You...Hi Becca,<br /><br />I am glad you enjoyed this post. <br /><br />Your former coworker did have a delightful sense of humor. I can only imagine the expression on customers' faces when she instructed them to watch out for her evil twin. That is just too funny. I hope she is able to view this post and derive memories of her time at FAO. <br /><br />Thank you for sharing this. <br /><br />dbgBlack Doll Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534871309015210903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-61650290037511539672015-10-09T03:47:35.288-05:002015-10-09T03:47:35.288-05:00Thank you for the post.

Her hair is like that naturally, but she also used to like to wear wigs at work and occasionally would change into different wigs mid day. She worked at FAO Scharz in SF and sometimes she would wear her hair natural and sometimes wear a blonde or black or blood red straight hair bobbed wig and she would change into a wig if she changed the floor she was working on (FAO had two floors) Customers would ask her if she was the same person when they would see her on another floor and with different hair, and she would lie and tell them, "Oh, that's my twin sister, watch out for her she's evil" and the customers would get so freaked out. <br /><br />She has a great sense of humor. I laughed when she told me and it makes me laugh now to think of it. And her real hair is that same pretty brown color and texture of Elin's. I will have to tell her to see this. and see Elin with all those different wigs on and pretend she is working at FAO Schwarz freaking customers out by telling them to watch out for her "evil twin".queenbeetv88https://www.blogger.com/profile/17162930578546480313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-20462616636978352372015-10-08T06:47:31.440-05:002015-10-08T06:47:31.440-05:00I will try not to get addicted due to the cost of ...I will try not to get addicted due to the cost of BJDs and also their average size. I shy away from larger dolls, at least try to. It is a plus that many are in the larger size. I did salivate over Ashanti for a while but at 24 inches (I believe), she is just too tall for me. I would love to own a Kaye Wiggs BJD someday, however. <br /><br />Thanks for the invitation to visit your blog.

But resin BJDs are great to have, so I plan on getting 2 in larger sizes for clothes making.

I have not seen them in my area yet. I agree, they are an awkward size. They remind me of cuter versions of Tonner's Little Mismatched dolls (probably because they are a result of a collaboration between Tonner and One World Project Dolls, the makers of Tween Scene. In spite of their awkward size, they are something different for little girls to enjoy. <br /><br />dbgBlack Doll Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534871309015210903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-60922781015427039682015-10-07T18:19:23.282-05:002015-10-07T18:19:23.282-05:00Thank you simsgrl.

If you want to change the eye color, that can be challenging initially. The eyes have to be placed in properly otherwise the doll might be looking and you and looking at me. :-) I don't plan on changing her eye color since the extra pair I have are the same color already in, brown. I will take care when handling her. She is made of resin and the resin will stain. Hands must be clean and free of oil or other residues before handling. <br /><br />dbgBlack Doll Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534871309015210903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-38670441041854003242015-10-07T15:54:50.006-05:002015-10-07T15:54:50.006-05:00She's adorable, and looks awesome in that navy...She's adorable, and looks awesome in that navy dress!
