May (the 2020 Quarantine End Soon) Scavenger Hunt

[Elfy]

Such cute interpretations here. Love the Daring one.

[neon_jellyfish]

Lejays and Elfy, I love your collection of bookmarks! Your sets of two are very interesting (TARDIS could pass as a time device, too), your ladies with bows are lovely, that clock is beautiful and I laughed when I saw Daring is the model for the mirror photo! And I like the weightless air spirit on the scale one, so clever!

[Alliecat]

Toni & her 2 favourite things made me chuckle.  And the weightless air spirit is indeed clever.  

13. a mirror


"Dancin' with myself"


14. a bow


Dawn with another PUDDLE souvenir.


15. a kettle


"...you sure this is where the tea comes from...?"

[Elfy]

Those are great, Allie. I got a laugh out of the kettle one.

[Lejays17]

The kettle one made me laugh. It is surprising that tea/coffee/chocolate comes out of them.

And that’s a pretty bow, does it have a ship button on it?

9) A bookmark
This one has my elementary school's name stamped on the back like I got it at a book fair, which makes it... close to thirty years old?

10) Eyewear
Dallis is currently my only doll with glasses... mainly because finding the appropriate-size eyewear can be difficult!

14) A bow
Awhile back I got a whole bag of Pullip accessories on ebay for super cheap, including several hats, a pair of headphones... and this bow!

15) A kettle...
...well, a teapot, anyhow... does that count?

Pullip sized glasses are hard to get. Love the girl with the clock.

All these photos are lovely! I wish I could comment on all, but then you'd have to read a novel :3 Well done everyone! ^^ And sorry for my lack of activity  - I really did plan to take part in this at least partially, but the current days really challenge my mind and mood, and dolly photography is just not working out right now Which is also a shame partially because a pair of the uniforms I have mentioned earlier in the thread have just come in the mail yesterday, and they look lovely on the two dolls I put them on.

Pullip sized glasses are hard to get. Love the girl with the clock.

I found several types of glasses intended for American Girl dolls work really well with Pullips (I cannot talk about Dals as I don't have any - they seem to have smaller heads, so probably the fit won't be as good on them). Some have temples that are too long and peek out at the back, but some fit fine also from this aspect.
Since AG is totally not a thing in my country or around here, all my ex-perience with glasses comes from Aliex-press, and glasses sold for similar-size dolls there. If you are OK with the long (and currently even longer) delivery time, it might be worth giving it a try. Happy to share links (didn't do it now because I'm not sure if that's allowed) or my ex-periences with the styles and quality if anyone's interested ^^

Alliecat - that's a very cute bow! Good things sometimes come from the most unex²pected places, don't they?  
I loooove that mirror shot! She looks so alive, awesome job on posing her, older Barbies aren't exactly the best models in that regard...

dargosmydaddy - cool bookmark! Dallis is super cute and Ophelia has a gorgeous dress! Czech google translate uses teapot and kettle interchangeably (and Czech google translate is tooootally a reliable source *cough cough*), so of course it counts! That's a super-lovely set, by the way. The time device shot has beautiful mood to it.

Loona - no worries about not being able to participate, I personally find having second round right after the first one kinda arduous, but I would like to encourage you to take pics of those uniforms and post them when you feel like it. I love dolls in school uniforms (eventhough I don't have any...), so I'm curious about your haul

Sorry guys, I need to postpone posting another batch of prompts, things got a bit hectic (I have the prompts, but not the photos). I'll try to get to it before weekend.

No problem! Things have been hectic here as well. A few extra days will give me time to catch up! Maybe!

Such fantastic shots!

Mirror



Wednesday tends to use the mirror we have to practice her skills at scrying... Who knows what she can see in it?


Eyewear



Sera has the cutest round eyeglasses of all my people.


Bow



Olivia decided to show off the bow we got in London a few years ago.


Bookmark



Yeah, we're just using this little card piece as a bookmark at the moment.

[davidd]

What a wonderful mirror photo! The mirror reminds me very much of one my mother had when I was very young.

[neon_jellyfish]

Beautiful mirror! Seems just right for scrying! Sera is so lovely! I wish Azone made a school uniform Sera sporting the same round glasses, she looks so cute in them!

Haha, Olivia's rather thorough when it comes to stripes on everything, isn't she?

I often forget my bookmark at home and then use whatever I can find. Like receipts from various shops or band aids.

[Alliecat]

Yes, Dawn's bow has a little tugboat & a life ring on it.  Claudine was very hard to balance for the mirror shot.  Even though physics says there is theorietically a balance point    -- those can be hard to find!

That really is a cute little mirror.  Dargosmydaddy, where did you find Dallis's glasses?  And again, nice colour schemes in all your shots.

Don't worry, neon, we don't have to have a rigid timetable... it's great that you are doing this at all, and you have to do real-life stuff too -- unfortunately we don't get to play with dolls all day every day

#16 time device

My grandparents' clock.  It hasn't run since my family inherited it; it was just too loud.  And rather heavy to hang, like 40 pounds.  On the label inside is scratched "Feb (?) 42"... I think it's 42 and not 12, but it's not clear whether that's when it was wound at one time or when it was made.  I'd ex-pect a more official looking date if it was a manufacturer's date.  Anyway, still pretty old.

[dargosmydaddy]

Dargosmydaddy, where did you find Dallis's glasses?

I got them on ebay... they're for Wellie Wisher dolls, which are apparently a somewhat smaller type of American Girl doll. When I found them last year I could only get a two pack (pink and purple), but searching on ebay now, there are some other colors and styles. I might need to invest in some more.

Cherie trapped in the clock made me LOL!
