Dali

2008-02-18T20:09:00.001-08:00

Salvador Dali has always been one of my favorite artists. This weekend, I had the opportunity to visit the Dali Museum in St. Petersburg FL - and again was inspired by his paintings, drawings and films (Un Chien Andalou...another fav of mine since HS).

Did you ever see Destino?

Talk about unusual pairings - Dali and Disney!

Updated Sybarite Repaint Pics

2007-11-08T21:37:00.000-08:00

I've had a bunch of questions about my Sybarite repaint doll pictures (mostly asking why the doll appears so shiny). Well, it's not the doll - it's my lighting set up (errghh!), so I've added a bunch of new shots to the BOTTOM of the auction page (yeah, you have to scroll WAAAYYY down!) that are hopefully a little better than the original auction pictures.

Anyway, she's modeling the HD Magi outfit (not included in the auction - will be listed separately) - and as you can see, she looks pretty hot!

Enjoy!

Yep - she her horse, Prism, were named National Champion in their Show Hack JT class! How cool is that?!

Keep your eyes open for some unusual ladies that should add a bit of humor and cheeriness to those of you who are 40+ years old (I'll give ya a hint - one is named "Menopause Mary"!!!). I've also got some cool new products from Happy Doll, a few new Obitsu items - and more cool stuff from both DIM DOLL and Doll Heart!!!

By the way, for those of you who subscribe to Haute Doll Magazine, be sure to check Page 14, where you'll see my first advertisement for MonaLisa Dolls!

I bought Raven a few months ago with every intention of reborning her - but have been soooo busy with my ball jointed dolls that um, she's been sitting in her box untouched :-(

I decided that she'd be better off in the hands of a talented reborn artist!!

Hope everyone is having a GREAT weekend!

I'm baaackkk!

2007-07-12T14:50:00.001-07:00

Some new dolls have made their way to my eBay listings...first we have the lovely Nikki, who is now a BLOND babe wearing a LIMITED EDITION DOLL HEART SHARDGEL outfit!

Maggie's got the most gorgeous aquamarine colored eyes - and again, is way prettier in person!

So yeah, it's great to be home - and keep watching my auctions for some more...drum roll please...PIN UP MODELS!

Yes, I'm down to creating the last few in this line - and just a little something for all of you blog readers to know: these dolls may someday be worth a bit more than you might imagine! Without giving away too many details, there's a chance that this line may be used as a prototype for a really cool company - and if that happens - well, you just never know! So keep your fingers crossed for me - and be sure to check 'em out!

Hope everyone had a great July 4th holiday!

2007-07-02T13:45:00.001-07:00

a safe and happy
July 4th!

and will be back with MORE cool dolls and such
when I return on July 11th!

Even MORE Marie Antoinette...

2007-06-28T08:18:00.000-07:00

...will be listed.

I have one more doll to list - which will include the Rose/Green stripe dress, hat, and a mohair wig (different than the wig listed below, but gorgeous none the less)!
I also have one more dress - the blue skirt with pink/cream floral bodice and it's matching hat.
I'm going to list with BIN so that I can get these out before I leave for vacation next week!

Enjoy :-)

More Marie Antoinette!!!

2007-06-27T14:40:00.000-07:00

Listed today on eBay...there's the green top (above) a gorgeous black hat, the lace fan and matching face mask, white lace stockings and a white corset! Get 'em while you can as I added BIN to get as much shipped out before I head out for vacation next week - and within minutes of doing so, they were snapped up (thanks again, Paige)!

I've still got more dresses - and one more doll that I have yet to list....so stay tuned....

LILITH the Lolita girl...

2007-06-26T08:18:00.000-07:00

...is now listed on eBay ! She's an Obitsu 60cm with Gretel head, glass eyes and the coolest chestnut wig...just lovely! Her Violet Fern outfit is just incredibly detailed - and numbered 19/250 made!

If the winning bidder mentions this blog entry, they'll get a FREE copy of the August 2007 HAUTE DOLL MAGAZINE :-)

Stay tuned for more cool dollies, special deals - and a huge giveaway in July to celebrate the grand opening of my new website :-)

Doll Heart Marie Antoinette dresses

2007-06-25T14:05:00.000-07:00

Freshly listed on eBay and SOLD OUT on the Haute Doll site I have more, but it's going to be tough to part with them!! They're absolutely gorgeous dresses - so detailed and well made and are made to fit a 60cm or SD13 doll!

Valerie Zeitler and Doll Heart have outdone themselves!

New 60cm OOAK Obitsu doll...

2007-06-24T12:28:00.000-07:00

...has been listed on eBay, it's FAYLINN and she's wearing a LIMITED EDITION Violet Fern *SILENT FAIRY* outfit, numbered 34 of 250.

I'm busy this wonderful Sunday afternoon - enjoying the day with my dollies! The sun is bright, the weather is slightly breezy - life is good, indeed :-)

Peak's Woods Doll on eBay...

2007-06-23T07:50:00.000-07:00

...and here's the auction

My pictures can't possibly do justice to this absolutely STUNNING doll, but trust me, she's a beauty!!!

New stuff!

2007-06-21T16:25:00.000-07:00

Wow - I've been super busy the past week, hence the blog slacking (sorry!)

But the good news? Well, I've got LOTS of new stuff arriving every day :-)

I'm restocked on Obitsu products - 60cm dolls in white with Gretel heads, 27cm dolls in the new body style, etc. Also have a few 60-011 heads that I'll be listing soon on eBay.

No news on the Hansel and Elf-Gretel heads - but Obitsu keeps telling me that they'll be ready for delivery *soon*!!! Can't wait!

I also received my first DIM doll shipment which I'm super-psyched about - and am expecting more in the upcoming weeks. The quality of their face sculpts is just incredible...can't wait to get the remainder of the shipment!

And last, but certainly not least - the Peaks Woods dolls have arrived...YEAHY!!!!

They're even more gorgeous than the Haute Doll mag pics...the outfits are so detailed and incredibly well-made. I'll be auctioning one of these VERY LIMITED EDITION ladies over the weekend - and I think you'll agree that the craftsmanship is just OUTSTANDING.

Hope everyone has an incredible weekend :-)

New Ebay Store too!!!

2007-06-15T09:43:00.001-07:00

...yippeee! I almost forgot to mention that I now have an eBay store in my other post (sheesh...I have dolls on the brain, I tell ya!)

Anyway - to subscribe to my newsletters for new items and specials, be sure to visit my store
- or just click the link below to sign up!!!

VIOLET FERN outfits are IN!

2007-06-15T09:09:00.000-07:00

And they are soooo much prettier than I anticipated!

I have FIVE of the Honey Bee Manor and SIX of the Silent Fairy...numbered from a total production of 250 - they're up on eBay today :-)

I've also got a TON of new Monique Gold wigs that I'll be listing throughout the next few days (!)

And in other news?

Do you like this Peak's Wood doll?

Well, I lucked out and managed to grab TWO of these darlings - exclusive to Haute Doll Magazine subscribers - and will offer one of them (with an as yet unspecified outfit) to my customers SOON... (hey, I have to keep at least one for myself, lol!).

Not sure which outfits - as would be expected, it was pretty much a mad house ordering this morning - so I know I got some outfits - but the particulars remain to be seen.

These dolls and outfits were made from a LIMITED EDITION production of only 40.

Imagine that! No wonder they sold like hotcakes within MINUTES of being listed :-)

In other news - I'm selling Haute Doll Magazines too - and will include these as a freebie *bonus* to anyone purchasing the Violet Fern outfits!

Well - back to work! Keep watch for more cool new items arriving every day...and have a safe and relaxing weekend!

New day, new listings!

2007-06-12T11:15:00.000-07:00

This is the latest installment of my *Modern Day Pinups*, the lovely Ms Alyssa

I've also listed quite a few NEW and LIMITED EDITION outfits from DOLL HEART,
including these...Shardgel

Lolita
Ruin: The Disintegration of Life

I have more and more new goodies arriving every day - so come back for the latest updates and news!

HAPPY DOLL PUNK LOUIS IS HERE...

2007-06-11T09:35:00.000-07:00

...and he's available now on eBay!

The artists at Happy Doll did an INCREDIBLE job on his face up! With a limited run of only 10 dolls worldwide, Punk Louis would quickly become the *star* of anyone's collection!

Here he is - all I can say is...WOW!

Pin Up Girls...in plastic!

2007-06-07T15:32:00.000-07:00

Um....yeah.

Nothing kinky here - just a few new dollies up for auction on eBay - Ms Candee and the ever-so-lovely Ms Teal.

These will come with very special COAs - they'll include each doll's pin up *profile* and will be numbered 4 and 5 respectively, out of their limited number of 10 in this line :)

Have fun looking - and keep watching for more!

More new stuff!

2007-06-07T12:32:00.001-07:00

Lot's of cool stuff is on the way...yipee!

I get soooo excited at new products :) Sorry!

Anyhoo...here's what you can expect to be listed on eBay very, very soon...

I'll also soon be carrying HAUTE DOLL MAGAZINE that I'll offer through my website :)

Ever read it? It's got everything from the latest releases to "how-to" sections...a definite must for the serious doll collector!

Hope everyone is having a WONDERFUL week...and be sure to check my eBay auctions for some new additions to the 27cm burlesque and pin up line!

2007-06-02T19:42:00.000-07:00

Want to see some cool dolls? Go to this link and vote for your favorite!

Fellow eBayer *Suzanna* runs a *Top 15* doll contest every week, and it's a blast to see such creativity! I've been selected to participate in her contests twice (this is the second time...*Kiki* is entry #9 on this weeks list) and I have to say that I'm honored to have my work listed alongside such wonderful artists!!!

Enjoy the rest of the weekend :)

It's the weekend....

2007-06-01T16:14:00.001-07:00

Happy Friday :)

Well, it's been a great week for MonaLisa Creations! My burlesque queens (*Dita* and *Betty Sweet*) have found new homes - and so has *Kyra* the Suicide Girl, and *Camilla* the Lolita girl!

And I've got some really cool stuff coming in VERY soon...*Punk Louis* comes to you from HAPPY DOLL and is a LIMITED EDITION of only 10 dolls made, worldwide. Here's another shot of him:
I'm also expecting a few more goodies from my friends at DOLL HEART....These outfits are also LIMITED EDITION - and are made for your SD13-sized dolls :)

I hope you all have a wonderful and relaxing weekend :)

Bellatrix and Kiki

2007-05-31T12:44:00.001-07:00

Newly listed on eBay, Bellatrix...

...named for the slightly "mad" character from Harry Potter :)

Also listed Kiki...
...a sweet Lolita girl, that comes with a LIMITED EDITION "Blueberry" outfit from Doll Heart!

Life is grand - the dollies are happy, and so am I!!!

Seize the day :)

New products, the world & everything...

2007-05-30T20:44:00.000-07:00

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!

I've got some exciting news...I'll soon be carrying products from D.I.M (Doll In Mind).

As some of you may know, they make some really gorgeous dolls - so I'm looking forward to partnering with them in the very near future! Here's a sample of D.I.M:

More Lolita girls are also on the way - back by popular demand! One of them will be dressed in this gorgeous new outfit by Doll Heart:

And last, but not least, you can expect some new burlesque/pin up girls to be listed on eBay by the weekend :)

I'm having fun! Hope you all are too!!!!

It's the weekend...yipeee

2007-05-26T06:53:00.000-07:00

...and I hope everyone is enjoying it!

Listed a cute Lolita girl on eBay named *Camilla* - for those of you familiar with the Gothic Lolita Bible, she's named after Camilla or Psychodollfie - a gorgeous (IMHO) model.

I occasionally get emails asking about pricing on my dolls - so perhaps now is a good time to explain why I set the price point the way that I do!

The Obitsu dolls are some of the best deals in terms of a ball joint doll, however, just the body and heads alone cost more than $199.00. With shipping from Japan, it adds to even more - and then the outfits can cost anywhere from $50 and up. Throw in the eBay fees, and other accessories like shoes, wigs, eyes - and the time that it takes to create their face ups...you get the picture. When you add it all up, you can see that my margins are very slim - so yeah, I really do this because I'm having fun :)

I'm always open to layaway though - so if there's ever a doll that you simply MUST HAVE, just drop me a line. I'm easy-going and flexible - guess that's the beauty of having a small business!

Stay tuned for more new goodies next week. I'm eagerly awaiting some outfits for the 1/3 or 60cm dolls!

Enjoy the weekend!

Ms. Nikki

2007-05-24T21:09:00.000-07:00

...is now on eBay! She's an eclectic mix of high fashion and punk - with her shredded fishnet stockings and rocking-horse ballet shoes! I made her from a Happy Doll *Dorothy* head, gave her a set of gorgeous deep blue eyes - and a Monique Trading Company synthetic wig!

Unfortunately, Auctiva bit the bullet as I was listing her (errghhh) so I had to go through eBay and only list ONE picture, just to start the auction. I'll have more shots (hopefully better shots too) up during the day tomorrow, but here's a preview if you want to check her out...she's a hottie!

Hope everyone is having a GREAT week!

New Doll

2007-05-22T09:41:00.000-07:00

Introducing *KYRA* - a 27cm Obitsu BJD with rooted purple hair and a bunch of very cool tattoos! She's up for auction on eBay - just waiting for a new home!

She was fashioned in the spirit of the Suicide Girls - and for those of you who aren't familiar with these ladies, they are modern pin-up girls, and represent the "normal" American beauty (yeah, you'll see girls that are not stick-thin, have tattoos and piercings - not your typical *Barbie* type babe).

Life is grand - I'm readying yet another Happy Doll for auction - so stay tuned!!!

Introducing DITA

2007-05-18T08:43:00.001-07:00

Here she is...one of my favs - and now listed with a few other goodies on eBay!

The website is a-l-m-o-s-t done. Sheesh. It's taken way longer than I would've expected, but hopefully it'll be well worth the wait. I'm also going to my *first* exhibition, where I'll be selling my dollies in person...can't wait. Will post more about that when I get the particulars nailed down.

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!

Burlesque

2007-05-16T08:55:00.000-07:00

I've always admired the modern-day burlesque girls, like Dita Von Teese and will be creating a line dedicated to the pinup beauties...

My first effort is Ms Betty Sweet, a lovely lady who's now listed on eBay.

Also listed a new little Gretel head that features lovely long purple eyelashes and a Monique Trading Co wig!

It's almost summer and I'm looking forward to lots of cool new products, OOAK dolls and other fun stuff!

Hope everyone is having a WONDERFUL week!!!

ROCKING HORSE SHOES ARE IN!!!!

2007-05-13T09:59:00.000-07:00

Wooo-hooo and they're adorable! These are LIMITED EDITION and guess what? I have 7 pairs listed on eBay :) Grab 'em while you can - these will look adorable on your SD13 dollies!!!

Happy Mother's Day to all the mommies!!!

Doll Heart Outfits are IN!!!!

2007-05-01T08:46:00.000-07:00

And they are GORGEOUS! Will be listing on eBay soon - possibly with a dollie as well ;)

I've also got a bunch of Gretel heads (white) and a few flesh Harukas to list.

My website is coming along s-l-o-w-l-y but I'm sure the end result will be worth the wait!

Don't forget: Mother's Day is upon us - make that special lady in your life smile with a gorgeous MonaLisa doll!!! Free shipping within the USA on OOAK 60cm girlies!

Hope everyone is having a GREAT week!

MOTHERS DAY SPECIAL ON 60CM OOAK DOLLS

2007-04-27T11:06:00.000-07:00

...check out my REVISED auctions for OOAK 60cm dolls...I'm running a FREE SHIPPING WITHIN THE USA on those auctions, just in time for Mother's Day!!!

Mary Kate...

2007-04-26T14:19:00.000-07:00

...is now up for auction on eBay with FREE SHIPPING in the USA with BIN! She looks way hotter in person than my pictures depict (wish I could take decent photos!). Check her out - she'd make a WONDERFUL Mother's Day gift!!!

Outfits coming soon...

2007-04-25T04:45:00.000-07:00

Stay tuned :)

Vivienne Westwood and Rocking Horse shoes

2007-04-24T06:30:00.000-07:00

Ever hear of Vivienne Westwood?

Not to date myself or anything (ha) but she was the designer who helped The Sex Pistol's achieve their look back in the late '70's.

She also designed the "Rocking Horse" ballet shoe that is now popular with many a Lolita girl across the globe.

Well, it might be hard to find a decent pair in that style for yourself - but it'll soon be easy to get a version of that style for your 60cm BJDs!

I'll be listing them on eBay within the next two weeks :)

Also - stay tuned for some new outfits from Doll Heart...and perhaps some new faceups in the next week or so...

Obitsu items listed on eBay!

2007-04-17T12:44:00.000-07:00

Listed a bunch of OBITSU things on eBay:

60cm 3-part torso dolls in FLESH TONE (these come with the standard head, no eyeholes)
60-011 head for the 60cm dolls in FLESH TONE (my favorite 60cm Obitsu head!)
HARUKA head for the 60cm dolls in FLESH TONE (gotta love the sweet little Harukas!)
OBITSU WIGS for the 60cm dolls - these are the long, straight middle part wigs - an 5 different colors
27cm large-chest dolls in flesh tone with the FO1 head (love these heads!)

Also listed a new little fairy - her name is STELLA (ah yes, Italian for STAR) and she's a feisty little thing with wild curly lavender hair with pink mohair highlights and a sexy little butterfly tattoo on her right shoulder, and scrolls painted on her ankles!

I'm putting the finishing touches on the other HAPPY DOLL, who is starting to look like a little punk queen (or S&M princess, lol!)

Hope everyone is having a lovely week! Stay tuned for more cool stuff :)

Happy Doll review

2007-04-14T12:49:00.000-07:00

I just finished painting my second Happy Doll - and am soooo very pleased with it! Should have her listed on eBay sometime next week.

These dolls are definitely more costly than the Obitsu BJD's, but I'm so very happy with the quality and workmanship of these dolls. I'll probably end up writing a review on eBay but for now, suffice it to say that they are well worth the money - very solid limbs, absolutely stunning facial features - and the clothing is WELL MADE and just gorgeous!

Also am expecting more Obitsu products shortly - the Hansel 55cm boy doll should be released in May (keeping my fingers crossed on this!) but I'll definitely have more Gretels, Harukas and 60cm bodies up for auction. Also - some flesh tone 60-011 heads (my fav Obitsu head, BTW), and some flesh-toned 27cm bodies too!

My website is ALMOST done too! Can't wait to see it in completion - and I hope you'll enjoy the tutorials, product reviews and other "specials" that I'll have there...

Hope everyone is having a relaxing weekend!

SHOES SHOES SHOES!!!

2007-04-13T16:44:00.000-07:00

They're here - they're listed on eBay and can I tell ya?

They're sooooooooo cool!
Doll Heart makes WONDERFUL products - the attention to detail, the packaging - just excellent!

Have you ever seen the Angelic Pretty store? Well these shoes remind me of those sold for real people on that site!!! Perfect little Lolita style fashion - for your dolls!

Here's a few pics - but check out my auctions - and get 'em while you can!

It's LUCY

2007-04-10T20:09:00.000-07:00

She's up for auction now...made from a head and body by HAPPY DOLL, and faceup done by little ol' me :)

I'm really pleased with the quality of the Happy Dolls - they're heavier and seemingly more robust than their Obitsu counterparts :) I also like that they're strung together as opposed to plastic interior pieces (ever try to take apart your 60cm Obitsu...um, not for the weak of heart).

Anyhoo...I'll have more Happy Doll girlies and even a 60cm boy up for auction very, very soon!

Anxiously awaiting the arrival of some cool shoes too!

Hope everyone is having a wonderful week :)

April showers...

2007-04-03T08:37:00.000-07:00

...are NOT happening in South Florida.

bummer.

We could really use a good rain - but hey, I can't complain, the weather's been sunny and breezy and in the high 70's :)

So what's new and exciting at MonaLisa Creations? Well, I'm eagerly awaiting the arrival of some awesome new products that should be here any day now. More cool BJD's, goth and lolita style clothing and SHOES (yipeee) amongst other things.

The other news? Well, I'll soon be offering a few REBORN babies :)

I guess you could say MLC has come full circle - from goth chics to fairies and from princesses (and the occasional prince, lol) to....babies!

Should have a few completed in the next few weeks, so keep watching my auctions and this blog for more info.

^The lovely and oh-so-elegant Ms. Yvone - now up for auction here!

Titania revisited

2007-03-26T15:16:00.000-07:00

Titania the fairy has been "redone" with lighter lips and new wings - and hey, she looks hot :)

She's relisted on eBay and I have to say that her lips are much nicer in a lighter color!

I'm also working on another project that should be pretty cool - it's under wraps for the moment but I sincerely hope that the MonaLisa fans will truly appreciate it when I'm done!

OOAK wings are also ready to go to auction - I've made a cool pair that are more goth than fairy and made for either Barbie or 27cm sized dolls. And I'll be listing another pair that are the more traditional fairy types - accented with Swarovski crystals and just adorable :)

Awaiting my shipment of goodies - patience, patience, patience for now though

More Fairies

2007-03-25T16:31:00.000-07:00

Just listed today...the girl in pink has Tibetan Mohair in lieu of a wig - a first for me (and inspired by an article in this quarter's Haute Doll Magazine) :)

I'm eagerly awaiting the arrival of some great new products - hopefully this week, Ms Dorothy will make her debut - most likely as a Lolita-style babe, so watch my blog for more details!

2007-03-22T19:51:00.000-07:00

^Amitiel...soon to be listed on eBay...

Doll Shoes!

2007-03-21T15:49:00.000-07:00

Shoes are coming to MonaLisa Creations!

I'll soon have an assortment available for your 60cm ball joint dolls from Obitsu, Volks and other manufacturers :)

In other news, I've listed two new OOAK Obitsu heads on eBay this afternoon - Giselle, made from a Gretel head (includes face up, eyes and a "Pretty Girl" Monique Trading Company wig) and Erin, made from a 60-011 head (also includes face up, eyes and a "Sahara" Monique Trading Company wig) :)

I've had a few emails recently asking about face up commissions - and the answer is....

Sure - I can do commissions, depending upon my availability and your time line.
Just send me an email and I'll be sure to get back to you as soon as I can :) Prices range from $12 for a 27cm basic face up to $25 for a more involved (more paint and detail) project. On the 60cm, I can do the basic face up, eyelashes (yeah, I'm a glutton for punishment, lol) for $20, with the more complex projects at around $35.

Blue or Purple hair anyone?

2007-03-20T20:09:00.000-07:00

Check out my new auctions for 27cm heads with blue or purple or golden (almost a carrot color) hair :)

I've also got a THREE more Marrone dolls listed (the last from Obitsu - or so they told me!)

And then there's the NEW style 27cm bodies from Obitsu

I've got about eight of these up on auction and priced to sell :)

Stay tuned for more great products - the launch of the new MonaLisa site in April - and some very cool OOAK dollies that will be introduced very soon!

It's NEO GUY

2007-03-18T18:25:00.000-07:00

I had to laugh when I saw that Volks had named this dude 'Neo Guy'!

What a name...

So I made the plunge and got my hands on one - and voila', it's a MonaLisa-ized Neo Guy!He's cute - but his face mold just seemed so um, girly-man to me.

Maybe he's a metro-sexual?

Or maybe he's just an anime' boy...

Anyhoo...he's up for auction now...

And in other news? For those of you who enjoy the Lolita girls, I'm working on a new doll that should be ready for auction some time this week. She'll be dressed as a nube, all in black, but it's a great dress with lots of lace and a crinoline petticoat that makes the dress all flouncy and pretty!

Speaking of Lolita fashions, I've got some adorable pink and red dresses for 60cm coming soon - so I can't wait :)

This week, I'm listing a blank Gretel head, a few Harukas and a few of the 60-011 heads. I'll have a few more Marrone/Tan 27cm dolls coming in the next week or so - and coming by the end of April (insert drum roll here please)...

...the NEW Gretel boys from Obitsu. I can't wait to see those!

That's all for the moment...
Lisa

Welcome to MonaLisa Creations

2007-03-14T19:44:00.000-07:00

So I thought it'd be cool to start a blog for MonaLisa Creations and voila', here it is!

Lots of new and exciting things that I can do with a blog...

For instance, I can write reviews of new and exciting events in the doll world :)

I can tell you all about the new products that are out - and the new vendors that I'll be working with...

I can answer questions, help you learn to paint your dolls...

And of course, I can showcase the new MonaLisa dolls before they're listed for sale!!!

Lots of cool stuff, right?

I'd also love to showcase the talents of other people who've purchased from me - so if you've got something to submit, just send me an email with your photos and story, and I'll get your dollies posted here!

So what's new this week at MonaLisa Dolls?

Well, Elizabeth is now listed on eBay - she's a cute little Lolita chick with carrot-red hair and an Obitsu 60-011 head. She's a 60cm doll and comes to you wearing the cutest black and white outfit from Happy Doll (which, if you're interested, I'm now selling in addition to Obitsu products).

Also new this week - MONIQUE Wigs! I think this one is my favorite - the SAHARA! Anyway, Monique makes the softest and most realistic-looking synthetic mohair wigs! I'm kicking things off with a special - use BUY-IT-NOW on eBay, and I'll ship FREE anywhere in the USA! This is a limited time offer, so act quick!

Now let me ask you a question...do you like this doll?

Stay-tuned...Dorothy's coming to MonaLisa Dolls....soon!
