Oh my. Blythe arrived yesterday and I am giddy. It’s like being a child again, only a child who has money this time around.
She looks Dutch so I have called her Griet.*
Is it wrong? Aren’t you a bit old to be playing at dolls?
Oh, I don’t care at the moment. I want to make her things, give her freckles and take a million photographs of her. She is my new travelling muse.
I think my boyfriend understands my ‘hobby’, I am positive that none of my friends will… It will have to be my dirty secret… Luckily (as for most obsessions) there are many corners of the net that will indulge and encourage me.
*She is a ‘Birdie Blue’ model.

Yes, this is the perfect way to keep a dirty secret, tell us, we’re renowned for our secrecy and confidentiality, or something like that

Griet is sort of scary-looking, isn’t she? But if she gets her own photo-blog I think I’ll forgive her / get used to her. (Here’s to hoping!)

Pete, you are the soul of discretion obviously.
Waffly it’s expected. Blythes are like marmite - you either love them or hate them. Part of their appeal for me is the photographic opportunities, some of the Blythe photography out there is simply stunning.

YT, as soon as I can there will be many photographs. Oh yes.
I have a feeling that having a Blythe will be better than prozac.

…but will she be as much fun as Prozac..? (Maybe if she hooks up w King Negrito, yeah? They could have some alien-looking leather-babies, perhaps?)

Roachy - I haven’t taken any pictures yet, but I will. Google for ‘Birdie Blue’ Blythe and you’ll see what she looks like. I shall customise her of course…
She’s a feminist in the SATC Samantha way.
YT - Better not tell the other Gritos just yet…

I heart her.
Got another one on the way (posted from Hong Kong, fingers crossed) who looks like my original ’70’s doll…
Should make good future playmates ;o)
