Playing with a new lens

I recently got a new lens for my camera... and it is SO much better than my old one... here are a few pics:

Here is The Salacious Crumb looking annoyed.

He is an unhappy camper lately because his fur has grown back to it's full length while I've been sick. He prefers the lion cut. XD I also call him Fluffernutter and Crumbles.

Himeno and Miu :)

Himeno and Miu again.

Zinnia (Dollfie Dream Miki)

Her hair isn't that crazy... I was just having fun with filters.

Zinnia is such a happy girl.

Random Kitchen Shot.

These adorable Sylvania Family rement I bought years ago...

I so wish I'd bought more.

Waaaaaall-eeeeeeeee

He always looks so sad.

Doing Good So Far!

Well, so far I've kept up with my goal of taking at least one picture a day (you can check all of them out on my tumblr feed, the link is to right (the big Instagram logo))...

so, needless to say, there are a lot of pictures. Don't worry, I'm not going to share them all, I just thought I'd share the new girls who have arrived.

First up, the most AWESOME Monster High girl ever. Her whole body is sculpted as a skeleton, it's amazing. Poor girl will have to run around almost naked forever XD

There is an Iplehouse Jessica who is visiting for a faceup :)

My lovely Alna (on the left, a Normal Skin Alna) is finally reunited with her little sister, Bird (a White Skin Alna):

An adorable little Nendoroid has moved in who I have named "Mini Me"

Picco Neemo Koron also moves in, she's really adorable... and so is Forest Girl Miu, who has also moved in:

Another DD joined the ranks here, DD Sakuya, whose name is Robin! She was my #1 top dream DD girl... and I still can't believe she's here now!:

Then there are a few dolls visiting me... first up is Miki Hoshii (another of my dream dolls, lol, it will be hard to send her home again XD) Miki is on the right, and my girl, Jun is on the left, they get along quite smashingly:

Finally, Mei is visiting... she's another WS Alna... here she is hanging out with my two Alna girls (Mei is on the left, Bird in the middle and Alna on the right):

So, it's been a pretty busy time of incoming dolls!

Mugi and the box

Hello Everyone!

You haven't officially met Mugi yet...

she doesn't have a bio up or anything,

but she was the subject of yesterday's photos!

Mugi: Hi everyone! This box arrived and Heather said I could open it!

Mugi: *digdigdig*

Mugi: Somehow, I don't think this is for me!

Mugi: Ooooh, this either... weapons are scary!

Mugi: All of this is certainly for me though!

Mugi: How perfect! A Galvatron! I shall name him Galvatim!

Mugi: This figure of Miki makes me weep! Such ignorant, half-aged joy! ;_;

Mickey Mouse

I took a little time today to better organize the "Meet the Neemos" tab... 

So please stop by to see the changes and learn a little bit more about them
(I added info to all of their bios)

However, while organizing them alphabetically... I noticed something, 

since these two come one right after another:

Would you look at that? Mickey Mouse... or, Miki Mouse, as the case may be!

Introduction of a new girl, review of Azone clothes and explaining my naming process

Another girl has joined the fold here at The Majokko Shop, but today her introduction will not be done by Twig (I know, I'm sorry... Twig is pretty good at them)

Her company name is:

[EX☆CUTE] Majokko☆Chiika / littlewitch of the heart

and my name for her is Bridget.

Now, I know there are a lot of girls living here, so I thought I'd break down the naming process for a few of the girls... because there actually is one.

Every single Pure Neemo who is from the [EX☆CUTE] Majokko series is named after a witch. Here are the girl's names listed, with the source for those names:

Prue: Charmed

Samantha: Bewitched

Sophie: Howl's Moving Castle

Bridget: Practical Magic

... I'm waiting for the day when I add one of the witches from Discworld. I *really* want a Weatherwax... but just haven't met the Neemo that fits that name yet XD

I was tempted to name Bridget "Tiffany" (Wee Free Men series)... but I just can't see this girl dealing with Nac Mac Feegle AT ALL.

Next!

All of my girls from the Madoka series just keep their names from the anime.

Simple enough.

Everyone else is sort of helter-skelter on name origin... so if their names come from a special source, I'll list it below: 

Kana and Anise are named after the two main human characters in my favorite online comic:

Nemu*Nemu

Pita is actually named after Peeta from The Hunger Games... I just thought, as a Neemo, his name would be cuter with the actual bread spelling.

Alice is named after Alice from Alice in Wonderland, which I love... and considering my girl's default outfit and name, this one *really* wasn't a stretch of the imagination.

Let's move on though... When Bridget arrived, so did some new fashions!
These are from Azone's newest collection for Pure Neemos:

Alisa is really loving her new outfit, and borrowing Anna's hat and shoes is a lot of fun. The skirt is actually part of a Bratz outfit, but all the rest of this outfit is Azone brand.

Anna is really loving her new outfit, it fits her great and she feels so stylish! This entire outfit is Azone brand.

This jumper was the only item I took issue with (and it was the most expensive too)... it's supposed to be for a S size body, but it's even big on the M size body. I'm a little unhappy with that. It's still cute, but it's a lot bulkier and not as well fitted as most Azone Pure Neemo clothes are. The top on this outfit is actually a Bratz top, but the rest of the outfit is Azone brand.

I am really in love with some of these and will have to buy more I think.

[Goodwill Hunting] Easter Finds!

Hello again!

Today we found some really lovely Easter type items in our scale!

There were two glass Easter eggs and a lovely basket (it's really ceramic, but it looks woven!) that will make awesome decorations for the holiday.

We also found the blue beaded necklace you see... it's really pretty, and has very fine chain, in case Heather wants to make jewelry for us... plus all the beading can be broken down into different necklaces... that is... if Heather doesn't decide to just keep it for herself.

[Such a Doll] [ Mahō Shōjo Madoka Magika | Miki Sayaka ] (school uniform)

Good Afternoon, everyone!

Twig here!

It's time for the formal introduction of Miki!

Or, to use her full name: 

[ Mahō Shōjo Madoka Magika | Miki Sayaka ] (school uniform)

 
She's Madoka's best friend, and pretty darn cute!

 Miki, unlike Madoka, is a M size body.

Madoka: I love Miki... she's my best friend!!

She does come in their same ol' school uniform, so my review for that is the same as my review for Madoka's... stupid attached bow!

She comes in a box pretty much identical to Madoka's, except this particular Miki came with a sticker saying she's from Wonderfest... which means she also came with...

Twig: GAH, always with the screaming when they see these white cats... what's the deal?

 4 Kyubey's, 3 of which were exclusive to the event.

She also comes with little metal barrettes that I haven't photographed yet, because I don't want to take them out... I'm afraid if I use them, I'll lose them!!! XD

Overall, she's cute as heck... one more Magical Girl rescued!!!

On a side note... I have been making buttons lately :)
