Barbie My Favorite Barbie: The Original Teenage Fashion Model Barbie Doll

Barbie My Favorite Barbie: The Original Teenage Fashion Model Barbie Doll Review



When I unwrapped my Christmas present and found the 50th anniversary Barbie doll, I was thrilled. I opened the box and for a few moments, was in a state of bliss. But then I noticed a few drawbacks.
First, Her swimsuit is glued to her chest. Huh?! Well, there goes the hope of her modeling the Solo in the SPotlight dress. Oh, well. I try to put the gloves on. Nope, that won't work either! They are too small to be worn by any of my dolls. Hmm. Okay, well, at least she can wear the necklace. I pick it up, and what do I find... no strap. No elastic. No little snap-thing. No stretching, no spaces, no way to make her wear it. It's a totally useless ring of beads.
I put the black dress on my Fashionista Girly doll, and it looks fabulous. She suits it perfectly, especially when you add the pink scarf and microphone.
I like the doll, though. She is pretty, but her forehead is too low to be exact. Her hair isn't quite the right color, and her makeup isn't perfect, but she is still cute. She is heavier and sturdier than most modern dolls. Her microphone is great- metal and adjustable in height. I love the holes in her feet that make displaying her easy. I wish all collector dolls were that way, instead of having a thick plastic pole to support them, which shows badly and doesn't even hold them up right.
Overall, I think she is a great doll and I really love her-but she's not for younger girls. She's a disply doll, not for rough play.

Dress Your Infant Like a Classic Vintage Baby

With the resurgence in the popularity of vintage style in fashion and decor, there is a noted rebirth in vintage baby products. Some stores and websites specialize in carrying true vintage items for baby and others feature vintage reproductions that capture the essence of the style while allowing for modern conveniences. If you enjoy that era of style, these types of products might be the perfect way to dress your baby or decorate her nursery.

There are so many varieties of items that fall under the theme of vintage baby. Authentic items might be things like dresses or tunics for baby. Pedal cars or other toys might be featured by a company that carries true vintage items, but care has to be taken when using any older items that contain paint as the same safety measures weren't taken back then. There are also things like books, prints, or stuffed toys to compliment your vintage style. Whatever you might be interested in from that era of style, you should be able to find most any item online at one of many retailers specializing in these items.

Reproductions of vintage baby items are also growing in popularity. That style in general is popular in clothing and decor for adults as well. For baby, it's easy to find clothing in prints that are reminiscent of that era; dresses styled in a vintage way, or even stuffed toys that look just like on from many years ago.

Whatever the style of your nursery, there are many vintage-themed items that can compliment any decor. As you try to find unique items for your new bundle of joy, it can be fun to look into this style or even authentic vintage items. It's easy to imagine that if you find a vintage dress for your baby, there will probably be no other baby with the same dress from that era, as few would have survived until now.

The Art of Thomas Kinkade Collectibles

I can remember the first time I stepped foot in a Thomas Kinkade Collectibles gallery and how amazed I was that everything was so lifelike yet took me to a wonderland where the beauty held me in a transposed state of awe.

The paintings were of this world by a master far beyond the depths of imagination. Thomas Kinkade had transformed the way I would view art for the rest of my life and now, the master has found his works on more than just the canvas of the artist. 

The Thomas Kinkade collectibles such as the illuminated snowman and The Night Before Christmas are among my favorite pieces of his works. His paintings are warm and inviting with the surreal feel of reality, pulling you into the story each one so uniquely tells. 

Many say, as do I, that it is the "light" that is always shining on each piece he produces that makes Thomas Kinkade collectibles and art warm, inviting and simply one of a kind. Once you see his work you will have to agree that there is no other artist quite like him.

Collecting is more than just saying you have some pieces of a particular artist or sculptor. It is being able to tell the story that goes into each piece of work. What makes it so uniquely appealing to so many? What was the inspiration that brought a piece to come to sit in your curio cabinet or on your entry tables and even your works desks? Collectibles are something you can enjoy for years and generations to come. They are passed down to our children and grandchildren because it is something we care about and love to share.

The Thomas Kinkade collectibles will always be among the many of my favorite pieces, those that will surely find their way into the hearts of future generations. If you want to feel the warmth and hold the beauty, I invite you to visit Potpourri Emporium where you can understand and enjoy some of my favorite collectibles.
