Can’t you please have a Barbie club as well? Love you show, but I have a hard time understand who is who of you all? Holland Dian’s daddy for example, his name is Steven? but is he one of you working there? Greetings from Sweden.

It can be confusing because we share a lot of different content. Here’s who is who: 1) I am the owner. 2) Stanley, who watches Holland Diane, works here full time, and he does shipping and manages the day-to-day with me. He has been with us over 40 years! 3) Derek is Holland Diane’s Father, and he does not work here. He only comes on the channel once in a while. He is bald and wears overalls. He is a ceramic artist for a living. 4) Linda does doll repair and comes to our shop 3-4 times a month. She was in this video. 5) Christopher does the Barbie and modern doll styling for VDC, and he works here part-time, 2-3 days a week. We do different videos with each person, or sometimes it’s just me. It depends on the day and who is working, and what we can film that day. I hope that helps!

@@RachelHoffmanDolls after some videos, you get it. Rachel is the owner, her mum Diane started the doll shop, she has a brother named Paul , who collects American Girl dolls . She has a little dolly of her own, ray of sunshine miss Holland Diane. In the shop they also work Stanley, (who also helped raise Rachel!) Linda, and now Chris? he is specialist in Barbie and a goofy angel. They also have many guests as they navigate doll adventures, like people showing their collections or professionals showing their knowledge. There is also Doll convention online where there is many classes and lectures . Thats all I've observed

I have so many books on early and mid 20th century dolls. I’m disabled and can’t get out…partly because my immune system is suppressed…so the books are a blessing! I’ve learned so much from your videos, for which I am very grateful. I really enjoy making dolls shoes. And I love my thread collection…both cotton and silk. Some of the colors are gorgeous…I don’t care if I actually use them, lol.

Welcome back to Linda. Good to see her. I don't know if Ju meau ? Sp? Have ruffles on bottom of dress skirts but looks like enough for ruffle on bottom and ruffle on bonnet or ruffle headband?

And I so LOVE Holland Diane's play area with the adorable Winnie the Pooh Bear🧸🧸 inside💜💜💜💜💜!! Stan looks like he really enjoys being with Holland Diane too🤗🤗!!!
