Hey, everybody! Great pictures on the thread -- and love that donkey.
Here's my tree for this year:
I still have three or four McDs toys that I couldn't fit on, as the tree was smaller than I thought. And I think one of the keychains, a Ken in his tux, is missing. I hope the dog didn't get it!
Thought I'd share a picture of what's been on top of my computer monitor:
Allan is wearing a suit from my vintage Ken and case lot. There were two, so Allan gets one. I put new elastic on the tie, but it's a bit loose. I got Allan as a head only, and put him on a body from a TLC Ken lot.
Stacey is from a boxed set (called Holiday Sisters, I think), picked her up at a thrift store. She has a little wagon with a gingerbread house candle, a miniature artist bear, pink thimble that belonged to my late aunt, and a tiny pink Power Ranger that I "borrowed" from my son. 😄 The wagon and everything but the candle sits on top of the monitor all the time.
Midge is wearing a Barbie sweater, from some grocery store issue, I think. Her knit pants are part of a lot I got in a giveaway -- the legs are actually the same length; shoes are from the Silken Flame repro.
I hope everyone is having a great day! I've got to get going on some last-minute cooking before I put the turkey in the oven. 🙂
Hi Sheila! Hope you had a great day. We sure did. Lots to eat
I like your Allan and Midge. He looks good in Sat. Date suit. He is giving Midge
the eye. I like that sweater. Goes good with her knit pants. And I love the little wagon and all the goodies. Stacey has a bit of chubby body that I like too.
Got a couple more Christmas pics:
I like a little variety in the doll room. Breaks up the vision of all Barbies and adds a little something. 2 of the dolls in the chair are from when I was a little girl. The brunette soft bodied one and there is another that you can't see except for the green stocking hat. The brunette was the first doll I ever had. I played with her so much, both her arms went missing
Used to put her in a box and drag it behind my trike and then bike. The bottom wore through and her bottom drug on the ground. Totally ruined her pretty undies. I brushed her hair a lot, so she has missing plugs. Then later,(at about 12) I cut some off to make a wig for my FQ. So, she has been through the mill. She gets an oily face so have to wipe her down every once in a while. The pink tree is grandma's. Has a wind-up music box that plays Jingle Bells.
This digital camera eats batteries with just general use. I think it was Treefern who suggested finding an ac/dc cord and just plugging it in to save in batteries. It is an older camera and not sure it has a 'jack'. Keep forgetting to look
I have enjoyed looking at everyone's Barbie Christmas gatherings!
Shirl, I cannot believe the beautiful b/c and p/t 6 you found. What a deal! I also love a 6. She was made during my youth so I am partial to her look.
Thanks everyone for the great pics.
