Thanks to Rob, I now have kickass (almost to the point of scariness) desktop wallpaper in the form of Miss Helen‘s Blythe dolls, Fenella and Mippy.

those blythe dolls scare the crap outta me. they look so *evil* somehow. i can’t explain why such seemingly sweet dolls give me the creeps.

Helen’s are especially creepy, given that one of them is missing a set of the eye chips, so you’re happily clicking away from blue eyes to green to brown and then suddenly there’s an iris-less zombie Blythe looking at you.

I loved the wall paper. Check out elkharttruth.com, GOSHEN TO CELEBRATE KNITTING…and you’re in Austrailia.
Dang it all.

Oiy! Mippy heard that. I’m putting in a new set of eyechips as soon as the paint dries!
I sort of wish their faces weren’t so shiney, but you can sand matte them, but I don’t want to ruin them. Oh god, I am such a nerd.
