I stopped at a SAVERS a few days ago. I hadn't been in a thrift store since before COVID! I picked up jewelry to break down and make into dangly doll earrings or statement necklaces for dolls, great clothes for fabric for doll clothes, and also found four great recent issue Fashionista Barbies in darker skin colors (I enjoy coming up with outfits and stylings suited to ladies of color, because it stretches my imagination; pasty white lady here). What fun! I have hair-washed and restyled and dressed everybody, and came up with some cool looks from my stash of stuff. So ennervating for only spending $26!

Life size vintage Barbie dream house!!!! Can’t wait. Another fun video, and thanks for introducing us to your precious dogs & taking us thrifting. I have found three Magic Attic dolls with extra outfits in the last year at two different thrift stores, half the fun is the hunt😉.

I know I was late to this hanging out party you had, but thank you so much! That was really fun and what I needed this morning. I lost my mom in July of this year and (yes it's not a club anyone wants to be a part of) but I appreciate you sharing the special memories (your special place in your doll shop). And just hanging out and enjoying things. I loved seeing your dogs, too! Thank you :)

Dang that was SO fun. You know I cannot resist the doll shop! I also went to a thrift store today but didn't find anything, not to worry as I will go to some more tomorrow. I don't recall if I shared this before, but a few weeks ago I found a Silk Stone Barbie at a Value Village. She has a broken arm but it was in the box. Otherwise she is in perfect condition and in her original box. I picked her up and just kept walking! I paid $7.99 !! I like Taco Bell and I always get the cheesy Bean and Rice burrito. I love sales and I love dogs, they are so stinking sweet! You are a remarkable person and make the world a better place! Thanks for hanging out!

Then came the end with your adorable fur baby girls and I knew I met my doppelgänger lol I have dogs two female chihuahuas one white and black the other blonde I call them sisters… I love your channel and first found it when you showed the Patti play pal collector and then began meeting more doll lovers like me in all your other virtual doll shows❤.. thanks so much for this ….

I found a Madame Alex “Kin” Wendy, from the 1960s, Little Women Beth, at a Savers store for $1.50. In the box! I mostly avoid the dolls at thrift shops, because I invariably find yet-another big baby and I’m running out of room. Rachel, this KZbin channel is a joy. Kewpie makes everyone happy ❤️

I'm Rigor Ramos from Manila, Philippines, I'm always in awe of the dolls in your store. I've watched this one video where you've given this sweet girl a basketful of Madame Alexander dolls!

Rachel, This was a really fun video:)!! I personally LOVE the smell of Lilacs:)!! And Lilacs are purple, my favorite color:)!! It is a good idea to just cover up your windows to kept the clothing on your Dolls from fading. As a Kid and an Adult, I made the mistake of not thinking about the sunlight and my Effanbee Doll Kathleen's Victorian style dress and hat went from a green with white pok a dots to now it is a purple with white pok a dots, oh well! And the Kewpie Dolls in your store are so cute:)!! I had a vinyl Kewpie Doll as a Child, but sadly it is lost to the sands of time(. However, I LOVE that cute rabbit plush that is displayed with the Kewpie Dolls:)! Also, I so LOVE the display to honor your Mom with all those beautiful Dolls and Teddy Bears:)!! I so LOVE those Steiff Reindeer:)!! And that Strawberry Peach Smoothe looked delicious:)!! As for the Arc Thrift Shop, I was amazed with all those shoes!! I go to my Church Thrift Shop and I look for Steiff Teddy Bear, but I never find them. However, I saw a video where a Lady found a Steiff Teddy Bear at a Goodwill for $1.98!! Can you imagine? I also so enjoyed seeing all those Dolls at the Estate Sale:)!! The Raspberry Teddy Bear was really cute, even if it was not a collectable:)!! And at the Estate Sale @31:01 on the bottom shelf to the left of the Bridal Doll is the Snow White Madame Alexander Doll that my Late Grandparents gave me for my Birthday and I still have her:)!!! Of course, I really LOVED meeting your Dogs Dolly and Remi Lou:)!! They are so cute:)!! Thank you for this fun adventure with The Arc Thrift Shop, Dolls, Teddy Bears, yummy food, and your super sweet Dogs:)!!!

OOh, your lilac bush is amazing! Ours isn't even in bud yet as it has been cold and wet for the last month or more. It will happen though and, meantime, I get more doll time instead of working in the gardens. Ooh, if you read this before you move them, could you turn over the international doll two down from the girl you showed with the fallen in eyes? I am collecting dolls in Welsh costume - yours is in the red, white and black costume. I'd like to know who made her. I'm a gummy bear snacker. I should be fruit and vegetable snacker only as I'm up a dress size since Christmas....but just pass me over a taco please 🤣. Sweetie, we love YOU! It is wonderful to see you in beautiful clothes but we tune in because you are beautiful inside and out, no matter whether you are doing dressed to the nines or comfy casual. Happy weekend! Jenni
