ON THE MENU FOR TODAY: So... Around Christmas, I might finally be able to get a doll! At least I finally realized there were dolls I like more than mega-pricey Volks Dollfies. Rather, I discovered just how much I adore Delves from Luts! I have two dolls picked out, which my folks can pick between when they buy my precious gift. I even went so far as to pick out a wig, outfit, eyes, shoes, carrier bag, wig cap, and faceup for them... and both fall under five hundred dollars. A major dollie deal, no? Plus, they are just the sweetest things! Volks MSDs seemed to have a "mass production" look to them that made me not want one. Plus they come completely unpainted, unless you get a one-off. Luts paints their dolls for forty to fifty dollars, and getting a faceup done for me will give me time to save up for faceup supplies.
TYPE BREAK FOR: My Mom's Chocolate Birthday Cake - Happy birthday, Mum!
Gracie's becoming an artistic dynamo! I'm working on setting up a faceup kit, and I can sew... I also love sketching in graphite and charcoal. Using pastels to draw nature scenes as always been soothing for me. I've been a singer for nine years of my life. Next year, I'm signing up for a ceramics class... When someone asks what my hobbies are, I tend to wish I could just say "general productivity." At the same time, I have super-expensive taste... (dolls, hello?) I love, love, love wooden box sets and the finest things I can get. Rembrandt pastels, Caran D'Ache everything else.
IN THE LIFE OF GRACIE:
I'm aiming for a 4.1 GPA this semester, so I'm working extra-hard. I'm also trying to get a job, to pay for those pricey art supplies. I really should update the blog more...
So, since last time, I managed to sprain my wrist... and I got to go get my legs checked out. Diagnosis so far is bursitis of the hips, so lucky Gracie got a cortisone shot! ♥ That was just yesterday, but it seems to have helped.
THE END. GRACIE.
