A cute craft for your 1/6th girls

Sophie: Hi everyone!
Do your 1/6th girls ever bug you for a dollhouse... but, like Heather, you're just not that skilled at building one?
(Me: HEY!!!)
Well, here's a quick, cute, easy solution!


This pdf pattern is free on etsy, just follow the link:


It will lead you to instructions and the pdf so you can print your own little house!

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:

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.

[Such a Doll] The arrival of [Ex Cute] Classic Alice Koron... maybe...

Twig: Hum de dum dum dum de dum *looking at her sketches*

Twig: Oh! Hi everyone *hides sketches*... it's me again... I wouldn't be back so soon,

Twig: but I've got a new girl to review. She's another Pure Neemo, 
an older one this time, but not too old...

Twig: Her name is:
*whips bubblewrap off for the big reveal*

[Ex Cute] Classic Alice Koron

Twig: Isn't she... uh... isn't she... uh... Alice? Where's ALICE?!

Twig: WHY? WHYYYY? I'M DOOMED!!! I'VE LOST A DOLLY!!!!

Twig: I'm in so much trouble... I'll never be able to explain this... where could she have gone?
Carrot walks up to see what Twig is crying about.
Carrot: Twig, what's wrong?
Twig: Oh, Carrot... I've lost the doll I'm supposed to review... 
she was here, in this box, and now she's gone!
The commotion is drawing a crowd!
 Carrot: That's terrible! *pats Twig on the head* There, there, I'll help you look!
Mouse: What's going on?!
Carrot: Twig can't find the new girl she's supposed to be doing a review on.
Mouse: Oh, that's bad... I'll help look too.
Twig: *sniffle* R... really?? *sniffle*
Mouse: Of course!
Twig: Alright! Let's go!
Carrot: Boy, she sure snaps back quick.
Mouse: No doubt...

Twig: There she is! I'll karate chop her and then you two grab her and we'll drag her back to her box!
Carrot: Uh... Twig...
Mouse:I don't think this is the new girl...

Sophie: *waves at Twig* Uh, yeah, it's me, Sophie, I just put my default outfit back on.

Twig: Oh, oh, hi Sophie, sorry, my mistake. The girl I'm looking for is kinda frilly too.

*a mysterious, and beautiful, pair of shoes comes shuffling up*

Alice: Hello, everyone! My name is Alice!

Alice: Hi!
Twig: AHHHH!! ALICE!!! Why aren't you in your box?!
Alice: It was stuffy :(
Sophie: Ah, so this is who you were looking for, I can see why you made the mistake!
That is a lovely dress, Alice! My name is Sophie, pleased to meet you!
Alice: Why, thank you! Pleased to meet you too!
Carrot: *shouts at the top of her lungs* ALICE!!!!!!!!!!
Mouse: Oh my! Hello, Alice!

Carrot: *GLOMP*
Alice: AHHHHHH!
Twig: Whoa....

Carrot: We haven't seen you in forever! We missed you so much!! *hugs Alice*
Mouse: Alice, I'm so glad to see you're doing ok! We worried so much about you being left behind!
Alice: *blushes* Oh, thank you! I didn't know you were so concerned! I missed you terribly!
Mouse, Carrot and Alice used to live together at baldylox's house, but then Carrot and Mouse moved here, and Alice was left behind... ever since then, Carrot and Mouse have been very worried about Alice. They all missed each other terribly!
Alice: I am so pleased to be here! I'm so happy!
Sophie: You know, you *do* look kinda familiar...
Sophie and Alice are both the Koron face... they *should* look similar, LOL!
Alice: Thank you for welcoming me!
Sophie: No, seriously... you look *REALLY* familiar!
LOL, poor Sophie!
Twig: *whew* Ok! Now that that's done, let's get on with the review!
This is Alice's box... it's also cardboard, with Ex Cute printed on it, but the blue part with Koron's name is a sticker. I suspect they used this same box for Black Alice Lien too...

Twig: Since her picture is also printed on the back!
I have to say, the newer boxes are much more clever in terms of pricing... they are clear plastic, and all the naming and branding is on card stock paper that slips inside. It looks much snazzier than these older boxes too... or even Madoka's box!

Twig: Alice comes with her little bunny, a hair bow, those beautiful shoes, stockings, pantaloons, an apron and a blue dress! Everything in her set is just beautiful, and very, very well made!
She does have an older body, though, and her ankle joints are very weak... so I suspect that body may be replaced in the near future.

Anyhow, thank you for listening to me again as I babble about dollies!
And a great big welcome to Alice!!!

[All That Glitters] Robot Mood Ring

 Good Morning, Everyone!
Sophie here!

I found the most amazing thing the other day while I was out shopping.
Do you ever just go into some random store you would never usually go into, and then just find the most amazing thing?
That is what happened to me!

I stopped into a 7/11, something I never do, because Pita, Bunny and Peapod wanted some potato chips while they studied, and it was the fastest stop on my way back from the mall.

ANYHOW! The point is, when I went up to the counter to buy the chips, I saw THESE!!!!
 
This picture shows just the one ring... it's the most changey mood ring I've ever seen!
It's so awesome!

But... what does a little girl like me do with a ring like this? 
(Too bad it's not going to fit on my finger)

The solution is simple :) I now have the coolest hair tie ever!
Adjustable rings make AWESOME hair ties!

 Have you ever tried them? 
You should!

[The Chocolate Box] Meijer Chocolate Covered Cherries

OMG, OMG, OMG! It's finally my turn!
Hi!!! My name is Sophie!
I'm gonna get straight to the point.
I like chocolate.
I mean, I REALLY like chocolate.
I nibble on the stuff all the time.
It's a good thing I'm made of plastic, otherwise I'd gain a million pounds!

Anyhow!
Today's chocolate are Meijer Brand Chocolate Covered Cherries.

Positives?
They were very big!
And their bag had a nice design... very chocolatey!
Negatives?
Compared to other Chocolate Covered Cherries I've had (Cherry Republic!!),
these ones were pretty bitter, and the quality of the Chocolate was not so good. A bit waxy.
Oh pooey! So bitter!
All in all, I do not think I'll buy them again.
What a sad day for chocolate. :(
