Profile Information
- The dolls that I collect are:
- Ellowyne Wilde (Wilde Imagination)-mostly Tonner, some Mattel & all things Wonder Woman.
- My favourite doll in my collection is:
- Essential Ellowyne- Too Wigged Out w/ Jim Dandy eyes
- The reason I love dolls is:
- Since childhood I have always been intrigued with dolls of all sizes, Statues, mannequins and drawing the human figure. My passion for collecting/customizing which first began with Mattel's Barbie & friends, now finds new inspiration in Ellowyne Wilde! I recently participated in the "Couture Doll Design Challenge" competition to be featured in Fashion Doll Quarterly Magazine and loved it. The fun I've been having has got me looking for more outlets and community in the doll world. With the recent passing of the famous and talented Joe Tai, I didn't want to waste any time getting to know anything or anybody that had to do with my favorite pastime!
And, besides being the BEST doll site on web due to the many free applications that our gracious host provides! Users can enjoy the camaraderie of doll collecting with a multi-faceted group rather than just one certain doll being in the spotlight. You can be exposed to dolly joys you wouldn't otherwise notice through the eyes of their admirers and maybe even fall in love with a new doll yourself. Just prior to finding Doll Observers, I was unsatisfied with the limiting aspects of other doll sites and competitions and yearned to start my own blog so I could post my dolls, custom outfits, props, and allow others to participate so I could view/share with other doll enthusiasts. Immediately in my search I found this site which was EVERYTHING I had hoped and dreamed of. You can create your own blogs, groups, show off your pictures, connect with friends, all for free in a supportive and loving Facebook-esque setting which is also Facebook/Twitter friendly! And of course, my favorite: "Theme of the Month Group" allows you to fully participate with other collectors in a healthy and friendly competition in which you can show off not only your favorite dolls & collections but their wardrobes, accessories, props and dioramas that go hand in hand with doll collecting! Thank You so much Simon and to everyone who participate to make this site so very rich in media. Dolly Hugs to you all! xoxo, sincerely, Mark Padilla : )

Evelien said… Hey Mark!! Last Friday I FINALLY graduated and I want to do so many dolly things now, that I didn't know where to begin... I decided to start with my Ellowyne, whose name is now Aubrey by the way ^^. I know she has high heeled feet but I just had to put them in these oversized high sneakers, I love them on her. The outfit I made is very simple but it's a start right? ^^
