I was so touched when you said that you finally feel able to do doll shows again since your mother died in 2020. Thanks for sharing about that. I'm so happy for you. Thanks for what you do - you are gifted in this work.

[@RachelHoffmanDolls]

Thank you so much for your kind words and understanding. Losing a loved one is never easy, especially someone as influential as a parent. Being able to find joy and continue the legacy in doll shows is a testament to the healing power of time and the support of a wonderful community like this. Your encouragement and appreciation mean the world. Let's continue to share our love for dolls and the stories that bind us. 💕🎀🌟

That was fun thanks very much 💗😊. I'm so glad that you rescued that poor doll from the trash. I knew the Bild Lily story though I had never before seen her on video. Really looking forward to her follow up. Thanks again for taking us around the doll show. 💗😊

[@divinemischief4655]

That was so much fun. I'm not a doll collector, but I do have a small collection of dolls. I love the world of dolls and seeing collectors showing us their collections, it's wonderful. Also, thank you Rachel for sharing your journey through your grief. Having lost my sister and then my mother three years later, I find it validating and helpful. It's also somewhat reassuring. Grief can be so isolating, but hearing others experiences brings some kind of comfort, well it does for me Love the video so many amazing dolls and toys ❤

[@RachelHoffmanDolls]

Thank you for taking the time to share your feelings and experiences. It's wonderful to know that you enjoy the doll world even if you don't consider yourself a traditional collector. Dolls have a unique way of captivating people, regardless of the size of their collection. Losing loved ones, especially those close to our hearts, is profoundly challenging. Grief is a journey, and each person navigates it differently. Sharing and hearing stories of grief, like yours and Rachel's, can indeed be therapeutic and remind us that we're not alone in our feelings. Your openness and candor are truly appreciated, and I'm glad that hearing others' experiences brings some comfort to you. Thank you for being a part of this community and for embracing the world of dolls and their stories. Sending you warmth, understanding, and love. ❤️🎀🌟

I wish we had doll shows like this where I'm at. You need compression stockings for longstanding days like this! Love your eyebrows Rachel! You're serving vintage #1 realness =)

Thanks so much for sharing the Doll show! You have reignited my joy of doll collecting. I lost interest for awhile after my husband died because he was my biggest supporter.

[@joymontague251]

Love that Saucy Walker. I saw her in your other video. I have the bigger one and found mine at a second hand store. Went to a wonderful doll show here in Northern California before Christmas. I think we need a spring one too. We only have three real seasons here and sometimes it is hard to tell one from another because the plants even get confused. I know what you mean about reclaiming yourself after your mom passed. My mom and I and my son's other Grandma and my Grandmas too were all close and they are all gone and I feel very alone now.

RacheI and Christopher! I SO wanted to come; would have been an easy 12 hr drive and I could have met you both and visited my brother HOWEVER, I had to attend FitnessFest on the same weekend in Phoenix. Planned and paid for that months before. I teach Aqua Fitness and was doing some certification updates. I will get over the mountain eventually. Would love to visit and/or attend another doll show. Thanks for taking this video. I probably saved a LOT OF MONEY by not going so that means that I can spend that much more in the future ;0). I collect a bunch of different dolls. Always got a Raggedy Ann every Christmas when I was little so appreciate your Mom's collection. I've also purchased Robert Tonner dolls from you guys as well as other people. I am a big collector of American Dolls so understand your brother's obsession completely AND I love Barbie and collect her; always have. My two girls do NOT care for dolls nor do my boys. My husband teases me that they are "creepy" as so many people do but they mean so much to me as do your videos. You are both a delight. Thanks for YET AGAIN making my day. Lynn

Thank you for your wonderful comment, I enjoyed reading it!! We appreciate you and hope to see you someday!

[@c.w.2000]

I don't think I've seen a Bild Lilli in a video before, so that was interesting. She really looks like the first Barbie. I see a similarity between Ruth Handler and Steve Jobs: steal ideas from other companies, refine the idea, and make it more popular.

[@PhoenyxAshe]

Hi! I'm the one who told you it was your fault I was there... and I'm so glad I went! By the time I got home to Kiowa I was dead tired, but it was so worth it to go. So many lovely things at the show. Part of me wishes I'd had a bigger budget for one of the Tonners, but this was a bit of a last minute thing - next time I will have had time to prepare for it. I've been wanting a Tonner for a while... so you will be seeing me again. In the meantime, I'm enjoying my Delilah Noir. In fact, while I was watching this video, I was cutting out pieces for an outfit for her... one with sort of a Faery-punk sort of vibe. Since I had a random fat quarter in my bag, she made the drive home in a leopard print sarong, but I figured she deserved a few actually sewn outfits of her own. In addition to the Faery-punk, I also have that prior leopard print cotton halfway to being a strapless cocktail dress (with bolero jacket... if I can make the decision between faux fur or pleather. Opinions?) After that, shoes. Her feet won't manage heels well, I think, but I've got an idea for low boots...

[@RachelHoffmanDolls]

So glad to meet you in person!! Looking forward to hearing more about your project. Thank you for your purchase!
