Bought a pair of 'wonder woman hair sticks' shaped like swords from Hot Topic. They are a good size for my 1/4 dolls and metal. My Dorothy Gale, warrior of Oz is going to look awesome.

Six Zuru 5 Surprise Mini Brands balls, four Simplicity clothing patterns for fashion dolls, three generic fashion doll shoe/accessory packs from Dollar Tree, and some yarn for hair for a doll I'm planning. (It's going to be an older man, so I thought yarn might work better for his shorter hair. Plus his glorious mustache.) It's been a dollieh binge day.

Basically all my money has been going to renfaire/cosplay attire. I'm a bit obsessed with the clothes from a local artist so yeah, I've been giving her all my monies the last few weeks. XD

I've had a bit of a dolly splurge (my my equivalent of a splurge) over the last month due to my birthday being in May. Won about three doll lot auctions, some of which had to be split with the EO (which was fine, because one was half-Liv and half Monster High and I was primarily interested in finishing off my set with a Hayden and the Liv In Wonderland Alexis that was in it. Got that one cheap because she turned out to have a slightly chewed foot.)

One of the other boxes was a bunch of very old dolls called World Of Love. Lot of duplicates there, Ended up with five of Love (one of which in bad enough shape she's flagged for some OOAKing fun, and the rest much better), and two of Peace. The EO kept one of each for her shelves,

The third box I got was a lot on ebay no one else bid on because of mold (the seller even admitted it smelled!), so I got the whole thing for $10. A lineup of Wizard Of Oz dolls that rinsed off just fine but are so poorly made I'm plotting to OOAK them into something better, a couple Belles (one in a fancy velvet red dress) and a Beast with no mask, a holiday barbie and a Snow White doll. The latter looks very fancy and so new her hair is stiff, like she was just taken out of the box.

Additional dolls picked up during that have been a Barbie Steven, what might be a Blaine, Count Dooku (for my horror actors shelf), one of the high school musical boys (who still sings), a chelsea for ooaking plans (actually bought new because I needed to hit free shipping from Amazon on other things), the boy from the world of love set, an Aurora from the Malificent movie dolls, and one new fashionista (the platinum and brown half-buzz-cut one with the camo skirt and orange top).

I spent somewhere between $50-$100 all together (since it was a splurge I did not try to track the math other than to watch account balances), which is a lot for me. But, birthdays make the best excuses.

I'm still trying to wrap up my splurge and my recent fit of nostalgea by getting my mitts on at least one Rose Petal Place doll...

Also in the process of major doll collection reorganization to make room for the new arrivals, and organization of associated 'social media' stuff as well. I definitely plan pics, but I may have to learn to use Flickr first. I'm currently considering various image hosting options since I can't figure out how to get any pics auto-uploaded to Amazon to embed anywhere without downloading them and putting them somewhere else, same with ones auto-sent to Facebook, and my tablet doesn't do anything else). I'm going to attempt this one of the WoL Adam doll, but if it doesn't work it's back to the drawing board and I need to walk the dog first.

(update) Ok, that didn't work and typing slow now because of possibly cracked finger, long story, new attempt at pictures!

Box 1, plus Dooku who arrived a few days earlier, and the Pregnant Midge I already had because her dress turned up in that lot.

My share of box 2, including the EO unloading some doubles that were a result of her MH half of the lot.

Aurora

The moldy box I got for $10 (counting shipping)

The World Of Love box, lots of duplication

The Amazon order

And World Of Love Adam.

The World Of Love dolls are older than I am (barely), which kind of makes them a cheery thing to get for birthday. (even if I bought all my own birthday gifts.)

I see Liv dolls, I have the one in black and red, she's from the Alice in Wonderland set.

I see Liv dolls, I have the one in black and red, she's from the Alice in Wonderland set.

Yep, she was the primary reason for buying that box. That was sort of a grail doll for a while (because of the skin tone issues with Alexis, my mind wants to classify the dark one as a different character than the light ones - I renamed her Rochelle), and I don't even mind that the one I got has a slightly chewed foot. I now have a full set of Liv dolls (including the boy).

I'm hoping to start learning wigmaking this year...
