Latest Thrift Score Sights and Scores! A whole Case of Doll Sized LaLaLoopsy Dolls And More!!


Hi Doll Friends,

Just a few thrift store sights and scores to show you. Above are two dolls I left at the store...


This juke box was so cool and perfectly sized. I already have a juke box so I didn't buy it... 


Look! There is an old school land line phone inside! 


Here are a few things I couldn't pass up... 


This tea set was just too gorgeous to leave there! I have too many tea sets likely but... 
How could I not?


Pretty little 'salts' to use as doll bowls...


A cute fabric wreath in perfect size for Doll House.


I. Love. These. Pillows!! 
I got all of them for only $4.99!! In my real life I've always loved 'tapestry' pillows and I have a few in the Doll House as well... But now I have one for each month (the twelve on the left) and others for other times of the year... 
SO much fun!! 



This was a score as well! The whole case was only $2.50!


I've always loved La La Loopsy Dolls because my daughter had some when they were at the height of popularity when she was younger... In this post Lilly Doll even shows off one of the La La Loopsies from back when my daughter was younger. 


Here is what case looked like when I first opened it... 





And all of them out of the case...


I think I am going to keep most of them... So my Lilly Doll can have a 'collection' of course! I'd never collect the larger sized ones but these are so small what can it hurt? Heeheehee


I think I'll get rid of the damaged ones though.... And the case and the 'accessories' save a few...








So not bad finds lately!! Have you found anything terrific at Thrift Stores recently?

Gotta run!

Journey Girls Japan In Shopko Stores!


Hi Doll Friends!

As I mentioned in a recent blog post, Shopko is seemingly going to be the new distributor of Journey Girl Dolls! So the other day when I was in town I stopped by a Shopko in hopes of seeing them in person... And sure enough they had them! 


I felt very disciplined not to buy this outfit pack but Christmas is coming and I need to be spending money on other people not myself... Teehee...


I am sorry for the glare but I was trying to get close up photos of each of the four Journey Girls they had... 





It appears this year is going to have the girls traveling to Japan! How exciting!




Here is a photo from back of box...


And what whole box looks like...


A close up of the art on box...


I am hoping they will release more items like other clothes and more of the group of girls... But in any case it's so lovely to see these beautiful dolls back in stores!

Better run! 
Have a great weekend!!

Thanksgiving 2018 Photos From The Doll House! Part Two



Hi Doll Friends! 

I hope ya'll had a great Thanksgiving weekend! I sure did! It was lowkey and relaxed, just like I prefer! As you may recall, Heather Doll gets a bit more elaborate with her Thanksgiving plans


She put on Thanksgiving dinner for twelve of the dolls in the Doll House (the rest of the Dolls in the Doll House had other plans. Heeheehee... Just kidding... I just only have so many chairs and tables though! 


So here is Heather Doll welcoming Josh and Asbee as they arrive...




Then came Frann and her two friends (my adorable new Paola Reina's from my real friend Frann and they haven't actually been named yet... I alarmedly just realized I never finished a blog post about!??! Oy vey! I am dropping ever so many balls lately?!) So I'll have to get that post finished up... I posted photos of them to the Facebook page but apparently totally neglected to make a post about them. *face palm*


Aren't they adorable! They are wearing sweaters that real Frann made! She does such an amazing job with them! Their cute dresses were made by Goofy! The brown haired doll is even customized with a makeover to her face-paint. So gorgeous! So they are super special to me!! 



Josh and Ashbee checking out the food... 


Such a pretty table!



Of course Vito & Lilly had to come. Lilly thought it would be cute to wear her Hogwarts uniform since she missed the Halloween Party this year as she had other plans. 




The next to arrive was Harper and another doll who hasn't told me her name yet... LOL I can't seem to name them until one just 'fits'. She's so gorgeous!













Last to arrive were Pamela and Layla arrived. They brought the ham and a few side dishes...





By the way this is the Crockpot set from My Life As Doll and I never really reviewed it because, well, I apparently am slipping on dotting all my i's and crossing all my t's lately. But it's SUPER cute and I am so glad I got it. Every 'pot luck' dinner I went to as a kid had several crock pots. They are a necessity. Hahaha.









They waited to say grace before they all went to get their food. I didn't manage to get any photos of them actually eating. Teehee... They just gobbled it all down too quickly. *giggles*






So it was a nice Thanksgiving! I made a couple of YouTube videos of the day if you'd like to check them out... They have many more photos than I put here because it's a bit of a sequenced story video... You can find them here and here



I also thought I'd mention that I recently bought a photography light for my indoor photos and it makes such a huge difference in the light quality. I love it! It breaks down to store and is easy to set up. My only regret is I didn't buy one two years ago. Haha. It was about $40 on eBay!


Gotta run! Where does the time go?
