Introducing Myself

Hello! I’m Katie, 26, she/her. My main is @dreamiekatie​, but I wanted to make a sideblog since that wouldn’t fit in with what I reblog. 

I’ve always loved AG dolls and just got back into collecting them when I was 24. Unfortunately I gave away my previous collection (which consisted of Marisol, Molly, Nicki, and Elizabeth) when I moved as a 14 y/o so I have to start from the bottom. Pictured below are Kit, (my absolute FAVE) Rebecca, Molly, and Melody! Not pictured are my BeForever Samantha I’m going to sell and my childhood JLY 27, who I cannot find. You might see me post more about Kit though, as she’s the only one at my apartment as I don’t have enough room, the rest (save for Sam) are at my mom’s. (Pics from my IG since I don’t have the OG pics anymore.)

Outside of dolls, my other hobbies include alternative fashion and anime. I also love to write and read and I’m a huge Green Day fan. I’m happy to be here!

Happy first night of Hanukkah! Rebecca says that it’s her favorite holiday. She feels very grown-up in her elegant, lacy dress with a ribbon sash. 

I made Rebecca’s menorah, as well as her little dreidel and her Russian nesting doll that she has named Beckie.

“To jump over centuries In one step is impossible. Jump too high or far, You’ll be way too late”

American girl dolls that are seperated by amost exactly a century or 2 apart.

My dolls have chronically frizzy hair, and I’m always lowkey looking for ways to make it better. I read somewhere about Volks Hair Wax, which is designed for BJD dolls, and how it is used for photo shoots to smooth hair without making it crunchy or greasy. 

I’m slowly getting my dolls ready for fall and winter holidays, and Rebecca had the messiest hair of the ones I’m working on, so she gets to be my model. Here she is, freshly dressed, hair unbrushed: 

Ooh, those flyaways! Dolly bedhead is real.

After brushing only:

Better, but a bit dry and still have plenty of loose strands, and her curls are more like loose waves.

Fingerstyled curls with application of hair wax:

Much smoother, though still not quite how I like my Beckie to look.

Et voila! I used AG’s hair pick to separate the curls a little. 

The kidlet is ready for her close-up. I’m fine with a few loose strands, especially compared to her “I woke up like this” style in the first pic.

The “wax” is more like a slightly waxy lotion rather than an actual wax, and, unlike regular lotions, other users say it rinses out with just water.

Friday Night Sleepovers #3: Let's Put on a Show On this Friday night, Samantha Parkington, Addy Walker, Rebecca Rubin, and Allison Buckner (Truly Me #49) decided to put on a play in the format of a silent film. Samantha was the director and Addy, Rebecca, and Allison were the actresses. The girls had fun acting out their parts.
