Halloween Journey - Day 6

Vintage - Remembering the inexpensive haunting fun fashions from Ty Girlz -

That skelly look

Fashions with an NCIS Abs look

Halloween Journey - day five

My DH went to Ikea in MN while visiting his offspring;he came home with this gift for me -

Neighbor visited with her Irish Setter today. Pretty soon we saw sweet Lucy walk past with my Ikea rat dangling gently from her mouth. Embarassed, my neighbor rescued the rat and stated that Lucy loves/has her own stuffed animal collection. The dog won't go to sleep unless she is snuggled next to one.

Wait - I wonder if I could get Lucy intersted in collecting dolls - and starting a club per chance????

Halloween Journey - days three and FOUR

Turns out Mortimer does have a family - large and happy at that! Mort and Amanda were very young when they wed. : ) Luna is their oldest - Tempe is the youngest. However - they are always adopting more - so the family size might augment any time now. Halloween is being spent in the sun and surf of Jamacia where their costumes will be swimsuits! (Not shown here)

Halloween Journey - days THREE and four

Since I missed yesterday - well -  I haven't been to bed yet so it seems like yesterday to me - I will present the pics from yesterday and today - today - in two separate posts.

Here's a vintage for day 3

The Kish kids dressed as THEMSELVES for Halloween 2010. What are they looking at?

Why its's Tinkerbell!

and - she's stuck in a tree soon to be rescued by the might chaperones: No Frills Sister Dreary and Sinister Circus Ringmister. The Kish kids are safe doing their trick or treating with these two in charge!

Halloween Journey - day two

The dolls are getting dressed for their display at the town library in the Halloween showcase. Tonner/Effanbee's Ann Estelle's Halloween character will be a MOUSE! (borrowed from a Muffy VanderBear).  Dollmore Love Amy (the older sister) is just looking cool in her mod wear from Etsy doll fashion artist Charie Wilson Grenier. As for little Lilah - she simply wants to play with her Donald Duck toy. Witches/Clowns and the colors black/orange startle the poor deary.

Day one of the journey to Halloween

Let the sound of horse hooves over cobblestones and the thrill of night rides in a black carriage begin -

Simone Rouge from Tonner wears Scarlett in Mourning from MA while standing in front of her black carriage from the VanderBear collection. Fluffy Muffy was nowhere to be found.

New grail bjd doll -

Zipping through Flickr and elsewhere pics I found this doll by artist Valerie Zeitler. More research necessary - starting with Haute Doll August 2009 and more on Valerie which isn't very forthcoming through Google searches.
