[OlmanOz]

B. My eyesight is not good enough unless I do it in the morning or with a strong light, and

I once made a dress from an extra thong that belonged to Kwench.

That is very cool. ...! You could easily make some long stockings out of that too. . Lacy undies are very cheap at Kmart, or in your case Walmart.
I'm giving away all my secerts but most of Chloe's clothes are just bits of material carefully placed for the photograph, sticky taped or pegged.

Her denim skirt is just a piece of denim cut from the leg of an old pair of jeans. Making use of the stitching already there and sticky taped in place.

Her top was a strip of material. I dappened it down, folded over the ends and ironed it so that the top and bottom Edge would look neat.

Then just wrapped it around her and used some tiny pegs to hold it on.

Damn. And we thought you were a seamstress.

If it mean't hanging out with half naked "RG's" all day, it wouldn't be a bad job.

Ted whispered in my ear tonight. Apparently Chloe told him my hands were a little rough on her skin and sometimes dirty. So I thought the easiest thing to do would be to wear some cotton gloves when I carry her from place to place.

For those of you who live in Australia they are available at wizard chemist shops for $2.49. They have all sizes from extra small to extra large.
And for goodness sake Chloe, put down that Gun for a while. ...!

If you put it down I'll give you a nice bit of pampering with some baby powder.

Wow, she got those clothes off very quick...!
Hmmmpff......."Girls"........
I keep a little powder in an old Vegemite jar just to make it easy to get at, and stop it going everywhere from constantly shaking the bottle. And the brush I use is a bit like a lipstick tube. When you twist the end the brush pulls in and out so you can make the brush stiff and heavy for brushing hair if you want or fluffy and loose just for powdering if you wind it right out. It's a great little gadget I found in my mum's drawer.

But a word of warning. I just discovered wearing gloves means you have no feeling in the ends of your fingers. So use caution when moving her arms around because you can pull out some of her hair if you're not careful, you cannot feel it if it gets trapped between your fingers and her arms.

Looks to me like you better get one of those untangle brushes soon! Looks like she is headed for an Afro and that will be tough to untangle...lol

I use a man's comb for this. In an extreme case, detangler or fabric softener might help, but I never needed it.

[OlmanOz]

I did actually see one of those detangler brushes in the shop today. But it seems very big to me and not appropriate for mini dolls. Better for the full size girls.
I am thinking a very fine comb but not plastic. something that is anti-static.
Just a thought, perhaps even a very light smear of water based moisturizer would help the hair de frizz and stay in place,particularly for photographs. I may give that a try later.
But for now I need to sleep. As last night I only had 3 hours. So while the toys are sleeping I better go do the same.

Chow for now

[brigittes hubbie]

Hi Olman, have a ggod night of sleep. The brush is a cool thing, great!
