It arrived yesterday from my friend Trisha, to tell me the new Zwergnase Spoon Dolls had been released and were about to be posted on her website. I looked and it only took a second or two for me to fall in love all over again . . . and yes, I have pre-ordered Dalia.
A personal blog sharing my love of all dolls, 1:6 scale dioramas, doll fashion, sewing and knitting.
Everyone Needs Playtime
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.

Three Happy Kidz
I completely forgot to share the dolls my hubby bought me last Christmas. They are all Götz Happy Kidz. On the left we have Lea, in the middle Greta 75th Year Jubilee Special and on the right Elf Anne Christmas Signature Edition 2024.
Anne has a much smaller face than the other Götz Happy Kidz and was last seen as Anna Snow Rabbit for Christmas 2021, the next doll using the Anne mold to be released will be the Pippa Signature Edition 2026.
Here is Lea in her undies and already she is looking much prettier than before. I'm really not fond of the way Götz dresses their dolls. The quality of the clothes is usually pretty good, but some clothes are not age appropriate.
This face mold appears to be much younger looking to me and needs to look cuter, not older. I'm not sure whether I will do the same to her hair as I did with my first Greta, who I currently have her dressed in her night attire ready for bed.
My second Greta (below) will also need her name changed . . . any suggestions? The poor thing didn't have anything under her clothes except nickers and some crappy marks on her back and shoulder. I was not impressed! It looks like ink from a ball point pen, which is not easily removed.
Now Anne on the other hand, needs even more attention, but I'll leave her to another post.
Hugs,

Portraits of Lolly
Lolly Spoon arrived on the 20th this month, but until now I haven't had a chance to take photos. I changed her hairstyle just a little before taking these. It had gotten a little messed up during transport.
