Large An Angel's Garden Party

For the decade birthday crew I am finally ready to honor my dear Chelsea. She turned ten in December and I've finally given her the updated Faceup I wanted, as well as made her some new eyes that actually show up in pictures. So she's ready to party
The way we do...
In the garden with a cup of tea and a good book.

Chelsea is Loongsoul ChenXing with faceup and nail extensions by me
Wearing dress and jewelry by me
Licht wig, eyes by me
Bird was from Michael's crafts ten years ago
Quilt by me
Miniature books and dragonware teacup were thrifted

[The gardenia bush in the background was courtesy of my late grandma, who never got to see it bloom the first time, so it was important to me to get some nice photos with it this year in her memory]

Thank you for looking
Have a wonderful weekend!

 

Thank you so much @Jareth ! I am crazy about this fabric, I think I got both prints on this dress from Walmart actually

 

Aw thank you @Isabeau ! I finally really like it too it's been a long decade

 

Ah, thank you! And that makes me so happy @LikablePlatypus they are definitely nice and fragrant

 

Thanks for all your kind words @Gamma Ray
I did kind of imagine the bird was talking to her. Partly because I've been in a weird rabbit hole of watching videos about parrots and budgies and all the things they can learn and say.
Her legs are so long it's silly, but I didn't have the energy to stand her up that time, I figured she can do some standing poses next time.
And thank you. Grandma was always very impressed by the doll dresses and would have been by her gardenia too
