Half a Dozen Dollar Dolls

1. A "skinny Ginnie."
She's kind of a mess, but
I like her.
eBay

2. A LIV Alexis,
nude & bald,
in a fun fur wig
I made last night.
Goodwill store

3. A Fashionista Barbie,
needing a good
face wash.
(I made the hat last night.)
Goodwill store

4. A "My Scene" Barbie,
nude with messy hair.
(I started making the skirt.
The unfinished top
is my work, too)
Goodwill store

5. A hard plastic lady
with a vinyl head.
Her clothes are original,
but ripped.
She required a lot of
cleaning.
I still need to wash her hair.
eBay

6. An all bisque.
She appears to be
 a reproduction
or an artist's
work.
She's had a good wash
and I took her braids
down from their
loops and
re braided them.
eBay

Of course, the eBay dolls
had added shipping.
The Goodwill discount
on the other 3 dolls
did not balance out
that shipping,
but, technically,
they cost a dollar,
or less.

Oh, Look! Look! Look!

Look who was at the flea market, today!
I a corner of the very last table at one end
 of the outdoor market, marked $20, it's
Felicity!  I asked if he could do better and
the dealer knocked off another $5! 

I have a real American Girl Doll! 
Me!

I have at least a dozen patterns
for this sized doll.  I had asked my
neighbor if her daughter would
loan me her AG to try the clothes
on (when I start sewing them)
 so that I can say they fit AG's.
Now I have Felicity,
one of my favorites!

JOY!

She's in good used condition.
