The one I'd like to put on layaway. The one I actually want. Is Dream of Doll Tender Bee-A. I'd want her to be second hand, though, because with the big dolls second hand ones are easier for me to love. She could even have a few stains. Wendy-doll has those, and they don't take from her at all.

But yes. A pretty little Bee-A with dreamy eyes and that neat little body that was so pretty. I've liked them since I first saw them, and liked them even more after I actually got to see one and play with her.

Maybe someday....

I TOOK OPHELIA APART, AND I'M NOT SURE WHICH LEG IS WHICH!!!!!

XD whoops?

Big ones and smaller ones.

The big ones are about standard height, with a much prettier face than those that most Domuya dolls have. She fascinates me even though I'm not into thin, long legged dolls or ones that skinny. I think that if I had the money that I would buy her just to explore, and then pass her on to one of my friends, as I often do with less expensive dolls.

The small ones are also very pretty, though the one with the strong jaw shouldn't wear short frilly outfits like that one they show her in. It makes her look like a drag queen. A face like that needs classy clothes. The molded on shoes that one can buy for them are quite interesting to me.

The breasts for both sizes are much more realistic than most ABJD breasts, though seeing the pretty 'natural' ones next to those poor skinny ribs is distressing.

*grabby hands* Don't wanna own, but REALLY wanna play! XD

Still liking Ophelia. Been playing mostly with Molly and Dot lately.

This morning I decided to hot glue suede Ophelia and switch one of her hands to a fist.

Well, I couldn't get the other hand on. Not having fishline, I was trying three strands of embroidery cotton. No dice. It looks like I'm going to have to go out and buy a whole spool of fishline if I want to put a hand back on her.

She holds her head better now, but even with the glue her legs are still difficult. And I can see that the glue will probably need pretty frequent reapplication.

*Sigh* I'm starting to think that she's too much doll for me. :(

But I WANT her. She's named for my kitty that died.

Jesus, I don't know what to do. Hobbies aren't supposed to cause stress.

The mail lady called bright and early this morning.


She's a kicky, squirmy little thing. But she meets my minimum criterion of being able to sit up and stand on her own. Her legs are wired, but she still twitches and suchlike. I'm not sure if it's safe to have her clothes on her before she gets coated with Dullcoat, and I'm looking at how she's put together and trying to think if I would be able to coat her without taking her apart. Because with those tiny fishline loops on her hands n feet I'm not sure I could get her back together. Her head I'm a little more confident about... but I'm trying to just approach her slowly so that I don't get overwhelmed like I did with that big Obitsu that I had.

Erm, am I a grouch if I admit that I don't really see what all the fuss is about? Don't get me wrong, she's beautiful and tiny and I like her muchly- muchly, but BJD still don't hit me as the ultimate doll.

LOL, but I can so see her becoming the family cat. She's the right size in relation to everyone else and all that. So the cat walks upright and wears clothes, so do a lot of teddy bears.

I don't know if I'm going to paint her at all. The cat I loved was white on hot days. This one is tentatively named after her for now. Feely-cat.

Wow, now I find that I miss Ophelia.
