Christmas Sweaters and Coats, Vests and Hat!

Hey Gang!

So this time of year besides dolls, there are a lot of doll size items out there
that you can find for your dolls!  Some are the perfect scale for 1/6 dolls
and some are a little small or large for these doll.  But if you are like me,
you will make it work for you dolls!

First up, Christmas sweaters ornaments!

I love Christmas sweaters. They are the easiest to find and one of the most popular
items out there.  I got mine at Target!   This is my third year and Target seem to do
them each year. I didn't not get all of the offering for this year but I got what was there. 
In past years that have had a larger stock of them.  This year there weren't as much
there and I was luck to get what I have!


Here is what I got.  Doll photos in them to follow.

This years selection was better than other years And they didn't

go on sale before Christmas this year. Boo!

Barbie sweaters normally cost more than the $3.00 for these sweater.

A lot more glue gun glue in the decorations of these sweaters but

still nice! That is one thing you look for.  You don't want sweaters that

are glued together and not sewn.  Things glues on is OK but you

don't want them all glue.

Some of the decoration are missing from this one  because it was glued but I can add replacements!

There was also a Jacket and hat this year! Thanks to dbg of BDE I found out

that there was a hat to match the jacket. This was new! I like the set. 

I don't like the wooden buttons on them. They give it more of a toy store look to

the items.  The hat is large.  Too large for most dolls.  It will have to be altered.

The buttons will have to be replace maybe with something black.

Michael's

Michael had jackets, hats and vest.  I just purchased the jackets and vest. The hats were

large like the one at Target...too big. 

I have seen many of these on Facebook so I knew what they had to offer.

The beige and plaid jackets are reversed one has the plaid vest and the other
has the beige suede vest.

What I do find in looking at ornament sweaters and other ornament 

that can be used for clothes is that some are made larger than others. 

So, look through them! Note that the green and white Target sweater is smaller 

than the other sweaters. (better for small dolls and children) The vest  from 

Micheal's will work for Ken and IT males. It is harder to find coats and these were a 

great purchase! I did get them on sale.  The were only 30 cents less that the Target

 $3 sweaters.Over all!  I like what I got and will show them on dolls soon!

OK, Thanks For Looking!







Xia'-From Punk to Parisian !

After seeing Vanessa post of a male sweater and a hat on
Fashion Dolls at Van’s Doll Treasures I tried my hand
at the hat.

I made it a little small. I will probably do it again a bit larger.
The combination of this hat and this top from the dollar store
takes Xia’ in a new direction. She has gone from Xia’
street punk/graffiti artist to Xia’ art student with Parisian style.
