As we watched everyone arrive, we realized that perhaps this year, we may have slightly over-invited.
Hmmm....some of these haven't been here before. I wonder if some aren't party crashers??!!! (Well, at least they knew to dress for the event! And their invitations do look legit!)
Oh wait.....I totally forgot about the party upstairs.
In any case, all of my dolls wish all of your dolls.......and this doll mom wishes all of you doll moms and dads......
A Very Healthy, Happy and Fashionably Dressed Doll-filled 2018!
Love,
April & company
Happy New Year! Everyone looks gorgeous!

Hi Rosa. This is the time of year, my dolls really look forward to! (And so do I). Thank you so much for your friendship and I too, wish you all the best in the year to come.
DeleteHappy New Year! I'm very impressed with your displays, all the dolls are so fashionable and go so well together! You can even mix 16" with 12" dolls like it's no big deal and mine always look awkward when I put same sized dolls from different brands together...
ReplyDeleteThank you, BlackKitty. As you can imagine, this takes some time. After I figure out who wears what, the next step is to figure out where to place everyone so I can see them when I take the annual "family portrait." Some of the 12" dolls are standing on cups and little boxes. So by putting the 16" girls at the back, it all seems to work together. In any case, thank you for your continued friendship!
DeleteHappy New Year! It is great to see all your dolls and fashions!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great collection of dolls! Very beautiful outfits!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!
Eunice, thank you so much for your very kind words. I do feel blessed to have such a diverse collection of beauties. Thank you so much for stopping by!
DeleteHappy New Year!
ReplyDeleteWishing you, Dlubaniny, a wonderful year ahead as well!
DeleteWonderful outfits! I can't stop looking on them. They're so beautiful...
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! :)
Thank you so much for the lovely compliments. This is one of my favorite times a year! Happy 2018 to you as well.
DeleteI love your collection! Lots of beautiful dolls there! I love how they are displayed ontop of the piano! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteThank you. so much for the kind words. I started out with Barbie Model Muses and 1 Tonner (Esme) doll. I am amazed how my collection has grown! Wishing you all the best in the year to come! Thank you for your visit.
DeleteLOL!!! I think your girls invited just about every other doll in the area over to this party!
ReplyDeleteI think you are right!!! They might have even sent out their own invitations to some nearby toy store as well! In any case, they are STILL atop the piano......and still partying!!!!
DeleteI have a question, do you have any articles or advice for making a pattern for a sheath dress, but in a princess seam style instead of the usual bust and or under arm darts? I've seen this princess style & would love to try and make it! For my FR16 Hanne! Yes the same girl who asked about her boots. :) Thanks. Ps its getting tempting to purchase another FR16. Fashion dolls are very addictive!
ReplyDeleteDolls are TERRIBLY addictive! What started out as a small collection of Barbies has turned into Doll City!!!
DeleteAs far as the princess line sheath is concerned.....do a search here on my blog for a post entitled, "Princess Diaries." That is a tutorial on a basic princess line dress. Instead of flaring out the side seams to create a flared dress, ignore that step and skip to the step where you join the bodice to the skirt.
Thank you! :)
DeleteThis post put an enormous smile on my face. I just love seeing all your dollies gathered for a good time. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteSo happy you enjoyed this post, Jewell. This is always such a festive time of year. Dressing up the dolls for the holidays simply adds to the festivities! Wishing you all the best in the year to come.
DeleteBardzo dziękuję za życzenia i Tobie również chcę życzyć w Nowym Roku 2018 wszystkiego najlepszego! Zdrowia, miłości i szczęścia!
ReplyDeleteNiech te lalkowe, przepiękne projekty nadal będą Twoją wspaniałą pasją!
Masz cudowne lalki a stroje są jak z bajki! Cudne! Fantastyczne!
Pozdrawiam noworocznie!
