Little Red Riding Hood - A Photoshoot

 As my photoshoots can quickly spiral down into nothing, I've tried to give myself more props in my pictures, or a set theme, or goal. This theme was, obviously, Little Red Riding Hood.

 Which photo is your favorite?

Molly's Red Balloon

For my brothers birthday, we released helium balloons into the air after church, with bible verses and other things written on note attached to them.
We had some little water balloons left over from something so I asked my mom to fill one up. Doll sized heilum balloon!
Hence this short photoshoot. :)

That's all for now, folks! So sorry for hardly ANY posts what so ever. I'm a failing blogger. Always have been. XD

Molly's Adventure - Part Two

And we now returned to the scheduled programming... Yes that's right, I finally photographed it. :D (Haven't read part one? Click here to read it)

 At the sight of the Tiger, Molly quickly scurried down the nearby ladder, and in the backdoor. She knew her brother had a gun some where.. she just had to locate it. 

 Seconds later she appeared again, a grim look of determination on her face. In her outstretched hand she held a gun-- her brother's pretend pop gun, mind you.

 The tiger was no longer in sight. She ran very carefully over to the tree and called up it. "All look outs to ground, watch carefully for a deadly tiger, striped, moving at amazing speeds..." She backed up to the tree and again scanned her surroundings. The tiger was gone!

 She peered over fence out at the woods. Suddenly she noticed a small brown blur whiz by.

 "Aha! Hold the fort, I'll be back!" She cried as she took off running, frantically waving her gun in the air. "I'm coming to get you Tiger!"

 Once she arrived the the outskirts of the wild jungle, she slunk behind a nearby tree. The Tiger had again disappeared. There was no movement in the dense jungle brush.

  Out of the blue (or should I say out of the green) came running two furious cats, one a tiger, the other a stealthy panther!

 Molly, determined, held up her gun. The Tiger simply sat and gave her a look of "GRRR I'm a furious monster!!"But, upon looking closer at said beast, Molly lowered her gun. It was adorable!

Suddenly Molly froze. Coming up on her side was a smooth, silky, black figure, rubbing agaisnt her. Shaking she dropped her gun. The panther was right next to her!

 Molly screamed and pelted out of the woods back to the house. Those tricky cats! Looking cute while the other ambushes from behind. "Cats!" She shouted indignantly. Without looking back she continued running all the way to the back door, and slammed it as she walked in.

"Never trust cats!" Molly said quickly, out of breath. Emily looked up to see her friend, dressing up her dolls. "Never!"
Emily blinked confused. Molly did this sort of thing, leaving with one goal and coming back defeated in something completely different. It must be American.
"Well," She smiled. "I see you found an adventure!"


Thanks for reading, and have a blessed day :D (or rest of day, considering it's super late now)

Molly's Adventure Part 1 - A Mini Photostory

 It was a warm sunny afternoon, and Molly Mcintire had just arrived home from. She slowly trudged up the stairs and fell back on her bed. For an hour she lay there, listening to Emily mumble about math.
"I need to do something! I haven't done anything all day besides school."

 Emily, who was busing herself by going over the math homework for the third time, only began to do long division aloud.

 "Okay, I'm going on an adventure." Molly said aburtly, sitting up and pulling on her shoes.
Emily, who was clearly math dream land looked up at her friend.
"Molly, would you like to go over your work with me? I could help you along if you like."
Molly shook her head. "Nah, I'm going on an adventure!"

 And off she went, down the stairs and out the door.

 Once she reached the backyard, Molly scrambled up the ladder and into the tree.
"Golly it's pretty out here." She sighed to herself, looking all about.
But, standing around and admiring the scenery is what she had done at school all day, looking out the window.

 So, being the adventurous girl she was, Molly quickly climbed up another branch, leading to a higher section of the tree. She kept going up, even though her pesky glasses began sliding around.

This, was her army base. She was a spotter, and had to watch carefully for any signs of the enemy, to be able to alert her troops. She clung to the tree, and scanned the sky.
"No enemies in sight. Keep watch on the ground, it could be a sneak attack." She whispered to her assistant.

After assuring herself that her enemies would not be dive bombing the base today, she climbed back down and scanned the surrounding territory. Suddenly, she gasped. "May day, may day! Quick alert the ground troops out enemy has been spotted!" She shouted frantically, turning to climb back up to the look out post.

The tiger was closing in... fast!

Whats going to happen? I don't know! I'll post the next part soon.

Do any of your dolls have sudden imaginative bursts?

How to Make a Dandelion Crown for AG's or you!

 Hey guys! It's SUCH a nice, warm day outside, and I wanted to make an outdoor craft. What better to do than a Dandelion crown! Dandelions are bright yellow flowers that grow literally EVERYWHERE. They are considered weeds by a lot of people, but are incredibly useful ones! The whole thing is edible, the leaves for salad, frying the blossoms in batter, and the roots can be used to make dandelion coffee (please google this if you want to try, I'm not knowledgeable in every detail.
:D )
If you can pick small enough dandelions, than this "crown" can be a great accessory
(or subject) of a photoshoot. Based off the Daisy tutorial, here is my version!

 1. Collect 10 or more (the more the flowers, the thicker the crown) dandelions. Try to find the smallest ones.

 2. Take one of the dandelions, and make a slit close to the bud (if you want a crown with a lot of flowers) or mid stem (if you want a slightly thinner crown)

 3. Take another Dandelion and slid it through the hole.

 4. Clip the excess stem of the first flower, but be carefull that you you don't break it close to your slit, as that could cause the whole crown to fall apart.

 5. With the second Dandelion, make another slit and repeat steps 2-4 until you've used all of your flowers.

6. After all the flowers are used, set the chain on your dolls head, and check to see that it's the right size. Take flowers out if it's too big, and add more if its too short. Once the size is right, slit another hole in the very first flower, and line up the last slit with the first, and push another dandelion through. This should keep it connected.

There you go! You could even experiment with different types of flowers, such has violets, daisies, etc. If you do try it, comment a link to the picture or post so I could see it! That would be awesome.  Have a great day :3
