yellow sheer chiffon veil. She has golden earrings and a jeweled golden tiara. Her wedding ring is a floral design with five golden beads; it is pinned to her hand. She has the old style legs, with fixed ankles. She is wearing simple ivory heels, with no decorations.
I will be posting a full set of detailed photos of this doll. She will be shown boxed, during deboxing, and fully deboxed, both by herself and with other Disney Store dolls.

Adelene was responsible for the explosion of colour that Sunday. I should've known that she would incorporate balloons in the youth activity. Everything she touches somehow blossoms into balloons.
(Her pre-wedding shoot concept is going to be a no-brainer)
In case you're wondering, the balloons are basically a metaphorical representation for distractions (or burdens).
I'm sure you can figure some of the rest out.

I spent a delightful Saturday sunset with the Famous Flickr Five+ Group at Half Moon Bay in Black Rock where we ate delicious fish and hot chips from the Cerberus Beach House before wandering along the beach to the sandstone pillars for sunset.
There were lots of beautiful treasures swept up onto the beach and clinging to the rocks in the shallows including colourful and dark starfish, sea snails, kelp and patterned shells.
Half Moon Bay is a beautiful beach located in the Melbourne suburb of Black Rock, about twenty-two kilometers south-east of Mebourne's centre.
In the bay the iconic shipwreck of the HMVS Cerberus sits just above the waterline. A naval vessel that predates Australian Federation in 1901, this ship is both living history and testament to Australia's maritime tradition.
Since its decommissioning shortly after the Great War, the HMVS Cerberus has served as a breakwater.
In addition to the bay and the HMVS Cerberus, there are also the wonderful sandstone cliffs of Red Bluff. Viewed at sunset their many colours are on full show and you could be forgiven for thinking momentarily that you were in Utah.
Deboxing the Designer SQ Elsa and Hans Doll Set. Hans has been deboxed, leaving Elsa still attached to the display case. First we remove the large plastic support piece behind her. Then we untack her outfit from the base of the display stand. We open her cape and skirt to show her legs tied to the metal post of the built in doll stand.
I have finally deboxed the Designer Fairytale Snow Queen Elsa and Hans Doll Set (2015). My set is #4597 of 6000. It was the only set that I didn't get at the Disney Store raffle, so I had to order her online. I show the set boxed, during deboxing and fully deboxed. After deboxing them, I place them back on their display stand, in a different pose.
I was a little surprised that Elsa has the body construction of the 2012 DS Classic Princess dolls, so has external hinged knee joints and ankle joints. It makes her legs a bit unsightly when they are exposed by opening the slit of the skirt. She has shiny pearlescent skin that is similar to the Harrods Elsa doll, but doesn't have the heavy blush. Her Snow Queen outfit also has embellishments that are more similar to that of the Harrods Elsa rather than that of the LE 2500 Snow Queen Elsa. But rather than the jeweled snowflakes of the 17'' LE Elsa she has single clear rhinestones throughout her braid, and a few on her head. The snowflake and icicle design in her cape are printed rather than embroidered (as in the 17'' LE Elsas) or glittered (as in the Classic Elsa). They are flat and smooth, and I don't think are as effective in depicting ice.
The major embellishments of Designer Hans over Classic Hans are the addition of white gloves, and a sword. However, It's disappointing that there is no scabbard for the sword - it is loosely sewn to his pants legs, which looks rather cheap.
I will show the dolls in side by side comparisons to other Elsa and Hans dolls in future postings.

Deboxing the 2015 LE Elsa Doll. First the front cardboard lid is removed, revealing a clear plastic window underneath. Then the plastic window and rear cardboard lid are removed, leaving the doll attached to a free standing cardboard backing. The Certificate of Authenticity is removed from below the backing. Then the doll is removed from the backing, but still attached to the plastic form and doll stand. She is placed next to the now empty backing, which has an image of a purple colored window of the Arendelle Castle, viewed from the inside.
The Limited Edition Elsa Doll, released in stores in North America on March 3, 2015. My doll is #2942 of 5000. She is in jeweled purple felt (made from faux wool). This is the outfit she wore as an 18 year old when saying good bye to her parents before their overseas journey. She is wearing ice blue jeweled satin gloves, which help repress her ice powers. Her hands are clasped together. Her pose and look are that of a sternly repressed nature. She is standing in front a purple window of the Castle, which is closed, as she is closed to the outside world.
She is wearing black flats with floral decoration. Her jacket is pinned to her dress, which I left alone, as it helps to keep the jacket from opening up. There was a large amount of tissue paper stuffing under her skirt. I had to remove her from the doll stand before I could remove the tissue.
She has shiny pearlescent skin, and her skin tone is between that of Coronation Elsa and Snow Queen Elsa. Her hair is slicked down in the front and is in a bun in the back. There is gold tinsel in her hair, even in her side burns.

This creepy haute couture lizard for Halloween is Phelsuma, a OOAK Inamorata art doll with Nnaji head sculpt and Andro bust type in Charcoal resin.
Her highly editorial make up has a pearlescent green scale pattern running from her brow to the back of her head, red and gold lips, rust coloured eyes and wild eyeshadow covering her brow with multi coloured leaf gold. The look is finished with green sequins as bindi and below her eyes.
The translucent netting dress is a hand stitched with thick scaly clusters of red and green sequins and beads to accentuate feminine form. The netting boots with Classic Stiletto heels have a line of red sequins running down the back seam.
Both doll and the fashion are available in the shop now:
Cadillac Series 62 Coupe (7th Gen) (1961-62) Engine 390cu in (6391cc) V8 OHV

The 7th generation Cadillac 62 was restyled and re-engineered under Bill Mitchell for the 1961 model year. The new grille slanted back towards both the bumper and the hood lip, along the horizontal plan, and sat between dual headlamps. New forward slanting front pillars with non-wraparound windshield glass were seen. Standard equipment power brakes, power steering, automatic transmission, dual back up lights, windshield washer, dual speed wipers, wheel discs, plain fender skirts, outside rearview mirror, vanity mirror and oil filter. Rubberized front and rear coil springs replaced the trouble prone air suspension system. Four-barrel induction systems were now the sole power choice and dual exhaust were no longer available. A mild face lift characterized Cadillac styling trends for 1962. A flatter grille with a thicker horizontal center bar and more delicate cross-hatched insert appeared. Ribbed chrome trim panel, seen ahead of the front wheel housings in 1961, were now replaced with standard cornering lamps and front fender model and series identification badges were eliminated.
This car was the subject of an episode of the Discovery Channel, 'Wheeler Dealers, starring Edd China and Mike Brewer where repairable classics are are repaired and restored to a budget, and then sold on. This Cadillac was the subject of an extensive rebuild and respray in pearlescent green and white paintwork with hand painted pin-striping and gold leaf artwork. It sits on Ridetech air suspension and new whitewall tyres. The interior has also been restored with fresh trim in white with green alcantara headlining.
This car was offered at the H + H Brooklands Auction 8th March 2014 selling for a hammer price of £ 13664

Afternoon light streamed through the soft wintry cloud cover reflecting on the lagoon's choppy surface. Then and there I had my first taste of what they mean by the "shimmering light of Venice. " Wow. This is why people fall in love with Venice!!
After a tear filled reunion with her mother, Ling was left with a million and one questions. You would think relief would have quelled her anxiety. But in all honesty now that her mother didn’t reign over her thoughts her mind was frantic. More and more things didn’t add up and she realized the shit show she was in store for.
Ling: “For fuck sakes Ling. How in the hell were you caught lacking so hard?!”
Her mind scrambled so much she short circuited in the stairwell leading to the garage. Ling’s mother was left with a few items to give her. One was a set of mystery keys. There was also a set of detailed instructions. Atop the workbench in the garage was a chip loaded with a map, along with a list of targets, connections and safe zones.
Ling: “I knew some bossy ass instructions and some fuck shit was missing from the last rendezvous point. This muthafucka won't just let me live, huh? Targets… Safe zones…connections. Oi vey..”
Ling sighed as she began downloading names, addresses and contacts. Assassinations werent new to Ling but having someone enforce them without pay or knowledge as to why, was. Call it a contradiction but Ling was a bit of an “ethical” assassin if you will. She had to see the scum of a being as a legitimate reason for being extinguished. Subjective as all hell? Yes, but so are most things in this life.
She twirled the keys in angst wondering what they were for. The garage was empty and unlocked so it wasn't for either of those things. After all the downloads wrapped up Ling hopped on top of the workbench creating a slight air current. The breeze blew what seemed to be a cloaking tarp, for half a second. It exposed the shiny rims of a bad bitch mobile. The cloak made the garage seem empty. But this is what Majin did best. Piss Ling off, stress her out then pleasantly surprise her.
A grinch style smile slathered Ling’s face as she jumped down off the bench. She held both hands out in front of her with a wide leg stance. Grabbing a fistfull of tarp in each hand she unveiled a bad bitch mobile for the ages. Like a magician revealing his disappeared assistant. Ling shrieked in a crazed but pleased cackle.
Ling: So smoooove! Ugh like buuddaa! This.Is.To Die For!”
The sunkissed glint from the hood of a yellow pearlescent paint job glimmered like dawn over the horizon. There was a matte black rear tightly hugging the car's curves like a satin garter. This car embellished lustrous chrome details from trim to rim reflective enough to blind anyone entranced enough to stare. Its interior wasn't any less salivating. Dual material seats of premium leather and the softest suede adorned the seating. The black and yellow was a statement for sure. Ling had her very own bumble bee. She will definitely transform when driving this Bad Bitch around.
Ling: “Let me set up for a selfie beetch! This is definitely pic worthy. My fit match my damn car. Uh uh time to hurt some hoes feelins with this one!!”
After her photo op Ling sorted her objectives by threat level. Those she deemed sadistic degenerates were put on the top tier. She was eager to delegate retribution even without payment as an incentive. Let’s keep it a buck here. Who doesn't want the twisted minds of most deviants splattered on the pavement like an original Picasso. At least that’s what Ling believed most people like her would want. I mean it did help her sleep better at night being justified in such a way.
Her drive was long, but bass filled. Tia Corrine, Jucee Froot, Kookie Kawaii and the likes sauntered through her speakers. Bumble Bee, yes she named the car, rattled lightly to the female linguist laying out their melodies. Upon arrival at the first perp’s location she knew the only way in was to use her dark feminine. The perfect song came on to help her awaken that ego, Tia Corrine - Freaky T.
Ling: “Alright you sick fuck, time to get fucked.”
Ling circled the block because the valet parking would have trapped bumble bee from a smooth escape. Sauntering up to the front of the building she waved at the gawking valet boy. Ling could feel security staring at her through limo tint glasses. She scoffed lightly and forced a half smile at the meathead guarding the door. Her strut turned heads as she beelined for the receptionist. There was a beautiful young woman with bubblegum pink hair slicked back into a bun manning the desk. She code switched from handling a pervy old man to addressing Ling.
Young Lady: “Welcome to Pertham Inc. Do you have an appointment with us this morning?”
Ling: “Yes, I have a 9:15 consultation with Mr. Malfoy”
The young lady hastily clicked around on a holographic calendar. Her name tag read La'Naya. Seeing all she needed to see she perked up and spoke with an air of support for a fellow melanated boss bitch.
La'Naya: "Ah, yes! He has been expecting you. Right this way.
The young lady sashayed from behind her station in a fly silk blouse with a patent leather pencil skirt to match. They gave each other a look of approval while eyeing each other's outfit. Honey, the flavor was flavoring. Announcing "yaaasss" in unison both women then bust out in laughter seeing the confused faces of bystanders. They both switched their hips in idgaf towards a pair of glass double doors. It’s a culture thing so the ladies kept it pushing with pride.
La'Naya: "Girl you got this. Boss bitches gone put it down and pick it back up everytime!
Ling: "And is! Listen, keep making your coin and I hope to see you in your own office next time boo!."
Ling felt bad that she was about to shut this whole operation down rendering such a cool chick unemployed. You know she is making bank too, the way she presented herself was all quality from the roota to the toota. They shook each others hands after pushing through the doors and La'Naya announced my arrival to Mr. Malfoy through her cybertronics.
La'Naya: "Mr. Malfoy, your 9:15 is here."
His fat, sloppy, sleazy ass slithered from behind yet another set of doors. All 409 pounds of debauchery jiggled their way.. He undressed both women with those prison pit hole pupils of his. Ling waved to La'Naya then turned to face the fat fuck. Malfoy wheezed in glee until he finally met Ling’s gaze. That's when he knew, he fucked up...
Here she is in her box! I bought her at Meijer this morning for 19.99. They only had two, and it was only the evil queen. I bought one.lol I assume they have already sold out of Ursula. I didn't see any traces of the new disney signature princesses. The evil queen is very pretty, especially for a Mattel play line disney doll. One thing I will have to say is, I think this is a play line doll, instead of a collector doll. It came with no certificate, or stand. It also has the hollow plastic legs, and very stiff joints for sturdy play. Her outfit is made out of a couple different fabrics. Her dress is the typical stiff Mattel satin. Her sleeves are a almost polyester spandexy material. Her cape is a felt like material, that they use alot with velcro. So it's not the nicest. The cowl is the same stiff satin Mattel uses. Her crown is a hard plastic painted in gold chrome. It stays on with plastic pegs, that connects to the back of her head. Her head is a pearlescent peach vinyl, with crushed black velvet lining her face. The crushed velvet goes all around her head instead of half way, so thank goodness.lol her apple is the same plastic as the crown, but painted in red and green chrome paint. It has a prong that specially fits in the queens specially molded hand. Her belt is a soft gold plastic, could be rubber. Her shoes are a hard gold plastic, and have the skull apple embellishments on the tip. All in all, I think for a Mattel doll, she's worth it! Especially if you don't have a evil queen. And I actually prefer this one over the Disney store one.
The Shadownlands Collection is based on science fiction stories by Dyan Bender.
The second character in the collection is Fyre, whose secret name is Ardala. She is the adopted daughter of a wealthy Healer and direct descendant of the last ruler of what is often called the Great City.
She is a Highborn, a race the developed from Human close intermarriage of the ruling families. Thru centuries of narrowed bloodlines a race of physically beautiful and mentally gifted people consolidated power. Marked physically by extremely pale pearlescent skin and blazing red hair with oddly metallic quality. Highborn are marked by a drive to acquire power and are gifted with something other races call Charisma.
Ardala is young, she has gained her full height but is still not filled out completely. She has been able to pass as a boy for years. Her eyes are blue, the warm blue of shallow seas, and bright with curiosity and good humor. Although wealthy now for many years she and her mother moved often and she has learned to easily adapt to new locations...she enjoys learning about new people, customs and cultures. She is gentle, and her gentle nature shows in her expression. She completely lacks the imperious and commanding nature that typically marks Highborn, but she is just starting to understand that she has personal power, she is starting to learn that she can command the attention of others.
She wears her silk finery, wide pants of teal silk that were left a bit short in the ankles in her last growth spurt; silk slippers encrusted with brass sequins; a silk chiffon vest draping over her young shoulders with fine brass chains; a bra heavily embellished with tiger eye gems, brass and gold, forming hawk motives that symbolize and foreshadow her soaring potential. Her hips, neck and intricately braided hair are adorned with gold chains.
The doll is a Andro Inamorata Nnaji in Milk skintone.
This is a commissioned bespoken OOAK doll and not for sale.
Peter Paul Rubens
Rubens, his wife Hélène Fourment & their son Frans [1635] - Metmuseum AN 1981.238
The artist, his wife Helena, and one of their sons appear within an idealized version of the garden at the mansion Rubens built in his native city of Antwerp. The leather strap across Rubens’s chest alludes to his right, as a nobleman, to carry a sword, while the rhyming ribbon tied across his son’s chest playfully positions him as his father’s heir. There was a nearly forty-year age gap between Rubens and his second wife, whom contemporaries widely recognized as his muse and model. The juxtaposition of her plump and pearlescent young hand with his ruddy and weathered one emphasizes both their physical disparities and their physical connection.

Samson was an old sailor. He used to sing shianties to us kids,
and if we asked him nicely, show us his fantastic tattoos.
Samson lived in a small cabin in the forest.
To me as a child, his tiny, cozy livingroom was like a treasure chest.
All kinds of amazing things from all over the world. Crystal balls with small
shells and dolphins inside, shrines covered with colored stones, colorful pictures from exotic places, stunning pearlescent lamps...
Together with his fabolous stories...it was like a true fairytale.
A great man Samson was, who now is long dead and gone.
A few weeks ago, I went by his cabin. The door was smashed, and every window was broken.
I went inside to find everything smashed to pieces and scattered all over the place.
The only thing I could find that was still in one piece, was a metal wash bowl.
I took it with me and went home.
Pilgrims in a pine temple
Wandering into the silent and bear-black forest, the silvered sliver of a hooking moon set, we filled every silent space with amber-toothed, snarling phantoms and held them at bay with nips of cognac and the click of the shutter. Silhouettes under pearlescent starlight, the big trees are primeval minarets, spires of the oldest and grandest cathedral on Earth. We moved reverently, slowly - pilgrims in a pine temple come in the dark to play witness.
Some amongst these trees were old when men lashed Andromeda to the briny rocks and awaited the leviathan. We've filled the interceding centuries with other lambs led to slaughter, and emerging from darkness, discovered her still radiant, shackled to a constellation that is dying in a corner of the sky. Then as now, we are infants amongst giants, in wonder at skies the big trees have seen reel a million times, shades passing in the night. These are the days of miracle and wonder indeed.
We headed into the Sierras looking for a winter adventure, hoping for giant, snow-bound sentinels holding winter in great, fragrant handfuls. Instead we found beautiful, unseasonable warmth and clear night skies amongst the carpeted and ancient groves. We came for the snow and found so much more in its absence.</p
I just love the set "Joy to All" for all the wonderful Christmas sentiments. The off white paper is a thick pearlescent cardstock with lots of shimmer and shine to it (makes it a bit tricky to photograph). Thought it would go well with the cool bue CS and I just had to add some pearls along the border punch and center of the snowflake. Basic Grey "Eskimo Kisses" pp used here as well as my favorite embossing folder.
Design composed of a symbols set harmonized to each other that blend together for a very personal creation of great visual impact.
In a game of overlap born the unusual idea with an evocative aesthetic from the world of slot machines, roulettes, poker chips and dices of the American casinos green tables.
In this composition stand out, as well as the unmistakable symbol of the ace of spades, playing cards with their rich decorations printed on the back.
Harley-Davidson Softail tank airbrushed and painted with special techniques.
Full of overlapping transparent glazes, metallic and pearlescent colors that blend together with each other.
On my second attempt to get the the Limited Edition Wedding Cinderella 17'' Doll from eBay, I finally got her! I got her with the help of a fellow collector. She is #450 of 500, and was originally sold by the Japan Disney Store. There is a Japanese sticker on the bottom of the box. She was shipped double boxed, and very well packed. She arrived in perfect condition.
She is very beautiful, and has a serene expression, rather than the grumpy pout of the LE Ballgown Cinderella doll. Her lips have a slight smile, which is part of why she has a more pleasant expression than the other doll, who shares the same face mold. She is glancing in the opposite direction of the Ballgown Cinderella, and her skin has a matte surface, rather than the shiny pearly surface of the Ballgown doll. Her pale yellow wedding gown has many differently sized and colored rhinestones enhancing the printed floral pattern. There are also several small jeweled plastic butterflies in the skirt, hidden amongst the flowers. The decorations continue throughout the back of the dress. There are also faux pearl buttons on her sleeves and on the back of her bodice. Her skirt is very full with a long train, and is in three differently colored layers. Under her skirts is a 3/4 length single layer tulle petticoat. Attached to her hair is an oversized pale yellow sheer chiffon veil. She has golden earrings and a jeweled golden tiara. Her wedding ring is a floral design with five golden beads; it is pinned to her hand. She has the old style legs, with fixed ankles. She is wearing simple ivory heels, with no decorations.
I will be posting a full set of detailed photos of this doll. She will be shown boxed, during deboxing, and fully deboxed, both by herself and with other Disney Store dolls.

PERSONAL FUN FACT: Of all the many Barbie and Kelly sets made over the years, I must say that this might just be my favorite. I am so very nostalgic for this Shoppin' Fun Barbie. One of the first Barbie and Kelly sets I ever owned was a blonde Shoppin' Fun Barbie and Shelly set that I found at my local flea market. I can still remember like it was yesterday, the moment I spotted the pink Barbie box from afar, sat out on a blanket on the ground. As I approached, I was thrilled to see that I had found a Barbie and Shelly set (it must have been the foreign release as Kelly was called Shelly), which was played with, but still had many of its contents. Colleen and I enjoyed that set for hours on end. We were a little disappointed that we didn't get all the cool food pieces with our dolls, but Barbie and Shelly still had their outfits, plus we did score a few of their accessories. I thought Barbie was magnificently beautiful, and Kelly was super adorable. Sadly a few short years later, I ended up giving Barbie away during my "I have too many dolls" phase, and of course I instantaneously regretted it. Colleen on the other hand was very smart, and kept little Shelly, who we still have to this day!
Even after a five year doll hiatus, it never left my memory that I had stupidly gotten rid of Shoppin' Fun Barbie--one of the coolest sister sets of all time! It was a mistake that I was hoping to rectify as an adult. That fall, I stumbled across a very forlorn looking Shoppin' Fun Barbie in the "Filthy Disney bin." But sadly, she had a butchered hair cut and was unsalvageable...which meant she became a body donor. Of course, I figured this was entirely my fault...after all, I didn't really deserve to find another one considering I had rashly gotten rid of my beautiful childhood doll on a whim. But at least I had found her outfit, which I hoped I could one day mate with a Shoppin' Fun Barbie. Less than a year later, I found the Shoppin' Fun Barbie of my dreams--the lady pictured in the center of this photo. She was nude, and in a container of Barbies that I had actually seen the year before with my dad (I remember the over priced vintage Barbie I really wanted in the container). Anyways, somehow I had not seen Shoppin' Fun Barbie the first time I encountered this container. But Colleen spotted her in there the second time we happened upon the dolls...and for only $2 Barbie was mine! Wouldn't you know, she was nude, which meant that she would wear the outfit I had found the year before. What makes this Shoppin' Fun Barbie extra special to me is the occassion we found her on. It was the first Father's Day without my dad, and his best friend took Colleen and I out to a really awesome, super huge flea market we had never been to before (which sadly closed since). We had an amazing time that day with Dad's friend (who was always like an uncle to us), and Colleen and I never forgot his generosity. Each time I look at one of the dolls I found that day (we came home with a small hoard), I can't help but be fondly reminded of that memory. This Barbie was not only the first Shoppin' Barbie I had gotten my hands on in years, but she is also a reminder of a special day in my life. She also embodies the spirit of my childhood doll the most--the stunning placement of her eyes is almost identical to my childhood doll's!
Let's not forget the little cutie on the far right side of this photo. She's actually wearing the outfit I found in 2011 (I later found another outfit in better condition, so I swapped my first blonde Barbie out of it). She was from the "Teresa lot" of 2016. I of course instantaneously recognized her the moment we met! Her distinctive red lips, gorgeous facial screening, and her painted panties are hard to forget. Sadly, she did not arrive to my house with her baby sister. But that being said, I had two Shoppin' Kelly/Shelly dolls growing up...which means that both my blonde Barbies have baby sisters! She's not nearly as attractive as my African American doll or my first blonde. But I really appreciate her unique look. She has much wider eyes, which are placed a bit more to one side of her face. She was quite the train wreck when I found her--her hair was a rat's nest no doubt! I'm so impressed with how well this beauty cleaned up, and even though I already had two Shoppin' Fun Barbies, I was so appreciative to have found one more! I really don't deserve one of these gals, let alone three!

Her shoes are a hard gold plastic, and have the skull apple embellishments on the tip. All in all, I think for a Mattel doll, she's worth it! Especially if you don't have a evil queen. And I actually prefer this one over the Disney store one.
The background is on glossy paper with Stream, Lettuce and Butterscotch alcohol inks. Then I clear embossed the Floating Leaf image and wiped a thin layer of white acrylic paint over top. The Butterfly with Ferns is stamped in Brilliance pearlescent gold ink. The sentiment is stamped with the same ink and then clear embossed.
Thanks for looking! :-)
adorn yourself in this flapper-esque beaded scarf to add a bit of elegance and interest to your outfit.
knit out of merino wool with scalloped beaded edging and shot through with lines of pearlescent beads, this scarf is just long enough to toss rakishly around your neck to keep your neck warm during these deceptively chilly early spring days.
the roaring 20s scarf measures 3 1/2 feet long and 5 inches wide.

Immature male in the River Thames photographed from Gravesend, Kent. The pearlescent greyish tones rather than pure white/cream show this to be an immature animal and while I didn't get a view of its masculinity, others apparently have! The sharp low back ridge that hints at a dorsal fin discarded by evolution shows very dark and this colour can be retained throughout the animal's life.
It appears fit and healthy and has been seen catching fish, though the Thames appeared too murky for me to see such detail.
A fabulous encounter that lasted well over an hour!

Designer SQ Elsa and Hans deboxed, but put back on their display stand, with the covers off.
I have finally deboxed the Designer Fairytale Snow Queen Elsa and Hans Doll Set (2015). My set is #4597 of 6000. It was the only set that I didn't get at the Disney Store raffle, so I had to order her online. I show the set boxed, during deboxing and fully deboxed. After deboxing them, I place them back on their display stand, in a different pose.
I was a little surprised that Elsa has the body construction of the 2012 DS Classic Princess dolls, so has external hinged knee joints and ankle joints. It makes her legs a bit unsightly when they are exposed by opening the slit of the skirt. She has shiny pearlescent skin that is similar to the Harrods Elsa doll, but doesn't have the heavy blush. Her Snow Queen outfit also has embellishments that are more similar to that of the Harrods Elsa rather than that of the LE 2500 Snow Queen Elsa. But rather than the jeweled snowflakes of the 17'' LE Elsa she has single clear rhinestones throughout her braid, and a few on her head. The snowflake and icicle design in her cape are printed rather than embroidered (as in the 17'' LE Elsas) or glittered (as in the Classic Elsa). They are flat and smooth, and I don't think are as effective in depicting ice.
The major embellishments of Designer Hans over Classic Hans are the addition of white gloves, and a sword. However, It's disappointing that there is no scabbard for the sword - it is loosely sewn to his pants legs, which looks rather cheap.
I will show the dolls in side by side comparisons to other Elsa and Hans dolls in future postings.

I know, her hairstyle is not easy and many specimens of this doll have a bad hairline, even mine is not perfect.
But she has something special to me, the color of the mouth in a soft but at the same time refined color, for that pearlescent effect.
A color like this gives Elise an expressiveness that I love, the same one I see in Flawless or in Blue Blood.
She is underrated, but it was my luck, so I could buy two without spending too much, LOL
The Stylidium vinosum flowers mid October.
The flowers are white with red markings, throat yellow with 3 pearlescent squares. The back of the petals is red-wine coloured. Has a long flower tube covered with glandular hairs.
The leaf rosette individual leaves have a white edge, with a small white hair at the end.
Here we see the labellum which sits directly under the flower to help guide the 'trigger' or column to sit in the correct position while it is set waiting for an insect to land on the flower to set it off.
Deboxing the 2015 LE Elsa Doll. First the front cardboard lid is removed, revealing a clear plastic window underneath. Then the plastic window and rear cardboard lid are removed, leaving the doll attached to a free standing cardboard backing. The Certificate of Authenticity is removed from below the backing.
The Limited Edition Elsa Doll, released in stores in North America on March 3, 2015. My doll is #2942 of 5000. She is in jeweled purple felt (made from faux wool). This is the outfit she wore as an 18 year old when saying good bye to her parents before their overseas journey. She is wearing ice blue jeweled satin gloves, which help repress her ice powers. Her hands are clasped together. Her pose and look are that of a sternly repressed nature. She is standing in front a purple window of the Castle, which is closed, as she is closed to the outside world.
She is wearing black flats with floral decoration. Her jacket is pinned to her dress, which I left alone, as it helps to keep the jacket from opening up. There was a large amount of tissue paper stuffing under her skirt. I had to remove her from the doll stand before I could remove the tissue.
She has shiny pearlescent skin, and her skin tone is between that of Coronation Elsa and Snow Queen Elsa. Her hair is slicked down in the front and is in a bun in the back. There is gold tinsel in her hair, even in her side burns.
