Midge Life in the Dreamhouse!

Hey Gang!

Back several years ago, I purchased Barbie and Midge Dreamhouse set at T.J. Maxx.
The box was horrible! but the dolls were in good shape!

I got them for the bodies but when got them home, the Midge doll caught my eye

I love her red hair! I must admit to being a sucker for red hair and the Midge/ Steffie 

head sculpts! So while the blonde head is up for sale with a few other life in the 

dreamhouse Barbies heads, I had to keep the Midge!

It was confusing for me around this time. I kept see different styles of Midge, 

Life in the Dreamhouse the set like what I purchased and the single!

Life in the Dreamhouse two dress set!

There was also a Glam Style Midge out too.  All of this doll had the larger head.

The hair eyes and lip color was a little different. They all looked similar to me at first but some 

time online showed me the difference!

Dreamhouse-a really red redhead

Glam Style- a strawberry blonde

From looking online, I knew that I wanted the Dreamhouse Midge but I wanted the 

Glam Style outfit! So I had the doll and was able to find parts outfit on Facebook!

She is now happy living in Johnston with her family! Say Hello Charlotte!
Charlotte: Hello! Nice to meet you all!

She needed a husband! So who should be the husband of Dreamhouse Midge?

Why McDreamy of course!

or Robert Mckenzie doll from Enchanted

I will be featuring him again in May!

So here is Charlotte with her husband Dr. Patrick McDreamy!

The McDreamy's

Charlotte: Say hello to the nice folks honey!

Patrick: Hello! 

Honey I have to head out the the hospital! I have a early morning staff
meeting. Charlotte: OK, see you at home.

If you are follower of my blog, you will know that I made them a couple
back in April of 2014 when I found Patrick again in a thrift store.

OK, Thanks for looking!

April Thrift Store Finds and Purchases!

Hey Gang!

So here are my thrift store finds and Purchases thus far!  I even have started
making jewelry for my dolls so I will show you that too!

First up is

Mary Poppins doll!  I think I scored with this one!  I have never see
this doll before in a thrift store!  She is articulated and her hair
and makeup are in good shape! 

She didn't have clothing but I found a bag of doll clothing at the thrift store!

Woo Hoo! You got to love it when you find doll clothes in good shape

at the thrift store! I don't mind buying new doll clothes but most of the new
stuff is made poorly and way to young looking for my older dolls.  Here is
Julie, that is what I'm calling her, with Camille wearing new outfits.  The
shirt and pants Julie is wearing came from the clothes bag along with the pants
that Camille is wearing. 

Camille is sporting I top that I got at our last Doll Club meeting!  I'm still

basking in the glow of the meeting!  She is also wearing a necklace I made. 

Thanks again D7ana! My dolls are loving all the wonderful clothing I got from you!

 If you read this post anywhere other

I-Luv-Dolls@blogspot.com
It is a fake!!! Run!!

Next is this doll. 

This doll is on her original body and she came with this dress.  Both her shoes

and the shoes Camille is wearing came in the the clothing bag!

I thought she might be Island Princess Barbie but I have one of those dolls. 
She has the same headsculpt (Barbie Basics Tango) as Island princess but she
is on a taller body and her hair color is different!  I made this necklace too!
I'm thinking about naming her Millie!

Then

This Stacie was at the thrift store too.  I like her hat!  It is real blue fabric and

not that pick plastic cap that they gave Darrin!  What were they thinking! 

Yeah, Darrin might have to borrow that hat!  Unfortunately her shoes
don't come off!:( She will still be a lot of fun around here.  Look at that
look in her eyes!  Trouble! She has been doing a lot of flipping around.
A Tomboy I think!

Also

I found this in the thrift store too. I don't know what it is but I got it anyway. If you
know, let me know!

It seemed to go well with my new Harry Potter doll.  Oh he isn't wearing his glasses.
He is wearing Max's glasses and Max is now wearing his.

And

Patrick Dempsey doll from Disney's  movie Enchanted is here again!  I had one before

that I sold because his head was soo big but I think I will keep him now. 

His clothing was also in the for mentioned bag.

 Should he be doctor McDreamy here?  What do you think?

Last Doll

Should he have a wife with a big head too?  I found this Live is a Dream Midge on
sale.  I am a sucker for a redhead.  Even a large redhead.

 Props!

I didn't need another house!  You know I didn't but I could just let is sit there!

 It was 3 bucks!  I just couldn't let it sit there.  I already have one Happy Family
house.  So maybe I'll do a street like Vanessa!

 The cart was $1.00. I saw these cart a while ago on Flickr and liked it.  It is not
complete but I'm sure I can "Froggy" something.

At first I only saw the one chair.  I madly searched for the second and hoped that
there were more but there were only two.

 Yelp! 25 cents each! I don't know what set they belong to.  If you know, let me know.

OK that is it for now!

Thanks For looking!
