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.

DIM Youra / Luts KID Hybrid

I have been working on Ondine, my hybrid water sprite and have just received her Safrin 10mm Green Ocean eyes. I really love the colour, however, I am wondering if they maybe a little large.
 
 
I'm looking for an honest opinion, do you think 8mm would suit her better?

Matching Resins

I received my DIM Youra head this week and was very pleased with the face-up. I couldn't wait to put eyes in, though I only had 10mm eyes on hand, which are a little small, so will need to order her a set of 12mm.

I'd been anxious for her arrival to see how she'd fit on the Luts KID body before ordering one, but after trying it on, it really didn't look right on the Luts body.

And so the trial began, on and off bodies until I tried it on my Iplehouse KID . . . what a perfect fit! Wasn't sure whether the resins would match and  I knew IH don't do bodies on their own, so I was hoping to find one on the second hand market.

I hit the internet, found nothing available on DOA. Then came across a post stating that DIM normal skin matched Doll-Zone normal pink, at which point I decided to check the DZ website and found the B45-012 girl body.


The body was not too big at the top or bottom, slender yet shapely and looked like it would suit Youra perfectly. Being the ridiculously impulsive person I am, I took a chance and ordered it. Along with my much desired Vanilla with default face-up, didn't bother with the wig or clothes though.


 I think her sad wee face is just gorgeous and I just had to bring her home. She will be called Destiny and will make a wonderful sister for Kismet. Considering the long wait I had with Choco, I am hoping that I may be lucky enough to have both home in time for Christmas!!

My Iplehouse Doll Choice dolls also arrived last week , but more on those two later when I have some clothes for them . . . don't want boy parts showing do we? :)
