  1. Hi Loren! I absolutely love your blog! Thanks for sharing all this cool stuff! :D
    I have a question if you don’t mind? Where do you keep your dolls in the summer when it’s hot and it can damage dolls? :) Thanks, I really appreciate it. I have some dolls and I don’t know where to store them in this heat.

  2. These pictures are gorgeous! I especially love Caroline’s and Savannah’s. How do you get Savannah’s hair to stay so curly? Do you read Keeper of the Lost Cities? I am obsessed with those books!

    • I personally don’t care for Parker, but that’s just me. I like Savannah and Felicity and Ivy best. But, I think Issy has a sweet face.

  4. When you get dolls for Christmas, how do you decide what they’re birthdays are going to be? I have 2 that I got for Christmas, and they’re birthdays are on Christmas. I might change that, that’s why I was wondering. ANSWER ME NOW!!! Just kidding! 😜

  5. Hi, Loren! I love your blog! I have a question for you; do you worry about balancing the number of blondes, brunettes, redheads, and black-haired dolls in your collection? I have a redhead, a blonde, and a black-haired doll, and I’d like to get another redhead, but I feel like I should get a brunette, ’cause I don’t have one. Do you have any advice?
