Does absence make the heart grow fonder...?

When away from home I always like to bring dolls with me, after all, I like to sew for them so it would be pointless not to bring a model...or three! Also though, I just like to have dolls around me, so even if I weren't sewing, there would be a couple of dolls here to just look at and redress. But often I find that although I'm really happy with the dolls I've brought with me, so I hanker after, or miss, those that are left behind....and this causes me to look at their photos on my laptop. I was doing just this today and thought I'd share some older photos of my very naughty Secretdoll Persons. I know that I've posted some of these photos on here before, so I apologise for that, but hope that for some of my 'followers' they'll be new photos and that you'll enjoy them.

For those that don't know, the Persons are made of resin by the company Secretdoll in South Korea. Although they are approx 19cm tall, their big heads take up a large proportion of that height! They wear size 6/7 inch wigs on their egg heads and they don't have any ears....although this doesn't stop them hearing everything that is going on! Their bodies are really skinny with tiny little feel of approx 2.2cm in length!

My two, Persephone, known as Percy, is a Person 21 and Kobi is a Person No 8. Both of them have lived with me since new and arrived in July 2011. They have very strong personalities and Kobi is the ringleader...if there is trouble to be found, then she will find it. Percy though, is her willing accomplice!!

Here are some of my favourite photos of them, I hope you enjoy!!

The girls hanging out at the coast....Percy, on the left, looks as if she is sulking about something, in this photo!
