Emily's Eyes

I take any and all opportunities to photograph my very vintage Emily. Hope everyone is having a great weekend...my new modem is hooked up so fingers crossed that I'll have steady internet service for a while! Thanks for dropping by!
I know what a treasure Emily is but I have to tell you in light of all the scary movies that I don't watch but have seen previews for this looks very scary. Glad your Internet is back and it is so good to see you hope you're having a great weekend too.

@grammyn I grown to love her over the years, but, yes, she is definitely "Annabelle" material (is that one of the previews you've been seeing? I like scary, but that one is a bit much!)

A bit creepy Lin but a cool shot.
August 13th, 2017  
@linnypinny LOL! Probably ! I generally don't watch long enough to get those kind of details!
August 13th, 2017  
Oh my! I can imagine her brand new, but I'm sure just as loved as she was then.

What a sweet face. She's beautiful!
August 13th, 2017  
Oh my... haunting!
August 13th, 2017  
beautiful? I'm seeing a horror movie!

@tanithrose I was a bit hesitant to inherit her, but she really needed to stay in the family!

@janeandcharlie I really must find and post the photo of us when I was maybe 3 years old. And even then, she was decades old.

@claycameras Thanks, Carissa. I knew you would love her. I've thought of inquiring about a restoration, but I'm afraid it would be too much work at this stage.

@northy She is a bit on the frightening side, isn't she? Thanks for dropping by to visit!

@francoise LOL - If you think she's scary now, you should have seen her around 50 years ago, when she didn't have eyes! Thank goodness my aunt took care of that!

Creepy face...looks like the intro to a horror movie :)
August 13th, 2017  
I should not have looked at this before bed! but I love it anyway.. creepy but cool!
August 13th, 2017  
Spooky!

How old is she? Her face looks similar to that of my Pedigree doll.

@merrelyn I wish I knew her exact age. I know she belonged to my aunt, who would have been 90 this year. But I think she is much older than that - she was well loved for sure! Thanks for dropping by.

@linnypinny I don't know too much about restoration myself but I've seen dolls in much worse shape repaired so its definitely possible if you decide to go that route later on :)
August 13th, 2017  
poor sad baby!
August 13th, 2017  
@claycameras Thanks, Carissa. I'm going to ask around for who might do that sort of thing.
August 13th, 2017  
Clearly she's been loved to death! I have one from my childhood with a similar face and I still adore her looks.
