Maya Arrived!

Doll Leaves approached me awhile ago wanting to give me one of their dolls to use as a costume model on my website. No strings attached - just use it as a model for some of my doll costumes. I was very surprised and appreciative of their generosity, and chose Maya, one of their MSD boys.

He was shipped the day before Canada Post started their lockout so Maya ended up in some holding warehouse in Vancouver where he spent the next couple of weeks buried under mountains of un-deliverable packages.  Well, today he finally arrived!  

He is my first MSD boy, and has a nice slim body which really poses well - he'll probably fit well with Narae.  But I always find it a bit odd when a doll has no faceup of wig - they look so "naked" - and it's hard to visualize the possibilities. I'll have to take him to Charie to do her magic on him, and get her to turn him into a nice boy. I'll have to make him some wigs too - I don't think long Tibetan lambskin would look right, so it will have to be one with a crochet cap and sewn-on synthetic hair fringe - or maybe even a mohair wig with a crochet cap. Then figure out what he should wear.....

It's always great to get a new doll! Thank you Doll Leaves!
