I worry that there is a special place in Hell for those who steal doll stuff and I have so many things I want to pass on, I'd be more likely to leave additional stuff rather than take anything. Whew, right?<br /><br />I am touched that you think I would organize your collection, lol. Me? Still, getting my collection organized is a definite goal. Muff's <a href="http://heyitsmuff.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">post</a> inspired me. Now getting from being inspired to culling and selling - next ;-)D7anahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15497306465109590188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5580986768097342172.post-78914191662197615122014-05-23T19:20:09.907-04:002014-05-23T19:20:09.907-04:00You know you and Muff are welcome to come over and...You know you and Muff are welcome to come over and organize my doll stuff provided you don't take anything :-) !

Ha - looking to my left and seeing dolls on computer table and dolls on journal boxes and dolls on chest of drawers and dolls in shelves. Looking to my right and seeing doll fashions and accessories sharing the turtles' table. Looking to my south-right and seeing table topped with dolls, dolls on plastic bins storing doll furniture. Turning and noting that the bins forming the cat seat to both windows has plastic bins storing more doll furniture and another bookcase with dolls. Hmmmm ...<br /><br />Ahem. Maybe there is a leetle bit of a takeover here ...D7anahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15497306465109590188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5580986768097342172.post-71204571323197216532014-05-12T23:58:54.684-04:002014-05-12T23:58:54.684-04:00Apartment Therapy is an awesome site!

Even though I have much more doll stuff on display, not having so many actual dolls out and about makes it feel less like they are taking over the joint.Muffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06121187068323359131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5580986768097342172.post-81504020782831604962014-05-11T08:34:18.649-04:002014-05-11T08:34:18.649-04:00Pattisdolls, lol.

I had some dolls stacked in their boxes underneath a desk and he commented that they were "creepy".They were still in the box what was creepy about them? Not like they were out of the box staring at him at night while he slept plotting his death like some Chucky doll!! He's a grown man, not a little kid either..

The way Muff accomplished that goal and then shared the photos - so very impressive.<br /><br />Best wishes for a good time clearing out and organizing. Do share photos and impressions, if you have the time.

Now that's nerve. Whose house/apartment is it?<br /><br />Congrats on having your collection the size that you want it at. I am working on reaching that point ;-)<br /><br />Good luck on getting the bookcase glass replaced.

Or the anime doll posed seductively on that person's desk.<br /><br />So a collection of My Little Pony is putting off potential buyers of a house? Buyers should be advised to look past that kind of thing when house-hunting. On the other hand, sellers are told to pack most of their personal things away.<br /><br />I love the closet turned into a desk alcove.<br /><br />Since I have my doll collection *about* the size I want it to be, I do need moar storage units. We have a bookshelf with glass doors in storage, because the Dancer broke one of the panes of glass many years ago. Mr. BTEG and I have toyed with the idea of getting the glass replaced and using that for doll displays. (The dolls I want are from the same brands as ones I already have and can join existing displays.)Barb the Evil Geniushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04635449477605703171noreply@blogger.com
