~Not sure what it is but I just love these old Composition Baby Dolls. I'm not picky one bit, as a matter of fact, the ones that have faded eyes, arms or legs missing, stuffing falling out are the ones that I love best.~
~It's as if they were LOVED SO MUCH by A SWEET LITTLE GIRL they chose to save her in a box until someone like me would give them a home and love them as much as they did. Better then the landfill~
~This precious little one has darling molded shoes that don't come off, I was lucky enough to have a friend barter her, for some of my treasures on the website. A happy trade for sure! And she came all the way from California, Thank you MJ from YellowBeachDog Blog!!! She loves her new home~
~If you can find just the right clothes, you can't see their broken limbs, cracks or insides falling out. I believe it was age 5 when our family went to "THE HOUSE ON THE ROCK" and I was scared by the Dolls on Main Street, yet I kept going back to them and looking at them~
~I put a child size veil on this one to hide her cracks on her head~
~This doll reminds me of Alice In Wonderland, now just to find clothes. Do you see the PLATE in the BACKGROUND? I cannot for the life of me find any information on them. They are in French and Croatian and given to me by a friend here in town who told me to sell them in my shop or website....WHAT???? I DON'T THINK SO!
~These two are my worst ones but they are buddies and came to my house together. Arms a missing and all....Those are my baby shoe from when I was a baby. So glad Mom kept those and I can now display them~
Are you baby doll crazy too???? I always have been, always will be and happy I had all girls that loves dolls too!!!! (cept Maddi asked me to please take them out of her room cause they scare her....LOL)
Hugs and Love, Amy

Amy!
I'm laughing so hard about (cept maddi asked me to please take them out of her room cause they scare her...LOL).
I too love the old dolls so took my two best ones (not cracked or scary at all) and put them in my dd's room.
She's 10yo and has never been a "doll" girl, she likes stuffed animals far better. She was having trouble sleeping and told me that one of the dolls eyes were "following her".
Oh, and did I mention that she has the most amazing imagination I've ever seen?
The dolls are now in my studio...LOL!
Anyway, I came over to check out your blog on Amy's advice (Mittens Amy). Love it and will follow.....
I love old dolls! I think I have the same doll that reminds you of alice in wonderland. I'm working on some little antique looking doll ornaments.

I love love love old dolls and doll parts! My family and friends think that I am weird but the worst the doll looks the more I love her. And you can never have too many.. I think I have about 40 or more and I have many doll parts. I am so glad I found your blog by way of Mittens.
Oh Amy, how fun to see my old childhood doll among her new "friends"! Sweet!!!
And I agree with the next post ... I totally love the little rabbit skipping away too!!!
You have quite a collection there! They are all so sweet and have been so well loved. I don't collect dolls - but my mom does. She has over 1000 of various kinds. I love the old composition ones the best.
