Blythe photos + discussion thread :3

Congrats on Jane Ficklefae . I have noticed you got her of course . She is awesome with her hair fixed so well. And I never realised her stock outfit was so nice. Reminds me of the costume dramas I'm so fond of .

Sorry I have been terribly busy with school so forums haven't been a priority. But I do a little work here and there with the Blythes. I am almost ready to sell the Cinnamon Girl. I won't be doing any more reroots for sale for a long while, that's for sure .
And I have a plan for making a female version of Link from The Legend of Zelda games including a outfit made by my friend . Really excited about it, though I might not be able to get her done for a while. Depends when her outfit will be ready as well.

Thank you sweetie her stock is gorgeous. Very well made and the outer dress is much heavier than I would have thought.

I've missed seeing you around. I totally understand the busy all the time though. Link sounds adorable!

Here but been busy with RL so been mostly absent from forums and the like.
Jane is lovely! I'm loving the outfit in the second pic you posted of her (especially the hat) but the long dress looks stunning as well.

Thank you love! I didn't see your post.

I'll be more active when I have time . Lately I have only taken a few photos, but at least I haven't stopped completely. Here's a few of my recent pictures anyway.

They're all gorgeous but I think your brunette is my all time favorite

[Buzzingbumblebee]

Thank you ^_^. Cinnamon is gorgeous, I wish I could keep her but I need the money more . I'm on the last row of her reroot, and I will force myself to finish it tomorrow!!  I'm so not happy two of my planned future projects will need reroots as well . Both of those are for myself. I'm thinking I should get someone else to do one of them, or it will take forever. One is based on a character from a series of books I love. Her hair needs to be dyed fiery red . And I don't have the skills for that anyway .

Sully short for Sullivan came home on Wednesday . That was the name her previous owner gave her, and I like it ^_^. So happy to finally have my grail, a vainilladolly custom . I have swapped two pairs of eyechips on her today. Swapped Brainworm eyechips for Puppelina eyechips. I have a few pairs saved for special girls . I love her so much!

Sully is adorable! I really love the first set of eyes! Congrats on getting a grail!

[Buzzingbumblebee]

Thank you . I feel a need to spoil her, but I'm broke so I guess I will need to practise sewing and make something for her .

This thread is starting to disappear.  
Gotta breathe some new life in.
Though its like five months late in coming I finally got pics of my first and only Middie Mary Anne that Hannah gave me for Christmas. Wearing her new outfit my mom gave her for my birthday with some socks I found on etsy that matched surprisingly well and a handbag that she stole from a EAH Goldie that is being customized to be Alice from Alice in Wonderland.
Here's a few pics from her photoshoot.

I am in love with her!

Here's another with her bestie Lo (Hannah's Yellow Marshmallow)

I am dying to have a Middie one day! I think Twinkle Princess, Melomelomew, and Macaron are at the top of my list.

I do have a question for you all on this thread though. I'm fairly new to the Blythe world and customizing, but I'm really curious as to people's travel practices with their girls. Do you take them on outings with you? Do you carry them in your bag always? Can you take them on planes? I'm going to the Renaissance fair this weekend and to Bonnaroo next month and would really like to take my newest girl with me to both. Any suggestions?

Here are my girls that I've made so far.

This was a girl I made this time last year, my first, but I never finished her sadly :/ I just wasn't in love with her enough. But I did reroot her entire scalp, which was an incredible undertaking I was not fully prepared for

Then my second, Piper, I made to kind of be the 'girly' one.

And my latest, Paloma. I've already taken her to Atlanta with me to see Cirque du Soleil, and some of the performers from the show liked the picture I posted on instagram

So any advice? It would be much appreciated!

OMG Macaron is like my Middie Grail!!! Though I didn't even know Mary Anne existed until I unwrapped her at Christmas or she would've been high on my list just for having such cute stock and being Wonderland themed if nothing else. xD
The furthest I've taken any of my girls at the moment is maybe a 45 min drive away, and then she just sat in my lap in the car or beside me next to my sister's doll. We were going to look at a craigslist lot of doll clothes and accessories so we thought it would be a good idea to take them along to make sure things would fit.
I don't know that I could put my Blythes in a bag but then the only bag I carry usually that is large enough for them to fit in has a habit of swallowing everything around it and whether or not you get it back in a timely manner remains to be seen. Lately I've been taking tinier dolls with me when I go anywhere, I have a AI girl that fits perfectly in a hard glasses case I have and she goes into it and it goes into my pocket.
If I had a bag specifically for carrying my Blythes I might put them in one, been thinking about tracking down a cute diaper bag at a thrift store or something that I could modify to hold one or more of them securely.

[mothums]

A diaper bag is a good idea! I never thought about that. And that's so cool! I wish I had a friend or sister to share interests with like that
Thanks for the response!
