Vikka has scooted all the girls to the Community Center, now they are dressed up and ready. She is drawn to the lace and ribbons, and takes a few minutes to choose a little red to accessorize her favorite black and whites... Better hurry, Vikka! You know you are always needed for the set changes, and lining up the girls! It's so peaceful, no wonder she lingers...,,

Let's add some fun! The Little Darlings arrived at the Dolltown Library two by two, and three by three to festive-up. Jiyoon was waiting there with ribbons and...a bowl of lace from Aunty Maryann! Jiyoon herself chose the red lace and fashioned it around her waist like a little peplum. Then she added a Christmas candy waist band to finish off her outfit. Jiyoon didn't feel she needed to add anything more, not even a hair ribbon. And Birdy, and Chantal thought just a hair ribbon will do. Scout,...

Rosa has been chosen to be our Christmas Little Darling this year... How could she not? With red cheeks and green eyes, she is the color of Christmas! And she has a December birthday! Rosa is very excited and a little nervous. This is her first Christmas in Dolltown and the spotlight is on her! Rosa will wield the magic in our Decorate the Tree story coming up. Lula comes to calm her and tell her that being the star of a story is fun! Zoey and Pearl are going to be the emcees, so are here to...

While the Dolltowners are enjoying some Christmas time together in the Community Centre, the Little Darlings are arriving at the Dolltown Library. Jiyoon is already here. She is bringing out Christmas decorations, and Little Darling ribbons and bows. The little girls are getting ready to decorate the Community Centre as soon as some more of the children are done. They are using the Dolltown Library until it's ready. Shhh. Quiet, girls!

Dolltown dolls arrived in the Community Center, where Christmas was set up before the sets changed and the tree and ornaments were borrowed for the Pop Up diorama downtown... Guard One came down for some photos, between security shifts, and put the word out to the boys. He knew they'd love some of the ornaments and toys... Chris and Douglas, brothers here in Dolltown, are joined by all our Chris Miller and Robin Woods boys. They are remarkably cooperative together, and good buddies. I wonder if...

As we were festiving up the Community Room diorama, several of the dolls, ready for Christmas photos, came by. Even a few came by who have now gone down to the Christmas Pop Up Shop diorama! Christmas Doll has gone, and so have Shasta, and Fancy Nancy. I have a feeling the last two are going to want to sneak back here for the December Dolltown action. But no one will miss them down there. It's like a Find Waldo book in that doll stuffed diorama! But here we have some beauties we don't see very...

It's the Little Darlings! All dressed up for Christmas! We do stories here in Dolltown...so we do a lot of doll photos, capturing each doll in action and repose. I love looking at doll photos. I love looking at my dolls in photos. And none more than the dozen Little Darlings that reside in Dolltown... Our Dianna Effner Little Darlings have been chosen because we adore them, and I looked for as much variety as possible, and each has her own story for being here. Dolltown has LD's from four...

Our Christmas diorama! But we won't have it here in Dolltown! We are setting up at a Country Christmas here in our little ranch town. At the Country Music Hall of Fame a bunch of our lucky Dolltowners get to be on display! For a whole month! There was a scramble when it was time to choose who gets be in it. Some dollies love the idea! Others stopped to think what it will mean and hid behind props and ran away when I opened my bag to pop them in... A whole month of sitting and standing quietly,...
