1960 35mm Kodachrome slide photo of an unknown girl and her doll.  It looks like this doll is a 21 inch one and probably made by IDEAL.  Do you recognize the doll? She looks similar to a Saucy Walker but I'm not sure.

April Fools!

Image
I thought the calendar was playing a trick on me! I cannot believe it is April already.  I still feel like we just had Christmas holidays. It doesn't help that it is SNOWING outside as I write this. I'm taking matters into my own hands and making some "outdoor" backgrounds and props because I am ready for some greenery and flowers.   Watch for my tutorial on making an easy peasy fence for your doll photos. Happy Friday!!!  

Throwback Thurday - Marigolds and Minis

Image
Happy Thursday! Almost the weekend yay! Throwback to a few summers ago when I made a little village in all the marigold planters.   I love putting minis in flower pots. They seem to last better in planters and pot than under trees.  The squirrels and birds knock things over to look for food and insects when I attempt stuff under trees. Last year a branch fell on my Fairy garden ( You can see the aftermath here lol ) Since then I have picked up a few more houses at Goodwill for my planters so spring better hurry up so I can start planting.
