I was supposed to pay for the groceries yesterday, but since Mum is in the process of quitting smoking and has gone over a week without a cigarette, my Dad paid. So Mum said I could have £20 to spend on my dollshouse stuff.

And spend I did!

Out of that money I got:

some peewee clear marbles - I only wanted one to make a crystal ball for my dollshouse, but they came in a pack of 100 and weren't that expensive - so I'll probably make a few extra as gifts and give the other marbles to Mum to put in a vase of dried flowers or something.

some little wooden crates - It was a set of three and I need one for the September group swap so that leaves me with two to use in my own house.

some 1:12th scale paper plates - I've tried making my own but I just can't get them neat enough.

3 flocked teddy bears for the nursery

and the three most beautiful dolls! I'll probably redress them into less ornate garments though!





The baby was only 70p!! Plus something like 99p postage - I really wanted a boy baby but at that price I couldn't refuse - plus I could always modify it into a boy - trim the hair and change the clothes etc.



The little girl was 95p plus 99p postage and I already have an idea in mind for her outfit - if I can unstitch the original outfit without ruining it.



The lady was my most expensive purchase at £2.95 plus £1.95 postage but still not a bad price, especially since she has a most beautiful face and most the cheaper price range dolls have horrible faces.
