so i have decided it's going to be pullip week, around here anyway. to start off, i'll continue with my profile series-of-sorts (which i started in may 2010.. oops) with my rovam, graham! ..who i have apparently not photographed as much as i thought. poor graham. i first found out about pullips right around the time that rovam was announced, and i knew she was the one. (erm, one of several apparently.. paja would have been my second choice. sadly, that did not happen and i still have yet to find a paja of my own. sigh!) lucy, my chicca came first as i found a good price on the "pre-loved" market. but, i am lucky enough to have a fantastic boyfriend who knew i wanted a rovam and surprised me with her for christmas! graham has always seemed to be quite the tomboy to me. she wears a lot of brown and black & white stripes, but is willing to humor me with some girly-ish outfits for photos from time to time. anyway, rovam is awesome and i'm glad i got hold...

i first got into pullips sometime around when paja was released (sigh..), and my first was lucy. she's a chicca that i adopted from someone on ebay; her name came with her. of course the most obvious thing to do was start knitting for her. (and get her some friends, of course..) to me, she's sort of shy and child-like.. and loves bright colors, naturally. she has a cousin named kandajha, who you may have seen around here previously. lucy has been with me almost five years now, i believe! she's done pretty well, aside from one temporary loss of her left hand. a few days ago i noticed her first signs of aging: awful yellow streaks. ): my mr. clean eraser has been no help. crap. looks like this is going to require more intensive treatment. from what i've heard, blythe people use whitening toothpaste for this sort of thing. a success story to follow, i hope!
