A Doll a Day in April: Day 30 - Henry

For most Dear Henry needs no introduction.  He of course has his own blog 'Holidays with Henry' 

He hasn't been on many holidays lately - actually he hasn't been on any since his last in 2019!

But he is still a very special boy, and hence is finishing this Doll a Day in April series, which has featured on my Rose Cottage Friends blog.

 

A Doll a Day in April: Day 29 - Maddison

 

My beautiful Shelly B repaint, Maddison, is my doll today.  For the first time in ages she has changed out of her 'Rose Hip Chicks' costume to wear this pretty dress I made a number of years ago.  She looks so good in it.

So one more day to go!

A Doll A Day in April: Day 25 - Baby Natalie

 

Today's gorgeous Sasha baby is my doll of the day, and I found her in 2019 in a Charity Shop!  What a treat that was.  She is wearing a little one piece romper suit with matching booties I made. 

 

A Doll a Day in April: Day 23 - Ginger George & Happy St George's Day

 

Ginger George tends to spend his time as a sailor nowadays...but perhaps it is time for a change, we will see! 

In the meantime he wishes you a Happy St George's Day!

A Doll a Day in April: Day 16 - Molly

 

Today's doll is my darling Molly.  She was one of my first Sasha dolls, and a firm favourite of mine.

She had greening eyes and eyebrows which I darkened back to her proper colour.

She was part of the Rose Hip Chicks girl band, but found she suffered from stage fright and would get sick so they had to get someone else.

She has been changed into a pretty yellow dress

Doesn't she look absolutely delightful?

Such a little sweetheart.

Why day 16?  Well the other dolls are featured on Rose Cottage Friends blog.

 

Everlee Rose Morgan

 Well I haven't posted anything on this blog for such a long time, but I am going to try and be a bit more active on it...now where have we heard that before?  Anyway, I am doing 'A Doll A Day for April' which is on my Rose Cottage Friends Blog but today is a Sasha, so I am cross posting to here as well, and I will do so whenever I have a Sasha doll to post.  Hopefully I will also have some story blogs at some stage too.

Today's doll for today is Everlee Rose Morgan, my 1970s Sasha.

She is one of my favourite Sasha dolls...but shhh don't tell the rest.

The garden is looking pretty

So is Everlee Rose.

She has such a lovely face.

I don't know who made her outfit as it was given to me.

But she looks good in it.

 

Happy St George's Day

Revisiting a post from 2012!  However the sentiment is just the same!

Henry threw himself into the whole St George's Day celebration today...donning himself in a pair of red and white shorts...although he grumbled about not having a plain red pair...and arming himself with a sword, posters and my ornamental dragon teapot.

What are you doing Henry?

I'm fighting the dragon Mum

I'm not sure a little dragon looks that convincing Henry!

But I look good with my sword don't I?

Yes indeed you do Henry, although I think you could probably do with some armour to go with that!

I made a shield Mum, but forgot to use it!

Oh well at least you will be prepared if you ever come across a big dragon.

Yikes! Henry exclaims as Mum wanders off and a HUGE dragon breathing fire swoops down...

I wish I hadn't forgot to wear my shield now, and I WISH Mum would hurry and make my suit of armour!

Fortunately Henry survives his encounter with the dragon to fight and play another day!

Happy St George's Day everyone!

 

Henry wishes everyone a Happy St George's Day and hopes no dragons need to be slayed today!

Happy St George's Day everyone!
