My Own Little Art Exhibit: The Goth Dollies
*waves* Hey! Good Friday afternoon to you. There’s been a lot of downer posts around here lately and I’m sorry for that. Today’s post (I hope) should make up for that. Today I’m going to share a side of me that isn’t a cancer patient or a snarky political and pop culture commentator. Today I’m going to share with you something that makes me happy, my funky doll collection.
A few years ago I bought a book full of blogging idea titled No One Cares What You Had For Lunch. Today’s post is a mix of 2 different ideas. I am curating my own art exhibit and showing you my funky doll collection. I love dolls. I collect them on and off, mostly when I have extra money. The dolls I chose for this post are my goth dolls. I love these and wish I had some place to display them. I know shows like Clean House disapprove of people’s collections of almost anything and the designers are loath to utilize them in any redesign but I love my dolls and I’d never sell them. One day I hope to have some place to show them off. I need a display cabinet or a shelf or something. My Barbies (a post for another day) need doll stands so they can all stand up.
This collection features Living Dead dolls, a Little Apple doll, and 2 Bleeding Edge dolls. Like I said, I have nowhere to display them so for this post they are arranged on my desk and the windowsill next to it.
I’m not sure why but I didn’t photograph all the Living Dead Dolls separately. They are, from left to right …
Sheena, Bride of Valentine, Greed, Sinister Minister, Bad Habit, Kitty, and Lottie.
If I get time or feel creative enough, the next collection I’ll showcase are my beloved little Smurfs. If I ever raid my mom’s house I have a wind up collection and a gorgeous shell collection given to me by my parents’ friends Tootie and Dorris. Oh and somewhere hiding in this house are my Strawberry Shortcake dolls.
Until next time …
Stay Spooky!
Love,
~ me ~
