News, photos, reviews and more about dolls of all kinds including American Girl, MyTwinn, Barbie, Groovy Girl and many more.
One of the reasons that articulated dolls. like Kidz n Cats, are so much fun to play with and photograph is because you can capture so many different lifelike poses with them. One of our long time readers, Sherie, had fun doing an outdoor photo shoot with her two Kidz n Cats girls – Giovanna [...]
Here’s a fun post from Diana for some Friday Fun! *** So who is behind the shades you ask? Well when this little darling came out at Target (2008), I just loved her looks, but refused to pay the price. She can still be found on eBay for many different prices and a range of [...]
Diana always seems to be able to find the best deals and most unique finds! She has two more beautiful German dolls for us to enjoy today. I am not sure of the exact year this face mold was introduced (2009 ??)but it was used on one of the most sought after dolls from Gotz [...]
Let’s start our week with another doll history lesson from Diana! *** There is another German company that creates very nice dolls, but is seldom mentioned nowadays, since most of its dolls today are baby dolls. This company is Zapf Creations they started in Germany, but now their production is in Hong Kong. They were [...]
Ellowyne Raw Edges was the third Ellowyne to be added to our collection. Since I got her near the time of my trip to Ireland last year, I gave her an Irish name – Aine (pronounce Anya). She also came wearing my second favorite color, purple (if you were paying attention, you learned earlier this [...]
I love learning something new everyday and thanks to our fabulous Doll Diaries community I usually do! Over the weekend Diana found an 18″ doll at the store Tuesday Morning and while she looks an awful like the Madame Alexander Favorite Friends, Dollie & Me, Playwonder (and other variations of the MA face mold), it [...]

One of my favorite Ellowyne dolls I actually bought through FAO.com when she was being offered as an FAO exclusive – she is Woeful Romance – also known as Lillian around here. She has the most beautiful inset (as opposed to painted on) eyes that are a deep teal blue and long straight black hair. [...]
I have a special treat for you today! Wilde Wednesday is actually a video – well, a stopmotion video created by Natalie. I have got incredible admiration for anyone who has the sheer patience it takes to create a stopmotion (agoverseasfan and girloftheyearstudios are AMAZING at it). In order for Natalie to create a 43 [...]
I know I have said it before, but I honestly believe that Ellowyne Wilde dolls are the MOST photogenic dolls EVER. Our doll of the day, Ellowyne Wilde Going in Circles (we call her Blair) is a prime example. She just is gorgeous. She has long brown hair, bangs, light green eyes and a very [...]
I told you Wilde Wednesday would be back! Have you heard? April is National Poetry Month and Wilde Imagination is celebrating with their 5th Annual Poetry Contest. You can win an Ellowyne of your choice if you are the grand prize winner – they are awarding 19 prizes total. Anyhow, go to Ellowyne’s Poetry Contest page [...]
Dear Diary, My name is well it could be Tess, or Sarah or Hannah. I was created by a company named Gotz. They wanted me to be made in America so New York is my hometown. I am blonde with blue eyes but my name has been changed. You see my sisters who are made [...]
Well, hello! Yes, I took advantage of the recent Wilde Imagination sale and added yet another Ellowyne to our collection. Plaid To Meet You is a wigged Ellowyne doll that has removable hair. The wig is held on by two velcro dots and you can swap it out with other Ellowyne wigs. She comes wearing [...]

This is part two of Natalie’s photo story. If you missed part one – go read it first. “Let’s start looking through stuff!” said Blaire. “Oh mirror! Hello gorgeous. Your looking nice today.” Lillian gushed while she looked at herself in the mirror. “I want to try this on! Wow look at this headband! Amelia [...]
Hi girls, Natalie here! Thanks to the snow storm on Wednesday, we have our third day in a row off of school! So while I am enjoying my time off, I have decided to check on the Ellowynes. “Amelia, are you in here?” asked Blaire as she opened the heavy door to Amelia’s room. The [...]
Today’s snow is the perfect backdrop for spotlighting another one of our gorgeous Ellowyne Wilde dolls. Positively Negative is her official name, but she is known as Caitlyn around here. I fell in love with her when she graced the cover of the Wilde Imagination catalog, yet I was patient and waited for her to [...]
When I was first introduced to the Springfield Collection dolls, I was really captivated by Madison. The company had sent me one of each of their dolls to review and once I had done the review, Natalie and I decided to keep Madison and Olivia and donate Abby, Emma and Maria to three little girls [...]
Wilde Imagination’s Flights of Fancy Ellowyne was available only at the Tonner Convention last Spring. When I saw her amazing blue steampunk inspired look, glass eyes, super long eye lashes and that gorgeous hair, I just had to have her! Luckily for me, Charlie from DollsBehavingBadly.com was at the convention and was kind enough to [...]
While the big blizzard that came through the Northeast did not keep us from Toy Fair in New York, it did cause some vendors, reps and even displays from making it to the show on time. Sonja Hartmann’s Kidz ‘n Cats dolls for her booth were delayed in getting to the show and honestly, I [...]
