Barbie and Christmas Memories
For so many little girls of the early Barbie era, Barbie was only obtainable once a year, as a Christmas gift. The memory of coming to the Christmas tree and seeing that rectangular box in the early morning light is unforgettable. Even the scent of new Barbie vinyl was intoxicating and is indelible.
The excitement and anticipation of receiving Barbie under the tree was fueled in no small way by the first television advertisement which showcased the soon-to-be fashion icon in a most enticing way. Watch and enjoy the magic!

Downton Abbey Fabrics
I guess we knew it would happen. The only thing that would
make the wonderful series Downton Abbey even more amazing would be a line of
fabrics paying homage to the fantastic fashion eras covered in the series. Well,
Andover Fabrics is already way ahead of us, with their collections devoted to
the story’s main characters. Now, if only
they came in 1/4 and 1/6 scale.

SAN JOSE for Sale in My Etsy Shop
Exciting news at our house! My oldest son and his fiancee are flying to San Jose, Costa Rica, to be married at a beautiful, romantic resort on New Year’s Eve! In honour of their upcoming wedding I was inspired to create something for 16” and 12” dolls which to me reflects not only the destination but the adventure of it all as well.

Integrity's Exquisite Monogram Doll Outfit
I have been trying to decide whether or not to let this outfit go. I am usually interested in just the dolls when the new ones are released as I don't have the space to store all of the clothes and accessories. But the outfit which came on Integrity's "Exquisite" was the exception, mainly because of the amazing shoes. They are just so perfect! But, in my new-found drive to declutter and just let "go", I am putting this outfit on Ebay. Goodbye "exquisite" little shoes . . .
