Containers, Boxes, & Bags..Oh My

Image
As I go through my massive collection I've noticed an ongoing theme containers, boxes, & bags. Over the years I've bought varying sizes of containers for storage of dolls, their clothing, & furniture. I also noticed that I accumulated several plastic bags. In my earlier attempts of organization the quickest holder was a plastic bag. When I look around I notice an abundance of plastic bags and let's not forget those cardboard boxes. We're all guilty of using that box that other dolls came in to hold other dolls. As I open containers, boxes, & bags I find some items I've been searching for and others I thought were sold. To refresh my memory this was my starting point when I opened my door of horrors. This was the result of letting a non-collector "help" me store some things.     No one loves your collection like you do, unless you should have another collector as your signifigant other. Once I opened my eyes and started this task I...

Shopping Faux Pas...Maybe

Image
OK so I've been behaving myself lately. I joined The WClub (of course I did) but decided against Barbie Collector this year. I've had a steady love affair with the pink aisle since 1995. Lately I have felt no love for what has been offered in the Barbie world. I have been able to resist buying a lot of the offerings for a while.  So my faux pas falls into the 60% off clearance sale going on @TRU. Now wait before you chuckle and say she went on a binge I knew it.  I did but a small one of sorts..LOL  I was only looking for Neighthan Rot when I went in.  As you can see I found him and some other things :O) I had to get Jasper once I checked the scanner price and it said $10.80. I love his hair, I was looking for Emmett too at this price. I wanted the Divergent guy but definitely didn't like his original price tag. I was led to him by a post on one of my groups saying they were on clearance for $13.48 O_o The vending machine I have an idea for (the man made ...

Finding "Lost" Love Again

Image
If you've been following my boring blog , LOL, you know I've been working on clearing out my clutter. In the midst of all this clearing & selling I've been finding things I have been searching for. It's so much fun finding lost loves.  Case in point: I have a love hate relationship with Skin Is In Kyori. I loved her when I bought her originally from my dealer but a few years later when Living Dangerously Kyori came along Skin was on my sell list. Imagine my surprise when I started having a longing for Skin. I've been checking ebay for them constantly for a decent price.  I was shocked further when today I discovered Sin (her new name) in a container I haven't thought about in quite some time. Sin will be getting an upgrade since her original body has yellowed. I'm in love with her and I didn't have to buy another!!   My story doesn't end with Sin. She wasn't alone in the container.  In one instant I found some of my ladies I kne...

"Premiere" Dreams

Image
My newest title gives way to the fact that I'm still dreaming about all the fun I had in L.A. at the Fashion Royalty Premiere Convention. We flew out of Newark airport on United Airlines. The flight was six hours oy vey. Thank goodness I had my travel dolls with me. This year I chose a classic and a newer doll to accompany me. Let me introduce Morgan (Splendid Jordan) & Antoinette (Urban Antoinette Adele) The flight out was 6 hours long. When did it become the norm for airlines to charge you for everything except water & soda. Maybe  it's me or the airline I chose..LOL.  We arrived safe & sound. Day 1: We arrived the day before the actual festivities.   There was a pumpkin carving contest put on by the hotel employees. I really liked this one. My ladies couldn't resist a photo op. I met up with my friend Cecile aka Chynadoll Creations. First thing I unpacked was my shopping bags. I was tired as all get out but shop I must. I use the big bags fro...
