Credits:
First model is Sylphina Angel. She is Rosengarden Rosemion (blushed to match) on Doll Chateau 1/4 scale girl body (Bella). Her faceup and all clothing is by me.

Second model is Hawa. He is Switch Ryun:R on Resinsoul bigger boy body with hands changed out to Iplehouse YID girl hands.
His faceup is still by 6anli (with some repair by me) because in 2 years I have not bothered to repaint him yet. Whoops. (But the faceup suits him).

The first set with Sylphina was taken about a year ago. The child of the basil plant shown in the last picture is on my desk right in front of me as we speak. The second set I took yesterday just playing around with the cherished Narwhal Baby. (A discontinued? Walmart tiny vinyl baby doll with such weird proportions that I think he's comically in scale. He is not Hawa's baby technically, but Hawa is very gentle and fit to care for him. The baby is canonically Chelsea's even though it has no father that I know of. And none of this really matters I just find it amusing.


Thanks like always for looking!
Wishing everyone the best in 2026!

 

Thank you for the nice comments @RabbidBunnies
I'm glad you have one of these great babies too. They are incredibly charming and silly. I'm very much not a baby doll person usually but this one fits right in around here. He's definitely one of those random little trinkets I have that brings me more joy than expected.

 

Thank you @thedarkeststar13
