This is not the post I planned to do. I had planned to do part II of the latest restaurant story. I took the pictures and everything. Unfortunately my camera card reader experienced a malfunction and it erased ALL the pictures I had stored on the disk. There were over 1000 pictures. Most of them were already downloaded to my computer. I was just using the disk as a backup. So no, I didn't shed any tears over it. I did lose all the pictures I took of the restaurant scene. So I decided (at 1am this morning) to use my crappy camera and take pictures of a few of my recent doll purchases. There are a few more that you will see soon.
This is one of the Bratz cancer dolls. I found her at Marshall's for $7.00. I bought it mainly for the clothes that will fit the younger girls, like Nikaya.
I also found this Barbie, Stacie set at Marshall's for $12.99. I can use the Barbie body as a donor. It's fully articulated up top, with click knees. The snorkel outfits and gear will come in handy, too.
A few weeks ago I found this golf cart with Skipper at my local grocery store, marked down to $16.00. Original price was about $27.00. I am showing the picture of it, because it's still in the trunk of my car.
I found another cool set of tool ornaments at Hobby Lobby this week. The tools are a great size for the Ken/Barbie sized dolls.
I picked up these mini Christmas hats from Hobby Lobby, hoping they would fit some of the babies in Morristown.
Here's baby Cameron modeling it for us.
Last, but not least, is the Barbie Dream Ship. I bought this from ebay back in October. I love that it is similar to my Barbie Dream Plane. I also love the newest cruise ship Mattel released, but that one wasn't in the budget.
Here's a glimpse inside.
Again sorry for the crappy pictures.
I will have to reshoot the restaurant scene this weekend. That sucks. I will be away for the next two days, babysitting for my cousin who is going on a cruise with her husband. How ironic. LOL. I wonder if they will do any snorkeling? I will be keeping up with my blog reading. I just won't be posting.
That's some good stuff! Whenever I get to busy with work, like now, lol, I don't have time to do a blog post but I sure do find the time to buy some doll stuff. All of mine is still sitting in their shopping bags, hiding under a table.
ReplyDeleteMuff - There's nothing like a great sale. I found a few bags not too long ago with doll stuff I had totally forgotten about. It was like going shopping all over again.
DeleteNice loot Vanessa.
ReplyDeleteSorry about your camera card malfunctioning. It is such a pain to have to do a re-shoot. I'm glad you have most of the pictures already stored.
Baby Cameraon is so alert and very photogenic, too.

DBG - I've been silently shopping. lol. I guess someone wasn't happy about that last photoshoot. Maybe Melanie felt I didn't portray her correctly. Oh well.
DeleteNice dolls and hats. I might have to make a trip to hobby lobby. The hats are cute.
ReplyDeleteMale Doll World - Hob Lob has their Christmas stuff 40% off this week. Makes it hard not to buy something.
DeleteI could use a few of those things. My 1:12 dolls can wear 8 inch Bratz clothes! Thanks for sharing. Nothing can hold back SUPER VANESSA! teehee!
ReplyDeleteGrandmommy - Those two Bratz outfits are soooo cute. Definitely worth the $7. Check you TJ Maxxs too.
DeleteGrandmommy - By the way, the only other pictures I lost were of that fabulous cheese cake I made. I guess I will have to make another one so I can get more pictures. lol.
DeleteHello from Spain: I had not seen before cancer Bratz dolls. It's a very interesting doll. I'm sorry your camera card has become damaged. I read that you had copies of nearly all the photos. I really like all your purchases. I love golf cart with Skipper. tools ornaments are very real. Great purchase. The baby is very cute with christmas hat. The boat is great. Perfect. yo enjoy babysitting for your cousin. I like to see your new toys. Keep in touch
ReplyDeleteMarta - Thanks. Yes losing all my pictures was terrible. It could have been a lot worse. Luckily I had copied most of them to the computer. So far I am enjoying the babysitting. All the kids are still at school for another hour. I've already prepped their dinner and made dessert.
DeleteThe tools would be a great buy! Wish I had that Lobby hobby here XD
ReplyDeleteV - Those tools are the perfect size. I bought a set last year and they were a little bigger. There is more in this set, too. Check your local Michaels Craft, if you have one.
DeleteHola Vanessa que bueno que tenias copia de seguridad de tus fotos, me encantaron todas tus compras, seguro les sacaras mucho provecho, esperamos con ansias tu regreso, disfruta tu visita con tus sobrinos, un beso.♥♡♥
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing where you got your doll bargains. Congratulations on finding them. I love the idea of using the Bratz fashions for the younger dolls. (Bratz has the best fashions anyway, lol.)
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to your make-overs and upcoming stories with the new (to you) Barbie Dream Ship.
Did you make camerons clothes ?
ReplyDeleteOMG, congratulations for your buy, its fantastic!! I love everything =)
ReplyDeleteGood trip!!
Great purchases!! None of them can be found here in Spain, unfortunately... I've got the fashionista cruise, but I like yours better, vintage stuff always looks best for me.
ReplyDeleteBonjour Vanessa,
