A Doll A Day - A 365 Challenge

The start of the New Year is nearly here. 2013. Wow, this has been a crazy year and I feel like I've let too much rush by so quickly. So this year I have a couple of resolutions and they all revolve around my one little word for the year, MORE!! 

I want to take more photos of all my girls, make and be more creative, less procrastination and more active and productive! 


A 365 Challenge


So a couple of years ago I had all the good intentions of going through with a blythe 365, you can see some that I did take here. I loved doing it and it really made me think out of the box. But I didn't finish, and I have a few more ideas up my sleeve! *wink!* 

So this year I've decided to give it another shot! Are you going to give it ago?! Let me know and we can cheer each other on, or join the flickr group. 

One more question, if you're going to give it ago, are you going to go with one girl the whole year or multiple?! I have about twenty four hours to decide and I have no idea!

Eleven Wishes For 'Thirteen

Wow, it was super hard trying to think of thirteen wishes for 2013! I feel like I'm a little out of the loop now, but these are the eleven wishes I have for the next blythe year. I know some are a little big, but hey - you just never know. 

eleven wishes for 'thirteen

So first up is the cute kitty and bunny ears by Violet Pi, a laura palmer dress from Sleep Forever, of course a Mab Graves print and a Mimsy bear hat. I know the Mimsy hat's hard to get hold of and so are Keera's dioramas, so I think one wish next year is to try my hand at making one! 

Next up on the wish list would be a Button Arcade dress, probably a monster one two for one of my Milky Robot monster girls, or even two dresses if I'm lucky. I love Caramelody's dresses and wish I'd managed to grab a Christmas tree hat when I could. Again fingers crossed! 

I think it's about time I got a carrier for at least one girl so she's protected, then maybe I'd be happier taking them out more for photos. The Sew Pixie bags are especially adorable for there quilted and hexagon patchwork covers. Lastly, I've saved the biggest until last... a middie! Yep said it out loud, I need would like a middie! Sammy Does' middie is so cute with just enough edge, I would really like a middie with fantasy hair so I could chop and rough her up with some attitude, or a Cherish Me Always as a mini sister for Arrietty! 


So that's my thirteen eleven wishes for 'thirteen, what would you wish for?! Leave a comment or class your self tagged to play along on flickr!
