I love my dolls. I thought I loved sharing them...
But really I am so busy it is more of a private endevour nowadays. I lost my zeal after that Xmas swap. It was lovely. I got my gifts out and I received all of my gifts but after that the need to socialize with other doll owners just seeped right out of me. The need to keep up with what is new in the ABJD world and what new trends were popping up just wasn't there anymore. Then we went to China and sometime after that I got sick and well the outside world just really flew out the window.
Anyway, I've had him for over a year. I did show his body in a story journal but I didn't do much else after that. This weekend I made it my goal to finalize a face-up and replace those ratty lounge pants. His shirt is still terrible so I will probably work on that hoody I talked about in my personal journal.
So anyway... Yeah, this is Ama. He likes to be called Amarant.

(o.O) Aaaah! What do I make?!
I got two boys. :d Tricky tricky. I guess I could make scarves.
I don't really have any good colours... Maybe need to hop over to Hancocks, Michaels, or Wal*Mart. *pumbles deeply*
I would love to knit a sweater... but I'm not so good at those. Crocheting would take too long and it gets a little thick.
Too bad I didn't get any girls. I was looking forward to making some kanzashi or frilly underthings.
Maybe I will make scarves like these Gryffindor ones I made earlier. But in soft black and gray micro-spun. One of them might like a hooded scarf with pocket ends. Hum. I only have til the end of the month. Not much time. Could make some flannel boxers... hee. A warm set consisting of scarf and cozy boxers. XD |

After we repaired Ema we went to Michigan to visit with my parents. Mom was very impressed by Aumery and Ema, my sister thought they were beautiful. LuiLui (Elaina), my cousin JiaLan's eldest daughter and my flower girl, had a lot of fun playing a little with Ema. Ema's wig kept falling off though. After we came back from Michigan in September I got wrapped up in getting ready for a con that was this past weekend. Now I can go back to doting on my cuties.
Ah, Serendipity's new boy is wonderful! I am quite willing to drop L-Bi now. His chest is a little odd but as a stuffy guardian he won't be without his shirt much. Happydoll hasn't restocked Mill in a long time... So I was thinking Mini-Soo is so adorable! Soo is lovely but with Ema I didn't want another big girl anymore. Also, I am still tempted by Volks MSD Hisui. I know she's limited but she's available through FCS, too. Through FCS I would get her with tabi feet, sitting body, and sunlight skin. ;D Mini-Soo or FCS Hisui... o.o too cute couple of michievious girls. Though Serendipity Shall on the new Serendipity girl body... heh heh *flaps around batty*
I hope everyone gets better from your downs. *hugs* I think we're missing the sun already. |

Ema's part came to the door yesterday. I was so surprised the mailman rarely comes up to deliver a package. Usually they call the wrong number and leave a pink note in the mailbox. I think he wanted to see "Ms. Saucy Tart" receive her "Toys"... I guess he was expecting a cam girl porn star or something. Ah well. At least Ema is all fixed. I fought a little with the process but it was all good in the end. I did order an option part for Ema but it is so dark toned compared her skin. :( I didn't think she was white toned. Ah well. Live and learn.
( face to face again )
It appears the Unoa girls will be available before the end of the year... I wonder if I should get Lusis. She could be a tomboy or maybe is posing as a guy. Or I could maybe trade her for an L-bi with someone whose L-bi is posing as a woman. ;D |

Oh first before I forget. ParaBox finally sent Ema's part after I fired off an inquiry e-mail yesterday. I must be becoming an expert at checking in as it seems like a third the stuff I order online is never sent until I ask about it.

:p Bleh. Waiting for the maintenace people to caulk the ceiling before diving into working on Aumery's face-up. But I don't know when they will come so it is on hold for now. I only put a base coat on him. *makes funny darth vader noises with her mask*
I did make him a turtleneck and he looks very nice in it. I make the neck and sleeves long so I could style them into all sorts of moods. Also a matching pair of socks were made from the pattern posted on Hound Calling a Y! group for DollShe dolls. They fit very nicely. I was thinking of making him some sandals from old magazines but I spent more time cleaning up after myself instead. Aumery decided he wanted to talk to me.

Oh and Aum has updated his Y! blog with a new entry. |

I cannot seem to get a signal to Y! 360.
Today, ev told me to kick back and relax because she was going to try to clean up the studio. She says the finished projects need to be swept out of the way before she can start the new ones. I talked to Emalaude for most of the day. She is resting mostly and awaiting the surgery ev will perform. Emalaude is very brave though she assures me ev can handle the job. I feel a little angry that Emalaude was hurt in the first place. ev seems to be hiding something about the surgery. I will question her some more. |

I want whoever who reads this to ask me 4 questions. Any 4, no matter how dirty or random. I have to answer them honestly. In turn, you have to post this message in your own journal, and you have to answer the questions that are asked of you.
You may ask your questions to any of the doll citizens of this journal either individually or collectively.
If you don't post in your own journal that's okay, we won't hunt you down and hurt you. ;) |

Sorry... Having too much fun talking to Aumery. ^^*
I'll get around to his arrival story soon!
I broke Ema during the photoshoot.
We ordered a replacement part.
I feel really really bad about it.
But once's she's fixed good as new it will be all happy again.
So she's laid up for now and I will continue to discuss with Mr. ImberUlf what sort of face-up he would like. Aumery also has his own Y! blog. I don't know how he posts to it. Maybe a cellphone?
Until then sorry again I haven't commented or posted lately! |

| Hound left his calling card. |
[Aug. 21st, 2005|12:29 pm] |
Boo. The mailcarrier dialed the wrong call number so we did not know the postman was trying to call up to the studio to drop off Aumery. So Aumery is now back at the postoffice. But wow fast! I guess he got through customs okay. :D Today, I think I may make up those boxers and maybe start on the couch. ^_^
Yesterday, the hubby and the me went to Otakon and enjoyed ourselves. There were so many dolls in the artist alley! They all look so small in person to me. I always expect them to be huge and they never are. Even Donn of Bishonen House's dolls! I guess it is different when you pick them up and play with them but just displayed I don't think of them as so large. The BJD offerings were all very nice but nothing really jumped out at me and said, "You must buy me for Ema/Aum!" It would have been kind of cool if it did. Though the plaything t-shirt at the Bishonen House booth came close, it just nipped at my fingers. I did not chat with any doll owners as I was not holding one I did not feel comfortable chatting. Plus not everyone in the BJD world accepts 60cm Obitsu. |

Hound shipped. Yay!
Looks like I will have time to make him that top this weekend. I have a feeling he is the type to get cold easily. The girls will probably coddle him with offers of their scarves and furs until I make him some proper clothes. I have been sewing so much lately that it will be a relief to sit down and do his face-up.
Oh and it looks like I can save a bunch of money by ordering a large bust for Ema from ParaBox. Like almost $100! Maybe I can used that saved money at Otakon this weekend to buy treats for all the dollies. ;D
I made some icons for me and the girls. (Had to get a paid account though... Maybe I can hire someone to make over the journal.) So maybe that will inspire the girls to post? I don't know.
So... yeah, I should probably clean up an area in the place so we can take some arrival pictures. Imagine a parlour-boarder in this studio that looks like a storage room. o.O I boggle deeply... while I clean. ;D |

(-, -)z z z Z Z
I am suspecting he will have the larger eye wells so the 16mm blue green eyes I bought so long ago will probably fit him. I bought some 16mm acrylic grey ones. I had also purchased 14mm glass violet colored eyes, they came in the oval shape. Rip off. :p But they're very pretty and with the way Hound's eyes are I don't think there is a need to return them. I just overpaid for them. I guess I don't need the 16mm eye beveler anymore. I will probably sell it if he doesn't need it. I hope his wigs fit or he will end up with Ema's pink wig. XD hee hee or I could just rub his noggin. Whee!
He still needs shoes. I will need to find sometime to do that.
I want to make him more of a substantial top also.
I hope he isn't flirting with a Lishe or a Shiwoo. He needs to come home. :) No broken hearts, please! I would like to have him in hand while shopping at Otakon. Artist Alley will have some BJD items and I am looking forward to shopping in person rather than online.
Where oh where has my little hound gone... |

| New stuff coming through! (Photostory) |
[Jul. 23rd, 2005|06:56 am] |
Hey, we're getting ready for a new arrival.
Ema has changed a little since she first arrived. She seems to have forgotten her French but that's okay since I don't understand French. It turns out she's a very sweet girl. I hope our new housemate doesn't change her too much.
( Ema, don't ever change. ) |

I have been toying around with some Chinese themes lately. I am drafting some patterns for some new clothes. The brocades are so beautiful I don't want to cut into them. XD So instead today I just kind of draped Ema in a piece to enjoy the whole spendor of it. She got a new wig from audreysdolls.com. It is a Monique wig in the Michiko style in size 8-9.
( My China Girl )
I also got some 16mm blue-green acrylic eyes but I don't feel they suit Ema very well. I will save them for a future doll or donate them. The HLJ order is sitting at the post office right now. Yay! Presents for my girls. I got a chair from my mom that fits Tiff but I think I need to take the back cushion off so she isn't being pushed out of it. XD
Ah! DoD and eLuts raised their prices. *nudges the US dollar* Please grow dollars. Do you need water? Please get better and stronger. Luckily Cue from eLuts is still the same price. \o/ There is a Too and Bee-A pair(Woo, doll nudity.) on eBay right now. Hmmm... XD DoD also is releasing 4 new male dolls. They're cute but none of call to me. Probably because I want girls instead of boys most of the time. Maybe I will have my twelve girls of Jinling. ;DDD |
