I didn't feel totally inspired to do a Valentine's Day post -- though I am very glad some blogging buddies did, like Mini Modern and Modern Mini Houses -- and instead ended up with a post-Valentine contemplative scene. I had this Kaleidoscope House doll lying around from my book cover job assignment (like Jasper, she did not make the cut either), and placed her looking off the balcony in a forlorn way...perhaps she just got up from her writing and is in a thoughtful space. She seems a little sad perhaps, but in control of the moment.

Beautiful room.
ReplyDeleteBye Faby
Wow, your work is so beautiful... and she does seem a bit forlorn and contemplative. I really like the shot... and the house.
ReplyDeleteMy girl's house is nowhere near as cool (or as finished) ... and probably never will be, LOL!
Thanks for stopping by, Faby!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Heather! Keep on plugging away on the house...slow progress is still progress! :)
ReplyDeleteForlorn indeed. Looks like she's waiting for her Romeo. I love the emotion. Cool room set up, too. :D
ReplyDeleteIndeed, Mini Dork! Thanks for liking my moody post.
ReplyDeleteGreat scene---and liking how the Highland is coming along. Also, I know doll figures aren't particularly your thing--but the experiment is going quite well...Smiles!
ReplyDeleteThanks, MC! I need to make much more progress on the Highland...I think I might tackle the sad bathroom next. I do like working with the dolls occasionally, and might have to acquire some of those Dr. Who dolls soon!
