I don't know how I stumbled across your channel but I'm sooo glad that I did! Since binge watching your videos you inspired me to look for my old barbie dolls I used to play with in the 80s and early 90s ☺️ I just received my rappin rocking barbie that I bought on ebay but she is a little moldy and sticky legs but thanks to what I've learned from watching you I know I can fix her up. Thank you so much for the content and I love your authenticity. God bless you both 💕🙏✨️💖
You girls are so cute together ! You have such great chemistry ! I love your collection . I'm a doll collector as well . I can so relate to your excitement about each and every one of these dolls . Thank you for sharing .
Watching your videos feels like being at home. I'm always happy to see new pictures and videos from you. Thank you for always putting in so much work so that we can share in your enthusiasm.
I am so glad you got all those beautiful dolls. They are in best hands and home now. I want to thank you because I was able to identify my childhood Barbies thru your channel and content. I had to give them away when I grew up (you know the story and how it goes 😃) and now in adult age I wanted them back. I stumbled on your channel and videos, identified them but kept watching because you are such beautiful souls and I love your care and effort for abandoned dolls and how you make them beautiful again. I love watching your channel because of that. I learned a lot. I just bought one of my childhood Barbies (boxed, Tennis Barbie from 1986.) and waiting for it to arrive. And I am still looking for another one. Thanks and lot and all the best wishes for you and your sister. 💚💕💓
I was so happy to see how excited you girls get over your dolls 🥰🥰and it was so sweet and generous of the people who gave them to you and they couldn't have given them to better dolly Mommie's 😊😊I smiled through this whole video 🥰🥰Much love to you lovely ladies and many, many Blessings ! 💖💖🙏🙏🙏🙏
This was such an awesome video, girls! PLEASE WRITE A BOOK I will be the first in line to buy it! Emma's earrings are so adorable! Thank you so much for posting videos and talking to us about dolls and being so informative. You ladies should really write a book like identification books etc. You would be making us dollie lovers so happy. Have an awesome weekend, precious ones.
Thank you so much! I'd love to write a book, but sadly there isn't a market for them anymore because of the internet (which is why you don't see them newly published anymore). Have an awesome weekend too :)
@@AThousandSplendidDolls Aw boo!!!! That is so disappointing. I fear that you are right. I LOVE books, still. That's such a shame. But, thank you so much for all of the awesome info you share with us. It means a lot to us. xo
I love y’all’s channel so much I collect American girls and strawberry shortcake dolls . I don’t really know anyone my age who still collects dolls . So I definitely appreciate seeing others who do the same as me . I also love your Flickr as well . ❤😊
And that is nice of that person that gave you all those dolls. They're so beautiful. You sure fix them up. Seems like Colleen loves them just as much as you do. 😊🌻
Sorry about the smelly lol… we don’t collect Cabbies, so they were all picked up at Goodwill specifically for y’all, and the Goodwill can get smelly hahaha
@@AThousandSplendidDolls They are baby dolls, often chubby,really cute.Sadly very hard to find here in the UK.Ebay is usually where I get them.Maybe you will see them at the markets, the brand name is usually on the back of the neck.
What a wonderful bunch of new friends ❤I’m with Colleen with the soft cabbie being her fav , Our family goes to 400 Lakewood antique market every year around Easter ( tradition) and I kept seeing this one cabbie ( bald boy ) but the price was ridiculous, he was dirt no cloths of diaper ! But finally after 4 years my heart broke that he was still there so adopted him and 2 brothers ( both curly dark brown hair / Brown eyes , so they enjoyed watching this video with me ❤
Awesome haul I just enjoy watching your videos you really have lots of knowledge of the dolls I also get excited when I get dolls from Mercari that’s were I buy mines I haven’t found no dolls in my goodwill here in Buffalo that interest me 😢so I get excited when you get dolls from goodwills thanks for sharing have a bless night ❤
You girls are so clever, I have saved a lot of dolls in thrift & 2nd stores, but I have no idea who they all are or what year they are from I just wash, style their hair & redress them. Great job to both of you. 🇦🇺💞
I love the 90s Barbie’s and 2000s especially the 90s I had to treat myself and buy myself 1997 school time fun barbie I love her brown eyes and her 90s face just waiting for her to come in the mail she has the most cute 90s barbie face
What an awesome lot of dolls! I had a visceral reaction to seeing the cloth body cabbage Patch girl. She's pretty perfect huh? I think I had a knockoff who was cute but I think she was much smaller. I know what you mean with certain dolls stinking. I have around 6 AG sized Alexander dolls -from different sources and not only are all their legs dangling and heads lolling, but they smell like human musk, for lack of a more appropriate term! It's vile! I'm not giving up on them though. Last question, have you heard of Monchichi dolls? They coexisted with CBKs and I remember them being sort of popular. I think they were monkeys? Or marsupials? I don't know. They had faces that resemble cabbie's but troll like brown fur. 😂 Your Flickr photos are very helpful btw.
Thank you so much :) The softie girl is perfect indeed! I'm sorry to hear that some of your Madame Alexander dolls smell so badly. I had some moldy all plastic dolls that smelled for a few years after I cleaned them. So it can take a while for bad odors to fully dissipate. I have heard of the Monchichi dolls before--they are cute in a weird sort of way!
Unfortunately not. As I mentioned at the end of this video, we had so many doll projects going on I couldn't film one. But there will be some footage of their baths included in another video :)
I don't know what kind of hair they have--it might say on American Girl wiki (although it was never mentioned that Princess Tiana had textured hair) :)
What happened with your mini Maryellen doll? I personally love Maryellen.She my favorite American girl doll in my collection.I would love to see you get a Maryellen because of all doll collector I follow on TH-cam (you and Colleen are my favorite) I know you are the only one with the skills to fix Maryellen up to look like Sandy from Grease.I love your cabbage patch dolls and the Bitty twin. Your Teresa doll collection is fabulous. 29:28
Thank you so much :) I forgot to bring mini Maryellen out for the video--she was sitting with my Nanea doll on display. I'd totally buy a Maryellen if I saw her at the flea market for the right price, but I probably wouldn't buy her brand new :)
@@AThousandSplendidDolls Oh I can understand that.I bought my Maryellen brand new a on sale.She had very thin wig on top but I totally fell in love and wouldn't trade for a Maryellen with a perfect wig.
Even brand new they have their quirks :) I have thought about getting her on sale in the past, but never actually did so. Sometimes it's more fun to randomly find them at the flea market for me.

Aw, thank you so much :) Congrats on your Rappin' Rockin' Barbie--I hope she cleans up well!
It's so satisfying how you guys already had the correct clothes for most of the naked Barbies you received. Also Dirty Delilah is an amazing name
Thank you! It was pretty lucky we had the right clothes :)

Ooh so many precious treasures! What an awesome gift. Great work on everything. I'm really happy you now have a soft sculpture girl Cabby now. 🥰
Thank you so much! I'm very excited to have one :)
Beautiful bunch of dolls! I'm so glad they were given to you to love and restore 💗
Thank you!

Dirty Delilah .. 😂😂
Very dirty!!!
Sorry about the smelly lol… we don’t collect Cabbies, so they were all picked up at Goodwill specifically for y’all, and the Goodwill can get smelly hahaha
I think it comes with the territory of collecting 80s Cabbies. Even when kept nice, they still hold onto odor ha ha!
Maybe she was a Garbage Pail Kid in another life 😂 ❤
That would explain the black hands and feet ha ha!
My absolute favorite is rapping rocker Barbie!!! 👏👏🎵🎵🎵💛💛💛💛💛💛
She's awesome :)
I love how excited you get over dolls....no matter how old :)
Thank you! Sometimes the older the better :)
Awesome video so many cute Dolls and accessories ❤ Thank you for sharing ❤

Thank you! Yes, the softie is fantastic!
Nice...enjoy your newest treasure trove.

Some gorgeous dolls there ladies, well done. Do you ever come across/collect berenguer dolls, they are my personal favourite
Thank you :) I've never heard of those kinds of dolls before.

Thank you so much! Mercari is fun to shop on too--I just wish they hadn't added all those new fees recently.
@@AThousandSplendidDolls yes those fees hurt our budget

Great job to both of you.
🇦🇺💞
Thank you so much :) I'm sure they appreciate you cleaning and dressing them up!
So many lovely gifts! The Tenny is definitely a stand out! I've been really enjoying my thrifted AGs lately 😊
Thank you! It's awesome how many American Girls can be found while thrifting these days :)
So many great dolls.💜
Thanks! We were very lucky :)

Colleen shirt😂😂😂

I checked out the American girl store online and there's some cute boy dolls there that has that afro hair. Would love to know the texture of them.
Did you check out the American girl doll store online. So tempted but I try to keep away.😂
