So much to say

I haven't made a blog post in a while! A lot has been going on and for some reason I only remember to post when I have tons of things to say xD

Thing #1: Why I'm busy
I've been really busy lately, not only with school but I'm also moving. It's in the same school district and I'll still be visiting my old house so it's not a huge deal! but there's no furniture, and we ordered all of are furniture from ikea so I'm going to have to spend this weekend setting up and putting it together! I haven't packed anything either, I'm going to have to decide what doll stuff to bring. (My room has a big closet though so that means more room for doll stuff xD)

Now, lets move on to thing #2: Pulips!
I know I've been more known for American Girl stuff, and I wanted to let everyone (people on my IG and YT) know that I still am "into" AG and will be making stopmotions on my youtbe, and probably clothes on my Etsy, too. But lately I have been more interested in Pullips! They're great for photography, and their poses/body looks a lot more realistic. I love their anime-ish style. I especially love how you can customize them and make your own unique character! I love having unique dolls, and AGs are pretty hard to customize, but pullips are a lot easier and I think look better as customs.
Another reason I'm taking more pullip photos lately is because I can't take any outside photos, because its seriously freezing and theres a ton of snow on the ground, so the only photos i can take are inside. pullips are a lot smaller and easier to take pics of inside, plus I made the room-box.
Now, onto pulip stuff...
I've changed the room box from what it looks like in the last post a lot! mostly just the furniture because I found a really great blog with wonderful tutorials. I have pics on my flickr and IG if you want to see bits of it.
Another thing I was working on was my entry for the I ♥ Pullipcon contest! Check out my flickr to see that! I think it came out pretty cool despite the couple of little teeny flaws that annoy me!
I also ordered Mizuki an obitsu yesterday because her legs were floppy and her hands were all stained-ish (what I get for making her crawl around in the dirt and stuff for my SMs and photos! xD). When it comes I might write a blog post on how they are and the long story that I'm sure will come with me trying to put it on her.

Here is a picture of Mizuki being a steampunk ninja for your entertainment. Have a nice day!

Pullip Room!

 Kitty! Look, I found us a house! 

 But Mizuki... This is a box.

 Well we've got to fix it up, silly! 

 Come on, Lets go get stuff!


Hi everyone, its Kitty here! This is my first time blogging... its kinda weird. As you can see, the other day Mizuki came to me and told me she had a surprise. It turned out to be a box, which she said we could use as our house. After that, she ran off to get "stuff". She's been really busy lately, I've seen her occasionally with paint and cans and wood making things. Today, I came to check and it appears to be done!
She painted the walls white and there's wood-looking floors. You can't see it but there's a round beige crocheted carpet. I'll have to make some artwork because the walls are a bit plain.

She even cut out a window in the wall complete with plastic glass, pretty floral curtain and even a little windowsill.

There's also a little white table with a vase of flowers.

There's even a little old-fashioned wood stove that makes the place so cozy and warm.


The bed was fluffy with a quilt that matched the curtains. The place was so nice and warm that I fell asleep!

It's such a nice house and even though you can kind of tell it's made of cardboard, Mizuki did a great job on it! Maybe someday we'll get one made out of a shelf or actual drywall.
