Third section to the Winter Wonderland outing.

A Trendon customised by Shelly baby girl enjoying her time in a wooden lantern (that she thinks is her own personal little Summer house.) She is wearing a beautifully knitted in Alpaca wool outfit be Cuddlelugs and original Trendon baby Playsuit shoes.


My 1967 bobbed haired NP posing in her Dollydoodle outfit (Polo shirt by Pinestreetstudios) and JJ's long red boots by a Christmas wreath decorated front door. (Seeing this every Christmas I feel like I would like to paint my dull brown front door a bright and welcoming red but each December flies by without me even buying the paint!)



Love the way that this niche in the wall has been decorated so that it looks rather like a picture hanging on the wall.



Really wanted to remove the Christmas Snowman character in the background and replace it with my Sasha... but I always promise NOT to disturb the displays whilst photographing.



Another of my Frido NPs featured in the Winter Wonderland icicle corner.



She is wearing Dollydoodle warm and comfortable leisure wear, apart from another Pinestreetstudio Polo shirt, and JJ snowboots.



This little train and track was situated a little too high in my opinion to be fully appreciated by the children... but guessing the floor space was at a minimum.



Luckily I was able to stretch up and let this baby admire it a little closer.



Usual much appreciated thanks to Sarah for her brilliant large format listings.

A few of us went on our annual visit to the garden centre but we were rather disappointed in that there were very few displays this year.

....that we could be photographed by. No doubt due to the recession and the fact that they are not expecting people to re-new their Christmas decorations this year... but we did our best.


Here is a Frido 1966 brunette NP Gingham girl trying out these twig Reindeer for size. She is wearing Doddlydoodle leggings and anorak over a Pinestreetstudio Polo jumper and JJ snow boots.



A 1969 Gotz No-navel wearing a Doddlydoodle purple hoodie over lilac spotted leggings and converses admiring the surrounding Winter scene.



A 1960s pale skinned slate-eyed Gotz girl with one of the new for this year LED Penguins.



She is wearing a Dollydoodle Aubergine Hoodie and lilac leggings with UGG boots.



A 1970s Trendon baby Nightdress that I sent to Lisa Hartley to have her falling hair re-rooted. She is seen here admiring the 'new for this year' baby seal balancing a ball on the tip of his nose.



...and now having a quick sit on one of the LED Reindeers in her Sashawardrobe baby fleece, little ear-flap hat knitted by Christine Durand and tights from The Doll Works.



One of the lads sporting Dollydoodle leisure wear and a gilet
(unknown seamstress) and converses. Love the side view of the Penguin.


Now he is standing by a wall mounted LED Chritmas Tree, great to have where floor space is limited.



I have divided these photos into three sections to be listed over the next week
My thanks once again to Sarah Williams for her fantastically large formatted photos.

My apologies fot the recent lack of postings. Hopefully later today or tomorrow I'll be able to list a few photos again!

Focusing on a Trendon Baby for a change.

This is a minty early 70s Trendon baby boy who because of his longer hair style can double up as a baby girl if required.


He/she is wearing a delightful little floral dress set (by eBay ID Maz?) that I won off eBay a couple of weeks ago.



I had seen a copy of this dress previously but had forgotten to place a bid at the time so was thrilled to see one come back up for sale again.



This is the closest coloured ribbon that I could find to tie around the hair.



Yet MORE thanks to Sarah for listing these photos. I need to get behind the camera again as I have basically run out of 'not seen before' photos stored in my pictures and I have again been sent some lovely Sasha sized gifts that certainly need to be set up, photograhed and listed asap.This week has been busy but next week looks particularly hectic with appointments as 'we' try to get myself sorted out. It's been a long hard year!

The Sashas seem to have taken it upon themselves to get changed into more Autumnal clothing since I don't seem to have the time at the moment.

Eline, a 1971/2 Trendon girl re-rooted by Jackie Rydstrom has chosen to wear a Pinestreetstudio dress set with Ruthsdoll's shoes and commercially made socks.




I can see that a decision is being made as to whether to tie the bow on top of or to the side of the head.



There is a navy jacket to go with this outfit but Eline is saving it for when the weather gets colder.



Love this photo of her and personally I prefer the ribbon tied to the side.



Usual thanks to Sarah for her continuing magnificent job of re-sizing and downloading the photo.

Back again to enlisting Sarah William's invaluable help to download these photos ready for Lorraines's return from getting the results from her recent tests.

Lorraine, sincerely hoping that the results were good and that you can be easily helped with just medications (and no surgery) for your pain.
A 1967 Frido Brown Cord NP that came in her original full outfit and white wide trough box. These boxes, as I remember from my daughter's two, were large and quite flimsy so not many survived.


Here she is wearing a Jill Mackley beautifully smocked and piped checked dress, Ruthsdoll's shoes and commercially made socks.


I have tied a toning ribbon and left her hair slightly ruffled to give her a naturally rather untidy, 'couldn't-care-less' look.



I do hope Lorraine that these few photos have cheered you up for a minute or two.



My thanks as always to Sarah who does a brilliant job of re-sizing and listing nthese photos once again.
My daughter phoned today and has promised to go over the proceedure a few more times when she is over at Christmas in the hope that I can then manage them myself.

Talk about taking 'one step forward then two steps back' I now can't seem to download any photos onto my blog. Seeking help.
