To all our Doll Diaries friends here on the East Coast, please be super safe over the next few days and let’s hope that “Frankenstorm” or “Horrorcane Sandy” (which ever you prefer to call it) spares all of us!!
Here are the photos that arrived in my inbox this week. Enjoy!!
From Isabella – Amelia and Julie are waiting for the school bus to pick them up.
Sharry’s dolls had a groovy Halloween Carnival – you can watch the video to see all the fun they had.
From Rachel - Here is my doll Samantha wearing the Prima Ballerina outfit I won from the Dream World Collections/Doll Diaries giveaway. She’s very excited and can’t wait to use it.
From Isabella - As you can see, Amelia is thoroughly enjoying her new Pirate Halloween costume I won in the My Pink Planet/Doll Diaries giveaway. She doesn’t want to take it off!
Madelon’s Ellowyne looks stunning in her new Russian inspired outfit.
From Venus – This is an old photo of Kanani after having a slumber party with her doll sisters and cousins. She’s just catching up on her reading before going to bed. She loves graphic novels!
From Deb - I was the blessed winner of a giveaway by The Queen’s Treasures Facebook page. I wanted to share a picture of the beautiful wardrobe I won! I just love it!!
From Darciana – An evening photoshoot with A Girl for All Time Matilda
We love seeing what you make for your dolls, adventures they have, and great finds. If you would like to submit your photo for next week’s Sunday Showcase, here are the basics:

I made a doll sized uneven bars but it fell apart.
Oops.. I posted twice!!
Thanks for the note about the Frankenstorm (or perfect storm, whatever) All of the easy coasts DDiaries fans will try to be safe!! Hopefully I will not lose any electricity so I can still comment on the posts!
Isabella, those jumpers look just like my school uniform!
Sandy has already passed by us. Thankfully we just got a day of the outer bands down here! We did lose power for a few hours though. Stay safe everyone!!!
Thanks for hoping we’re all safe everyone! Our town is supposed to be hit, so that means a lot to me. I hope the same for everyone else!
I hope everyone is safe from the Frankenstorm! Great pics, as always, everyone!

Always great pictures, thanks for sharing.

I live in NC. Bring on the rain!!!
Bailey- me too. It is a wierd Halloween because last year my district in school postponed Halloween until November 3rd. They might have to again this year! These are great photos everyone and congrats to all the giveaway winners.
Char amd everyone – be safe you guys and strong I’m prepared but scared so I’ll do doll hair and think of ideas for videos I’m afraid I’ll lose power to.
Deb, what doll is in ur picture? She looks a lot like one I have, but with curled hair.
I love the wardrobe, it’s just stunning.
Sharry, Great photo story! Enjoyed all your work!
thanks everyone for the nice comments everyone!

Isabella- did you make those little jumpers?
Thanks Linda.
Wow! Sharry, it looks like your dolls had a GREAT day! I really LOVED your video. It was so awesome! Ahhh!
Cute pictures as usual! Where you find the jumpers in the first photo? My daughter has to wear that same jumper as her school uniform. I’ve never seen the dress in a doll size. It would be perfect!!!!
I just sent my bar pictures hope you like them char
Thanks Liv. It was a lot of work, but really fun to make.
Great pictures everyone!
And stay safe during the storm. Yikes!
aw cute!
When will you post the next giveaway?
Sharry: I loved the video! The costumes were beautiful! I loved the witch costume Julie was wearing.
By the way is Woolworth real?
Madelon: What a beautiful outfit!
Lydia – the next giveaway is scheduled for Tuesday.
Ashly, yes, Woolworth was a real store. They finally closed in the early 90s. I have many happy memories of walking around during the Halloween and Christmas seasons. I used to buy discount records there, and my mom and I would eat at the lunch counter in the back of the store. I bought a Bionic Woman costume there when I was in 6th grade. The record that Stephanie is holding is a copy of the record I bought there when I was 11. And now for yiur view pleasure, here’s a vintage Woolworth commercial:

Ashley-thank you very much.
Char – be safe along with everyone else it’s really really really ( like 28493938299238 more really later ) windy here but it’s gonna start down pouring like soon but Besides that hope everyone had a lovely day and my friend left his home
Sharry: Woolworth sounds awesome! Too bad it’s closed.
I would go there if it was still open. 
Oh how I wish I could travel back in time.
Where did you get the cute costumes Sharry?????
Ava- No, I did not, I got one as a birthday present, and then my neighbor offered to make me a second one to match!
Nina- I got it so that it would match my (old) school, st james. Now I am homeschooled, but my dolls still use the uniforms
sorry for the late response!
Claire M. : I made the costumes out of plastic bags, rain ponchos, and cardstock printout of the original 70s Ben Cooper masks.
