Christmas in July

 New Christmas tree, New doll.

We bought a new Christmas tree a few weeks ago and it arrived at the end of July. We opened the box to check if everything was alright and to see if we like it. It is beautiful and met all of my expectations. Also everyone else loves it!
It should be beautiful with ornaments. 

What is a Christmas tree without gifts?

Meet Emilia, or Emma. She is my new Gingham Sasha doll, just out of the box. The body and clothes are in pristine condition. I don't think she was played with at all. Also, the hair has yellowish streaks over the blond that haven't come out after washing.

After the bathing. She found my pajama set very comfortable. 

All cleaned up and ready to meet her new family.

She does not have her box. I don't know the exact year of production, but from looking at her stringing, neck ring, clothes, and shoes, she was made somewhere between 1979 and 1983.

Merry Christmas!

 Happy Holidays to all my doll friends!
I wish you good health and happiness, a lot of inspiration, and new, beautiful ideas with your dolls and other hobbies. 
Stay safe and I hope your holidays are wonderful.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Santa's little helper, helped to deliver toys to our Sasha children! This year there were a lot of beautiful toys and books and sweets. We borrowed this beautiful costume from one of our Boyd's Bears family.
With some adjustments, it fits a baby Sasha nicely. 

We also have a new Christmas tree here in the doll corner this year. I am very happy with how it turned out. I wanted a tree with a specific look, and it is exactly as I imagined it. 

I will post more pictures of Sasha dolls with their presents later. The days are very short, and there is  too much artificial light in the evening! Daytime pictures look so much better.

Also, we had a very interesting guest today who was checking out our tree ornaments and toys. 

It is Prudence, she approved everything and left peacefully. :)
