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.

They Have Arrived!

Yes, after a month touring the world my Kitty and Sindy have finally come home. I'm sorry the photos aren't better, but I am still looking to find a decent photo editing program.



I'll take some more photos of Kitty later when I change her into the lilac outfit and hopefully by then I'll have better photos to share.




I'm happy with both dolls, though I cannot for the life of me manage to put Sindy's earrings in. I think I'll have to try using a hot needle to pierce all the way through her vinyl, but if someone else has any better suggestions please let me know.








I hope you are all enjoying your dolls, I'm going to enjoy some down time from blogging for a few days, so I can finish off some overdue projects. However, I will be popping in now and then to catch up reading your blogs. :)

Another Tonner Doll

I thought it was about time I added a Sindy doll to my collection, and I was going to keep this as a surprise until she arrived. However, it's been over a week (almost two) since I last posted here and I am so excited I had to tell you, that thanks to Sally, I am bringing her home with Kitty.

I would have liked to find a genuine Pedigree Sindy, but alas I could find none who looked so elegant.

This beautiful Tonner eleven inch Sindy Bridal Bliss, wears a gorgeous glitter tulle dress over a white petticoat and undergarment pantyhose with attached panties. Rhinestone earrings and tiara with attached veil, faux flower bouquet and white elastic shoes complete her bridal ensemble.

Sindy has blue hand-painted side glancing eyes with applied eyelashes, brown rooted Saran hair and her skin tone head and body are made of fine quality vinyl and hard plastic.

I doubt very much if I will re-dress this doll, as she is so beautiful just as she is, and there's not a bride doll anywhere else among my collection. Now isn't that a sad state of affairs? I wonder if that means I should look for another. 😁

NOTE: I have also contacted Pedigree themselves, to see if these dolls are still being manufactured and if so, where they can be purchased.
