Whitney has a new sister named Mandy. She is so happy to introduce her to you! 🙂

Whitney is giving a sweet teddy to her sister Mandy. 🙂

Mandy is thrilled to have a new teddy to love. ❤

Mandy is wearing a nice shorts outfit made by Norvell Jones. 🙂

Mandy up close. She is an early Cora with a large silver tag and she came in her white knitted outfit and red leather sandals that I have put away for another day. I love her soft curls and pretty face. ❤

Mandy is wearing red patent sandals that came with an outfit on Shelly’s site. I think red is such a good color for Mandy. ❤

Well, look who is here! Polly has stopped by to meet Mandy and to say hello! Polly is a Nikki repaint and some of you may remember that I have been trying different wigs on her. This wig is very soft and Polly likes it a lot!

Polly is wearing a pretty smocked dress that is not tagged. Whitney wears her lovely turquoise and black dress made by Vintage Sasha. Mandy wanted to wear shorts to play in and she will wear a nice dress on a different occassion.

How nice, Ebo has joined the girls. 🙂

Ebo and Polly.

Ebo was repainted by Shelly Baxter.

Polly and Ebo have been close siblings since Ebo arrived at Sasha Shangri-La. ❤

Ebo is a very kind hearted boy.

Ebo up close.

I really like this wig on Polly. 🙂

Polly up close. ❤

Mandy is happily joining the family. We all wish you a happy weekend ahead. 🙂
Thank you for visiting us and we would like to share a couple of watercolors created on the computer. 🙂 xxx

Gertie Greets Gus

Image

Gertie and I went outdoors to take photos of her in her Dolliepatch outfit since the earlier photos were all taken indoors due to the heavy and long-lasting rains. Gertie especially wanted to go outdoors to introduce her new brother Angus or “Gus”. 🙂

First, a few photos of Gertie to enjoy. Notice her pale aqua under slip. 🙂

Gertie holds her precious rag baby gifted to her by Edith her twin sister and Janet Myhill-Dabbs, Edith’s Mom. Do you see the tiny metal tag on Gertie’s dress? ❤

This is the maker’s tag for Dolliepatch. Lovely. 🙂

Gertie. ❤

A closer view of Gertie’s eyes. ❤

Gertie is so happy to introduce her new brother Gus. Gus was lovingly repainted and wonderfully outfitted by Janet Myhill-Dabbs. ❤

Gertie and Gus getting to know one another. 🙂

Now for some photos of just Gus. I love his outfit and especially his wonderful wool duffle coat! 🙂

A closer view of this dear boy, Gus. He is very polite and has a kind heart. ❤

A nice close up of Gus. Gus was a previous redheaded, blue-eyed Trendon boy that came in the teal colored corduroy outfit. Now, Gus has fantastic brown eyes. ❤

A full length photo for you to see. I love his wool felt boots and handsome trousers. ❤

Gus removed his duffle coat to show you his sweater and trousers and boots. He removed his hat too because he said it was getting too hot! 😉

Wonderful boots!

A perfect fit for Gus. 🙂

I took a few photos of Gus without his hat to show-off his nice red hair!

Gus. 🙂

This one of my favorite photos of our new boy, Gus. 🙂

Gus, deep in thought. 😉

Gus is looking for Gertie to rejoin him.

Gertie puts her rag baby in Gus’s hood. 🙂

Brother and sister enjoying the pretty day. 🙂

A few close up photos taken in the glow of mid-afternoon. 🙂

I hope you enjoyed meeting Gus today. 🙂

Plus I hope you enjoyed seeing Gertie with Gus. 🙂

Gertie and Gus are waving goodbye and sending you hugs and happy wishes for the rest of the week to come. 🙂

We thank you for visiting us here at Sasha Shangri-la and will end this post with a couple of computer-generated water colors. 🙂 xxx

Pretty Pearl Poses

A brief post of the lovely Pearl, a 1966 Trendon girl with brown eyes and red hair. 🙂

Pearl is wearing a sweet sundress with matching pants made by Ruthsdolls. Her white leather sandals were made by Jean Jensen. She is holding her soft teddy. 🙂

The under blouse was made by JoAnn Staricha. Pearl is happy to be outdoors in the warm sunshine. The rain finally let up and allowed us to go outdoors. 🙂

A final photo of pretty Pearl. Thank you for visiting and have beautiful day! 🙂 xxx

Whitney is Happy to Model Her New Outfit

Image

Whitney is a happy girl wearing her awesome new oufit made by Sarah Williams of Vintage Sasha. 🙂

Whitney was rerooted by Sarah and then Sarah patiently gave her 150+ braids! I love her hair and I love her new dress! Whitney wanted you to see her fun zebra figure. 🙂

A close up of Whitney. ❤

Whitney is wearing black leather shoes made by JJ. I like the black shoes with this dress and I thought about trying a turquoise pair but the black color seem to work better. 🙂

A final photo of sweet Whitney. I was fortunate to buy one other outfit from Sarah and it is here waiting on a new Sasha arrival from the UK. It won’t be long now! I hope you enjoyed this short post. Thank you for visiting us at Sasha Shangri-La. 🙂 xxx

Gwennie Redressed and Gwennie Greets Gigi

Image

I hope most of you remember Gwennie from previous posts on the Sasha Shangri-La blog. I recently was lucky to find a few pieces of vintage clothing on ebay plus a couple of pieces on Shelly’s Sasha doll UK site. I thought the ebay clothing might fit a studio or course doll and I had dear Gwennie in mind. 🙂

Gwennie came to me wearing this untagged sage green dress and pants that fit her nicely but they were faded and a bit worn. Still, I thought the outfit was appropriate for Gwennie who has her own signs of wear so I kept her in the outfit for years now only adding a green duffle coat a few years ago.

Here she is! The white blouse is from Shelly’s site. The darling plaid skirt is from ebay. It fits her perfectly, even the snap at the waist is just right. 🙂

Gwennie is looking happier I think! 😉

She is probably thinking…”About time Mummy!” 😉

Another full view photo. 🙂

Gwennie a bit closer. ❤

Gwennie’s legs but who is this????

Gwennie would like you to meet her sweet sister Gigi. Gigi was one nickname that I had as a child. ❤

Gwennie and Gigi up close. 🙂

Gwennie gave her Steiff boar to Gigi to hug and feel loved. ❤

Gigi joined the family last year and is only now overcoming her shyness and sensitivities to daylight and be able to say hello to you today. Gwennie has been by her side all of this time and has helped Gigi adjust to life here at Sasha Shangri-La. Prior to joining us, Gigi was stored for many years since the early 1970’s when she was bought in a large grouping of dolls and put away. Now, Gwennie is her sister and best friend! ❤

Both girls are BIII studio dolls with gypsum heads. 🙂

Gigi’s outfit was made by the talented Thu Cuc Faes. Gigi came to me only wearing a shirt and I dressed her in this outfit for Spring and summer. Her leather shoes are vintage and I found them on Shelly’s site. 🙂

Gigi wore the nice plaid flannel dress last Fall and over the winter. It was made by Christine Meatyard. 🙂

Gigi up close. ❤

Gwennie slipped on the blue wool felt jacket that came with her skirt from ebay. What a nice set. 🙂

Both girls look happy together. 🙂

Gwennie and Gigi up close. 🙂

Gwennie and Gigi closer still. ❤

A full view of Miss Gigi. 🙂

Gigi loves her soft toy from her sister. ❤

Gigi up close. Gigi has a smudge by the bridge of her nose to the right side as you look at the photo. She also has a few dings near her ears that are nicely covered by her hair. 🙂

A nice pair there! 🙂

Gwennie’s duffle coat fits perfectly over her blue jacket. That will be nice when winter comes around. 🙂

Dear Gwennie. ❤

Both girls again.

Gwennie and Gigi are sending your hugs and happy wishes for the week to come. We thought we would end this post with a few watercolors of the “G” sisters.

Gwennie. 🙂

Gigi. 🙂

Thank you for visiting us here at Sasha Shangri-La! Many hugs coming your way!!!
