Shelly/Kelly - Prince & the Pauper |
I have a fascination with things that are small.
I guess thats why a greater part of my collection is made up of tiny pieces of plastic in the shape of real things - I have Barbie to thank for that ;)
I also love small dolls. I think the idea behind keeping it small, is so they dont take up much room. That is a fallacy. One small doll doesnt take up much room. However, when there is one, the others will come...
Seriously.
It started with one Kelly. I now have several Kelly, Chelsea, Jenny, Tommy, and a few others... and clothing, shoes... pets...
Have you seen some of the OOAK (One of a kind) Kelly dolls? Theyre awesome. I so admire those artists who can make such big changes on such a small canvas... And turn seams on those tiny sewn outfits!? Crazy
