I believe it is harmonydollclub.com.

When I picked her up at the thrift store, of course, I was planning on donating her or giving her away, BUT as usual I am now struggling. After I work on a doll like this it's so hard to let her go!! That's why I didn't give her a name, I though that would keep me from getting attached. HA! I should have known better. I need to make a decision, but not today right?Brenda and Sophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13787440933135569659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11272804.post-19954341403830825812017-04-20T14:02:59.664-07:002017-04-20T14:02:59.664-07:00Thanks Flo, I really enjoyed seeing those curls tu...Thanks Flo, I really enjoyed seeing those curls turn out so nice.

This doll I used a peach color, fuchsia and off white mixed together. Before I painted the new color on her lips I used a magic eraser to remove some of the lip color because it was SO dark. I have added color to older dolls, like my Kirsten. Her color was all gone. I used a much lighter color of pink on her lips. For her cheeks I got some of the paint on my finger and dabbed it on a paper towel. Then I patted the color on her cheek and rubbed it in. The nice thing about acrylics is they can be wiped off with water over and over until you get a look you are happy with. Some people use a finishing coat to keep the color from rubbing off, but I never have. <br />Brenda and Sophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13787440933135569659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11272804.post-28081963432658637802017-04-20T05:33:47.691-07:002017-04-20T05:33:47.691-07:00*From Julie's doll mom Sharry:*

She is an AG, PC Samantha that had a zip tie replacing her neck strings. Other than that, she was in great condition! I was ecstatic!!!! I found an OG Sydney Lee doll in perfect condition fully dressed with shoes. The only thing missing, was her book. I also found, for $1.99, a Laura Ashley doll. It took me 8 hours to brush out her tangled hair, but it was worth it. I have found a My Life As doll for about $1.99. Eighteen inch dolls are hard to come by in my thrifty stores. I have found a few that I passed on (OG with such tight limbs that they couldn't stand or sit and My life dolls that had too loose limbs). Most dolls I find are baby dolls, Barbies, and Disney Princess dolls. I love the new lip color you put on your doll. Could you tell us about the process and what kind of paint you use?Linda Reynoldshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10866954728284100577noreply@blogger.com
