Every now and then I find mini LaLaLoopsies for super cheap. This week I found a double pack at Grocery Outlet and I couldn't pass it up.

Those are adorable. I've never actually seen one in person (downside of having no running car for a decade and thus not getting to windowshop at all), so... can you tell me how big they are? I might have to hunt a pack down online - I have 1/6 scale kiddie dolls that need toys. XD

The Minis are about 3 1/2" tall, depending on hair/hats and the fairies they had were about the size of the...baby minis? I don't know what those are called, but they're about 1 1/2". I took some scale pics for you with my Yo-SD. The bonus is they come with little accessories that are perfect for 1/12 and sometimes 1/6 scale dolls, too.






These are actually from the blind bags, but the scale is about the same as the baby minis.

Perfect 'big dolly for the little dolly' size! Definitely adding them to my wishlists now. Thanks for the pics!

Hi! It's me. :p
I may have slipped and bought a Limhwa Sujan. XD She's supposed to deliver next Tuesday. I haven't done a faceup in so long I'm afraid I may have forgotten how. I resisted for years. I could not resist any longer.

You'll do great! I love your faceups.

Thank you! *blushes* I'm really excited about her!

I bought some obitsu stuff for Rini.
Obitsu high heel feet
Obitsu L bust
Obitsu full body suit for the 40cm/45cm body
A pair of shoes for the high heel feet off of eBay.

I just ordered my first big swatch book. A whole thirty swatches. Roughly half are bandannas in a much bigger assortment of colors, but there are also ginghams and a couple more interesting things. All tiny and designed to be in-scale for 1/6 dolls (though some of the ginghams especially will also work for 1/3 and maybe 1/12). They should be here within the week and, providing they printed well and pass my home colorfastness tests, I'll share images.

Haven't bought anything new for the dolls since Patrick's body arrived and Jim's suit arrived. I bought myself a new yukata and two pretty matching obi.

Whitedove, the swatch book sounds fun!

Whitedove, the swatch book sounds fun!

It is! Or at least half fun and half informative. The swatches arrived and I'm happy to say the minidannas (Is that a word? Should it be?) all came out fine, and so did the confetti party print I put a lot of work into. Not so much with the ginghams this time. (But I know what went wrong and I'm pretty sure I can fix it for next time around. There's just a little learning curve regarding how the whole printing process works.) And, sadly, my rainbow plaid attempt came out a 'definitely not' - all the colors ran together. But, hey, this is why design proofing is done!

Images coming semi-soonish when I get all my ducks in a row.
