Site for Doll Sales: Mister Dollface

mister dollfaceWith the Doll Page Show and Sell gone, where do we go to sell our dolly things?  Well, it's Mister Dollface.  Just like the Doll Page, this website is free to sell your items.  It certainly beats all the fees associated with selling on eBay.  Browse the great items available on Mister Dollface and help it grow!  It seems to gain more and more users everyday, but your support would be great. I have some of my own items on the page (found here) and will probably add quite a bit more in the coming weeks as I thin out my collection.  I've seen sellers posting all kinds of great things, including one of my grail dolls, the Queen V Veronique Integrity doll (Dolly Bird anniversary exclusive).

Casting Call for New Book

The new book, Dolly Bureau (Vol 3):  All About Tiny Dolls [working title], is underway and this year I'm going to try something a little different with the book.  Instead of being strictly a pattern book, this year the book will highlight all kinds of tiny dolls (11.5cm/4.5in or shorter) with some pattern tutorials, crafts, etc.  In this volume, dolls, crafts, clothing, accessories, etc, will also come from other people, not just MegannArt.
