I thought it was about time that I introduced you to our pretty vintage style mannequin.I'm sure you have spotted her popping up in the background of various photos but she has never had her glory day in the spotlight here on the blog!

I bought her about a year & a half ago from e-bay. I had been after a pretty mannequin for ages & found this one on e-bay & managed to get her for quite a bargain too ~ I think she cost about £94 with postage which for a pretty mannequin at the time when I was looking was a good price!
♥
She arrived & I took her out of her box here in the dining room & stood her up & she just looked so at home there against the Laura Ashley wallpaper, that there she stayed to live. I know it's a little odd to have a mannequin in the dining room but she looks so pretty & brings a little je ne sais quoi to the room. Plus everyone who comes always admires her!

For some reason I instantly named her Dolly, so she is always refered to as Dolly.
She has purty linen fabric & a wonderfully tiny waist size that I am obsessed that I will have, one of these days ...

Dolly is rather fabulous!!

Dolly is magnificent! She does play nicely with the wallpaper. She needs a pretty cameo though.
ReplyDeleteI would've fallen instantly in love too! Nice to meet Dolly, she looks like a classy lady!
ReplyDeleteHave that old tune in my head now, "Well, hello Dolly, say hello, Dolly"...
