Cute / Creepy

A little place to talk about the dolls I encounter in the wild && my own growing collection. Range from Barbies & American Girls to Composition & Porcelain Dolls. If you do not like dolls, don't follow. I personally don't find dolls creepy-- I think they're pieces of art & survivors of history.

bit of an opinion here but if someone likes something that makes them happy please don’t be mean about it

Little baby 💕 Closest thing I have to a reborn baby right now but I’m making heart eyes at some monster reborns 😍

Anyone know anything about a Garfield clown?

Instead of pie, he’ll throw lasagna in your face.

Very old cloth doll. Possibly haunted. Definitely wants a hug.

Gerber Baby,” one of our resident dolls! Handcrafted && bought (most likely) in the 90’s for $25 at a craft fair 💕 

My mom, who did ceramics in the 90s, used to barter with a woman who made these dolls! More to come of these guys (like a bunch more)

This is one of my newest pieces, Helen, and we’ve actually had a few strange occurrences since she’s arrived-- nothing malevolent!  She’s a composition doll head and I got her from an antique store near my house. I don’t know much about her, but was told by someone on instagram that she looks like a Patsy / Patsy Ann model. 

(I also know the antique store I bought her from regularly takes apart dolls which makes me wonder if she had a body... if that’s the case, I can understand why she’s a bit upset.)

Not sure if this little girl has been shared on here yet but this little lady is a Frozen Charlotte, most likely from the 1930′s! I’m really curious the original position of her arms but that is a mystery I’ll never know– though it doesn’t seem like they went straight to her sides 🧐 I also think she’s gotten a bit of a repaint at some point... but as always– I could be wrong! If you know anything about this model, please share!

Doll from Haiti! I picked up this lovely lady when I was 12, I think (summer after sixth grade). We were on a cruise that stopped in Haiti. Back then, there was this huge market that had a good deal of crafts. There was a large assortment of these dolls, and I absolutely loved this one. 

Her head is either ceramic or porcelain to my knowledge, and the rest of her is fabric. To the best of my knowledge, she is handcrafted.

I feel as if he’s judging me. I love him.

This is one of my first dolls (and by that I mean this doll was ready for my the year before I was born.)

My grandmother is one of the main reasons I am so obsessed with dolls– she was a big collector. And before I was born, before she knew I was a girl, she bought me this Bitty Baby in 1996. When asking my mom about this, she was quoted saying, “And God help us if you weren’t a girl.”

I am under the belief my grandmother definitely willed me into existence.
