Dollieh Sanctuary

My new girl arrived this morning: Tonner's Trixie, Patsy's friend. This is the basic model. They had a dressed one too but I didn't like the dress well enough to pay for the extra amount.

I named her Maya Mae after writer Maya Angelou and astronaut Mae Jemison.

She's got the most adorable face, but I am not liking the afro.

It's a glued on wig, but it's likely I will be pulling it off and getting her something different. I may try to trim it down first. It's so big, it's obscuring her face!

Here she is in the new dress I made for her.

She is a cute doll and has a sweet face. I really like the dress you made for her. It is adorable on her. How tall is she?

She's adorable! I love her in the dress you made.

Thanks! She is 10" tall, but I usually put her & the Patsy dolls in this forum because they are in proportion with my other 1/4 size dolls. Kinda like little sister dolls.

Is the wig braid-able? I always had pig tails as a little girl.

I do many things well, but hair is not one of them! I tried some braiding, combing, fixing and finally just washed it. She looked even worse!

So I got out the scissors:


Much, much happier with this look! I think she looks adorable! I may still pull it off and use other wigs, but this will be her default for now. I blew my budget on shoes/boots for my 10" girls, so new wig will have to wait til next month anyway. She's got her new patent white maryjane shoes on.

I am also now tempted to start cutting on my American Model's afro wig. Maybe.

Oh, yes - so adorable without the wild child hair!

Awww! She is adorable with her new hair cut. The little flowers were the perfect touch.

I love her new 'do!

Oooo. Her hair looks so much cuter with the shorter hair cut. You did a great job for some one that said they don't do hair so well. *grins*
