Dorrie's Doll Diaries

"Somewhere That's Crafty !" goes live !

 

Current Mood : Happy. Still sleepy, though.

 

Busy day with Beloved Hubby today. Went with him on errands, picked up a few Priority Mail boxes. I bought these Peek-A-Boo Cuties from Mal-Wart shortly after Halloween. Since there were seasonal versions, they were marked down to 50c each, but they weren't in with the rest of the holiday stuff. I bought two ‘cat' themed ones, and one each of the other three.

 

Believe it or not, the set of four is going for $46. on eBay. Wow. Since I never opened mine, I'll probably put mine up. And keep the one ‘cat' one. I liked that one.

 

We did groceries at the cross-town Mal-Wart, and while their toy section is about twice the size of the one a few blocks down, they didn't have any of the Barbie Anniversary stuff. Not one bit. Darn. I was hoping to snag the travel mug this week. No big deal. Beloved said I could snag the doll of my choice at month's end, and that's something to ponder... do I go for a repro, or the dress-form doll ? Hmmmm....

 

Worked on Somewhere That's Crafty ! this evening, and posted the tote bag to purse directions. Cross-posted the doll directions, too, including the Advair Chair ones. I've sent the Advair craft directions to a website that pays a small amount for ‘em, but they may not use it. It's so simple, it may be too easy for them to bother with. But then again, this is the same site that posted five different hand-shape turkey craft directions...

 

Anyway, here's the link to the Crafty! Home page - haven't gotten to the Wristlet Key Fob or Leia Hat-Wig directions yet, though. Decided to take it live anyway, since there's at least a few projects and links working already.

Other than that, it's been a quiet day. Hope yours was good !

Love the new site Dorrie.  I like how you have it set up and everything.  I love it when people show how they do their crafts.  The doll ones remind me there are some I have been wanting to try and never got to on you Somewhere That's Green site.  Oh you forgot to post your sock clothing tutorial.  That one I did try and loved it.  I know others would love it too.  :-)  Keep up the great work!

Hey, Michelle ! Glad you like it ! I wanted to go with a whole different color scheme, and when I saw that one, well, that was that !

I wanna take a few new photos for the sock/sweater page. None of the Elphie ones look good - flash off her eye decals, bad focus, etc. You know me, I'm only a niggling perfectionist when it suits me !
