DELICIOUS RAIN !

Yesterday it rained almost all day and it was COOL! wonderful ! It meant a good nights sleep was had by all , so refreshed.
It's also been a day of sunshine and heavy showers today ! So finally the garden is getting a change to have a good long drink, it may help those shrubs that were beginning to look a little sorry for themselves recover enough before the sun returns.
The weather is going to be sunshine and showers all weekend, which suits be perfectly.

Because it's been lovely and cool today ( yesterday I was working) it's meant I've been able to get some cleaning done.

It's also meant I have finally moved out! Well not me but all my doll stuff ! This afternoon I took everything out from under stair cupboard in the hall and put it all into the Studio!

Finally the hoover can have a place to stay!  Of course it does mean that the studio is now heaving with boxes and bags to be found a place to live but it also means I can start selling some of the things I do not need or use.
And I won't have to move the hoover and the cats tray to get into the cupboard or lift out half the boxes in there to find the one I want!. Which has stopped me more than a time or two!

So I'll be listing a few things on my sales page, ebay or the Sasha Bazaar , I'm in one of those less is more frame of minds!

WHAT A LOT A GOTZ..A

While getting my photo for doll shelf day I gathered together my no navel girls, all save poor Ginny whose armless ;) at present!

Managed to get the photos done before the sun got way too hot, but as is usual with these shoots , you always take way more photos than you need.

So I decided I could use the extra's for a blog post.

Gathered were my brunette girls, Wren, Raven and Winter. All in dresses by Petrana.

in the blonde corner were Ashley and Sansa.

and in the red Mary, Caitlin, Saffron and Martha, Ginny being unavailable.

They were joined by Magda , who doesn't like to be left out even if she's a button nose and not a no navel but she is a Gotz!

Caitlin was not paying attention , too busy whispering things to Wren

Ashley on the end wanted to change her dress but was told there was no time , where as Saffron said she wasn't putting on no dress!

Mary decided to take centre stage and organise everyone, while Magda made sure she'd been in a good spot to be seen!

I left them for a moment all chatting and trying to decide if they wanted to move elsewhere in the line up!

I did try not to eavesdrop! honest!

Mary and Saffron are No  navels but not as we know it!  Mary had her eyes painted in the Trendon/Frido style by Shelly and Saffron had a complete re root and style by Alison , but this just makes them extra special no navel kids to me.

I'll need to sort out Ginny's arm string along with a few other Sasha's and Gregor's who are having trouble controlling their limbs! It's not a good look lying in the bushes when you are supposed to be taking part !
