Finally Some Bokeh~ A Photoshoot
Hi everyone! Today I’m going to share with you the photoshoot I did on Christmas with my new camera! YAY! 😀
Oh, also, sorry the title seems so wacko. I was completely clueless on what to name this post XD
You may notice that Riven-Delle is wearing Grace’s Sightseeing Outfit! Well, my mom had bought it for me for Christmas, but then she realized she had spent too much money on me (with the camera 😉 ) and so I bought it from her! 🙂
My camera really captures the natural colors so well! It amazes me!
B-b-bokeh…? :O
I am so happy with how these pictures turned out! I can’t wait to take more pictures with my camera! 😀
Can you see a difference in my pictures?

Merry (late) Christmas!!
Hi everyone! Merry Christmas!! 😀 Well, you know, day after ;D
So, I didn’t get a doll and I didn’t get any doll clothes or anything, but don’t worry! I am NOT growing out of dolls! My mom just did something different this year where instead of getting us all a bunch of things that we would like, she got us one big thing that we needed or wanted and wouldn’t buy ourselves, so I’m going to be showing you that one big thing I got yesterday! And on my other blog, LittleMissFluffet, I’ll be posting the rest of the things I got 🙂
So are you ready to see what I got? 😀
Okay, here we go…..
I GOT A CAMERA!!! AAAH!!! I almost cried when I opened it! I played around with it so much yesterday and I did a photoshoot and just- wow! I actually got BOKEH!!! AAAHGAHAGAH!!
So, it’s a Nikon Coolpix L840 and it’s 16 megapixels!!! And the screen tilts which is going to be awesome for getting down on the ground and looking up at the doll and things like that 🙂
I am SO excited with my camera! It’s beautiful and feels amazing!! I can’t even believe I actually have a camera. I’ve wanted one for so long and it just amazes me that I actually have one now! Next up, a case and reflector! 😀 And also rechargeable batteries 😉
I can’t wait to show you all the photos I took with it! I’ll probably post it later today or within a day or two 🙂
What did you get for Christmas?

Updates on LittleMissFluffet!
Hey everyone! How are ya’ll doing today? I’m feeling tired…*yawn*
Well, today I thought I would update you all on my other blog LittleMissFluffet! I have received a lot of new followers over here since I started that blog, so maybe even some of you reading don’t really know what I’m talking about 🙂
Now first, I will admit that for a long time I wasn’t posting on that blog, but I’ve picked it up again and have been posting pretty much regularly on there for maybe a couple of months now 🙂
On LittleMissFluffet I post about other things I like and collect. I post about….

Star Wars,
POP!s,
TsumTsum’s,

and also writing! So for those of you who enjoy the stories I write, I am participating in Loren’s Writing Camp for the whole month of December! Every week I will be posting a short story for the camp 🙂
I’m on Team Dragons in case you were wondering 😉
And (attention all Star Wars fans) each day leading up to the release of TFA I will be posting something Star Wars-y! So some days there will be more than one post 😀
Well, I think that’s about it! I am really trying to build that blog up more by posting more on it, and with all the different things I post about, there should be something over there for every person to enjoy 🙂
Also, if I get up to at least 20 followers over there, I will be doing my own writing camp early next year! 😀
Have a nice day everyone! 🙂

What’s Done On The First Day of Hillside?
Hey everyone! I know, it’s been a while since I’ve posted and I thought that now would be a good time to post since I’m tired from decorating our house today. So I’m sitting in a chair next to our Christmas tree and typing this post up on my phone, feeling quite relaxed 🙂
So, I thought it would be fun to show and tell you all what happens on the first day of the Hillside craft fair. Ready? Great, cause I definitely am! ;D
Well, first of all, I have to get up at 6 AM. Repeat, 6 AM! I’m SO not a morning person. I get up at like 10 a lot of days, so 6 is no bueno. So anyway, I’ll be super tired and freezing and I’ll be shaking as I get dressed cause I’m so dead tired and cold and then I get ready to go and make sure I have everything I need for the day. Then we leave at 7:00.
And we drive through Starbucks! It’s our Hillside tradition to get Starbucks on the way each day of the craft fair. And I always get my usual, no matter how cold it is outside; a tall decaf coffee frappucino double blended with whipped cream. It’s quite amazing 🙂
I always look at this mountain. I call him “My Angry Mountain” because he looks upset. Can you see his “face”? The two bumps at the top are his eyes, the line going down the middle is his nose, and the line curving down is his mouth. Can you see it? No? Okay, I guess it’s just me cause I’m pretty sure everyone I’ve pointed it out to hasn’t seen it LOL!
Then we get there and I’m beyond excited and still freezing and shivering! In case you’re wondering what the temperature is, it’s probably about 45 degrees or so in the morning… I just get really cold LOL! So after we unload our van (which is completely packed with stuff) we have to put up our tent, set up the tables, and then I get to work on setting up my table. I lay my purple tablecloth down, unpack all the doll stands and racks, and set my very important sign in place 😉
(Sorry about the weird angle. I felt kind of rushed 😉 ) And then I unpack my precious dolls. Don’t worry, they’re pretty well protected 😉
Next, I put each doll on a doll stand. It takes forever and some of those things will not stretch and I’ve hurt myself trying to get them on. And when they won’t get on the doll it’s even worse because my fingers are so numb from being cold and I’m so tired.
Then they’re all set up! Aren’t they so pretty? 🙂
I forgot to take a full picture of it all finished (well, you kind of got one already in a different post…), but after they’re all set up, I put out the rest of my stock on the table and I set out my business cards. And then I’m done setting up!
So the rest of the day I sit behind our booth waiting and talking to customers. I’ll also go over to Emma’s booth or she’ll come to mine and we hang out. Sometimes we go sit on a swing and we’ll also go walking around to see all the other vendors. And of course, I buy an amazing ginger cookie (or two!) and we’ll have our lunch from The Chuck Wagon. The burgers are seriously so amazing! :O
Hillside is such a fun place to be and I always have such a great time there! I can’t wait to go back again in the spring! 😀
As a bonus, here’s some random pics I took at Hillside 🙂
I think this was my view when I looked up while Emma and I were on the swing 🙂
Here’s the swing! 😀
Well, that’s all I’ve got for you today, but I hope you enjoyed this post! 🙂
Have you done or gone to a craft fair? What was your favorite part about it?

Some Ramblings :)
So, I went outside this evening to take a photoshoot of Jane, but I wasn’t very happy with how most of the pictures came out, so here’s one I really like that I edited!
I made it all dark around her so that she stands out. Doesn’t she look like she’s glowing? 😀
Anyway, I’m sorry that there’s no photoshoot, but the lighting just wasn’t great out there, so I’ll get around to doing another one soon 🙂
And also, I did really good at Hillside this weekend! I made more than enough money for a doll! Yep, every time I hit $115 I instantly say “I have enough money to buy a doll!!” But then I have to tell myself that I can’t so I can buy my family and friends Christmas presents 😉
Speaking of Christmas, who’s getting excited?! I finished making my wishlist today and it got me super excited! 😀 And seriously, when will we see more of Lea Clark? UGH! I’m seriously dying. I probably think about it at least once a day. I just need to know what she will really look like! Although, from her mini doll, I think she is going to be gorgeous!
Okay, well, I need to go do some things now. I will talk to you all soon!
Are you anxious for Lea Clark’s debut?
