(Note to Self: you need a really good photo of you and the doll)

Guess what I've spent all day doing?

Yes, playing with my new doll. I ... don't think the Stroppy One quite realized the level of crazy finally getting a gothy-goth doll of my own would unleash. You would think he would have realized this, considering [livejournal.com profile] clovisdvlbunny's presence in our lives, but no. He didn't.

(To be honest, [livejournal.com profile] clovisdvlbunny is not one for accumulating clothes. He likes getting new bow-ties occasionally, but would much rather have minions and a zombie army. Which means that the full strength of my "Oooooh, doll! Doll clothes and accessories!" madness might not have been easy to gauge.)





So, the Infamous BlueJay, who was part of the plot to get me Lucretia (It has been determined that Lucretia Evangeline Ghastly is her full name, thankyouverymuch, stamp both MY GothCard and hers), made clothes for her. Clothes that I will someday own in Cupcake Goth scale, ohyes.






I really do have similar stockings to the ones Lucretia is wearing. I, however, would not wear a skirt that short. (Not since my quasi-deathrocker early 20s, as a matter of fact.)




Lucretia in grey and fur, hanging out in her at-that-time unorganized area. (She's leaning against my "to be read" pile of books.) This outfit is one from Wilde Imagination, and oooh, is it pretty.



Yes, she has her own dresser drawer. Of course she does. (Mostly because I cannot afford the Attic Armoire (clicky-link!), but oh! How I want it. (The Stroppy One says I should ask for/accept donations to help me get it. Um.)



I am giddy with delight over having Lucretia in my life. [livejournal.com profile] clovisdvlbunny is thrilled that there is a gothygirl that he is bigger than, and thus thinks that he'll be able to boss her around. That's going to be interesting to watch.

Now, back to finding more accessories for her. A real quote from our house today: "Ooooh! My mini glow-in-the-dark crow skull is the right size for her hands!"

you know... many of those darling little charms which are available for jewelry are just the right size to be accessories for hats for her.

cause, you know, I am a helper.

Yes I was going to say the same thing. Oh and if there's something you're looking for specifically... let me know. I may just have it handy. If that's the case I'll send ya one.

Your new (to me) kind of crazy makes me smile. I hope the Stroppy One shares my amusement eventually.

[identity profile] cupcake-goth.livejournal.com 2009-12-27 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, he's amused, and thrilled that I'm so happy. He just didn't realize the height that my playing-with-dolls crazy would reach.

[identity profile] javagoth.livejournal.com 2009-12-27 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
I'm pretty sure I could make her some custom jewelry...

I'll also pledge $25 for the Armoire. Why yes I *did* know I"m an enabler - why do you ask?

[identity profile] cupcake-goth.livejournal.com 2009-12-27 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
Eeee! Enabler!

[identity profile] cinched-tight.livejournal.com 2009-12-27 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
and perhaps whichever corset design you settle upon, we could make a smaller size for your new lady ;)
She is really amazing (and makes me want one!)

[identity profile] cupcake-goth.livejournal.com 2009-12-27 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
Ooh, a matching corset for Lucretia would be amazing.

[identity profile] cinched-tight.livejournal.com 2009-12-27 05:20 am (UTC)(link)
ok! Done! I shall need her measures! I have no dolls, but I did go and look at the ones on the site and I really like them so I can see possibly getting one in the new year... Bad, Bad enabler!

Argh! Quail skull! Yes, that is what it is, and I'm a doofus for not getting the name right.

I need to do some research and figure out what scale Lucretia is, so I can be more efficient at finding clothes for her.

13 boys? Good heavens, your harem grew.

she's pretty. i like the lavender fringe.

i want more gothy clothes for some of my blythe dolls.

[identity profile] cupcake-goth.livejournal.com 2009-12-27 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
I've seen some really cute stuff for blythe dolls. Not that I've been feverishly browsing Etsy for stuff or anything ...

[identity profile] moriae.livejournal.com 2009-12-27 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
Etsy is great. my blythe dolls are mad at me because i haven't bought them new outfits in a while. lol

oh goodness, i shouldn't have clicked on the armoire link. that is too awesome.

I had Lydia, just lydia (see userpic) for a few years, and then in September, Veronica came to join the family (a gift from Ashbet). I've decided that Lydia is Veronica's gothic Auntie. I need to make them both new clothes in 2010.

Welcome to the happy world of BJDs

What is the scale of the doll?

I think I can get you a few thing and such for this new fun you have.

Is it bad that I'm pushing 40 and would still happily wear a skirt that short?

[identity profile] m-cobweb.livejournal.com 2009-12-27 09:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Not if you've got the legs for it!

Which I do not. :-( Or I'd join you.

Oh, she's wonderful!

I have a real hard time tolerating dolls. They freak me out to the point that when my stepgirls are not here I lock their dolls away in the closet.
But your doll is most beautiful and your excitement is adorable.

I want one. I think you need more :)

Wow. Awsome Armoire. Makes me want to dig into my cash stash and get my own. Unfortunately I just don't have enough room to showcase a doll appropriately.
