Grand Intentions, or, I took photos for a reason and then didn't use them. I have lots of senior moments.

Remember the days when You were YOUNG...like pre-teen, and you all piled into a friends house and had an impromptu lunch...probably sandwiches and tomato soup...but it wasn't planned, and it was great.
Piles of kids clothes in the livingroom.

Chelsea is hostess and next to her Auntie Chris.

Sister Barbie, friend Mellissa, Skipper and Scooter (cousins).
Not enough photos for a story---but still cute....don't know what I was thinking?

Portrait unnamed?
Random photo of my early TNT...don't know if I have shown her here before or not. I have quite a few pieces of clothes that were for TNT's...and I paired the vintage jeans with a new shirt..FAB! I think she is. She's lost a click in one leg, but that's it and is in very good condition otherwise.

I also worked on some new dolls. This is Rainbow...she has the crazy cheetah head on the side, but she is cute and well, we do have all kinds in my doll world and she is different.

Another new guy, Walter, or Walt. He has clicks, but will set him aside for maybe a new body. Bodies and faces from the past leave a lot to be desired, but he isn't too bad. Besides, the female to male ratio is definitely out of whack!

This handsome dude has been named Mark---reminds me of someone from high school. He's one of the shorter GIJoes, so he will have have to find a short girl...lol. He may need a toe trim...as his feet are huge. otherwise, he is in excellent condition and fully articulated. Upside he will fit short slacks with the short legs.

I named the BTS doll on the left---BOWIE..someone messed with his hair for sure, then I added, and I may fool around with it more. This is the third one of the group I've found in his original suit for under $3.00 each. Rainbow, on the right, was new Extra doll and she will be fun to dress Hippie style...!

This gal is going to be Cherilyn...been picking up these Extra dolls for under $12.00 here and there...which is cheaper than ordering MTMoves for bodies. But, I get them home and get charmed by their faces, not to mention the crazy clothes and long hair.
Cherilyn, will be repainted to CHER...I don't think it will take much, maybe some cheek shadow, and eyes/ deep dark red/brown lipstick. She will also have a hippie vibe, which will be a nice addition to my doll neighborhood. I can't wait to get her into some yellow bell bottoms!
Some are duplicates, mostly because there is a mjor hair/ or makeup difference.
Left to Right back row-Whitney, Kathryn, Shyla.

Opal, who is Colette/Callie's nemesis cousin.
 |

Of course, Colette and her mom, Ella. Both Divas and lots of fun to work with.
Added in My Black history post for the Billie Holliday special was Jennifer---loosely disguised as a Chicago local girl made really good in the music world.
She definitely put Colette's nose out of joint, which maybe good for future story fodder.

Jennifer....hmmm-mmmh! We will have to see more of her!
I have a few more dolls that are in the transition pile, needing bodies or may be leaving. I would love to find older AA's, or even repro's, and AA guys are even harder!
That's all that was still lingering in my photos---and now they are neatly filed away and used.
