    OOAK by Dale Zentner.

Oh my! Patkan, what a beautiful doll. Pretty Please tell who she is and all the details about her.

[patkan]

Hi Dejavu.  She doesn't have a name---just "girl with bear".  A lot of OOAK artists don't name their dolls---they let the new owner do it.  She's made from cernit, and about 14-1/2" if standing (her legs are jointed), but she's really made to be sitting.  I believe Dale Zentner is from Canada. 

And since it's a new day, this is "Sherlock" from the Zapf "Saurkraut Kids" series.  These came out after the success of the Cabbage Patch Kids.  Zanini and Zambelli (Italy) also made a cute series called the "Pasta Kids".

Whatta cute little guy, Pat!!! Love those chubby cheeks!

This is an 11" Petite Sally (composition)

She was a Christmas gift from my talented dolly doctor..

Thanks for the info Patkan. Your Sherlock is adorable too. Your wonderful doll collection sure runs the gamut (I love variety).

Choca what a terrific Xmas Gift!!! I Love the Petite Sally doll and would "kill" for one. I never saw the 11" one like yours, she's precious. Her face is wonderful whether original or not.

In case anybody is keeping track, since this morning when I posted my doll, my photo posting menu options have vanished again.  :_|

Anyway... thanks for liking Sally.   She's one of my faves; she has a trunk and lots of lovely vintage clothes too.

:-x

How sad!

Our dolly-picture-posting thread has been reduced to having to talk about pictures rather than posting them.

:_|

Well, I'm  unstoppable. So there. *snort*   ]:);-)

OK Ms Choca (smarty pants), please tell me how did you do that ???  I'm using Internet Explorer, not firefox. :^O

Drag n drop.

However.

My experiments with IE have shown that (for me) drag and drop from Photobucket isn't workable;  I can only get that method to work with Google Chrome and Firefox.

Maybe somebody else has a simpler way to do it but I open Ebay in Firefox and Photobucket in Google Chrome and slide my pictures from one browser to the other.

I saw the geekier solution that was posted, but this Rube Goldberg setup works for me without raising my blood pressure.

Carry on with courage...we shall survive this too.  😄

[dejavudolly]

Thank you Choca! You really are a smarty pants (in the good sense). 😄

Haven't used M$ IE since 2004...

Firefox 0.9 is still more stable than Internet Explorer 9.0 ...

just ask...

Thank you again Sadiesshop for your help.

I'm not very computer saavy. I upgraded to IE9 from a microsoft prompt on my computer and for the most part I'm pleased with it. I also use Microsoft Security Essentials as my virus etc. program. I always use my computer's suggestions for all upgrades and downloads.

Computer Technology is not a primary interest of mine so I tend not to experiment.
