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.

Curly Locks

Irene wanted a new hair do, so I purchase two of these wigs from JPop Dolls. They have the sweetest tiny tight ringlets I have ever seen, I love them!

The style is Shelli and this colour is French Chocolate, it's very dark, almost black and it looks lovely with Irene's skin. The other colour I chose was Cafe, but more on that one later.

Hope you are all having a great time with your dolls and projects. We are still up to ears in renos, but gradually whittling it down. Will make time Friday to do the rounds and catch up with you all.

Ladybug Settee Cover

Sorry I have been missing in action for so long, but I have been very busy . . . you know how life gets in the way of dolly time every now and then. However, I have managed to make a new cover for the pink settee and a new cushion as well as recovering the red heart cushion, so everything now matches in nicely with the rest of the furniture.

Ziorina: Thanks for the new settee cover and the new cushions!

Ante: These cushions are really comfy, I can lay back on them and simply relax.

Ante & Ziorina Go Shopping

The girls found these at Ikea, Springvale . . . 6 pieces (bookcase, settee, pillow, chair, table and rug) for just $14.99. I'm not over the moon about the combination of colours, but that can be easily fixed with some fabric and a little imagination.
