Exciting News!



Hi everyone,

 I recently heard that a doll company called Carpatina is making a colonial boy doll! It's truly a dream come true, since they are making him look historically accurate. He has the right hair, hat and everything:

So, I didn't make a blog post about American Girl turning down my idea to make a Ben Davidson doll  (they couldn't do it since they said they aren't allowed to use costumer's ideas).

I was too upset at the time to even think of making a blog post. (I am not saying that I don't like AG, I was just was disappointed in them.) However, just after they got back to me, I found out that Carpatina had announced they were making a colonial boy doll, and I found it even more interesting when I discovered he had all the things I had wanted Ben to have. (Minus looking like how they portrayed him in Felicity's movie.)

I found this too exciting not to blog about. :)

What do you think of the new boy doll? What is your favorite historical time period(s)?

Deborah Sampson (A Photo Shoot)



Hi everyone,
I try not to do two photo shoots one after another, but I really wanted to do this one so...
in this photo shoot Sarah is dressed as Deborah Sampson, a woman who disguised herself as man, so that she could fight in the Revolutionary war:





I like the camera setting I did for this photo, it makes it look 
somewhat like an old photo. 

Now this in the normal setting, I like the way it looks. 


I like this angle.

Which Photo is your favorite? And who is your favorite historical figure?
