Found And Purchased A Sophia Loren Looking Blythe Doll!

  I was looking for a short haired wig for my Selena Gomez Blythe doll and I found this little darling diva instead!  It comes with a bunch of different hands too that I can change up.  I've never had this type of Blythe like doll before.  I did have a couple other fakes but I gave them to my niece because she started liking Blythe and I made her outfits for them too.  All the details are on Blythe411 The Original and Off Topic Blythe Facebook group !  I have a total of 23 full sized Blythe dolls including the new girl, 1 Middie Blythe and 6 Petite Blythe dolls.  To think I was trying to get down to only one full sized Blythe doll!  I was in a lot of pain though because I lost my father and my 15 and a half year old dog.  It wasn't long enough, I wish my darling little Franco could have lived until at least 50.  I miss him so much and my dad too but I am fortunate to have such great memories and lots and lots of pictures and even some vi...

My Selena Gomez Inspired Blythe Doll is Complete But!

I received the wig for my little Selena today and it was a bit small.  The seller stated it was a Blythe accessory but I think it was for a BJD.  I stretched it and made it fit but it's not secure or anything.  It looks really great though so I am going to keep it but I'm not buying from them again.  I did ask on Blythe Customization Facebook group what I could do to make it fit better but no word back yet.  I also asked the seller what I could do and hopefully they will respond back soon.

Gina Is A Rare Beauty In A Selena Gomez Inspired Outfit

  I was searching for something fashionable and fresh for my lovely Gina to wear and I went though my box of dolly clothes and pulled out a cute pink polka sparkly dress I found in a thrift shop that I think is barbie and a sparkly pinkish mauve knit cardigan that I found at a parking lot sale. I had some adorable sparkly clear Takara Blythe shoes also! This is the look I got inspired by Selena Gomez. I call it My Rare Beauty. Yes I'm a fan of hers! She dropped a new single yesterday and I caught the premier on Youtube! Selena is such a talented and beautiful girl inside and out too. She has been through a lot but she keeps smiling and not let that nasty stuff get to her. I think she's a great role-model! Do you have an outfit you put together on your Blythe you'd like to share? Please feel free to post it on here too or if you are a member of my Facebook Group Blythe 411 The Original and Off Topic Blythe! Thanks and I hope you all have a great we...

Recently Back From An East Coast Canada Road Trip With Blythe For Halloween!

     I find that fall is a good time to travel.  It's not that hot usually and it's not busy.  Hotels are priced better out of season too.  We usually fly to visit our family in Halifax but this time my husband wanted to do a road trip so we could see more sights along the way!  It was mild and warm this fall so we were lucky. First stop was Montreal then Quebec City in Quebec.  In Quebec City we went to a Halloween exhibition at the city hall and fair downtown.  Next was New Brunswick where we saw the Grand Falls and coasted up Magnetic Hill, then PEI aka Prince Edward Island where our hotel had a neat little pumpkin carving contest and then Halifax where we had a wonderful time with our family out there.  We even went to a Christmas Fair on Friday night.  It was so much fun.  On Halloween day we spent the afternoon thrifting and we went to 5 thrift shops!  It was so wonderful!  So many cute and interesting things bu...

Sold 2 Neo Blythes But No Longer Selling Others Right Now

  I decided to not sell off all my dolls.  I sold two of my Ashton Drake Blythes Kozy Kape and Medieval Mood to a nice lady in the UK but after that I decided to hold off.  I started playing with my dolls again by dressing them up, making clothes and taking pictures.  I made that purple bad and skull dress for my Gina recently too.  I got the pattern free from Blythe 411 Facebook Group.   Currently I'm at 20 full size Blythe dolls, 7 Petite Blythe dolls and one Middie.  Selling the two dolls made me miss them also so I'm still not ready to go to one doll yet.  Maybe in five or ten years but not right now.  I don't really collect many things anyways and I stopped buying new dolls so there is no harm having the dolls I have now.   Anyways, that's the current update with my Blythe doll collection.  I will be posting another blog shortly about my East Coast Canada road trip with my Lounging Lovely SBL Blythe doll Veronica aka ...

Update! Couldn't Do It!! On My Journey From Twenty-Five Neo Sized Blythe Dolls To One

My completed Blythe Doll Collection I've been collecting Blythe dolls since 2001 and my first Blythe doll was a 1972 Kenner Blythe doll that I found for $15 US thanks to a Pennysaver ad.   My first Full Sized Blythe doll a 1972 Kenner Blythe I went on to amass over 25 full sized Blythe dolls but I sold a few along the way.  Now I am determined to sell off all but one of my dolls.  You see my beloved dog passed away in February 2022 and I was truly heartbroken.  I all of a sudden had to declutter to get my mind off of it.  I began selling things I didn't use or need anymore online and then I decided to start saving for another puppy.  I even sold off my Playstation one with my favorite Crash Bandicoot games for $250 Canadian!!  I hadn't played it in years and it was just sitting there.    I felt that all those things were a burden and if I wanted to travel the world someday then I had better start now anyways.  I felt great doin...
