Wellie Wisher Willa Thrift Store Score!

Hi Doll Friends!!

Had to come say a quick hello and show you my most recent thrift store score! 

I've always wanted the Wellie Wisher doll named Willa... I have so many dolls though and three of the Wellie Wishers. I got Ashlyn first, then came Emerson, and recently I got Kendall... So spending $65 for another doll when I have so many just never seemed right. However, recently I went to a thrift store and low and behold what do I see? Willa!! Sitting there in part of her original outfit! For only $6.99! So how could I not! I had to bring her home. Still need to brush out her hair and put a skirt and wellies on her so she'll feel more comfortable but... What a fun find! I also found the three pairs of shoes in photos below her for 99cents each and had to pick them up. Below that are the things I saw and smiled at but didn't buy. Have you had any recent thrift store scores? Tell me about them in the comments! 

Gotta run!

Our Generation Festive Feast Playset; A Review Three Years Later

 

Hi Doll Friends!

It's almost Thanksgiving!

How does your family celebrate? Tell me in the comments? What is your favorite tradition or food? I love Green Bean Casserole myself... And dressing!! Not stuffing, dressing! I moved to Alabama in 2020 and discovered the difference. I never liked stuffing but dressing..? I could eat an entire 13x9 inch pan of it all by itself. Haha. 

Speaking of Thanksgiving... It's been over three years since I originally bought a really cute set from Our Generation called "Festive Feast"... Or actually I apparently bought two of them. I unboxed them at the time and put them aside to take photos of and write a post about them. Then... My life sort of fell apart and I ended up moving across the country... Well since I've been slowly putting my Doll Room together again I want to show you some of the fun stuff I've found in the unpacking. 

This set is so cute!! 

I guess I must've really thought so since I bought two of them for some reason. Hahaha.

I seem to remember I wanted a whole 'set' of the dishes, enough for a four place settings. 

When I unpacked the sets I kept the little cardboard cutout photo from the box... Then put them in this little plastic storage box and didn't open it again for over three years. 

Life is so funny sometimes, isn't it. 

Here it is, packed in it's little box. 

And here are Gasper and Robyn are posing with it all set up on a table in the Doll House. They are both wearing dresses made by the talented Goofy that I got years ago as a gift from Frann. 💗The background is, you may have guessed, from Temu. Isn't it pretty?)

So... There is the Festive Feast set. 

Sadly I am not sure it can be found anywhere anymore... 

I looked on eBay and couldn't find it... 

Target didn't have a listing for it when you click the link from the Our Generation link. 

So I hope I'm not being rude showing it to you now... 

"Oh look! Isn't this set neat? Too bad you can't get one!" 

Lame? I hope not. 

But it's too cute not to show it to you. It's a quandry. 

I better go!

Our Generation Mirna; New Doll In The Doll House and a Rice Cooker too!

 

Hi Doll Friends,

I finally caved and had to get a doll with this adorable dimpled face sculpt from Our Generatrion. Our Generation Mirna was the one of them that I finally decided to get. She is so beautiful. As soon as she arrived I couldn't help myself but to get her out and take photos of her. 

Since there was a Buy-One-Get-One half-price sale going on when I bought her I also decided to grab the Our Generation Sushi Supreme set at the same time. It comes with a rice cooker that has a working light and 'beeps' when it's done. How fun is that? I spent my early 20's in Hawaii where all the local people have a rice cooker just like this in their kitchen. So it made me all nostalgic. Had to happen.

Better run!

Tropical Backgrounds From Temu!

Hi Doll Friends,

I am reasonably sure I've purchased every single option that Temu has for backdrops. Hahaha. Or actually the ones I've been buying are marketed as 'wall tapestries' but they work so well as backdrops for dolls and none of them have been more than about $5.00. How could I not? This way my dolls can 'travel' without ever leaving my doll room. Since my time is limited, taking dolls out and about for doll photos it just more difficult so having the 'venues' right here at home is so convenient. Not to mention I don't have to worry about my dolls being blown over by the wind into the dirt and such. I saw some Facebook friends taking a tropical cruise recently so I was inspired to have some of my dolls 'travel to the tropics'! It was fun to do since we are coming into the colder months of the year. I think I like this first backdrop better than the second because it was easier to pose the dolls in front of. The second one has a 'balcony' and it was hard to get the right perspective, especially with a few dolls in the photos.

So, have any of you purchased any backdrops from Temu? If not, I don't think you can go wrong. 

Better run!
