Minty coming home

Pipos has shipped my mint ringo, and she is currently done with her stay at customs. I’m hoping I’ll have her monday, though I won’t be surprised if she takes a little longer.

I’m so excited to see her color, and I’m silently hoping they’ll do pink Ringo some time in the future 🙂

I also completely fell for Fairylands new release, Minifee Ingrid. However, with customs, the full set with one event head will cost me around $1200 which is an insane amount of money, even for a full set. I’ll be waiting to see owner photos and possibly order her blank some time in the future.

That’s it for now, I’ll come back with box opening photos as soon as she is home!

Whoops, another kitten ordered

That’s right, even if I wasn’t thrilled with Pipos after my twin kittens arrived, I went ahead and ordered a mint one 😛

I went with the 2014 version this time, not the limited version. I also ordered basic faceup, so let’s pray they dont mess up this time :S

I did contact Pipos about the twins faceups, and am waiting for an answer.

My dream is to have at least one more kitten, in Pink. Possibly also one more if they bring back the gorgeous brown they had many years ago. But for now, I’m done buying kittens!

My twin kitties are shipping!

I just got my shipping notification from Pipos, I managed to ask for combined shipping for them and they said they could do it 😀

I think I need to step up my sewing game, I haven’t made much for them yet! I do have some things laying around so they wont be naked, but pukifee clothes are often too long in the arms and legs, so I prefer making something that fits them better 🙂

I’m guessing shipping could be slower due to the state the world is in right now, but hopefully they’ll arrive safe and sound, I can’t wait to meet them!

First doll purchase since 2018!

I never expected Pipos to re-release the two kitties that I have forever regretting selling, but they kind of did!

The sweety vanilla ringo dollies are back, though without their adorable outfits. There was an option to choose other skin colors, but I chose white.

I was heavily considering getting both the dreamy eyed one as well as the open eyed, but I just couldn’t justify the cost. I went with the dreamy eyed since I already have an open eyed version of Ringo (that I still plan on adjusting the face-up on) and I am beyond excited to get her!

I did opt for the limited faceup as well, and hopefully I can sew something cute for her arrival!

Cant wait to meet you little cutie!

Major delay on Ringo

I can’t even think straight right now, customs have ignored my address in the national registry as well as the address on the package, and has shipped it to my moms address. I would have gotten her today, but now I either have to get my mom to pick it up  and wait until I visit her next, or I have to wait until it arrives at the post office, contact the post and get them to ship her to the right address!
The funny thing is that I’m also leaving the country next week, and it will take the post an amazing long time to get her from one city to another. I think the last time they shipped a package wrong (but within the same city) it took like a week to move it from one part of town to another.
I’m seriously bummed right now, I was so sure I was going to have a lovely box opening today. There is nothing to be done about it though.. I just have to keep checking the tracking and decide on if I want mom to pick her up or get her shipped to the right city.
How can these things even happen? Usually Norway has an amazing postal system, but the last month or so it has been absolutely horrid. Or rather, the customs have been horrible, that’s where the mistakes are being made.
Oh well.. My cat will reach me eventually, I just need to take a deep breath and adjust my expectations. I’ll have her eventually.

Ringo in Norway

My ringo is in Norway and has been released from customs 😀 If everything goes smoothly, she should be home tomorrow!
And I also contacted oscar doll, and they agreed to change one of the eyes I ordered from 16mm to 14mm, so the purple ones stay 16mm and will be for my Cygne, and the multicolor ones will come in 14mm 🙂
I’m so happy right now, my dolls are in a great place, I’m getting some nice eyes, and most of the faces I wanted to sell have been sold (only a LTF faceplate left).
I’m thinking of selling some unused wigs and clothes, but I dread putting stuff up on instagram or facebook. I also really hate going to the post office 😛 But I have so much stuff, and my tastes have changed so much over the years. I’m trying to purge old stuff from my house, and at some point I will have to purge doll stuff too.
I just cant wait to meet my little cat, I hope I have some nice eyes for her laying around 🙂

Pipos shipping notice!

Soon my new kitten will be home!
It’s a lot earlier than expected, I was hoping to make her a cute romper before she arrives, but she can wear pretty much all my pukifee stuff so it’ll be alright ^^
I cant wait to meet her soon

Waiting for Carol, first oscar doll eye order!

Carol is traveling to me, but has not reached Norway yet. I just cant wait to meet her, I’ve seen a few owner pics now and she has looked both gorgeous and less so 😛 I just hope I’ll love her when I get to see her in real life!
And thanks to a kind instagram-person, I decided to order some eyes for Cygne. I want to order some from mako too, but I decided to get a pair from oscar doll eyes this time. I’ve been struggling with eye size for Cygne, because she can wear my 14mm glass eyes and it looks great, but when I try on the 14mm urethane eyes I have, they seem too small. I saw this gorgeous vampire Cygne on instagram that had what I guessed was oscar doll eyes, and they looked like the perfect size, so I decided to ask her owner, and they were indeed 16mm oscar doll eyes! I like the eyes to be a bit on the big size for my dolls, I never liked the more realistic look with small eyes. Hopefully the eyes will be amazing, because I only have 1 doll that can wear them 😛
I ordered these, photos belong to oscardoll of course:

I’ve liked purple for Cygne so far, but I could not resist the ones with multiple colors, they were so magical looking!
It’s almost funny how I feel like I’ve bonded more with Cygne these last few weeks knowing another head is coming home 😛 I did also add to her faceup, gave her a little more color, and I’m really liking it. It was really pale in real life, so she looked a bit washed out honestly.

So this is her after some more eyeshadow and lipstick ^^
I think the purple eyes will look so great on her, hopefully they are a bit lighter than the ones she’s wearing in the photo 🙂

Carol is coming home sooner than expected!

I had a feeling when I saw someone else had gotten their fullset Carol already, and the host of the split contacted me today letting me know that the doll is on her way to her now!
I actually also got the wig from the fullset, the host decided she didn’t want it and I really like the look of it from the pictures, so I jumped on the chance 🙂
Apparently she’s expecting to pick her up in a week or so, and then she’ll send me the head and wig 🙂
I’m so excited, from the few photos I’ve seen she looks as gorgeous as she did in the promo photos, so my Cygne will maybe have to move into a box for a while 😛 I think I’ll try to get another body at some point, but I just dont have the space for two large girls.
