Went to Rozel bay with husband and mother this morning for a bite to eat, and noticed the old bloke cleaning his garage nearby. Soon there was a pile of old stuff inside a skip in front of the house, in which he sticked a paper sign: HELP YOURSELF.
I got 8 Barbie dolls (some very pretty) and outfits, a cute dress that fits Moyra, some nice books, a Burberry suitcase (with a broken handle, but that's ok) and other toys. All for free. I did my bit for the free circulation of goods - result!
I rarely buy Barbies new in box. There are so many gorgeous ones being sold for cheap at charity shops. I prefer to adopt old, ill treated Barbies in need of some good TLC. Now I'm going to try and save their hair - some of them are very frizzy. Will post pictures later.
Talking about pictures... Here's Emmaleth, my Narae. The jacket is from a My Scene boy doll - I never thought it would fit her. The socks are from Dollmore and I am SO happy that all my MSD sized shoes fitted her so well. No need to buy more shoes, yay! The skirt was made by me and I'm quite pleased with it. I can't put in words the pleasure that it is to see my dolls wearing unique outfits that I have made for them. Ah, the cheap pleasures of life.
