Introducing.......... Miss Epiphani Rose! She is finally here!







I have been obsessing over Blythe dolls for about 6 months. I've been watching every blythe blog and spending a crazy amount of time on thisisblythe.com and ebay looking at dolls and strategizing on which girl I wanted to buy and what customizations I would attempt on my girl when she arrived. Well ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce Epiphany Rose....


She is a Madmoiselle Rosebud Blythe by Takara...I could not bring myself to pay the large sums they were asking for the Kenner (original) models. She set me back a modest $80.00 from www.faoschwarz.com. With rush shipping I made out under $100.00. I am extremely happy with her.

Its surprising how something so little can rekindle your creative spark. Pipha (as she has informed me she prefers to be called) is my new muse. I have been sewing, knitting, crocheting, and building for her since before she arrived. There is something about her (I think its the eyes) that is so compelling. I find myself wanting to dress her up every day and take pictures! I am in the process of developing some patterns which i will post later....well off to play with Pipha!

Pipha will have her own blog called EpiphanyRose

Money to Burn!

I'm sitting here waiting for a wave of creativity to wash over me. I just got my commission check so i have some crafting funds burning a hole in my pocket. Somebody slap me! Use the money for good not evil, good not evil, good not evil, good not evil... I think i will head to the bookstore!
