I will be expanding this year and adding more unique items. I will definitely checkout your blog. I wasn't spending as much money until I starting reading blogs and looking at pics on Flickr. Now every time I go to spend money on something like food or gas, I figure out how much doll stuff I can buy if I forego the food or gas. It is getting utterly ridiculous!Vanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09027064808344974667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686868691603248122.post-16494986000157105842011-02-10T08:46:17.163-05:002011-02-10T08:46:17.163-05:00This post had me dying!!

Just got started last summer thinking I would pick up one doll for my 4 year old - six months and hundreds of dollars later i am addicted. Please check my blog I have been using as an outlet - that no one actually reads...it's at playbarbies.wordpress.com and I will be stopping by regularly for sure.kristl tylerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01698387730230490542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686868691603248122.post-78800050446725469392011-01-31T16:11:53.251-05:002011-01-31T16:11:53.251-05:00@ Desperately Seeking Dolls You know you are one o...@ Desperately Seeking Dolls You know you are one of my major enablers.

They have it 50% off regularly. Last week it was on sale for $1 for the white and $2.50 for the colors and patterns. I stocked up!<br />-I did find nice contact paper there last week. You will see it in the Pediatrician Video. I didn't see the beige one yet, but I got a nice green and white, a black and white, and a light blue one that looks just like the beige one.<br />-I also got some bamboo placements.<br />-I keep looking at the erasers, but I make most of my food out of polymer clay which looks more realistic. I would like to get the Gallon of Milk eraser.<br />-I will check for the other stuff when I return.Vanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09027064808344974667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686868691603248122.post-13877961088587012402011-01-31T10:38:06.871-05:002011-01-31T10:38:06.871-05:00@ Ms. Leo You crack me up!

I bought a couple of the LIV dolls on clearance. I couldn't resist $5 or $10 for them.

I bought eight 54 gallon bins this past month (on sale of course) which was why I was afraid to look at my bank balance. The damage turned out not to be so bad because it seems like I ate less. The grocery bill was lower anyway. <br /><br />Next time you are in Dollar Tree, they have some other great finds:<br />--20" x 30" foam core boards $1 each<br />--Contact paper (there is a beige marbled print that will make great sand for your beach scenes).<br />--Bamboo place mats. I bought eight last week. Now I can do a martial arts studio or a house with Japanese tatami mats on the floor.<br />--Wacky erasers (donuts, slices of cake, ice cream, hamburgers, hot dogs, fries, and drinks all in approximately the right scale for fashion dolls -- who probably don't need to be eating that kind of stuff!)<br />--Color oil slime. Comes in a clear container shaped like a steel drum. Not quite as large as a steel drum would be in scale but still useful.<br />--Dinosaur fossils. I'm envisioning an expedition in a cave.<br />--Steps for extreme skating. The risers are only about 6" in scale whereas real stair risers are usually at least 8" but the steps would be 2' high in scale which is good for a front stoop.<br /><br />Happy shopping!PRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04349439780541551717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686868691603248122.post-80179472316741652502011-01-30T15:50:48.462-05:002011-01-30T15:50:48.462-05:00Yeah and he really loves to eat too!

I like to put him in a carb induced coma on the couch while I play with dolls! If anything ever happens to him, I'll have him taxidermed in that very position.

We still haven't gotten the Basic Jeans. :(<br /><br />I also started doing tube sock dresses. Thanks Ms. Leo. :)<br /><br />Thank you for putting up photos of the Home Depot lights you told me about. Now I know what they look like. <br /><br />Congrats on the redhead Basic Jeans, I so want her. She's the one I had in mind for my Byron...if I don't find a match for him with my current girls, I just might have to get one. :)<br /><br />I'm so glad you got the S.I.S. girls because you're right, I don't think Mattel will be making anymore articulate ones and I don't know if they're keeping Chandra in the line up. She's become HTF.<br /><br />Congrats on the Liv sets, dolls, Ken's clothing and I can't wait to see the video.Stardoll40https://www.blogger.com/profile/05730564895498346572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686868691603248122.post-70630665049869860642011-01-30T00:28:30.610-05:002011-01-30T00:28:30.610-05:00I haven't bought lights yet.
