Teeny Tiny Tuesday!

This week's Teeny Tiny Tuesday is from the Rilakkuma Bakery series. I suppose it's more of a mini-series as the individual sets generally only contain a couple of items. It's not the first set (shown back when this segment was Teeny Tiny Thursday!) I have from this series and both were bought blind as I can't resist when I see them for sale in person.

I wasn't sure whether this set was bread or cake but I settled on some sort of sweet bread. My boyfriend whipped out a couple of books that covered Katakana and Hirogana (which I totally forgot he had!) and helped me translate. It turns out that this set is crispy melon bread, which is a bit of a sweet bread as it is bready on the inside with a thin and crispy cookie-dough exterior. It takes its name from the cuts in the bread which look like a muskmelon and traditionally doesn't contain any melon at all. I guess you wouldn't really want to serve it with butter after all! Or maybe you would! I haven't got to the bottom of that yet.

I displayed the breads on my plate from a set in Natalie's French Treats that I will show you next week as it is really cute!

Squiddly Dot's Pull Charms

Last week I posted 5 fun pull rings and thought it might be nice to show you Squiddly Dot's. I am a fan of the Twiggy Twiggy rings because they come in such great colours and are really well made. Several of my Blythe's sport some Twiggy Twiggy's. Squiddly is my only Blythe with pull charms despite the fact that I have quite a few of these Kid Robot zipper pulls but I do like to clip them to anything and everything! This one is by Aaron Meshon and is probably my most fave series. 

I don't know why I felt this charm was so perfect for Squiddly Dot but it just is. What pull charms do your Blythe's have, if any?

Wonderfrog Love

I am pretty much in love with this blue lately, so apologies if it all seems a bit samey. I wish I could get to a beach with sea water just like it. I've never actually been to one remotely this colour but I've seen it in the brochures. Hopefully it's not all a big photoshopped lie. That would be pretty crushing and I bet you pay extra for that.

Anywho, here is my lovely little yellow WonderFrog, Edo, enjoying his Minnapetit romper suit. He's looking pre-tty good, even if I do say so myself.

Have a great Thursday!

5 Fun Pull Rings

Pull rings are such a quick and easy way to give your Blythe's a little makeover. They come in so many different styles and colourways you are bound to find something that matches their unique personalities. With that in mind here are my top 5 pull rings of the moment!

Teeny Tiny Tuesday

I originally bought this set from the Storage Beauty series for the floral wellingtons but it was these pieces that ended up being my fave. The frog prince watering can is extremely cute and great for those slightly surreal shoots that doll collectors seem to be so great at.

The wine crates have a really nice texture which makes them that little bit more realistic. One of the reasons I love this set so much is that it adds decoration to pictures that otherwise may seem a bit bland. I am thinking about painting the flower pots to add a bit more detail but I don't want to go overboard. Maybe just a few white polka dots around the rim. Polka dots are the perfect no-fuss decoration I reckon, but we'll see!

Today's Outfit

This smock by Morganannie is one of my favourite pieces in my dolly wardrobe and it gets a lot of wear. It looks great on every doll that's ever worn it. You can see Flossie modeling it here. I know people might get bored of seeing the same piece of clothing more than once but I just had to share this cute pic of Parkin.

Hope you're having a fun Monday, if that's even possible. Well, maybe later when Glee is on!

Gold Spandex and Trainers Part 5

After the "blonde bombcase" incident I have been even more curious as to the identity of Parkin's mystery fella. Being the nosey parker that I am, I donned my best private detective trench and fedora and secretly recorded her on her way out this morning, in the hope of catching a glimpse of this secret boyfriend. No such luck, but I did see her all dressed up in a gold bodysuit with turquoise belt and leg warmers. She'd *borrowed* my trainers too. I suspect she went to the gym but why so fancy? Gold spandex doesn't seem very Parkin to me...
