Dolls For Natural Disasters and For Children in Hospitals (Part Two)

                                                      You can read the first part here 

Hello everyone, this is my 100th post!!

 I thought I would bring this project up again since I have some updates. The basic premise of this, is that I am getting dolls from Ebay and a thrift store and fixing them up, in order to send them to people in hospitals or elsewhere. 

So, I have a lot of dolls that I am fixing and making for people. While doing so I got the idea that the people receiving the dolls could write stories about the dolls and their adventures (and possibly take photos of the dolls, if they are able). I would post them on my blog and say it was by whoever submitted it. (It would be a bit like From a Friend Friday.) I'm not sure how they will submit the stories yet, but I am thinking through a way similar to Google Forms. (I can't use Google Forms itself because the pictures end up being out of order.) Also, if anyone knows of something like Google Forms to send basically blog posts through that would be really helpful. 

I am also working on finding a place to send the dolls to. The place I am thinking of sending the dolls to may not end up accepting them. Even so, I was able to give a doll to a little girl in 2020, but not through any organization. 

The other updates I have to share are related to the dolls themselves. I fixed up a Belle doll and tried to make her a dress inspired by the one in the movie: 

And I also have a Jasmine doll that I fixed up and made clothes for: 

And there are other dolls as well, but I thought these two were the best to share, for now. I have others that I still need to clean the hair of, make clothes for, or even repaint.

Doll photography 1#

I have been trying to get into the habit of taking photos of my dolls everyday...
These posts will be very similar to the drawing posts I have on my writing blog, though I will still do photo shoots and photo stories.

Here are some of the photos I took:

                                 A photo I took of Cerise's shoes...
                                I have to say it was fun to take.

                                 

                                          A photo of Tracey, it turned out well...
                                        And the lighting in the background is pretty.

This photo of Belle for some reason never got into
the photo shoot  even though it was one of my favorite
photos I have taken of her.

                                          I think this photo of Tauriel turned out well...

                                           I like the angle of this photo.

A photo of Blondie's ring... (Unfortunately, it doesn't make the wearer of it invisible...
on the other hand if it did that, then I would be losing my dolls all over the place because I couldn't see them.)

A photo of Hera... 

I like her pose in this photo. 

------------------------------------------

Which photo is your favorite? 

Love,

Tale as old as time (a photo shoot)

Hi everyone, 

I had been working on several other draft posts (One of which is a photo story)

before deciding to post this one. Anyway I thought it was 

a good time to do a photo shoot...

Here are the Photos: 

I like this picture of Belle... 

I like how the lighting turned out. 

This picture is one of the best photos I have taken 

of the beast. 

This one is one of my favorite pictures. 

The lighting in this photo wasn't as good. But I like 

the pose of the dolls. 

This one shows a good angle of both Belle and The Beast. 

I like the angle of this picture.

Though I didn't get her dress in the picture fully, 

I can imagine her spinning around in it. 

----------------------------------------

Hope you liked the photo shoot..I enjoyed taking the photos!:) 

Which Photo is your favorite? And do you have a favorite song from Beauty and The Beast? 

Love, 

Quinley
