A Mattel Ken or Ryan doll stands in a whitewashed room wearing a tux. To his right is a white pillar with climbing vines curling their way around it. To his left is the bust of a famous composer, and above that, a window with a purple painted frame. The Ken dolls wedding attire consists of a white cotton shirt with collar and tie, a black felt jacket, and a pair of black cotton trousers. He wears black plastic dress shoes as well.

Here we see a close-up of a Mattel Barbie's face. She's wearing a pillbox hat, made of felt, which was sewn using the Simplicity 7601 doll clothes pattern. This lovely Barbie has pale pink lipstick, what might be considered an olive complexion or perhaps a Mediterranean complexion, light brown eyes, and blond, curly hair. The pillbox hat rests gently over her curls, and the felt the hat is made from is a pale purple, almost lilac color. The hat is tipped slightly over her right eye. The coat she wears is barely seen in the image, but it too, is made of the lilac felt. The Chelly Wood dot com logo appears in the lower left corner.

Within a purple cotton fabric frame that has teeny-tiny little polka dots of white, we see a blue-framed photo of an 11 inch Strawberry Shortcake doll with articulated arms that bend at the shoulder and the elbow. She has long, red, flowing hair and big green eyes. Her long legs have painted-on green and white stockings and painted-on red shoes. She wears a dress that has short sleeves (like a T-shirt) and the bodice part of the dress is made of green felt while the skirt part is make of pink cotton dotted with little strawberries. The words "free pattern" are angled inside the purple cotton fabric main frame, and the ChellyWood.com logo appears in the lower left corner of the image.

The image shows a 15 inch doll's feet modeling a pair of Victorian style boots made of felt. The boots have white tops that look like Edwardian spats, but the lower part of the boot is navy blue. There are teeny-tiny black buttons along the curved edge of the boot's "upper" area.

Here we see a La Dee Dah doll standing on a dock or sidewalk overlooking the Seine River in Paris. Behind her is the Eiffel Tower and several boats are docked along a tree-lined warf on the other side of the river. The doll wears a purple felt dress with no sleeves and an eyelet trim. She has her arms splayed out at her sides as if she's going to spin in a circle. The doll's pretty purple hair matches her purple felt dress!
