Antique Pop-up Dollhouse

The other day when I went to Book Castle (a bookstore selling all-second-handed books) and I found a lovely pop-up dollhouse placed on the top of the book shelve but unfortunately, it was not for sale and so yesterday when I went to a nearby restaurant to have my lunch, I dropped by Book Castle to take some pictures of this lovely antique dollhouse ♥♥ So lets look at the lovely dollhouse ♥♥

♥♥Ground Floor: Study Room♥♥

♥♥Upper Floor: Bedroom♥♥

♥♥Ground Floor: The Dinning Room♥♥

♥♥Upper Floor: The Bathroom♥♥

♥♥Ground Floor: The Kitchen♥♥

♥♥Upper Floor: Another Bedroom (probably the maid's room for it looks smaller)♥♥

♥♥Ground Floor: The Staircase Hall Way♥♥

♥♥Upper Floor: The Hall♥♥

♥♥This dollhouse looks like the antique pop-up dollhouse that I see in my book of dollhouse and how I wish if I can make them in 1/6 scale to fit my dolls in♥♥

♥Yukata --> Waloli ♥

Making clothes for doll's closet since I got rid of my fear for dolls and I've finally finished making modifying my Re-ment yukata into a waloli which took me a week (including my time for my assignments and other activities else I can finish it in a day or two) ♥

I did not have a sewing machine (might buy if I make more clothes) and hence, during busy times for assignment, modifying is more suitable for me to handmade a new dress for my little darlings ♥

Image taken from ebay.com
Instead of making a waloli from scratch, I bought Re-ment's Girly Style yukata to modify it into a waloli and it took me few simple sewing steps to turn it into a waloli but unfortunately I was not able to take any pictures of the modifying steps for I only sew the waloli skirt when I'm free after my assignments =_='''

Finally finished it after modifying and correcting some error parts of the skirt ♥

Coordinated it with my newly bought pink lacey boots and red-striped socks from cool-cat from ebay which matches with her waloli ♥♥♥

Gave her a little rabbit plush to accompany her before I get a new sister for her ♥

Pullip Boots

Yesterday I've receive a small little package from cool cat, Taipei which is for Ralphina n_n ♥

Her pink boots has finally arrived n_n *excited*

I was surprised to see a pair of stripe pink socks when I turn the package around *o*

Not one but two pairs of stripe socks which are gifts from cool cat
♥♥♥♥♥

♥♥ The boots were packed nicely in transparent boxes which fit them just right ♥♥

Asides of the boots and socks, they have included a precaution note and a lovely thank you note ♥♥

How I hope that holiday will come sooner so that I can have some time to snap shot Ralphina in her new boots =_='''

Ralphina's First Outing

Yesterday, I brought her out to my uni since one of friend wanted to see her n_n

Forgotten to bring her little chair and hence, I have covered a box with a piece of fabric for Ralphina to sit on n_n

Posing for a picture with her doll's blog

Found her friend Tiphona Pullip on her blog news

While browsing around at WonderToys, I bought a present for Ralphina to add into her closet ^_^

♥♥Suits her pink socks and dress♥♥
It comes with a brown polka-dot bag and a cute mini camera but I will photo shoot her with her other accessories when I get the time to spent with her *_*

Sfoglia: My 1st Doll

Last Friday my package has arrived at my friend's house from Hong Kong n_n

I was excited about this package for it was my first Pullip doll, Sfoglia inside *o* ♥

The seller has made a good job in protecting my package *grateful* ♥♥

The box was nicely placed in the white poly-form box *so excited*

~My Sfoglia~
Some how the transparent window of the box was dented right at the nose position and I thought that it was made by my Sfoglia's pointy nose but it's impossible due to the fact that she was firmly tied up which made it impossible to get her nose to create the dented part o_o

Only the right side of the box is dented which should be made before the package was sent but luckily the doll and the things inside was not damage ^_^

♥ Back view ♥

♥ The left side was in perfect condition ♥

The stand instruction

Lots of tapes and wires to remove =_='''

It took me half an hour to remove my Sfoglia from these wires and tapes...
