So many cute dolls end up at the thrift store

2016 Holiday Barbie-Claudette Gordan face sculpt Fashionista #128 Fashionista #111 fully dressed, plastic band holding her choker in place. Just a personal observation-kids don't really appreciate the "curvy" Barbie. My granddaughters, one elementary school age and one young teen...both said on separate occasions "why is she chunky" I was dumbfounded. They both seemed really confused and kind of insulted that I would enjoy a chunky doll, which happen to be my favorite body type. The tall is my least favorite. I grew up with Barbie...loved her my whole life. And never once did I think she was a predictor of my future self. Even when "Julia" came out, I never dreamed of being Dianne Carrol or a nurse or a single mom. All three are wonderful for real people, but my dolls had other things to do🤣 She was a beautiful doll who lived with 100 other beautiful dolls and I loved it. We were so innocent back then and could just play and enjoy our imaginations. No

Barbie Fashion Fever 2005/2006 Barbie Fashion Fever 2005/2006 this was a really cute line. Wooden doll furniture put out by TOYS R US around the same time The scale is off. It's probably for 9-10 in dolls, like LORI or LOL  

Dollar Tree crafting #myfroggystufffanpics

Tim Holtz miniature candle holders and cut down celebration candles from the Dollar Tree🌴  This Mulan Disney doll has the animation face, so she looked right at home in this cartoon setting. I was really curious about this "foldout "room from the Dollar Tree. Mostly to see the scale and if any of it could be used for templates in dioramas. But, just as I figured, the scale was off and nothing was going to be useful to me. But my granddaughter will love it since it folds flat, and still is cute.

Fun with Fashionista-body swap

Finally gave her a mtm body😍 but those neck pegs almost killed me😥 just some skin tone comparisons both bodies were a good leg match but her face is made of a more rubbery material, so it is a little darker than her body. but "green tie dye" works. One tip that was shared with me, after the fact, is to remove those side wings on the neck peg, so that the body can be shared more easily. Uggg...next time🤓 Fashionista model#3/Karl face mold...now I have 6...she one of my very favorites 🥰
