Finally I have some time off to open my computer and post. These days I’m mostly posting on Facebook so don’t forget to like and follow my page.
On Saturday the beautiful convention doll from this year’s national Barbie con has been revealed and she is stunning! I always had faith in Alessandro and Giuseppe’s talent and it payed off. This girl is a stunner and judging by the reactions in the community she’s also very popular with collectors. great job, guys! :X

OMG! Linda has outdone herself. This girl is beautiful. I’ve waited for her for a long time now. If you remember she is a variation of the sketch Linda Kyaw donated to the Madrid Fashion Doll Show 2013 and of the OOAK doll she donated for last year’s IDC.

The 3rd doll from the series was also sneaked as a beautiful sketch.

I do wish that it was another country (maybe Romania? :D ) but I bet she’ll be beautiful.

Hi, guys!

This a speed post. Lol. I have to write it fast so that my son doesn’t wake up. Yes, I gave birth last week, on the 15th, to a beautiful boy called Filip Stefan. He’s a feisty one and I love him to death! This means I’ll be more active on my Facebook page because I can post there from my iPhone but I will NOT neglect this blog.
