Such a fun and unique video idea Kristie !! You come up with some of the best ideas for your videos. I watched this video twice because I just thoroughly enjoyed seeing everyone collections.

Aww everyone's collections are so inspiring! Thanks for sharing my lil collection too ❤ Thankfully, the dolls did not fall off that ledge - the things we do for good lighting! 😂 And yes, that is Mia and I do admittedly love a good classic mould - the AG sale has since seen me adding Kavi and Corinne to the fam, really mixing it up lol

A bit bummed I forgot to send in mine, but I’m adding a few more dolls in the next month or so to really round off my collection, so maybe it will feel more complete if you do another video like this in the future.

I wouldn't mind doing this again in the future (at most once a year) so maybe you can get in the next one.

Oh man this was such a good video. I came back after the Grammys (red carpet on E & the actual awards show) to watch a second time. The first time it was so hard to focus on the actual video while following along with the chat as the 2 year old screamed and the 6 year loudly pestered my husband in the background. I must say that there are so many great collections out there and I loved seeing all of them. It’s so nice seeing all of the ways different collectors display and dress their dolls. I also want to say thank you so much for showing my collection. It means a lot. This is the first time they’ve ever really been shown publicly. I’m working up the courage and time to actually post photos to Instagram since I now finally have an account. And very true - the dolls are kind of all over the house lol. It’s so cool to be able to walk down the hallway or look over while throwing a load of laundry in the washer/dryer and appreciate whichever doll/s might be there. I actually even have some dolls currently in the kitchen that I brought in there to dress in my recent Maplelea haul. They are lined up on the sideboard and I haven’t had the heart or frankly the energy to move them back to their appropriate spots yet. I actually kind of feel bad for the bulk of the collection in the basement doll room because I hardly ever get down there. Oh, and since I sent in those photos I got that 76 you recommended and unboxed Willa, 103, 86 and a second Corinne that I’m customizing. And I’m not really sure why I moved Garnet to that bottom shelf next to Laurel my 89 since he’s always been next to Caroline before.

I wondered if some of the folks who were active in the chat would go back and watch again lol. And it was my pleasure to feature your collection. I kind of love that it's all over the house and I get what you mean about feeling bad about the dolls in your basement being seen less. I do try to rotate mine fairly regularly because I know I spend the most time looking at whoever's in my office since they're my coworkers for the day.

“Scoot over ladies, my hair needs to breath” this was so funny! Aww thank you so much Kristie for your nice comments about my dolls. Somehow my Ruthie does have a wonderful head of hair. I love showing her off. I thought Kit looked adorable too in Claudie’s tap dancing outfit. ☺️ To answer your question, I do not have Ivy’s meet outfit so this is what she was in that day but she gets changed fairly often. I am not a huge fan of Ivy’s meet but would still like to have it someday to complete her. Blair is just Blair and I just think she is adorable. She does make a good Anne of Green Gables! 💕 Thanks so much for including my dolls in this fun video. 😃

I'm writing historical fiction books for both eras, so that's why I tend to stay with those two girls.

Hope here :) both Rebecca and Joss have their original wigs, although Rebecca is about to get a wig swap because her original one is completely fried (the previous owner straightened it to try cover up the damage, but it's still impossible to get a brush through because of all the damage underneath). Joss was bought to be a custom pilgrim character, however I haven't gotten my act together and made her clothes yet, so she's currently dressed as Edwardian. I'm not really a girl of the year collector, but Mia was so pretty I couldn't resist. Those unique freckles! That amazingly thick wig! Mia is my 1950s Maryellen stand in most of the time because I don't care for Maryellen's bangs, but to me they look somewhat similar. At the moment she's wearing one of Addy's dresses though, because I can't bear to take Addy out of her Christmas dress (my absolute favourite) but i wanted somebody to be modelling my latest purchase (the kite flying dress).
