Winter with Bree

We spent the Christmas with the in-laws, there was snow and ice and cold. Just like winter is supposed to have and I really like winter to be winter, instead of the slush wet stuff we many times have at the south. It did snow a little now, so maybe I'll have a chance to photograph some more snowy photos with other dolls. That would be great! 

 

I didn't post anything here since February when Bree arrived, and didn't introduce her properly for you all. She had a face up, body blush and a golden tattoo for the bust parts, manicure and pedicure made by talented Sarqq. Their input on my ideas was super good and I'm really happy to have this girl at home. I really love Bree so much. Her eyes are from SoulInABoxDolls from Etsy. Wig is random borrowed from one of my Shinyfairy girls, hat by Sharkyra, blouse/coat/jeans by me, socks by Junipa and shoes from Bluefairy. The fake leather from the inside of the shoes is crumbling, so I'm glad it's only from the inside so far since it's not been easy to get BF's shoes these days. I think they did one order period for the shoes and I was so bummed when I couldn't participate on that. Anyway! She still needs some of her own clothes and a wig but, I guess there's no rush and thinking before sewing/buying stuff will be even more important now that the shipping fees are raised everywhere becouse of you-know-what. 

It was really difficult to choose photos in this post. There will be many, I hope you enjoy these as much as I did when photographing her. ^__^

 

 

Bimong Narae N402 New Body arrival 24/02/2020

I've always loved Bimong dolls, I once had a Narin for a short while. I sold him, mainly becouse he was french resin doll but that didn't leave me without love for Narin and Narae. Since I know very well that boys are a challenge for me, girls on the other hand... I knew I wanted a Narae at some point. Mixing the sizes of faces and proportions were really difficult for me for long. I feel like I've been learning the proportions and different looks of dolls for this past 15 years with this hobby. I'm happy I'm still going on with learning more each day with these ball jointed dolls.

I ordered Narae face plate N402 with the new body on July 22nd 2019, definitely wanted two different busts and in light tan colour. I settled for layaway for 3 times but that was ok, I was really anxious to pay my order finally and begin waiting. She was shipped out and reached Finnish Customs in just two days. After that I of course paid the custom fee and something new from our national post company - delivery/keeping fee - and waited as their customer service chat bot said it'd take 3 days for the fee to reach them. As I was working on morning shift next week there wasn't a chance to call to the Posti customer service as I don't like to call from work since breaks are short and queueing for tens of minutes or even longer is out of the question, I have no chance to go to internet as using a personal PC isn't a part of my work. Posti CS was open until 4PM and I was just at home around that time, one day my fiance came to pick me up so I tried to call but it was no use. I then waited until my day off which was last Friday and finally found out that ALL PAYMENTS WERE JUST FINE AND THEY DIDN*T KNOW WHY MY PARCEL WASN*T SHIPPED OUT!! I also called to the Customs customer service and they said the same, both persons in the other end were really understanding and my parcel was released/picked up on Friday evening. I consider myself lucky, as far as I know there's been really big hassle becouse the system renewal on both Customs and Posti have messed things up a big time. Seems like their systems are totally not communicating at all. ANYWAY!

Finally I've got my precious box which was delivered straight at my home at Monday morning. Super exited to open it!


Obligatory wip cat shirt on the box to cover personal information. :D
