Update

Sorry, but haven't been able to post till today. 
I have been under the weather for almost 
2 weeks.  Couldn't get out of bed without feeling sick. 
The past two days I have been feeling somewhat 
better, but not good enough to go doll hunting. 
Today there was an estate sale that had 
vintage Barbie's which I would have loved to go to
but it is not in the cards. :( 

Since I have no new dolls to post about, I found a site 
to purchase dolls online. 
They seem reasonable. Prices are like what you 
would find at the stores here in the U.S. 
They have Barbies, M.H. but couldn't find 
any Liv dolls. 

It's called Toy Country. 
Check out their website at: 

They also have a site on E-bay where they sell their clearance items. 

Their e-bay site is at 


Has anyone purchased any dolls from either of these sites? 

Hope to be back soon. Keep checking every so often for updates.

Fashion Doll Furniture

Yesterday when I went to the 
Thrift Store I found a bag of 
Fashion Doll Furniture. 
Couldn't really tell what was in 
the bag, but for $2.93 how can
you go wrong. 
Most of the pieces are marked Goldlok Toys, 
Made in China. 
One of the pieces is marked 2002, others 
2004 and some not at all. 
From what I can find on the internet, 
Goldlok Toys still makes the doll furniture.
I have never seen the doll furniture sold in my area. 
Can't tell which if any retail stores carry the
items.  Some of the furniture can be 
found on Amazon, E-Bay and other sites. 
You can go to the Goldlok Toys website 
to see what pieces of furniture they manufacture. 


 Living room wall. 
Fireplace lights up and there is a button on the side
to control the crackling sound of the fire.

 This was part of a kitchen island. 
Drawers do not open.
Wardrobe 
Part of the bedroom set.
 Doors and drawers open 

 Display cabinet. Missing the 5 perfume bottles 
that belong on the middle shelf. 
Press the button on the phone and the phone 
rings and the crystal like animals light up. The 
middle animal spins around if you move the dial. 

 Not sure if this is made by Goldlok.  I can just 
picture this holding a small vase or statue. 

 Grandfather Clock.
Shower, missing the tub. 

The furniture manufactured by Goldlok, now 
comes in pink. :(

Clawdeen and Howleen Wolf

On Sunday, I read a post by 
(Check out her site!) 
about a Monster High 
Sister Set I didn't even know 
about. I put it on my want list! 
So today, before going to the 
Thrift Store I needed to stop 
at Target to pick up a baby gift. 
Now you know any doll collector
is not going to go into a store without 
checking the doll aisle. 
Lo and behold, there was the Sister Set!

Been slowly cleaning the room where 
I keep all my doll stuff trying to

thought I would post her.

Cali Girl Christie

If it wasn't for a lady customer I know who 
I met at the Thrift Store, I might have never 
bought this doll. 
She was on a bottom shelf hidden among all the 
other stuff in the Thrift Store, not in the usual 
spot with the other dolls. 
I was walking down the aisle, when she called to 
me and asked if this is a doll I would want. 
You know what my answer was.
