Summer meet-up at the lakeside 13.-14.8.2016 Day two!

Luckily the second day of meet-up was better! Morning started with so beautiful weather we couldn´t have wished for more. Misha went for a morning swim in the lake. Jude rather enjoyed the water without dipping in - but he wet his feet, after all. Couldn´t resist trying that lovely little boat!

 

                                                 Menni, my first doll is now almost seven years old and still such a cutie. <3 

Daryl was exploring suspicious looking places and met some zombie figures, though they weren´t pictured together after all.

                                                        There were so many wonderful places to take photos! 

Jude is my own custom boy, I bought a MIO Isul set, but didn´t like the shape of nose that much after all. So I practised carving on him. Also made him a bit more smiley than regular Isuls are. I like him now, even still he is far from perfect. He got a wig from the meet-up (good place to sell, buy and trade!) and it makes him look cute!

It was hard to find him a name, and for long time he was just Isul (even still I tried many names) but when I was listening Beatles when packing for meet-up, I thought, why not Jude. And I kind of like it for him now.

 

In Sunday I didn´t take many pics of others than my own dolls. But wasn´t this little acrobat a cutie!

                                     All the crew of mine in group pic. I took along five very different dolls! :)

Thank you for everyone attending and for giving us the cabin for a meet-up place! It was once again so lovely to spend time together, talk, eat and play with dolls. :)

Summer meet-up at the lakeside 13.-14.8.2016 Day one!

I had chance to take part in adult hobbyists overnight meet-up of the PullipSuomi -forum! Enjoyed a lot for nice company and seeing so many different dolls! 12 lovely ladies of us had great time in the cabin at lakeside near Pieksämäki and Varkaus. Unfortunately first day was really bad weather, but luckily it got better by the morning, and we got also outside photos, after all! Tons of photos following! :)

Here are all the dolls attending the meet-up! Such a huge amount of all kinds of wonderful dolls. I really enjoy that people nowadays seem to enjoy the different things instead of liking just one type of doll. Such a richness it gives to the hobby, as we saw this time, too. And how the dolls had fun interaction between all the lines!

A character of his own was Fabio, less than 10€ finding from the gas station one of us had taken along. That lame but self-confident ladies´ man had such a "charm" and so impressively moving hips that he outdoes easily any Ken doll! And he made us laugh a lot during the rainy night in cabin! :D

                         It was a shame, that in such day there were heavy rain and wind! No chance for outdoor photos. 

                                                     But everyone were having fun anyways!

                   

                                     All the Azones, Mama-Chapps and my Ruruko in group pic!

                                                 Perfection comes in small package! <3 <3 <3 Tan little Latis are precious.

                                                                            Menni with a group of friends!

 Amazingly, there really is the right person to use any odd piece of clothing. This hat has never looked as good on any doll, even on the Blythe it used to belong! And so cute on her!

                                                 Ruruko found a cute friend! I really liked the expression of this Azone girl.

                                               Jude is happy next to such a pretty girl! (Who seems not to notice him at all, poor boy!)

More photos of the next day in another posting, as it was impossible to cope with all the photos in the same post. I don´t know if I´m just so badly unskilled using this blog, but everything looks different published than when I´m getting it ready - change places and rows and blah... So I always need to edit it so many times.

Dolly meet-up for long time!

I had lovely day today, meeting doll hobbyist friends in a meet-up. :) Here are a couple of pics of the event, most of the dolls aren´t mine, as there were several people along with their dolls.

These were my girls taking part of the meet-up. Lots of different types of dolls!

Seeing the cute Dollfie Dream and Azone made me again secretly wish for owning such ones... But so far the anime-styled dolls really haven´t been for me, so maybe I just enjoy them in photos and meet-ups...

 All the dolls in group picture. Quite a variety!

Sweet little ones in row.

In almost every meet there is a big grumpy doll terrorized by the cute tinies. Always as fun, isn´t it? Except for him, as you can see from his expression... ;)

Thanks everyone attending, it was nice day today! :)
