Happy 12th Birthday, Super Dollfie! ~ Part 2

Monday, February 28th, 2011

Hi, everyone!

12 years ago today, the first SDs came into the world. A lot of things have changed since then, and many SDs have been welcomed into so many new homes — please join us in wishing Super Dollfie a happy 12th birthday, with our sincerest wishes for many, many more!

I hope you enjoyed seeing the photos we posted yesterday of some of the many beautiful SDs that came to Tenshi-no-Sumika in L.A. to participate in the commemorative group photo! Yesterday’s photos were of Group A — today we will be showing you Group B!

Volks USA Group B!  Once more, with feeling: happy 12th birthday, Super Dollfie!

Happy 12th Birthday, Super Dollfie! ~ Part 1

Sunday, February 27th, 2011

Hi, everyone!

Did you know that tomorrow, February 28, 2011, is the 12th birthday of Super Dollfie? A little over a week ago, we sent out the call for Super Dollfie owners to bring their SDs (and DDs!) here to Tenshi-no-Sumika in L.A. today for a group photo to commemorate the occasion — and there were many people who answered!

So many dolls showed up that the photo space was unable to accommodate them all at once, and we actually had to take two photos (we’ll call them Group A and Group B) — thank you so much to everyone who came and brought their SDs!

Volks USA Group A!  All together now -- happy 12th birthday, Super Dollfie!

Don't be fooled! Please come on Sunday, the 27th!

Hello everyone!

Do you remember this blog post?

Well, it’s almost time!

Please help us by bringing all of your Volks Super Dollfies here to Tenshi-no-Sumika in LA!! We want to celebrate the 12th Birthday of SD by showing the world just how many SD fans there are here in Southern California!

We will begin taking the photo at 2PM, so don’t be late! Best to be a little bit early if you can!

We had so many people come to support us last year and we would be very happy to see you all here again!

Bring your DD girls to join in the fun too, okay?

Although we know that our customers treasure all of their dolls, we respectfully request that only Volks dolls be brought to visit Tenshi~no~Sumika LA and to participate in the group photo.

Notions ~ Metal Buckles!

Friday, February 25th, 2011

Hello there!

Are you looking forward to the notions blog today? Unfortunately today’s notions showcase will be the last one for a while as we need to wait for stock to become available in Japan.

Please enjoy this showcase anyway!

Today I am showing off some of the larger metal buckles which we offer.

These are oval shaped and have a bridle in the middle like our smaller buckles, but no tooth as with our other large buckles.

They come in 3 colors currently and include 2 in each pack. Silver, Gold and Antique Gold are available.

Here is a close-up of the three colors. From the top, Silver, Gold and Antique Gold.

Here’s an unusual sight! This buckle is actually larger than our penny!

That buckle is maybe a little bit big for you, little one. Why not give it to someone bigger?

What do you think? Did these photos inspire you? If you make an outfit for any Volks dolls with any of these notions please send us photos and we will be happy to display them here!
