Last year Ellowyne hosted a Day of Ennui event, and it was so much fun, we're having another (The Sequel)! The event fee includes a fabulous lunch, an exclusive Ellowyne, a special program celebrating Elloywne's Day of Ennui~The Sequel, and a chance to experience a day in the life of Ellowyne, along with table gifts, surprises, a fun poetry contest, and even a few smiles. After the event, there will be a special signing with Robert Tonner at the Tonner Company Store, along with a display of Ellowyne's favorite looks.

  

In addition, there will be a Friday evening event at the Tonner Company Store featuring wine, cheese and English scones - with Ellowyne AND Evangeline Ghastly! An exclusive Evangeline will be available for purchase. This after-hours event is free to all A Day of Ennui~The Sequel attendees!

  

Three competition categories are set, and there's even an additional hat decorating competition that everyone can participate in...maybe even Ellowyne? Check out the competition categories and rules.

We hope to see you there!

There is an excellent resource for skin (vinyl) tones of Integrity Toys dolls maintained by Mandy aka Amanda. The number of vinyl colors keeps growing so keep watching for updates.

A Fashionable Life Cissy On Sale at The Toy Shoppe

A Fashionable Life Cissy

This Madame Alexander 21" Cissy is way below the original retail and less expensive than I've seen anywhere. I've been looking at this A Fashionable Life Cissy for a long time. Her outfit is so amazing. Check out her shoes! I want her but she'll have to wait.   An African American version is available at the Doll Market for slightly more.

$229.95 at the Toy Shoppe

Shuga Shug's Pictures of Restyled Rayna

Go Home went from pig-tailed to gorgeous in these redressed, restyled images by Christina aka Shuga Shug.

No, You're Not Going Blind

I got tired of the black background so I am trying out a simple color scheme for the blog. It's easier to read. I hope you all like it.

For another change of pace, I am posting recent pictures of my Tonner Artemis of Bana Mighdall doll. She is the only 13" Tonner doll I have and unless the sculpt gets "prettied" up, there will not be another. It's not easy getting her to look like a she instead of a he.

It's not like Robert doesn't know a beautiful face. He's sculpted zillions of them. It's just in the last two years he's got this masculine jaw thing going on. For me, it ruined the Miss Revlon fashion doll to which I was looking forward.

Marcella is pictured here wearing Artemis' original outfit.
