Paradise Kids 18" Doll Goodwill Find and Makeover!

Doll Friends,

Ok found just another moment here...

I found this pretty little lady last week at Goodwill for $3.99!

I had to bring her home and clean her up because...

She'd been through a rough time. 

I actually used to have a Paradise Kids doll but I'd sent her to Frann a while ago for her collection. So it's neat another one found her way to the Doll House... 

She seemed in pretty good shape other than her hair... 

So I just cut it it off and started trying on wigs...

Here is the first wig I tried on her... It wasn't horrible. 

But I loved this one the minute I put it on her... Just cute!

I love the soft waves and cute shorter style. 

So I think this is the one I'll keep on her. I'm not postive... The wig was actually really really tight. Paradise Kids obviously have a bit larger head size than other 18inch dolls. So right at her temples you can see the 'plug holes' from her prior hair. But her hair will be worn down in this style so I don't know if it will matter. We shall see...

Better run!

Paradise Kids 18inch Doll Horse At Friends House

Hi Doll Friends!!

You know you've truly embraced your doll collecting self when you unabashedly and unashamedly gush with excitement upon seeing a doll item at a grown, non-doll collecting, friends house! Then you double-down and ask to take a few photos... "You know, for my blog!" Haha. Case in point?

This cute little fella right here. 

He is a Paradise Kids 18inch Doll horse... I just had to look him over and photograph him for you to see too!

He is a lot like the Our Generation horses in that he has "fur" or "hair" (which word to use? I am not an equestrian at all!) over his plastic body... 

I liked the feature that you can bend his little ears... Horses, from what I recall, show a lot of their emotions via the cocking of their ears, so that's a clever feature.

See, here is him with ear bent forward. Isn't he lovely? Do you have a horse for your doll? I actually have two... And two ponies as well. I've been meaning to get them all out and show them to y'all all Summer with some nice outdoor photos... Seeing this little guy reminded me I need to do that! So I'll get a few of the dolls dressed in some horse gear and try and get that done this week sometime! 

Better run for now! 

Till next time!

Hi Doll Friends!

I couldn't help it! She was only $7.51 (plus $7 shipping) on eBay and I've wanted to check out a Paradise Kid doll for a long time!

Here she is strait out of box!

I am amazed she didn't get injured during  shipping because this is exactly how she was packed. Crazy!

Back with a proper review soon. Just had to show her off because she came in mail today!

Till next time!
