Secrets Revealed!

Published February 27, 2016 | By ~Jaclynn~

Hi everyone! How are you all doing?

Well, I’m sure right now you’re quite curious about the title of this post- What secrets does Jaclynn have?? Well, my friends, I shall tell you.

As you all know, last Sunday was my birthday – and my grandpa has been here for a week now. (Ooh, now it’s getting interesting! XD ) Welll….

Hehehehehe…..

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

I’M GETTING A DOLLHOUSE!!!! EEEEE!!!!! My parents are paying for all the materials as part of my birthday gift and my grandpa is building it for me – I’ve been helping him, too 🙂

So, are you surprised? *mischievous grin* XD

Here are some progress pictures!

The doorway is cut out!

It’s set in place!!!

And Leia wanted to try it out- isn’t it ADORABLE?! *dies*

First floor- accomplished.

Oh my gosh I’m going to die. XD

Second floor in progress! It’s actually almost done now- we’ll probably work on it more tomorrow. Hopefully we’ll be able to start the painting tomorrow, too! 😀

We used inspiration from DollyDormDiaries’ doll house- I just loved their arched doorways and when I found out my grandpa could do that- YES, PLEASE! XD 😀

So, we still have a lot more to do to it- I’m saving aside some money to buy some furniture and decorations for it. It’s all so exciting! 😀

Well, I’ll talk to you all soon! Let me know your thoughts on the dollhouse!

How would you decorate a dollhouse?

An Oz Engagement~ A Photoshoot

Published February 25, 2016 | By ~Jaclynn~

Hi everyone! First off, lemme just say thank you all SO much for your sweet birthday wishes! That post has 23 likes (my most ever!) and over 70 comments- you guys are awesome! 😀

Now, the other day I felt like taking pictures of some Barbie dolls. After trying for a while to choose who to photograph, I thought- I haven’t taken pics of a guy Barbie before – so I decided to take pics of my Disney Oz doll as well as Glinda. I hope you enjoy the photos 🙂

The detail on these dolls are amazing! He looks so much like James Franco, it’s insane!

This picture has officially made me want to make a photostory with my Barbies. Doesn’t he look so mysterious and like he’s looking over his shoulder as though someone is following him? 😉

No more hatsies XD

Why, hello, Glinda 😉

Wow. I never realized before how beautiful Glinda is!

This picture had come out blurry so I had to do some editing to it to make it clearer. Came out pretty good, huh? 🙂

This is probably my favorite picture! It looks so sweet to me 🙂

Okay, now I feel like playing with my Barbies. I must make them get engaged. Ooh! Maybe it could be really sad with all that’s going on in “Barbie Town”…. :O Sorry about that XD
How many of you would like to see a photostory with my Barbies? What about more photoshoots with them?

I love this in sepia! 😀

A Birthday Wish~ A Photoshoot

Published February 21, 2016 | By ~Jaclynn~

Hi there!! 😀

Sooo…. How many of you know what today is? IT’S MY BIRTHDAY!!! I am 17 years old today! Isn’t that crazy and weird? XD

So the plan for today is that we’re gonna eat lunch and then my mom and I are going clothes shopping! We’ll come back and celebrate with a Star Wars themed birthday (I’ll probably be posting pics of the decorations and stuff later) and instead of a cake we’re going to stack up some Krispy Kreme donuts and have those. So yeah, I’m really excited!! 😀

Now, let’s move on to the photoshoot, shall we? 🙂

Does Kiara look adorable or what? I love her hair 🙂

This is one of my faves <3

I love the lighting on this one 🙂

And this is probably my absolute favorite!! I just love the closeup on my camera 😀

Well, I gotta go now! My Grandpa (AKA Papa) is here for my birthday as well 🙂

Donuts or cake?

“I’m Going On An Adventure!”~ A Photoshoot of Leia

Published February 4, 2016 | By ~Jaclynn~

Hi guys! Or should I say girls? That always feels weird for me to say “Hi guys” when I’m speaking to girls XD

Anyway, today I went outside and took some photos of Leia. My camera was dying to be used (or I was dying to use my camera) and Leia was dressed all cute, so she was the one I chose for the photoshoot! Believe me, I did try choosing a different doll to take pics of, but Leia is my newest doll and she was calling to me 🙂

Okay, that’s enough talking now, let’s get on with the pictures! 😀
