Doll of the Day – Flights of Fancy Ellowyne Victoria

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 get her for me! We renamed her Victoria and she is probably one of my absolute most cherished dolls in my collection (notice I did not say Natalie’s collection – the Ellowyne’s are mine ;-) )

Victoria arrived in her workshop this morning to find her bird cage was open and her pet bird had flown away!

We found this cute bird cage at Michael’s yesterday for a dollar or so and an assortment of little glass bottles with cork tops in the scrapbooking section. Now, we just need to find Victoria’s bird! I may also repaint the bird cage – while I love red, it is not working with Victoria’s steampunk look in that shade.

Victoria is a rather serious girl. She is kind and thoughtful, but is happiest when she is tinkering away in the workshop creating something new. Her bird is her best friend… now we just have to find it!

Apart from the amazing colors in her outfit, I just love all the tiny details from the metallic gears to her gold wings to the drape of her sash at her waist. Victoria is just so perfect in every way.

For more photos of Victoria, see these posts:

And, a note about the printables… I am going to have to come up with a different way to do them for the time being! Maybe all the trading cards and mini posters for the week will get posted in one printable or maybe only some posts will have printables. I will have to see, but for today, enjoy Victoria!!

  13. N says:

  14. Hadden says:

    LOVE her!

  15. Char says:

    All your comments went into moderation because of the smileys! The software does that automatically.

  16. Megan =) says:

    She is so gorgeous! What are inset eyes?

  17. Char says:

    They are glass eyes that are placed in the doll’s head – not painted on.

  18. Sierra says:

    She is pretty. Ellowynes are gorgeous! Char, how do you come up with these descriptions for the dolls? They are so thorough and specific! :)

  19. ZoZo ;) says:

    Oh! Thanks! Sorry, I was really confused! Lol I feel sort of stupid now, hee hee. Thanks a lot! I was afraid my computer was glitching, that would be bad! Thank you!

  20. Megan =) says:

    Thank you!

  21. ZoZo ;) says:

    I thought my comments were somehow mean or something, its a relief it was just the software!

  22. Ava says:

    Oh my gosh I just love her! When I was in fao Schwartz they had two ellowynes check on me and going in circles. I would love to buy one sometime.

  23. Julia says:

    Cute! I gotta get her! I think the red bird cage is nice with her.

  24. Julie says:

    She’s “a-doll-able” however, the price is teelth cringing! I’m not sure if I could ever afford one, unless they had a half off sale or something, because that would be reasonable.

    But, for a doll that is as beautiful and quality it’s worth it for serious collectors!

    I am finding myself in love with “Prudence Am I?” though!

  25. Delaney says:

    she’s drop dead gorgeous!
    CHAR YOU GOT MOLLY!!! I am sooo happy for you!!!!!! I bet you LOVE her. :)

  26. Molly W. says:

    ahh now I understand why my comments almost always go into moderation. I thought the program just randomly picked a bunch of comments to be moderated. And Victoria is sooo pretty! :) (haha now this comment will go into moderation XD) I bet Michael’s would have a little bird for you by the way…. Just a thought. :-)

  27. Molly W. says:

    CHAR GOT MOLLY!!!!!! CHAR GOT MOLLY!!!!!! CHAR GOT MOLLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Haha everyone over here is delighted–she’s a wonderful doll! (spoken from another Molly ;) )

  31. Paige says:

    I love Wilde Imagination! I have had my eyes on Ellowyne Gilded Gloom for a while now. I really need to save up for her or ask for her for Christmas!!!
    CHAR YOU GOT MOLLY?!?!?! Yay I’m so happy for you! Now you need to get Caroline! I definitely recommend her, she is so photogenic and beautiful, and get hair actually is very easy to maintain if you have the patience to take care of it. P.S. Is this Wilde Wednesday? I forgot if it is or not…..

  32. Char says:

    Our next giveaway will start this weekend.

  33. Cassie says:

  35. Venus says:

    Oooooh….
    So the moderator knights do not like smileys, I see.
    Ah, now I know what not to add as much to my comments, lol. :P

  36. Julie says:

    WHICH DOLL SHOULD I GET?

    I’m going to save allowence and I’m not sure if I should get Maru or Jamie (from Maru and Friends)

    JAMIE: http://www.maruandfriends.com/shop/jamie.html

    MARU: http://www.maruandfriends.com/shop/maru.html

  37. sabrina says:

    Julie,I would say Maru!

  38. Venus says:

    @sabrina Me three!

  39. StoryTeller says:

    Julie– If you’d like an Ellowyne, watch the “End of Edition Specials” page. When they’re trying to clear out a particular doll to make room for new ones, some of the dressed dolls can sometimes be on sale for about $80. It’s still a chunk, and it has to be a doll that’s hasn’t been selling very fast, but it does make them a little more affordable. : )

  40. StoryTeller says:

    …And my vote is for Maru, though they’re both adorable. : )

  41. Julie says:

    Storyteller- Thanks! That makes them so much more affordable!

  42. Julie says:

    So everyone likes Maru? Then I’ll be getting Maru first! :-)
    I’ll ask for Jamie for a birthday or something!

    Once I get her I’ll send in photos!!!

  43. Joe says:

    She is beautiful i cant blame you for keeping the Elloween dolls for your self the have so much detail and look fantsatic not to mention they cost a fortune

  44. Char says:

    Joe, I have been pretty smart about shopping for my Ellowyne’s and have gotten most of them as End of Edition specials or when they did a special promotion. Victoria is the only one I paid full price for.

  45. Bethany says:

    How gorgeous!!!

  46. juliet_the_great says:

    very…………………….fancy…..and…………………………………………………………………………………..EXPENSIVE!!!! :(

  47. Victoria says:

    Victoria is so pretty!

  48. Bri says:

    Wow!! She is beautiful. I am inspired and going to make a sim on the Sims 3 just like her!
