One Of A Kind 
How fun! A whole other way to adore My Child.

 Marilyn Monroe  
This is my very first creative venture.  I mainly purchased this doll for her original outfit.  Her makeup was very faded and after cleaning her I was struck with an idea.
      
 
 

 
 
Redhead Crimp
My Very First Dye! I took a blonde crimp with a bit of a fringe trim and turned her into a one-of-a-kind, redhead crimp.
 
 
After covering the body and face, I used a permanent dye (auburn blonde) for round one of coloring.
 
   The 1st dye produces a SB color
 
A 2nd round of dye    
makes a closer match

Awaiting a Waif! 
I've got a chopped Euro/Aussie UL coming.
 
SHE ARRIVED!
This one is an OOAK and a restoration!!!
 
             Very Grubby and Dirty little Girl

This "Pink Glitter Fairy" already had the beautiful outfit, but her face and body needed some serious updating!
 
 
 
 
 
 
Pretty Pink Sailorette
 
My first wigged doll.
 
A US China Boy in very good condition. He had minimal pilling, no holes or stains, no eye-cracks.
This OOAK didn't involve much work, just some dressing up. The natural hair is ash-blonde and I thought it suited the doll well. Makeup is retouched.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Precious in Pink
 
Well, the first time was such a success!
 
This Canadian Taiwan topknot was minty, no work needed. Just gave her a pink crimp wig and pretty replica flare dress and VOILA!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Little Red "Ruby"
 
Now I've got a whole color theme going.
 
This was another US China boy in good condition. Original pink & grey makeup, perfect green eyes.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  "Isis" in Aqua
 
My first wigged waif and peach-skinned.
 
This Aussie girl is a sidepart ringlet with a very short cut. It's still a cute style, so I didn't dare cut it off, but the white platinum wig looks great together with the rest of the ensemble.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
"Angelina" of the Orient
 
My blue beauty.
 
A Taiwan girl in mint condition except for facial sagging, which the wig corrected. Her makeup is original and her hair is perfect underneath the wig. I thought the turqoise dress was a perfect touch for the indigo wig, and the chopsticks were the icing on the cake!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
This sweetheart is an Aussie waif. Once a brunette UL, her lovely locks were chopped off into a supershort bob. Otherwise she's in very good condition and still darn cute :)
 
     
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
         A Sweet Christmas Surprise
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
This time I used an English UL waif. Very similar to my brunette Aussie waif, this platinum blonde had her length severely chopped. Otherwise in great condition, I used another PamV outfit and a dark strawberry-blonde piggies wig. She got some freckles, and I put her in another original MC box w/ her own little lollipop.

I washed her to get rid of the surface dirt and glitter. Conditioned and re-styled her hair. Touched up the paint to right eye and re-did her makeup.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
   I think she looks great au natural or wigged.
 
  
 
               
 
 
 
 
 
A cute little wigged Taiwan waif
 
She's in an original MC box, I fixed it up especially for her (though no permanent alterations were made)
 
She's wearing a gorgeous candy cane pop-out dress by the talented Pam V of New Zealand (see www.mychildcollector.com)
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
            Another Sweet Idea!
