Happy Anniversary!

It was five years ago today, that this website went online!
​It's hard to believe it's only been five years. Seems like a lot longer!

Back then I had just two BJDs - my Elfdoll Ryung, and my first Narae. Since then a lot more have moved in - I won't say how many. I guess you could go looking through my photos and add them all up. So far I've kept everyone I've purchased, with the sole exception of the Soom Cuprit, whose head I sold after I replaced it with an Elfdoll Hazy.

What's ahead for the coming year?  I have no idea, and don't really want to speculate, since I'd pretty much be repeating the same spiel I gave the last couple of years. What I'd 'like to do' and what actually gets done don't seem to be the same thing anymore. So I guess it will just be a surprise.

Happy Anniversary Antique Lilac :).
I have not been following your blog from the beginning but I can say that since the time I started to follow it changed my view on BJD and their artistic value. I am very grateful for that. So, let your needles stay sharp, your ideas as brilliant as they are so we can all share this wonderful world of BJD beauty with you in following years :).

Thanks everyone! I'm glad you are all enjoying my Blog and website. I do plan on continuing as long as I am able. This past year has been very difficult, and I've not been able to do hardly any of the things I wanted to do. There were hardly any new costumes made for sale. I'm WAY behind with documenting existing doll outfits. I try to stay hopeful, but unfortunately my health issues will most likely continue to get worse, making it more and more difficult to make the things, or take the photos I'd like to. Taking photos is a lot easier than sewing new costumes, but even that can seem daunting at times. Anyway, here's hoping that I can do some of the things I've been wanting to for years already.
