Everyone Needs Playtime

In our hectic, modern lives, many of us focus so heavily on work and family commitments that we never seem to have time for pure fun. Somewhere between childhood and adulthood, we stopped playing.

When we carve out some leisure time, we’re more likely to zone out in front of the TV or computer than engage in fun, rejuvenating play like we did as children. But play is not just essential for kids; it can be an important source of relaxation and stimulation for adults as well.

There doesn’t need to be any point to the activity beyond having fun and enjoying yourself. By giving yourself permission to play with the joyful abandon of childhood, you can reap oodles of health benefits throughout life.

Seven years ago I issued a challenge to celebrate 20 years of the modern BJD, that I had also done three years previously. As things have be...

Inspired

Well, even if I'm not,  it appears our Coles supermarket is.


I have managed to collect these items so far. Is anyone else in Australia collecting these tiny versions of their local grocery shop?

When I first saw the advertising for these mini items, I thought "Great, just what we needed for our dolls". However, they are definitely not to scale.


Really! Have you ever seen a tube of toothpaste as big as a pack of baby diapers?

I can see I will need to separate them for use with different size dolls, but in saying that, they do look okay together in a shopping trolley.


And luckily for me, I also have two sizes of trollies to cope with the size variances. :)

Hope your week is off to a wonderful start and you're feeling inspired. :)

I'm Still Here!

My heavens I don't know where the time is going this year, it seems to be just flying by. I haven't purchased any dolls for so long and haven't got a lot of news to share either. I finally managed to sell my Volks body and head which means I no longer have any huge resin dolls.

Also decided to sell my Iplehouse BID Ah-ra as I just haven't been able to motivate myself to do her faceup and she's remained in her box for over 12 months . . . full details on DoA with more photos if anyone is interested.


I have been knitting, but not doll clothes and I have spent a small fortune on new clothes . . . a little reward for loosing 10k. 😊

I'll try and catch up with all your blogs soon.
Hugs,
