In my quest to give more photo time to dolls that are unloved on the shelf, this doll is part of a Poppy Parker- Ginger Gilroy duo. At some point this Poppy had lavender heels that I have misplaced , I will find them probably in the dollhouse or in my box of shoes. I have never redressed either of this set because I was so captivated by both of their old world cocktail gowns. Here she is having a cup of coffee or tea in the morning.
I had purchased a lot of vintage Heart Family Mom dolls but haven't had much time to do individual photo shoots with them. I did do some research on what dolls they were, and the one in the yellow dress came from the Deluxe Surprise Heart Family giftset with a mom, dad, and a baby for a surprise party. This doll did not come with her shoes and the dress needs a little TLC. I paired her with my most recent purchase of a Mini-Brands Zuru baby in its yellow baby blanket, and she looks quite adorable.
I have been attempting to take more photos of dolls that have not been getting alot of camera time or love. So each day I go to the shelves and pick out dolls that have been somewhat forlorn, or forgotten by me and do some photo time and post them on my facebook page or my instagram. One that is neglected and is very lovely is my White Diamonds Elizabeth Taylor doll.
Some new photos of Jewel Secrets Month Barbie with the Steffie face. I found this doll in a Goodwill bag- a lucky find.
Happy Memorial Day. Remembering those heroes who have given the ultimate sacrifice for their country.
I took some more photos of the doll I purchased at a doll sale recently a few months ago. This is a beautiful doll if you are into the Franklin Mint dolls.

Since receiving this doll last year, I have never given her alot of camera time, nor redressed her or played with her very much. She is lovely and one thing I have been doing lately is pulling dolls off the shelf - randomly- and taking photos of them in the spare hour or two here and there.It is relaxing, fun, and gives me something new and fresh to blog about.
I paired her up with some of the new luggage we received last year as well, and she looks fabulous. Looks like she has arrived in the lobby of some retro hotel with her pugs in tow, with not a hair out of place.
I have been meaning to post this as I had purchased some adorable little patio chairs when I was in Hobby Lobby a couple of weeks ago to purchase some craft supplies. I found these adorable 1:6 scale patio chairs in bright pink and they also came in yellow- there was only one yellow which I did not buy at the time, but I did get two pink. They fit Barbie and Fashion Royalty and Poppy Parkers really well. They were priced at $8.99 each.
