Simply Alice...

The Toy Shoppe features another sketch of Kim Lasher's new SD-sized BJD, Simply Alice. I think I love her! Her little face is so sad!

Her wig will be blonde mohair, and she will have glass blue eyes. Her dress will be made of blue cotton, and she'll be wearing black and white striped tights with black patent leather shoes. Plus she'll have a key necklace.

And she's 23 inches tall. I just love her! I can't wait to see real photos. They should be available after IDEX (the last week in January).

Inroducing Cami & Jon™...

Tonner Doll Company will be unveiling Cami & Jon™, the newest collection of fashion dolls in the 2010 line at IDEX this month. You can register for the event (by January 22, 2010) for $85, and be the first to receive the first doll from the line. The program will be held on Sunday, January 31, 2010 at 8:30 AM.

Cost for the breakfast, program presented by Robert Tonner and the event souvenir doll from the debut collection is included in the registration, in addition to eligibility to receive door prizes. The Tonner newsletter regarding this line featured only one hint:

"We can only reveal one secret about this brand new doll...  She features the same body as Antoinette™."

Tuesday Tea for Two

Melin and Kai, originally uploaded by alington.

It's time for tea, and Melin found something in her cup. It's Kai, who is none too happy. Again, nothing seems to make Kai very happy! We do what we can around here. See the rest of the photos here.

The dolls are: Elfdoll Kai, who is 14 cm (5.5 inches), dressed in a gown by Clochette of Pixiedust Designs and Melin (full set) by Dollzone, who is 45 cm (17.75 inches).

This post is the brain child of Wanda Lee of the Plumed Pen, who hosts these online Tea for Two tea parties every Tuesday. You can participate, too. Visit her website for details!

More sleeping beauties

Melin and Olivia, originally uploaded by alington.

Dollzone Melin and Elfdoll Olivia were pleased to get some photo time yesterday. I am finding I enjoy the challenge of combining larger and smaller scale dolls, and I'm trying to find creative ways to take photos of both scales together.

You can check out the rest of the photoshoot on Flickr.

Now, before my house really falls to pieces around me, I'd better get back to work!
