The Group Picture Of The Founding Members of W.O.A.A.A.

Hey Gang! 

WOAA!

These are the founding members of W.O.A.A.A.
(pronounced woah ah) After many phone
calls, meetings, discussions, the forming of organizational rules,
and a lot of prayer, the Women of the African Ark Association
was formed. It was formed to “Honor their past through
culture, service, and education”. The Ascension Ceremony is
done wearing white. Pictures of the ceremony are forbidden, but pictures are taken afterward.

OK!
I also wanted to show off these white dresses I purchased from
the dollar store, too! They are supposed to be bridal dress
ornaments. But hey…they were a dollar! They inspired
the story.

I have had to cut my doll budget until after Christmas.
So you will get to see how I manage it. Dolls like to have 

new things! Also, I am working hard to take better pictures 

of my darker dolls. Man... these girls eat the light!
It is even harder with dolls of different complexions.

Better Late Than Never!

With the launch of Mattel's Barbie Basics in 2010, Mattel has realized what doll collectors knew. There is a desire for our best loved head molds to be a Model Muse doll. After the release of Nichelle Urban Hipster (2004) , I noticed dolls on the net that had the Princess of South Africa (PSA 2003) head on a model muse Nichelle body. I didn't know where they got that doll from but I wanted one. Only after reading a few site did I realize that they had made a head swap! I went looking for a PSA and a Nichelle doll to do a swap! The Barbie Basics line features a variety of our favorite head molds on a model muse body but if you are like me, you have already made your own.

I re-dressed my doll in a black and gold dress (this face looks best with golds, Nichelle looks best in silver).

She normally wears her gold couture runway piece.

I have her here for comparison to the Barbie Basics doll( not the same head mold). Tell me what you think! If you have made your own, let me know! It you have a link to your picture, even better!
