Dollieh Sanctuary

is the sound of migration to our own forum! Yippeee! I'm happy to be here and feel at home already. Super silly and still loving dolls of many varieties. My largest collection being the sixthers consisting of Vintage Barbie, Fashion Royalty, Obitsu, Volks and some others whose names and manufacturer I've forgotten, but usually wonderfully poseable as that's what I love. Plus I have a variety of tiny resins. Two Tonners 40cms. Some reborns, silicone babies and a toddler of 39". Yes a varied collection. I love them one and all.

Most of all I like to tell stories and take photos, but those of you who know me, know that. Berri Delicious is my star. Her life is extraordinary and never a smooth ride. I've been writing for her for just over three years. Her stories are here http://berri403.livejournal.com/

The stories for the tinies are here http://pukateer.livejournal.com/.

Me? I live near the sea on the south coast of the UK near the amazing and inspiring town of Brighton. Look it up and enjoy a lively and interesting place. I love the quirkiness of it and feel very at home there.

I hope more people will find us and join in this wonderful hobby. I love making new dolly friends.

Happy waves to one and all,
Valli

btw that's my real name, not short for Valerie as many have thought.

Cor that intro is so dull... obviously I'm not that dull, those that know me, so I thought I ought to add something more in keeping with the real me.



OK so it's not dolls, but it's definitely ME!

Hi! Valli (waving) I see you have been very busy at posting. LOL It's nice to see you here. I hope someday you can continue your photostory.

I know I've been a crazy woman today. I just didn't like seeing those 0 posts next to all the new arrivals. I go gaga on a new board. Some sort of need to fill the gaps. I'm daft! I certainly want to get back to my story, but RL has just thrown another few spanners at me today. I'm really fed up! But... I'm not letting it stop me from chatting. Honestly, I think it's going to be the end of April before I even get near Berri's story. I so wanted to get on with it, but it's been one thing after another lately. Hubby and I are drinking more wine for comfort. Drat the real world. At least dolly world is fun.
