Mini Updates: Not much going on.

Things have been pretty quiet here in the land of dolls, mostly because I've been busy doing so many other things. 

I found a nice new apartment that I will be moving into next week, and I'm desperately trying to sort through my stuff.  A big part of me wants to throw most of it away, but I'm trying to pace myself a bit.  My doll collection will definitely be going through some changes due to this move as well.  I will be storing some, those that I couldn't imagine getting rid of, but I think Uri will be the only one out full time.  I will probably be looking to sell a few too, so I'll keep this blog updated as I make that decision.

Not much is really new with the dolls, though I really do have every intention of working on some clothes for Uri as soon as I can find the time.  I have fabric set aside, I just have been engrossed more in my music projects lately than doll projects.  I am however using Uri as a base for some song writing.  I am so in love with his story, and it feels like such second nature to me that I decided writing about it would be a good exercise.  We'll see how that goes...

Steampunk Weekend Roundup

This past weekend was the big steampunk convention, and while it didn't end up being big, it was fun.  I didn't got a lot of pictures, but here are a few I did take.




Outfit for day 1, a sort of gothic steampunk  pirate ensemble.  I love my boots. :)

  

Outfit for day 2.  It's basically a steampunk belly dancer inspired look, give or take.

  

This sign was awesome.  I squeed, and then ran to take a picture.  

  

And finally a picture of Uri from day 1.  He had two different costumes too, but I only got a picture of this one.  This is my new phone's camera believe it or not.  Awesome!

Avengers assemble!

Well at least two of them so far. :)

I originally saw these guys on Tumblr and knew I had to have them. A nice Tumblee pointed me to an eBay seller that had them, and so Thor and Captain America have come home first. I think I will be ordering the others on Monday so I can have the complete set. Granted they don't have Hawkeye, Black Widdow, Nick Fury, or Coulson...but so far so good. :)
