Well I have been busy over the last few weeks doing some new dresses. This range I have called the princess range “Everything that glitters is gold”. Each baby doll dress is completed with a vintage print and some … Continue reading
Yesterday I spent the day fiddling around with some of my images to create my new
LOLLIPOPPET Facebook Timeline cover.
It took me a good few hours but I am pleased with the result.
It looks a little funny above as the black haired custom doll “Miss Sydney” (2011 travelling doll for weplaywithdolls) appears to be floating in mid air BUT when the cover is published on facebook she is actually sitting ontop of the lollipoppet profile logo. Miss Sydney is wearing the Lollipoppet Pantaloons and matching bow tie shirt. She was sitting near the mornington pier (Victoria Australia) in this photo this is the reason why she is wearing no shoes.
To the right of her is my 1972 Kenner Blythe doll. She is a redhead with chunky bangs (fringe). She is wearing an original lollipoppet vintage dress. This is my current style.
It is completely tea stained and then completed with laces, trims etc so each dress is unique.
The lovely doll in the centre is an original vintage Blonde 1972 Kenner Blythe doll.
She is wearing a lollipoppet beret and matching dress, complete with teeny buttons and a pin tucked bib.
To the right is a girl that I missed out on when first released so I was glad to purchase her off Christina (JamFancy) when she put her up for adoption. She is called
Miss Sally Rice and was released by Takara /Hasbro in 2008. She has Transluscent skin which is different to many of the other dolls which had been released prior to her and photographs so well.
My Miss Sally rice is wearing a Lollipoppet Disco Paisley Jumpsuit!!
Now the last girl to the very right sitting comfortably on a toadstool is also an original 1972 Vintage Kenner Blythe. She was my very first kenner Doll.
This vintage doll is a whispy banged Raven Brunette kenner Blythe doll from 1972. She is wearing a Lollipoppet handmade dress with vintage japanese fabric on the sleeves and gorgeous vintage barbie squishy Mod boots. I love these boots and am trying to collect them in every colour they have been released in.
So if you have any vintage barbie mod boots that you would like to sell, just pop me an email

Well it was great having my second travelling Blythe doll stop~over for a while here in my lovely town on the Mornington Peninsula.
She is a gorgeous doll! She was originally a Takara Simply Mango Neo Blythe doll. Then she was customised with a new face and new hair !!
Her hair is lush, a lovely soft baby pink mohair which has been beautifully done by Sue (Jam Slammington). Her divine little face was customised by Maria (Chu Things).
I had lots of fun with her – taking the majority of shots with my very own customised chu things doll! Maria did a beautiful little face for me and for many long late nights I did my very own white mohair re-root.
I was lucky to have this lovely travelling doll with me for around a fortnight and was yesterday handed over to my lovely friend Stella C for a little bit of lovin!
Miss Q (Miss Queensland) enjoyed many days doing bike riding, vespa rides, long walks and lazing in the sun.
I hope you enjoy the photos on my slideshow below.

New Year… New Look
Well its January 2012 and I decided over the Christmas break that I needed a fresh new look for my label. I am hoping this year the lollipoppet label is going to grow bigger and better.
With my youngest going to 3-year-old kinder it may give me a little more extra time on my hands to get stuck back into my sewing on a regular basis.
As I get things nearer to completion and ready to sell in my store, I will be sure to pop them on here and also on my flickr…
I am looking forward to doing some new clothing for Blythe Dolls, Peteena, Usaggie and also a few children’s items as well.
So if you wish to know whats coming up in the near future be sure to click the “follow me link”
