A Tisket a Tasket, Four Creepy Dolls in a Basket

From left to right:  Pandora Sue, Abby Gail 
(Winne Jane passed out drunk) and Ida Claire.

These lovely little Darlins are former débutantes from Charlotte, North Carolina. 


Pandora Sue was the Bell of the Ball and landed herself the town's most eligible bachelor, Antwan Allman.  Years later, he came out of the closet and ran off with a boy named Ken. 


Abby Gail married her incredibly wealthy cousin, Harold James Convington III and had adorable one-eyed twin boys.  But alas, motherhood  proved to be too much for Abby Gail, so she sold her children to the circus and ran off with Pandora Sue to start a new life with their childhood friends Ida Claire and Winne Jane.  


Winnie Jane was never really around, often drowning her sorrows in absinthe and lace.  Despite numerous interventions, Winnie’s conditions worsened and she now spends her days drinking, buying lace petticoats on eBay and watching reruns of Miami Vice.  


Ida Claire was never married.  She became a millionaire after inventing an extremely popular alternative to non-fat cheese.  She hoards straw hats and stacks them floor to ceiling in every room her mansion. Because of this strange hoarding obsession, the four ladies are forced to live in a basket. Ida Claire is obsessed with retaining her youth and spends a large portion of her riches on plastic surgery for herself and her best friends.  Now, all four ladies are addicted to plastic surgery  (their eyes don’t even close anymore).

Tina. Boy Doll No More.




Tina grew up as a male doll in female dominated doll world. Formally known as Chuck, he grew up playing with trucks and matchbox cars. Little Chuck spent his days staring out the window of his room watching the girl dolls have tea parties and dress-up with their pretty hats and dresses. Chuck knew deep in his plastic heart he was meant to be one of the girls. 

Determined to be a girl, Chuck got a job driving delivery trucks for a major toy manufacturer and saved every cent. Three years ago Chuck made his dream come true when he hired a retired toymaker to perform a sex change operation and Tina was born. 

Tina now lives in Pasadena with her 4 cats and spends her days making the most delicious macaroons west of the Mississippi and planning tea parties for the local girls.
