Hello dear readers, I have been introduced to the magical world of porcelain dolls by my dear neighbour Rayma (see my previous blog post). One day, I ducked into the Salvation Army thrift store and came across this girl looking sad all alone on the shelf. When I asked the man behind the counter to bring her down for me, her leg came off in his palm and he said I could have her for $3 (she was marked as $9 originally). So I gave myself a challenge and decided to buy her and fix her up. A few things about her that I don't like: her hair is CARROTS (think Anne from Anne of Green Gables), there's orange glue oozing out of her eyes, she's missing an eye lash, the dress is horrid, and yes, her leg is broken. Why did I buy this doll? Oh that's right, challenge! Here's a look at at the loose leg. And here is a look at the pokey wiring. How am I supposed to re-attach the leg onto this?? So, I contacted my local Dolly Doctor and went to...
Every girl has a dream and this is mine.
