Wow ! I gotta go back and read a lot of comments ! Thanks for ‘em, everyone ! It's been one of those days around here, so reading's gonna be put off for a bit. But I didn't want you to think I didn't notice - they make me happy !
The phone here came with My Scene Madison, part of the Un-Fur-Gettable line. I got her for the cool ‘moon chair' that'll be sooo easy to customize. Only problem was that nearly all the props had this cheap, very low density fur glued to them somewhere. The cool phone - yup, the handset lifts off, and the cord stretches, too ! - had a strip of it along the phone base and around the handset. I ripped it off easily enough, but the glue remained. Scratching at it and soaking it in paint thinner didn't remove the glue, so I bought some Goof-Off, and that did. Now I have a neat new phone, destined for the dollhouse. I've already begun planning the furnishings and such. Can't wait ‘til Beloved finishes it.
Aside from housework and stuff, stripping glue off a Barbie phone is about all I got done today. But speaking of Beloved, he was home for part of the morning - and he insisted on taking me to Kohl's ! Said he wanted to keep his promise about the sweater-ornaments and he knew, left to my own devices, I wouldn't get them myself. So off we went. I got to see the Hallmark Barbie ornaments - definitely not on sale ! - but that Dream House one was adorable !
Picked out four - two of each - at 55% off. Whee ! Four for less than the price of two, and no waiting ! No kidding, that store was d-e-d, dead. Nobody in there, it seemed. I'll have to take photos of the sweaters before I cut them off the adorable hangers - that's right, those sweaters are sewn on there. No big deal, long as I'm careful to cut thread and not sweater yarn. I'll be sure to get measurements, too, in case you're considering them for other dolls, like BJDs. Elphie can fit patterns created for SD13s, well, at least the two I tried, they were sort of loose-fitting, so I'd assume these sweaters fit them, too. The http://www.kohls.com/ site has the ads on it, so you may wanna wait for another sale. I'll keep my eyes open for ya !
Well, I still have loads of other housework to do, so I'm back at it. Hope your day went well - and there was at least one nice surprise in it for you !
