Sheep and cute clothes, a match made in dollyworld.

We are not talking about real sheep but about the cute little sheeplike dolls created by QLYwork. They really give you a retro feel, with their painted eyes and cute features.

These girls are ready to get dressed. 😀

I spoiled myself a bit when I found out that QLY made new outfits for 2025. They had previously been wearing the travel outfits and while these were extremly posh clothing the headdress would not stay on because the girls have smooth scalps lol. Besides they were both fully black and white outfits and my girls deserve a bit of colour.

I made my pick of the three below. 🙂

Three outfits still in their original packaging. On the left a red checkered dress, with a white frilly apron decorated with two apples, a frilly collar and a frilly headdres with an apple. 

In the middle is a red riding hood outfit, with red trimmings, a red caplet and a red headscarf with images of apples printed on them.

On the right is a white sailor outfit with blue thread trimmings, a blue collar with a white bow and white pillbox hat.
Apple Candy Dress set, Little Red Riding Hood of Apple and a Sailor outfit.

Getting them dressed was way easier than with the travel outfits. Elastic headbands versus ribbons to tie them down, my preference goes to the elastic.

Once again amazed by the quality of these outfits. I can’t do it for such a small scale. These sheep are only 11,5 cm in height.

The White and black sheep is dressed up in the sailor outfit while the pink sheep is wearing the red candy apple outfit.
Aren’t they cute?

Look at the wee stem on the apple headband!

But I bought two more items, a print for my wall and a bear pin cushion. The pin cushion is my all time favourite now and I know some people will be very jealous of such a cute item on my sewing desk.

A lovely round taupe coloured box with a drawing of a sleeping bear wrapped in a duvet with a red apple print dreaming about peeling an apple.
Well protected in transport with cute bear apple art on the box.

This pin cushion is the bomb!

Just perfect for my dressmaker’s pins.

She is holding a blue watering can and is watering some pretty purple hydrangea while a little white dog with a pink bow is look at her activities. 

She is running a flowershop with many pretty flowers like sun flowers, roses, tulips and calla lilies.
Now to find a perfect frame for this one. Maybe a coloured one would be nice?

I love it when the sellers add an extra gift with your purchase, I got the 2025 New Year gift containing some stickers and a 2025 calendar.

Two sticker sheets were gifted with multiple drawings and photos of the QLYworks sheep family. Together with a 2025 Year of the Snake calendar
A thank you note in several languages. The message is in Chinese, Japanese, English and Korean if I am not mistaken. A small gift for you. Best wishes.

I feared that some items were lost when I received the prcel from the postal service. It had two gaping holes and felt so light. But because it was all wrapped in bubble wrap together and the print was on the bottom nothing was lost thankfully.

I used to work for the postal services and I had parcel tape in my truck to fix holes in parcels. They must have changed the policy since I left as this parcel was an absolute mess.

All and all, I always love to shop with QLYworks and hope to see more outfits and maybe another sheep girl in the future.

First order via the Doorzo app

I saw an add for the Doorzo app via Instagram and while I had ordered in the past via proxy services, this one looked easy to use. And easy to use it was and dangerous for my wallet. 😀

Doorzo is a proxy service that helps you shop on sites like Mercari, Rakuma, Surugaya and my newly discovered Minne.com (Japanese handmade goods). You browse via keywords and see if you can find your most wanted items. I did cry a little seeing the sold out Baby, The Stars Shine Bright collab outfits for Volks dolls going twice and triple the price. *shakes angry fist at scalpers*
After payment the goods will be shipped after the sellers confirmed that you won the purchase and ship it to a central warehouse, I found out it is in Saitama prefecture. After your items arrive, for a small fee you can have them checked and repacked for international shipment. It all went pretty fast and the longest time I had to wait was for the Dutch customs to release the package after I paid the ransom. Everything done by Doorzo was done swiftly and with great care.

I bought 2 kimono’s form I Doll House and when they arrived I was pleasantly surprised. The fabric quality has the most beautiful and deep colours. The gold looks like the work of a skillful painter.

Both kimono’s are Blythe, Licca-chan and obitsu 22 sized.

Up close inspection you see that the kimono’s have been hemmed with care by their creator.

And I feel the price was too low for them. The red/blue kimono costed me ¥ 2.500 (€ 15,36). It came with an obi, zori sandals and a hair ornament. I think this one is the prettiest of the two, the red, blue and gold go so well together.

It suits Licca-chan so well. <3

The other kimono is fitted on my Blythe, Rhiann. She has auburn hair and this set really fits the autumn mood. Too bad it’s winter, all the leaves are gone and a photoshoot at the park will look pretty bleak. The details on the obi are really pretty and I love the handstitched flower on it. This set costed me ¥ 2.300 (€14,13).

Poor lass is still shoeless. 🙁

The overall experience of using Doorzo and the items that I have received has been fantastic. I have listed this seller in my favourites and I will undoubtedly buy more form her in the future. I have already made a few purchases on Doorzo during the weekend and whoosh €75 gone. 😀

Another package with a set of clothing arrived via PostNL later on the day but it’s 1 AM now, I need to work tomorrow so I should leave the photo editing and posting of the blog for tomorrow or Friday. For now I will wait for my other Doorzo packages, two of them coming my way soon.

I got a hairpin as a gift. 😀
