New Doll Room! Just Getting Started But SO Excited!

 


Hi Doll Friends,

I haven't really mentioned much about it here because... 
Reasons...
But I've moved a couple of times in the last few years. 
In the place I moved into first, I barely had any room at all to store my dolls much less have any room to set up scenes for doll photos. 

However, I've moved again this year. It's taken a few months but we have finally cleared out a room for me to make a doll space again! I am so excited it feels like Christmas! I am slowly bringing home and unpacking my dolls from where they've been stored and every single doll I take out feels like a gift. I mean, I knew I had them all but pulling them out, holding them again and being able to sort their hair, it's so much fun! I've been trying to maximize the space I've got and so I purchased this shelving unit: 


Sort of as a trial to see if it was going to work out how I hoped it would. It worked like a charm!! I plan to buy a few more units over the next few months as my budget allows. The photo above is with the shelving unit and photo below is without it. 


Doesn't the top photo look so much better! 

So I am planning on doing the exact same set up on the other half of the room (below) Don't mind the gray zippered bags that my dollies have called home for ever too long laying empty in the corner. 


I think I'm going to be able to fit a whole lot of my doll stuff in the room! Especially when I factor in the closet! 


Here is the closet as it looks right now... You can see I have some of my card making supplies in there too (see blue arrow). See the two blue lines I drew between the two levels of hanging clothes? I plan to get two more rods to hang in there so I can hang up a lot more doll clothes. 


In the cabinet in there I've housed all my doll food and some other doll accessories and I am so excited to have them accessable! Seriously, I can barely sleep lately with organizing it all in my mind. Haha. So, I'll post an update when I get it more put together but I had to come show ya'll and share my excitement!! 


Hope this finds you having a wonderful day!

Cute Doll Shoe Score From Super Organized Thrift Store


Hi Doll Friends,

Just a super quick post to show you the cute shoe score I got from probably the most organized thrift store ever... There were other doll items too (see below) but I was good and only let myself buy the shoe three pack (see above). I love the roller skates and boots so much! Have you found anything at the thrift lately? Let me know in the comments below!

Palm Dolls Happy Kids Doll Score and Doll Sightings Lately At The Thrift Stores


Hi Doll Friends,

Just a quick post to tell you about a fabulous score I found recently at a thrift store! I found these three Palm Doll Happy Kids dolls at the thrift store that I'd never seen before and so I had to add them to my collection. I'm so happy I found them. They'd written the price ($1.00 each!!) on their faces and I was a bit worried it wouldn't come off but it did... See photos below. I'm not buying a new dolls as much as I once did but I couldn't pass these up. They still had their original tags even! 















I found this American Girl Doll at a thrift store and was so so so tempted to buy her but I decided I would just leave her there for some other person to find. She was so pretty!





All of the other items in these photos are just dolls and doll accessories I saw when I went by thrift stores... The American Girl Doll snack carts were very tempting but... I left them at the store. I just don't have the room to buy large doll items really. So... Always check your local thrift stores for dolls and doll items! You never know what you might find!
