As you might know, I am one of the organizers for BlytheCon Vancouver and I’m so excited that it’s happening this summer! Sunday, August 9th, to be precise! As a blogger, I nominated myself for the task of updating and writing up the majority of the posts for the BlytheCon Vancouver website. I do posts on the donations and vendors, and it’s just so much fun to see what goodies are coming in and what will be going into the goodie bags!
It’s been a long time coming with all the progress and planning, and it’s made me really excited to announce contests because there’s some really great prizes (1st place prizes for both contests is a brand new, in box, stock Blythe doll!) – because who doesn’t want to go home from a convention with a new doll?! If you haven’t already gotten an entry in, that’s totally okay because you have until July 15th to enter!

What I’m most excited to be working on is actually my donations for BlytheCon. I’ll be putting together little bags for the goodie bags (much like what I had done for BlytheCon Seattle that I passed around) with my cards and some cute fun stuff – hair ties, miniature Canada flags, doll-sized clothespins, as well as putting together some really awesome (I hope) things for the raffle prizes. No photos of those yet, but when it’s all done, I’ll be sure to share here and over on the BlytheCon Vancouver blog as well.
If you haven’t already gotten your tickets, they are available over at Brown Paper Tickets! For those not in Canada, a $60CDN ticket works out to be just under $50USD – an awesome deal! The currency exchange rate is definitely in the favour of international travellers visiting Canada right now.

You didn’t really think I was serious about quitting Blythe, did you?!
I am not going anywhere from the hobby, neither are my dolls (or their clothes, or the plentiful shoes). The whole crowd is staying, even the ones that don’t get photographed often at all (I am very sorry for that!). It was meant to be a bit of a joke (I know, I know, I have a poor sense of humour). But sometimes a little bit of a shock to the system can be a good thing.

BlytheLife is not going anywhere, I will still be writing and posting as I’ve always been. As I near the end of my academic journey, I will probably spend a little bit less time replying emails but I will still do my best to reply within a few days. I do have a lot of fun things planned for BlytheLife over the next little while, so I am very much still excited to be blogging and taking photos of dolls and being a part of this online community.

Sometimes you just need to know when to throw in the towel.
Blythe has been a very important and very integral part of my life since 2009, and I’ve also grown a lot since 2009 and sometimes it’s just time to stop with the dolls and to move on from dolls and other silliness that came out of the hobby. I will be listing all of my dolls, clothes, and shoes, for sale over the next couple of weeks. In life post-Blythe, I will be focusing on school (which I’m almost done), and I will still be working on BlytheCon Vancouver as I made a commitment and I intend to follow through.
If anyone has any questions about this, or about the future of BlytheLife, you can email me.
