BJD--Elfdoll Store Valentine's Day Party
I ran over to the Elfdoll Store Valentine's Day Party on Saturday... I didn't stay long, but did snap a fair amount of doll photos.



I couldn't stay long--was there barely in time for the group photo in front of the Artmaze store, and for the gift-bag of chocolates, and for the snacks of cookies and soda, and for the drawing of prizes (you had to purchase something to enter the drawing--I bought a pair of 8mm eyes for $6!).

Ms Cholong was in a beautiful hanbok...

The store was crowded, as usual, but one could still shop and chat... Tons of beautiful owner-dolls--

I had a lovely time before I had to run off! Thanks again to everyone at Elfdoll/Artmaze and to those who attended and brought their lovely dolls!

I think there's another local SoCal Doll Meetup this coming weekend, Sunday at the Fullerton Arboretum. I may try to attend...

Yay! That picture of Ms. Cholong on the bottom makes me smile because she's holding my postcard. XD It has a picture of Kathlen, the dolly I designed on it.

That looks like so much fun! I love the lolita-dollies in the middle of the big group shot. Their dresses are so pretty.

Yes, yes! Got the package... will try on my boy... although I suspect it's going to be a bit big on him! I'll send photos, soon!

The dress was amazing! She's like a doll, herself!

Still wasn't as bad as the first time... One could squeeze around people, at least, to get to the shopping and the dolls for photos...

That's an awesome collection of dolls. Very beautiful.... I wish I could appreciate them more but dolls have a tendency to creep me out!

Heheh--that's not an uncommon reaction to dolls. I'm totally immune to it. I love figures, dolls, figurative art --too much!

Of course, some of the more animal-anthro dolls being made are beginning to suck in people who have never wanted dolls before... so you never can tell!
