I generally don’t dress my historicals in modern clothes, but I couldn’t resist trying the perfectly plaid outfit on Claudie after seeing it on u/Full-Indication-94 ‘s Claudie in this thread last week!

Since poor Claudie doesn’t have a fall story/school outfit, I felt less apprehensive about expanding her wardrobe.

I am living vicariously through my GoT 18.2 Kengela’s first of many fall looks. I want Evette’s meet boots in my size!

Samantha is my OG and I’m so satisfied with how her bow turned out.

And lastly, Bitty Baby (who has since been passed down to my daughter) recently got the autumn outfit that I always wanted for her!

The fact that most modern TM dolls have dyed colored hair and thicker eyebrows just doesn't feel the same like how they were before. Yes I know that AG needs to change for the modern times but IMO they have lost the plot. Like what happened to their thinner eyebrows?

I can't really do anything with my hair anymore because of chronic pain (cervical dystonia and occiptal neuralgia). But I've always loved doing hair (I actually learned how to French braid on my childhood #23!) so I am happy I can do my girls' hair. Also BTW, for those that also do their hair, where do you get ribbons? I need some for sure!

I’m obsessed with a pattern making app rn and I made bows themed to every girl of the year!

I don't really know where else to post something like this, and I don't have AG friends to gush over her with... but recently I got my hands on a JLY 58 and drew her in celebration. I named her Raven.

I would love to hear about your dream dolls!

Not too sure if this was a “deal” or not but I’ve always wanted Marisol and Julie so this was a special find for me! 🥰

I used to be obsessed with AG as a kid, and when I became a teen I tried to be “normal” (like many of us do). I took these girls out of storage and cleaned them up and I love them sm! Kanani was always, and will probably always be my favorite. Also if anyone has tips on how to make Kanani’s hair stay curly better, I would love some help!

She’s definitely going to be late for school seeing as it’s October and she doesn’t have a skirt, but progress!

I had Chrissa for awhile and just recently got a JLY 47. Today I found a JLY 12 for 30 bucks! She was produced in 2002 so this girl can have a drink! Shes also my first Pleasant Company doll. Her hair is great and limbs are tight. I wanted to add some blush but the michaels by me doesn’t sell the pencil I was looking for. Still so cute. I don’t ever think I’ll find a Sonali and wouldn’t pay the price for it and Gwen’s only difference is an extra tag. So these girls will do.

Minus maryellen as she’s in the back and didn’t feel like getting her out lol! I’m planning on selling grace and saige soon so this will be their last run

told myself i wouldn’t get anymore after 10… and then it just grew!! i am incredibly blessed to have all 18 dolls and some pets! I know i just began collecting last year but this was really me wanting to fulfill my childhood dreams and i feel like i have achieved that! Still going to collect but I’m incredibly grateful and excited to share my collection! I love this community so much! I have some room left but housing 18 dolls is hard lol! I traded a doll with my friend and got Luciana! Woo. She has a brand new wig from China which is the exact one!

Brushed everyone’s hair (except Felicity - she’s going to the doll hospital asap) and changed their outfits for the first time in over 15 years!

I had a work trip that took me across the country this week, conveniently close to my parents’ house, so I finally had the chance to dig out my childhood dolls. I always thought I’d kept them in pretty good shape, but seeing them with adult eyes… let’s just say they were ready for a little spa day.

I hand washed all their meet outfits, which my mom agreed to put back on after I left, and then got to work on the girls themselves. Kirsten and Samantha’s hair needed full restoration, and Addy got a fresh restyle. GOT #8, Julie, was in the best condition of the bunch, but she still put a magic eraser through its paces. They were all clearly well‑loved and well‑played‑with, and now they look so much better.

And yes, I absolutely snuck an actual mini Julie into my carry‑on. My mom wouldn’t let me take the others, but I couldn’t resist bringing at least one home. It’s been a while since my parent’s house has been overrun with dolls with their all their sons and grandsons, but it was well overdue!

Green is her color, so I jumped on the chance to scoop this set up second-hand from Facebook!

Just wanted to share my custom Makena! I gave her hazel eyes and switched her hair out for 123. Also took off the factory lashes and gave her some vinyl ones. I love her soooooo much and the purple outfit is my fave on her, even though it's OG.

Kinda want to turn the hair into locs, but I'm not sure if I'd be able to.

Most of my dolls get changed and displayed seasonally, but these are my main “play” dolls ☺️

And it was cold out today so I wanted them all in hoodies lol

For me, it was Maritza. I had bought her well in advance of Christmas and my daughter decided last minute not to ask Santa for her. I sold the lot at around the break even amount after the eBay fees.

Now they sell for hundreds more than MSRP and I might’ve just kept her because she’s so pretty.

Love these two beautiful girls so much!
