Helen's Doll Saga

Before & after

dollsaga — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 20:12:58 +0000

this doll has a dirty repaint. although the picture doesnt show, her original facial paint was not completely removed, and the new paint added more mess. the blushes on her cheeks are so terrible, like the marks left by bathroom water damages

I wiped off all of her dirty paint, now she has a blank face.

now the transformation begins:

She wears violet-toned eye makeup, soft pink lipsticks, her eyebrows give her a little attitude she needed to protect herself.

well, actually, she needs a new dress, but that would not be my responsibilites. i am sure her owner will dress her up properly.

new girls on the block

there are many new dolls in the stores now, 12 Barbie Basics, bond girls, Dolls of the World, Ladies of the 80’s, My Favorite Career Collection and more, etc. etc… Check them out:
Barbie Online Store

I am not in very good mood for more dolls. I probably will order one Bond girl Halle Berry. the rest will be put on hold. I am sure these 12 Barbie Basics will be all over the places like these Birthstone Beauties. its better I pick them up at MarShall’s or AJwright.

Lavender Debut

This certainly is one of the most beautiful Debut Dolls. someone called her a “Dream Doll”

letting go of the ken

I let go of the Pop Life Ken, he isnt more Handsome than my Fashion Fever Kurt. I am still waiting for a perfect Ken doll….

did you see the Jacob doll? he looks like a 14 year old, which I dont have much interest. so, when being asked what we thought about him on Twitter.com, I replied: he looks like Sugar Daddy Ken’s youngest Grandson. lol

one day I read a comment about Ken online, it made me laugh “growing up, my sister & her friends had Ken dolls, I had GI Joe, my GI Joe always beat Ken, as Ken alwasy had issues” lol –its so ture.

Barbie is in high glee!

Beauty of an autumn leaf

on my way back to home from Post office, I saw this piece of fallen leaf, lying on the ground, its beauty amazed me. you can pretty much see the 4 seasons in this one leaf… its dying but it refuses to let go…

Mod Ken

Here comes my silkstone Ken, the black/white checker shirt is not finished, it could look great if I find him a red tie.

its much easier to make Barbie’s strapless gowns. Jacket, shirt,blouse, coat.. things involve collars, sleeves are hard to work on, as their are too tiny, its very hard to assemble pieces together. besides they are not as glamorous as evening gowns, so the work is boring as well, but ken needs a shirt!

After putting hours & hours of work on ken’s shirt & pants, I wouldnt want to make 2nd set:

red head ken

ha, I found this old picture, can you believe it, I have worked on Ken as well, I think he scared some people, but he looks fine to me. anywya, he was grabbed by an ebay buyer as soon as I was ready to dump him. lol

purple debut

Debut, she has purple hair!

all the Barbies have arrived!

dollsaga — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 02:37:14 +0000

finally, all the Barbie dolls I ordered online have arrived. I receive dolls almost everyday. Now I have no pending orders. I am going to take a break–I wont order more dolls until I can clean up my bedroom–I piled up these new arrivals in my bedroom, that’s really a bad thing to do.

my last newest addition is the silkstone Show Girl! I missed her when BC put her on sale, I had to buy her from eBay, box is damaged, but the doll is fine.

My Pop life Ken finally arrived, I was worried about him, I thought I have lost him.

he looks fine, much better than “Palm beach” Sugur Daddy Ken.

Speed Racer remains as my favorite Ken
