Apocatiel

I'm the crazy bird girl and I'm here to say
I love BJDs in a major way!

I received my first doll recently, Peak's Woods Mori Moth. I fell for her as soon as I saw her promo photos. She reminds me of a happy little songbird! I am really happy with her from head to toe! So beautiful! ^_^

I'm new to this beautiful hobby. I love the creativity on display here at Den of Angels and on Flickr - the customization, the photos, the stories!

There are a number of clothing styles that I love. I swoon over the beautiful Chinese traditional dress and Japanese kimono, I adore Victorian-style clothing, and also EGL and cute casual outfits (dresses and skirts). I really can't make up my mind!

Current Sewing Project: A grey pleated skirt for Mori Moth.

I started out my research thinking that I'd purchase a blank doll and make my own mark and do the face-up myself. But there are two things I have discovered:

1. I have a long way to go to be able to paint matching eyes on flat paper - so painting a 3-D sculpture is quite beyond me at the moment.
2. The professionally painted face-ups by the doll companies are just so beautiful.

My current "grail" doll is Peak's Woods Skiya. Skiya has such a sweet, wistful expression. Will she ever be sold again??
