The Rumors are Flying....

The rumors have been flying

since Tierra has been seen 

here at  Thrift Store dolls. 

Let's take a peek at what is

being said 

at Lucy Lu's Beauty Salon. 

 Lucy: So what are we going to do today, Barb?

Barb: Just a wash and set.

 Lucy: So have you ladies heard about Tierra?

Barb: What's up with that?

 Becca: Well rumor has it that the Chynadolls are

breaking up. 

Artsy: Well, maybe she is just taking a break. There is 

so much stress with touring.

Barb: Could be Artsy

 Lucy: Bend your head back a little more. 

 

 Lucy: All done.

Barb: Is Tierra's boyfriend Jamal going to join her here?

Lucy: I heard that they might be breaking up? 

Who's next.

Meanwhile at a small cafe on the other 

side of town.

Tierra is looking over some music that 

her manager Tristan gave her. 

Tierra is thinking:  Am I making the right decision?

Doll Project

I decided to attempt to try to scalp

a doll all by myself to get her 

ready for a flocking.

Here is how it went

A willing victim

After the first cut

Getting close to the scalp 

Took off her head

Cutting off the prongs 

Tip from Dollz4Moi and Chynadoll 

Head is ready to take off the remaining hair. 

Finished removing hair 

Head is back on body. 

Close up of face. 

I had great teachers!

Thanks Chynadoll and Dollz4Moi!

Question......

Do you get the face repainted first 

before flocking?

Haven't purchased the flock yet, would like my fellow 

doll collectors to help decide what color flock 

should I buy? 

There are 31 different colors, should she be conservative, 

or should she go wild?

Help her decide....

Here's the link to the colors 

Flock Colors

Also I made an attempt to make a pillow. 

Made this last night when I should have been asleep. 

Eyes are not as good as they used to be.

Didn't turn out well. 

Will have to try and make another 

during the daylight hours. 

Also need to get some ribbon to make

ties to go around the chair.

Stardolls

With all the posts on the Stardolls, 

today I thought I would stop and see

if my Toy's R Us had them. 

When I got there, found them on a bottom 

shelf in the Barbie Aisle. 

They had most of them but the one in the 

yellow top was not there. 

I decided to buy the following two

I picked up the Asian Stardoll 

(Called Style4 on the TRU's website) 

because of William's Post.
