I love my dolls but my house is small so only a few of my little people get to “Strut Their Stuff” at any one time. Though I “switch off” who gets displayed most of them are destined to sit in their boxes on shelve the rest of the year. On August 22nd and August 23rd I Hosted what, I hope, will be my First Annual “Open Doll House” I spent weeks transforming my house into a miniature show place for dolls and accessories. I had great fun pulling out my entire doll collection and props presenting them in small vignettes. All of my Tonner dolls were there plus Gene, Trent and some old friends from days past when I was making porcelain dolls. Most of the dolls were dressed in my own designs but there are a few Collectables from Tonner that I just Love! The Wizard of OZ and the Chicago collection were there along side my own Pirates and Dream Girls. Brenda performed in her showgirl outfit and later hosted the after theater party. A group of theater goers: Tyler, Sean, Emme and Scarlett dressed to the 9’s in eveningwear and Capes waited patiently to see the show; while Basil, on his motorcycle, got stopped by a cop on his way to the party. Trent as “Indy” showed off for a peasant dressed Gene. Cinderella was there in her working garb and seen at the ball with a dashing Matt as the Prince. My porcelain Father Christmas, Hello Dolly! And award winning “Granny” watched over as Family, Friends and neighbors came for a “look see” and some ice tea and cookies. I was very pleased with the comments I received and people enjoyed viewing my whole collection. Harry Potter and Friends were a big hit! While my I love Lucy collection from Mattel spurred my stories of when I worked with Lucy and knew her personally. I have taken some pictures to share my “Little Actors” for my friends who couldn’t make it (that means You!) and have posted them here. I hope you enjoy them as much as I have enjoyed presenting them to you. Any Questions or Comments?
