I have Always Loved Barbie!

Not too long ago I was lamenting over the innumerable Barbie dolls that have become a permanent part of my home. My daughters left them, most of them are 90’s Barbies. At some point I decided to embrace the situation and make the most of my Barbie world.

This is Barbie World

Barbie world involves the dolls that were left at my house by the 2 little girls who once loved them. Those little girls are all grown up now, but their mom is too sentimental to part with their Barbie dolls.

In addition to these dolls, it now involves all of the other paraphernalia I’ve added to entertain 2 other little girls. When Lydia and Rory are at Glammy’s house, we spend most of our time together playing here.

I love Barbie and other Fashion Dolls, like Darci.

Darci has been mine for many, many years. She came with a pink one-piece swimsuit which I cannot find, but I do have her wrap-around skirt, flower, silver shoes, stand, and briefcase filled with fashion magazines.

Last week, when my family met at Mama’s house, my sister and I began a discussion that involved the many Barbie dolls and other fashion dolls that we’ve had over the years.

I insisted that I had a Tuesday Taylor dollbut I was actually thinking about Darci. I know they look nothing alike… apparently I was mentally overwhelmed and I took leave of my senses.

But I’m happy to announce that I’ve have made

Room for Tuesday!

It must have been the brunette hair that confused me!

Tuesday Taylor

Tuesday Taylor is a fashion doll which was presented by Ideal Toy Company in 1975. She was Ideal’s “answer” to Barbie. Tuesday Taylor had a remarkable rotating scalp, which could be manually turned to switch her from a blonde to a brunette and back again.
