Do you ever wondered...?

Why there isn't more cake in the world^,^ I was inspired by The Mad Hatter's tea party. And it just showed me that I need more whimsy in my world. Work in progress...Thx *.*

Found this at Family Dollar for $5

Image
I decided to take a chance, since I'm always looking for doll shoes. And these pairs are pretty good. Made of solid, hard plastic;  so they should take paint and they fit perfectly.  The clothes are cheap and we lost a strap on the black one right out the box *,* but still worth my $5.

Had to spend another dollar =-D

This pattern has been out since "The Royal wedding". And I resisted it for many reasons. Then I read the back of the envelope and it contains three different sizes: Sm-10.5  Med-11.5 average Barbie size and Large-12.5. It includes leggings, a belt and scarf pattern. And if you go to Simplicity.com they have a section with doll clothing construction tips. I have stocked patterns for years and never even thought to read the back of a doll pattern. I probably still won't use it, but doll facts are Fun*,*

Let "Vixen " show you what we found *,*

A doll stand is from Hobby Lobby. It doesn't say what size it is, but it's the best scale I've found in a retail store and for just .98 cents after the 40% off coupon. As for the display unit, it was FREE. YEAH I love free=D  it's from the store where I work. Seasonal kids paintables were in there and since they got clearanced,  I get the box. It can display anything, in any setting. So I'm going to paint the cubbies white and use it all the time*,*

Another pattern *,*

I hope they reissue a "Ken" pattern. Now those are hard to find. Especially for a suit or a blazer.

My New Myscene boy

Image
I'm pretty sure this is River. He was $2,   wearing only blue pants. He was a little dirty, but he cleaned up like new and is the cute 5th member of my Myscene boy band.

New Chair 2

I used the same pattern.  This time I used fleece to cover it. And it's so cozy, even my phone can relax and "recharge" =D. Hey, now that's comedy right there^,^
