Meet Felicity, Possibly Again

Felicity an OOAK Barbie

Felicity* arrived yesterday from Chynadoll Creations.  She patiently awaited my arrival at the post office where I was pleasantly surprised by her presence.

I knew her face looked familiar after removing her from the white bubble wrap envelope in the parking lot of the post office.  (I couldn't wait to get home to open it because I read the return address label in the PO lobby and knew something fabulous was inside.)  I didn't make the connection until several hours later when I saw her image on Facebook.  I backtracked and read Chynadoll's July January 27th entry, which confirmed my revelation.  Who knew the friend referred to in the statement, "Felicity was created for a fellow blogger friend of mine as a belated gift," referred to me.  :-)

Touched, honored, blessed are just a few of the emotions I continue to feel.

The gorgeous Felicity wears a strapless dress designed by Chynadoll.  She has additional handcrafted goodies: an Ebony magazine, an adorable little puppy, and a cell phone.  She also has a handbag by Mattel, as shown in the full-length image above (click to enlarge).

As described on her intro blog, Felicity has re-rooted, loosely curled brown hair with platinum blonde streaks.  Her alluring eyes are gray with the most beautifully feathered eye brows.  Her lilac lip color matches the main color of her print dress.  She has three tattoos; one on her chest, one on her left arm, and one on her left thigh.  The two larger ones are clearly butterflies.  I was told several years ago by a pathology resident at a local hospital that butterflies mean good luck.  I have loved them ever since.

Thanks so much Chynadoll for this very, very sweet surprise.  I love Felicity and will cherish her forever.

*Before realizing who Felicity was, I showed her to my husband and said, "She needs a name."  He said, "Britney."  So before I made the connection that Britney already had a name and that I had already seen her in cyberspace eight days prior, her name was Britney.  In fact, the original title of this blog was "Meet Britney."

PO Box Surprise from an Angel

Debbie, a gorgeous Chynadoll Creation

Yesterday's visit to the post office to check the contents of my PO box was met with a very pleasant doll surprise from a beautiful angel. 

A few weeks ago, the doll that I discovered in my PO Box yesterday, was sent to the Chynadoll Salon as a gift, but in a wild-haired, loose-jointed, nude state.  Once there, I knew she would receive the necessary pampering to restore her beauty.  I had no idea, however, that she would find her way back to me! 

After the makeover, Chynadoll unveiled before-and-after salon treatment images here.   Honored to have this now gorgeous doll named after me, I shared Chynadoll's link with fellow doll enthusiasts.  Like me, they were amazed at the magic Chynadoll worked.  I commented to these enthusiasts, "I almost want the doll back."  I had no idea I was writing that desire into existence.

Thank you Chynadoll for: 1) being such a creative angel; 2) working your makeover magic on the doll that was originally a hopeless basket case;  3) for making her my namesake; and 4) for your generous gesture of returning her to me.

Doll friends are truly the best!
