Finally!!! A happy ending to a looong wait

Today I finally got to go pic up my girls at the post office!
They arrived in Denmark over a week ago, but customs have been soooo slow with everything. I got really angry in the end XD
But fortunately I got to pic them up after work today, so I got happy again ;P

So all in all I've been waiting for my girls for....6,5 months :O
Buuuut! I assure you they were well worth the wait *_______________________________*

Aaaaand I did a box opening for you guys to see :D

 I'm so sorry for having bruises on my small fat hands XD I had to run for the bus the other day...and sort of tripped like a little kid ^^" So yeah, I hope you can ignore it XD

 Meet Ophelia *______* my diamond gray beauty <3

 And here we have the lovely suntan lady Freyah <3

 Can I just rant about how GORGEOUS the PW resin is? No matter what color, it looks absolutely perfect!!!

Yeah...uhm....this was sort of all I had that I could throw on the poor girls XD

Freyah got the lovely DollHeart dress, while Ophelia is rocking some clothes I've borrowed from my younger sister Johanne (Thank you <3)

I really like the eyes and the wigs that were sent with the girls. Especially the black wig on Ophelia. It's awesome quality and very silky and nice. ^^

I'm playing with the idea of styling it, I think it could be quite awesome actually :D

Gah! I just LOVE my girls *_________* I'm SOOO happy I decided to get them both. And those colors are just so amazing irl. ;___;~<3

Shipping notice!

Yay! I'm so happy! I got my shipping notice for my two FoC girls today *____________*

I was SO surprised really. They said when I payed the last payment, that it would take them 2-3 months to produce them. In the end it didn't even take them 2 months :O

I'm receiving stuff for my girls from Taobao, but it will not be in my hands before another 2 weeks, so its all very bad timed. Especially since I don't really have any money for the horrible import tax. >___<"

Well, now I'm just dead scared that something should happen to my lovely girls while they are being shipped x____x" I'd hate to open the boxes and find something is broken :/ That is my biggest fear in this hobby >__< buuh

Oh! And I also got the shipping notice for the face up stuff I bought from Britain. I wrote to their customer service on Wednesday, to ask how long it would take them to ship my order as I found it a little strange that I hadn't heard from them at that time at all. They replied later that day that it took them two work days to process an order, which in itself was odd, as it was already the 3rd work day at that point. <__<"
So I waited and then wrote again today...an hour later I got my shipping noticed so that was fine. I had of cause hoped to have received it all by this weekend, but that is not going to happen.
I did get a message from their customer service an hour ago, and they apologized the delay. But I am a bit disappointed that they didn't keep me up on track themselves, and not that I should have to write and inquire if something is happening on the other end. :/
Anyway, it's being send now so I'm just happy I don't need to think much about it anymore. ^^

Hopefully I'll still be able to get my sisters MSD-sized girl painted before I visit my parents later this month ^^"

Random rambles

I got a nice load of money from all the work I've been doing for the last month. Yay!
First thing I wanted to spend some money on was paying off a huge chunk on my White Rabbit layaway. So now I only need to pay $220 to be done with it. He is expensive XD
I hope I never want a doll this expensive again >__<"

Oh, and another news is; I've just spent a ridiculous amount of money on new faceup supplies :D
Yaaay!! I've been wanting to buy Rembrandt soft pastels for half a year now, and finally I had the money. I had planned to buy a set of 60 half sticks for around 600DKK (~$97) from a Danish supply store...but Danish prices are always way more expensive than anywhere else. So I tried googling if I might find the set of pastels on a british site (less expensive - no import taxes). And I did! I found www.jacksonsart.com where I could even get free shipping to my country if I bought for more than £100 (~$150), This site offered a set with 90 half sticks for £51 (~$77) so I could get more pastels for less money.

Just shows how overpriced stuff is here in DK. -__-" I'd love to support local stores, but the extra money is just too much.
Anyway, I ordered the set with 90 half sticks (its probably way more than I'll be needing, but it nice to have such a large range of colors to play around with ^^), 7 different Princeton brushes and 4 different Golden fluid acrylic colors. So I'm really excited and hope I'll have it all by the end of next week so I can do my sisters cute MSD head :3

But yeah...Its not even the 1st of February and I've already spent a lot of money XD

And here I go again...

Here I was, thinking I was out of danger until PW sculptor Kyung Min Lee is recovered...it turnes out I've developed a HUGE crush on Ringdoll's Lucifer Style C ;__;~<3

But just look at hiiiiiim~

I've always liked Ringdoll. They are very interesting and brave and have their own very destinct style. But I was so taken aback by the Style C Lucifer. He looks awesome. XD

It all began when I 'accidentally' started writing a little on the story for my SD-sized dollies. I had my mind set on Freyah not getting a guy for a long time, because I've had difficulty defining what type of guy she'd be interested in...turns out that guy is a tall 'stranger' she meets at a ball while trying to dodge her parents and their usual attempt to find her a fiance.
Since I bought Freyah, I've thought she should have a tan man (lol), but I fear it would be pretty difficult to make those two types of tan go well together because of their hue. So for now I'm considering getting him in normal skin. ;P

Hehe it's kind of crazy really...buying him as a full set will still be easier than one of my two PW girls XD so I want to try buying a full set for the first time. I've never gotten a doll I could just take out of the box from the start and play with it without having to get clothes, faceup and everything else. I'd like to try that. ^^

So yeah...this has been what I've been filling my mind with over the last many days...though I did have my final exam this Thursday, so I now have an AP in Computer Science ;D

Hope to get news about the Taobao order with my sisters soon...I hope it arrives before my girls XD

New order from Taobao

As promised, here is what I have on the way from Taobao.
My sister Johanne told me she would make a Taobao order at the end of December, so I quickly asked her if I could join since I don't really have anything for when my new girls arrive.

So, here is what I've ordered:

 These beautiful shoes I just had to have! I've even asked my sister to make a dress for one of my dolls that can match these shoes. Just knew I had to have them XD

 This wig for Freyah...but I don't know if it is a good enough quality ^^"

 This wig for Ophelia...I bought some different ones as I have a hard time deciding hairstyles. Especially for Ophelia...I don't know what colors will look good on her. XD

 This dress was a given for Freyah. It's so lovely.

 I decided to order two of these, to make school uniforms for my girls. I kept returning to this dress, so in the end I just sort of found an excuse to buy it ;P

 One set of black underwear for one of the girls.

 White stilettos with white lace to go with Freyah's dress...hopefully :D

 The first of many necklaces XD

 Another set of underwear for the girls - but as I don't know which set will go to which girl...

 I ordered two of these hair ornaments. One in this violet color and one in yellow.

 Two doll stands...because I've always wanted some in SD-size ;)

 Another necklace

 Blue glass eyes for Freyah

 This necklace as well XD

 I thought these would do super well as 'school-uniform shoes', so two pairs of these.

 These awesome fishnet overknees *__*

 This cute bob-cut wig for Ophelia

 I think I ordered this one in a more brown nuance for Ophelia...XD

 And I think I ordered this one in blond for Freyah...I might be surprised in this order *too lazy to log into taobaotrends to check* XD

 One pair of black kneehighs

 This pretty blue dress for Ophelia

These awesome glass eyes for Ophelia.

I ordered another pair of shoes for Ophelia, but they were out of stock, so I've asked my sister to include another pair of shoes. I can't have my girls get jealous of each other from day one XD

Hopefully some of the wigs will work and give me a better idea of what they will end up wearing. I don't want them to only have one wig. I'd really like for both my girls to have different wigs in different styles to make fun photo-stories :D
