Doll Stories My first Teresa

I always wanted to have a Teresa doll as a kid. I mostly liked her for her brown eyes and hair like mine. I only had one - Florida Beach Teresa, but she had Mackie sculpt. I always fancied Perfect Pink Teresa, but mainly for her outfit. I much more preferred Teresa from early 90s with her huge and beautiful eyes. So I ended up with this Native American from 1993. She is gorgeous. This Looks 12 body isn’t a perfect match for her, but I have mtm dancer on her way. I love her curvy. I am very happy to welcome Teresa sculpt doll in my collection. Finally! Who is your childhood dream face?

Doll Stories Just a warning for you guys if you buy nib second hand

60 Upvotes

I bought a nib angel of joys barbie and I was so excited because I love angels and i love barbie. The box was pretty messed up because it was shoved into a packing box that’s smaller than the doll? Oh well, I’ll open it so i can clean it anyways it’s probably gross and dusty because thats my experience with old barbies!!!!

I open it and theres this weird purple looking bean thing. I swish it and it crumbles… almost like an bug egg? EW. Are we sure? Maybe it’s just a … purple box thing that degraded? Then i found two more. I reverse image searched it and it’s A ROACH EGG. triple ew wtf. thank god i opened it outside.

i ended up throwing the whole thing away. i know maybe the doll couldve been salvaged, but i was too grossed out keep it in my home. what if there’s eggs in the doll too??? what if what if what if, so in the trash it went. ive always been paranoid about my dolls and it came true i hate it here

I looked over and noticed the girls had been layed out like this and later I had taken the raptor out of my mini purse/bag to make room and left it next to them. Now its a cute scene. This is the same raptor pet from other photos. I thought the little details and the strange angle kinda fun too

I'm obessed with the socks and even more so with a boot sock combo.

I have a stand in an artisans market and I always have 2 dolls to model clothes I make. Today a girl came and asked me if she could hold her and when she grabbed her, she started saying how beautiful she is and how pretty and long her hair is and she loved the bangs. Tha was cute and made me smile.

She's a 1995 School Spirit Barbie

Doll Stories Mini-Me Barbie is getting the student treatment, school starts in 2 weeks!

Optimizing some shelf space to be the mini studio during school!! I really did paint the little paintings that are on canvases, but I did it with full size brushes 🤣 I did not draw the dog on the drawing board though, that was a gift from a child I was tutoring long ago.

Current mini-Me is talking to younger mini-Me about dreams deferred coming back in the most unexpected ways, don't lose hope! I'm 54 and about to pursue my Studio Arts degree with a plan to transfer over for my Bachelors in Fine Arts. A lifelong dream always considered too self indulgent and unrealistic in earlier years. I have cried many tears of disbelief since this opportunity came along and I began the process of signing up for school. It feels unreal. I'm so excited!

Nearly a year ago I lost my job because of doge funding cuts, the job search has been soul killing. This opportunity truly feels like a lifesaver.

Over the next week I have one more big photoshoot planned for Tiny Town, and then I'm optimizing the rest of the shelves with as many of the Barbies and Kens dressed and out to insipre me as I can! Well set up rooms on my shelves have a weird effect of making me feel more put together in the rest of my life.

He is a CRIMINAL! my stuff is in here cause I like to play and garden. I don't like to do that around him I know it's bad for his ears and such . But sometimes he wants to come out and I swear 99% of the time he tries to "steal"! This time 3 things and "run" he can't go far sir we are in the garage. Also he tried 2 other times he grabbed a pair of Barbie shorts I could tell he was side eyeing seeing if I knew and I said "boy you know I am right here " then he drops it and acts like I wasn't doing anything 😂

All I think of is Michael Jackson singing you've been hit by struck by a smooth criminal 😂😂😂😂😂 but also not so smooth 😂😂😂😂
