Whenever we get vintage dolls it always makes me a bit wistful as they seem to really show how quickly life passes by. The little girl who owned these would now be a very old lady. The lovely thing is though dolls are always popular collectables and despite their very worn and much loved condition there is always another home looking to adopt them and take them in. We also got the dear little shoes in their original box, which although they are for a real little one would also be lovely for a old doll. To contact please email boathome@bigpond.net.au

Katherine if only these gals could talk - what stories they could tell and what sort of owners they have had along the way. I was thinking of you today whilst I was out thrifting - all good of course. Sandy xx

ReplyDeleteAs Sandy said, if only they could talk there would surely be a few interesting tales... ;-)
ReplyDeleteSometimes when you see old dolls you can't help but wonder how treasured they might of been.
ReplyDeleteOld dollies must have stories to tell and deserve a new home to celebrate their charm
ReplyDeleteIts funny isnt it how even the scariest looking old dolls find another home. I think they are such a sentimental item, well i still have mine from when i was a kid. I guess they will be antique soon ha! oh by the way I have given you yet another blog award so come on over and grab it!
