Finishing Off Year End

The start of a new year means I have to finish off all the old albums from 2015, so that's what I've been busy doing. All the Favourite Photo albums of 2015 are now complete.  I wasn't too sure about how to deal with the photos of the four birthdays back in the middle of December, but there were way too many to go into one album, so I divided them up so each doll had their own. Which meant some albums didn't end up with very many pictures, but at least the birthdays with short stories are on their own.

Next is finishing off the photos on my other website, and catching up on posting all the doll clothes made in the past year or two. It seems I've been very negligent with that, especially with posting the photos of the outfits that my own dolls keep.

This afternoon we went in search of some nice snow, so I could take a few photos. I was thinking it would be interesting to photograph the 'Arrival of Winter'.  I need new thumbnails for 2016, and would prefer to use a doll that hasn't been featured before. I figured I'd use Kassia as the Queen of Winter, but I needed an attendant. I thought to use Lonnie again, since it might be interesting to have the same attendant for every season. But what could she wear that looked 'wintery', and wouldn't take forever to make?  So I ended up borrowing Butterfly Narae's white 'Clara' dress. It went nicely to the ground on lonnie, and with the addition of long, white, individual sleeves, and a white velour cloak, she looked the part of 'Winter's attendent'....
