Another deboxing means another dolly is dressed for the Dance

This morning I ventured back to the Toy Store.....my basement.  I can't remember why I went down there.  Oh yes, I do.  I was going to check out my wig and hair supply.  I couldn't decide what I was going to do today, so I considered that AA Kelly reroot.  I grabbed some mohair that I totally forgot I had.  When I turned to leave, I spotted my Kitty Collier doll, boxed and behind the glass cabinet.  Wow!  She must have really been special to make it into the coveted 'all glass' cabinet.  I think it was just a case of her being small enough to fill that last spot.

I had considered selling her, but had been told that her clothes fit the Poppy dolls quite well.  I don't have a Poppy doll, but she is currently the only doll on the list.  Back to Kitty.  So I decided not to sell her.  But today, I decided to borrow her dress.

Here she is.  She is a 10" Tonner doll.

For some reason I thought her dress would work for Sylvia's daughter.  She was one of two girls left to be dressed for the Daddy/Daughter dance.

It's not a perfect fit.  I need to do something with the right side of the skirt.  I also need to remove those big flowers.

The other option is me making her a dress.  So we will go with this one.  I am trying to get this dance done before the year is over.  So work with me.  When I went to put her back in the "ballroom", I noticed something that I hadn't planned....

Her mom, who has been dressed in her gown since last week, had a dress that was made of similar material.  This actually made the Kitty dress look better.... at least to me.  They will both get something done to their hair, and hopefully some jewelry.  They are a work in progress.

Do you guys realize how much work this Daddy/Daughter dance is?  I shouldn't be yelling at you guys, I need to be yelling at my YouTube fans.  They are the ones that kept asking, "Where's the Daddy/Daughter dance?"  I really should have said that it already happened but I forgot to turn on the camera.  Lol.  I am starting to get gray hair.  Can someone tell me when that Assistant is arriving!!!

Impromptu Photo Shoot - The Redmonds and The Trotts

I started shooting the new video tonight, but by the time I got everyone dressed and the scenes ready, I was too tired to do the video.  Two of the families, the Redmonds and the Trotts, were dressed and looking nice, so I decided to let then do a photoshoot.

Sylvia and Sophia

This is one of the outfits I got when I bought the $2 dolls at the Doll Show last November. I think it is perfect for Sylvia.

Christopher and Sylvia

I could not get the lighting right, but it was such a sweet picture I had to share it.

China is casually dressed, but still picture perfect.

Darren and China

They all had fun at the photoshoot.  These pictures will be great memories of their time at the beach house.
