Really Pretty Doll

A couple of years ago, my great-great-aunt gave this doll to me. Her name is Eliza and she comes with a certificate. You can see it by her feet. I tried to take a picture of it so you all could see it, but it came out blurry. Anyway, here she is. She has little bloomers, bows, tights, and shoes.

This is what the certificate says:

You are the proud owner of 7003-0,

of which 2000 pieces were created by

Delton Products Corporation. This doll is duly

certified as being #634 of this series.

Doll Furniture

The other day, I went to my great-great aunt's house. As a hobby, she designs minature homes and has them all over her office. She gave me a whole box of extra furniture that she wouldn't use. It was enough to create a whole house!

Here is a bird's eye view of the house. She gave everything to me except the table (it's by sister's) and the bed (I made it out of a box). There's a formal living room (top left), a kitchen with a tea set and potholders (top right), a den (bottom left), and a bedroom (bottom right).

Here are Felicity and Elizabeth's dolls. I posed them in the formal living room, which looks kind of colonial.

Here is Felicity's doll in the kitchen, making tea with the minature China tea set.

My First Dolls

Here's a picture of two of my first dolls. The one on the left is named Salley. The doll on the right never had a name, but she is a windup toy that plays "You Are My Sunshine". So, I nicknamed her Sunny.

My Dolls

Here are my dolls (my American Girl dolls will appear in a later post):

Here are my "I Love Lucy" Barbie dolls. From left to right (by episode): Lucy Does a TV Commercial, Lucy Gets in Pictues, Lucy's Italian Movie, and Job Switching.

Here are my retired "Girls of Many Lands". They used to be made by American Girl, but they were discontiued. From left to right: Isabelle, Cecile. I recommend getting their books (they have them at most libraries).

Here are my Barbie Collector dolls. From left to right: Eliza Doolittle (My Fair Lady), Audrey Hepburn (Breakfast at Tiffany's), Irish Dance (Ireland), and Mary Poppins (Mary Poppins, of course!)

Here is a Shirley Temple doll I got when I was little. I love her sailor dress!





These are some cornhusk dolls that belonged to my mom when she was little.
