Some time ago I thought about purchasing one of these dolls, but wasn't sure which. I thought about it for so long, I eventually took them off my wish list altogether and forgot about them. However, having nothing better to do after Christmas than browse other dolly blogs, I came across them again, this time I saw them in a completely different light.
I hadn't recalled their height and when I noticed they were just 14.5" tall, I thought to myself "these dolls are the right height for me", so I browsed some more, looking at what others had done with them . . . some of the customised ones were really stunning! Anyway to cut a long story short I ordered, not just one, but two.

The site from which I ordered them, was in the UK (My Doll Best Friend). Firstly, because I had purchased from this site before and it was the only store where I could find both the dolls I wanted in stock. Secondly, and crazy as it may seem, because it also worked out cheaper and quicker to order from them,
I think both dolls will be so much fun to dress, probably in clothes that are casual and more suitable for play time, but perhaps a few others which will be very pretty and feminine, for when there's a party to attend. In the meantime I have knitted each of them a little day dress with a crochet hemline, and am currently working on a co-ordinating jacket.

Have any of my readers purchased any of these dolls? I would love to hear what you think of them and perhaps you could share some recent photos . . . I would love to see them.
