My darling is hooome π I’m completely in love with her!
On with the box opening ^^
I’m SO happy, itsΒ ridiculous. I want to spoil her (even more than she will be when her stuff arrives) and I don’t want to put her down. I’m dreading monday when I have to go to work and leave her at home π
Prepare to be spammed with this cutie often in the future ;D
Category: Box opening
Welcome home Alice!
Yaaay, she’s here ;D
I’m not sure what eye color and size I like her best in, but its easy to change it up if I ever tire of one look π I’m thrilled with her, I like the body very much (except the leg joints, I think I may have to suede them eventually) and her face is fantastic. She looks good in everything and anything, she is so mild and soft looking. Absolutely perfect!
I’m still a bit in disbelief I think, that I actually have her at home ^^
Chloe is home
I wasn’t expecting her until tomorrow at least, but when I came home today and checked her tracking I found that she was at my local post office!
I quickly ran out the door to get her, I was so happy and so scared!
I opened her fairly quickly, since I was so worried there might be something wrong, so the photos are few and bad, sorry about that.
I haven’t had a look at her body in the daylight yet, so I don’t know if her body has pock marks and scratches, but if she does they can’t be too bad since I didn’t see any in room light.
She is just perfect. For once a doll from fairyland is strung pretty much perfectly, her body seems to be in good shape, and her face is adorable. I’m in trouble though, because she needs more hands, lol ^^
I probably wont have the time orΒ strengthΒ to give her a face until saturday or sunday, so poor thing will just have to wait. I can’t wait to see her with a bit of color though π
A big thanks to Fairyland for managing to send a few dolls out that aren’t in horrible condition, and so soon too, if all dolls where shipped this fast I’d stop looking at the MP for ever π
My little guilty pleasure is home!
I swear I nearly freaked when I saw how small the box was, I was sure there was no way she could have survived in one piece
Okay, I was really disappointed at how dirty she is, but it is a danger when adopting dollies that have been much played with. We’ll bond nicely while cleaning her up I’m sure.
The second thing was, she has a rub on her lip that the seller didn’t tell me about… And as you can see from the photos, the face-up looks a lot better on the sleeping plate. I’ll be enhancing her face-up once she gets cleaned up, though I doubt I can do anything about the little rub. Oh, there is also a tiny rub by her eye.
The blue 10mm eyes I had gotten for her were too tiny. The 12mm she’s wearing in the photos are too big. And I have ordered another pair of 10mm for her, no doubt they’ll be too small too. I’ll figure it out.
Despite the things wrong, I adore her. She has a sort ofΒ mischievousΒ look about her that I adore <3
Hee hee :D Another one is HooOoome!
Woho π
I was annoyed because the UPS (yes, turned out it was UPS) tracking page said she’d be delivered at the end of the day (which according to them is 7 pm), but luckily she came earlier π
The girls were just hanging out, it’s a really warm day today
Me: Hey guys guess what!
Me: PACKAGE π
Story: Another one?
Luna: What is it?
*?*: oOoo it’s big..
Me: I may have.. kind of.. adopted another girl π
Luna: Let’s get to work and get her out of there then!
Story: Another one of the pink pretty boxes!
*?*: This box is almost like my box..
Story: Is that her? Will she have a lollipop like the photo?
Me: Lol, no, that isn’t her and I doubt there’ll be candy with her, it would get sticky on her journey here.
Luna: No matter what she looks like, we better get her out.
Story: You’re right, I hope she is as awesome as you guys though
Luna: Another pink pillow, and I see the zipper over there
*?*: Soft pillow..
Story: Let’s work together and open it up
Story: I’ll hold it open, you guys go on and pull her out!
Luna: hellooo?
*?*: Peekaboo?
Story: Aaaaaaah! She has no FACE!
*?*: Hmm.. that can’t be right?
Luna: Of course she has a face you guys.. Don’t worry, I’ll help get you out and put together ^-^
Me: Good girl ^^ At least someone isn’t easily startled around here
Luna: Hello, pretty one. Welcome to our home π I’ll let this lady here take you now, and she’ll give you eyes and clothes and everything
Me: Tadaaaa:D Hello you perfect little thing you!
*? nr2*: ..hello….
Me: Don’t be scared, we are all very nice π I hope you’ll be happy with us
*? nr2*: thanks.. It doesn’t seem so bad π
Β Luna: I like her, can we keep her?
Me: That was the idea, yes π Aaaw, look at you two! *Squeee*
Well, I’m just super happy right now π Oh, the seller didn’t mention that the magnets in her wrists were loose, so I did get quite a surprise when I was changing her hands. It’s not a big deal and a pretty common problem with LTFs, I just wish she would have mentioned it.
I almost can’t believe I finally have my Ante π She is so pretty! I can’t wait to photograph her more, and I can see I’ll be needing more wigs and eyes in the future π I’m actually not stoked about her in blue eyes, but she’ll wear them until I can figure out what color I want for her.
Opening of ze box!
Woho π Everything went fine with the mailman! (He is equally fascinated every time I’m standing outside waiting for my package π )
On with the box opening story!
Story: So this is her then? Inside this big brown thing?
Luna: We better get her out of there
Story: Her box is different than mine.. And there’s a picture of a boy on the outside! Are you sure this is the right package?
Me: Yes, I’m sure ^^ Her box is different because she is older than you. Fairyland used other boxes back then, and the photos were random, so there isn’t a boy in there π
Luna: Is this candy for us?
Me: I think it’s for me, sweetie, but you can all have a little bit later
Story: …I’m still not convinced there isn’t a boy in there..
Story: You sure we can’t just leave her in there?
Me: Story! Be nice!
Story: geez.. I was just joking.. kinda.. See, I’m opening it..
Luna: What a pretty pillow!
Story: Thats not fair, I didn’t get a pillow!
Me: Story! I told you, fairyland changed how you guys travel a while back, I’m sure you can borrow it whenever you want though.
Luna: Let’s let her out
Story: yeah.. I guess we should..
Story: OHMYGOSH she is naked!
Luna: Oh, she’s also missing eyes.. and hair
*?*: ….
Me: There you go sweetie ^^ The wig is a little big, but we’ll get you a new one later.
*?*: ^-^
Story: Hello.. My name is Story.. and I’m happy to meet you.. kinda..
*?*: ..chuu?
Story: You don’t seem so bad..
Me: So, what do you say Story? Was she all bad like you thought she would be?
Story: No.. I approve!
Story: I like you.. Huuug!
*?*: ^-^ <3
Here are some extra photos of my newest one:
For now she is wearing 12mm brown/gold glittery eyes, and a minifee wig that I sewed tighter in back so it won’t fall off. I may change those things later, but I didn’t really like blue eyes on her, and blonde wigs seemed a bit off π
I absolutely love her, she is even more beautiful in real life, and she looks even more cute next to Story!
She's home! And I might be addicted
I got two surprises in the mail today! I ordered a mohair wig on etsy, I wasn’t expecting it so soon but it arrived! And of course the lovely note telling me that my newest girl was waiting for me at the post office!
Since Luna got a new wig, and since the new girl is also a Luna, it was only logical to let her do the box opening this time π
Like I mentioned, she is a LOT bigger than I had imagined, and I’m afraid that I’m in love with her size. I love her big head, her tiny hands, everything! She was an impulse buy, and since I had never seen a pukifee in real life before I was naturally a bit worried that I’d made a mistake. It was kind of a mistake, since I now want to give her a sister her own size π Lol ^^ The joy of these dolls!
Well, thats it for now! I have to get her glass eyes and a wig, and soon she’ll be going on all sorts of adventures π
Holy grail box opening!
Ever since I got my tracking number I haven’t been sleeping well. I’ve had dreams as well as nightmares about this. I don’t know if you know what its like, to want a doll this bad, be completely sure you wont be able to get one until you’re 60, and when it suddenly happens its joy and fear at once, finally I’ll have her but what if I don’t like her and so on. Because sometimes the dream can be better than reality!
Well, since I knew she’d be at the post office today, I didn’t get much sleep at all. My nightmares included that the post had shipped her from my town to some other random town far away from here π
Anyway, I was up once at 5 am, and I got up again at 9 am, I didn’t even make a coffee before dressing and running to get her. Since this is my holy grail doll, I decided to do the box opening myself, and I apologize in advance for the horrid photos π
My conclusion: I love her.. I absolutely love her! I was prepared for her being a bit floppy, so I’m going to take her apart one day and clean her and string her a bit tighter, and of course eventually I’ll give her a new face-up, I’m thinking pink tones for her, and oooh my god how I love the resin! She has such a nice weight, and she is just… Honestly, I haven’t been able to put her down!
Her skin color is absolutely more yellow than fairyland NS, but she isn’t yellow in the sense that you look at her and think “oh my what a yellow doll”. I actually really love her color. And I love her “chunky” body, and I say chunky because I’m used to the amazingly skinny minifees, and I have to say its really comfortable to have a doll that looks more healthy, if that makes any sense at all.
I have one of my two holy grail dolls! I have my very own Lusis!! I can’t thank her previous owner enough, I promise that she’ll be loved for years to come, she’ll probably be spoiled rotten and won’t see the inside of her box other than for sleeping ;D
Oh, and I also promise to take better photos soon, the above photos don’t show even a third of her actual beauty!
