Fall 2015 News
Long time ... no see.
A lot changed in my life in 2014. I just finished updating my list of dolls here on the blog and it gave me an idea of the timeline of my doll career. School year 2014-2015 was very rough on me. I went through a lot of tough things and lost people. I developed a lot as a person and I have learned from my mistakes. Maryellen's release got me into checking up on the doll world. I logged back into my Instagram (@glamorousdollies | follow me!) and began to miss all of the good times my dolls brought and taught me. My dolls taught me and still do so much about photography and stop motion animation and iMovie and Adobe Photoshop. It tested my creative veins, encouraging me to write out stories and come up with new ideas. It is a learning process that I have to continue to participate in.
After hearing that Basilementos' YouTube actually got her a college scholarship and Adsense is helping to pay for college, it made me see that it actually isn't for nothing. You can truly benefit so much from dolls.
I hope to come back and rebuild my channel ... this time bigger and better.
Long time ... no DOLL!
Looking at my timeline, I realized I hadn't gotten a doll since 2013! Two years! That is the longest I have ever gone! I decided to shop around on eBay and see how things were selling on there. And then I saw a deal I couldn't miss out on ...
I bought McKenna! For some big bucks too. She was $210 plus shipping. But she is oh so worth it. I'll upload some photos soon.
I am so head over heels for her hair! Having no part is so fun and convenient. I hope they make more dolls without a part in the future.
I debated on getting McKenna all throughout 2012 but ultimately chose three other dolls that year which have retired as well now. That is a better way to look at it than that I missed the opportunity. If anyone has anything of her collection they'd like to sell, let me know.
Plans for the Future

Plans for the Future
I have been making plans about the future of Glamourousdollies and my doll collection here recently. I plan on asking for Maryellen come Christmas time. I will also probably rename her because Ellen reminds me of Ellen Degeneres and I just don't want that for a doll name, lol. I will try to find a pretty name that starts with an M to coordinate with her meet sweater.
I am hoping to restart my YouTube career seriously this time around. I would like to shoot for maybe getting a partnership and getting into Adsense. After hearing that Basilmentos' videos got her a scholarship, it is evidence that this isn't for nothing. I learned a lot about technology, stop motion animation, photography, creativity, iMovie, Photoshop, and much more. It is a process that never stops teaching you things and I just can't let my laziness get to me anymore.
Upcoming Videos
I just finished filming a mega tour of our mega doll room. I haven't taken pictures or videos of it since we moved into it so it was very overdue. It will be edited and uploaded soon. I will probably make a fun tab of it here on the blog as well. :)
As always, thanks for reading. Remember me because I'll be around. :)
