OMG!!! I won this outfit.

You've probably noticed my wardrobe is a bit lacking. I model all the time but own very little clothing of my own. Now I have a new outfit. I won this from Karen Mom of Three's Blog. This awesome cute outfit was made by Mini Me Dolly Diva on Etsy and Facebook. How cute it this? I am all set for Valentines Day.

Karen Mom of Three's blog has give aways all the time check it out. For fans of Maplelea Dolls she  has a blog for them and a book club blog and a facebook group.  Oh ad a weekly post on Doll diaries. (Karen is everywhere doll related! Check  her out! All kinds of great tips.)

You tube

Today Andy and I watched  GOTY Studios You Tube videos called Search + Destroy. We  loved it. There were 2 other American Boy's in it. We were very happy to see them. Ali is so creative. If you have some free time watch her video's. I think that we will soon be watching some more of her series since the boys are off of school on Monday.

We also made more furniture today. We are an entertainment center away from being finished. (well maybe a shelf as well to store our puzzles and games on.)

Photo's of our new furniture as soon as it is all set up.

Busy busy building

Our people have not had dolls for a very long time. While they are a crafty bunch up until recently we have had only the bare minimum. That is all changing. The boys have a  long weekend. Mom found this awesome blog and youtube person called My Froggy Stuff . Thanks to her tutorials, Kendall, Andy and I now have a table and a couch made from recycled cardboard, old clothing, paper and different types of glue. I am so excited. Tomorrow we are making chairs.  I am hoping for some appliances as well, but we will have to wait and see.
I'll post some photo's of the stuff we made.
SO COOL!!

The outfit we worked on...

Ok here is me modeling the ensemble, please excuse the horrible hair don't my people brother that is 6 was carrying me around and I was getting all tangled so Mom quickly pulled it up, and we're going to figure out a new style tonight. These are not the best photo's they are right inside the door but it was so windy outside it would be dangerous for a person (ummm...doll?) of my stature.

The entire ensemble

We forgot to take a photo of the soles of the boots, but they have soles too.

Cool? or Not?

Thoughts?

Sam s Still Here

I forgot to tell you that Sam did not find her forever  home yet, and she is still staying with us. I loved having her here for the Holiday's but I wish she'd find a new Mom of her own. I know it makes her sad.

Love <3 and prayers for Sam,

2012

Well, 2012 is here!
HAPPY NEW YEAR

Mom and I have spent the Holiday's since  Christmas knitting and crocheting some clothes for my sized dolls. She made crocheted bootie style slippers, a Knitted skirt, a knitted and crocheted wrap sweater, a knitted and crocheted purse, a crocheted headband and Crocheted UGG style boots. She is now working the second pair of Ugg's from the same ball of yarn, and this pair is a shorter pair than the first. The first pair went up to my knee, this pair is an ankle boot style. So, what is my actual job in this you ask? I am the mannequin she fits the stuff on, lol. I have to sit still for long periods of time and wait. It's ok, my clothes are cute that I have on. too bad om won't let me keep the outfit. If all goes well photos will be taken tomorrow of most of it.

My family has a second Etsy store now as well and we make and sell cross stitch patterns in that store. It is  Blip 103 Patterns. yes, we use the 103 often, lol. It has no meaning, other than when Dad was making an email account a long time ago, that no longer exists, there was a comic book by him called Blip 103 and hence it stuck. Mom and Dad combine their email's into Lemonhead 103, since they both make the merchandise.

Well Mom told me she needs to finish a pattern for the pattern store so she wants her computer back.

Love <3,
Beth

PS.
This is Beth's Mom, she gets to keep a toasty cozy pair of Ugg style boots. I am  not completely heartless. LOL and if I can get everything done, I'll try to work an outfit in too, no promises though. It took me 5 days t knit and crochet all that since I made my patterns as I went along, and I need to make her Doll cousins in PA sets for gifts first as we give to others before we satisfy our own desires.. I want to send them to the PA Doll Cousins for Valentine's Day since they are coozy winter styles.

Wow it's almost here

December flew by. It seems like it was just Thanksgiving. I am so looking forward to Christmas with my new family.

We have been a busy bunch. Mom made the boy's a set of bunk beds. It is so cool. I like to hang out on them as well. There is going to be an upcoming blog post about them in January and I will share the link to them.

I have been busy as well.I am learning to knit. I hope I can get the boys some blanket's finished before Christmas. I have half of one done and I did all of it in one day, so it might happen. I am making super soft fuzzy blankets. I hope the boys like them.

This is a short post, I need to finish the blankets  and time is a ticking, so I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah and Happy Kwanzaa.

Love <3
