Deann, these Barbie outfits rock! Your dd has the most fabulously decked out DIS Barbie house ever!!! Love the 101 Dalmations & characters in her bathroom!And, to keep it on topic... Here's a sample of the above, notice the "Minnie" dot outfit on the daughter, and the DIS green on the Mom & Dad!
I loved Barbie & created outfits outta my Mom's fabric scraps all the time. Seriously, I was like in Jr High & secretly playing with Barbie still!
I loved decorating her "house" & creating new outfits. My "house" wasn't from Mattel either, it consisted of LP jackets (for those old enough to know what I'm talking about) as walls. Then I'd cut out photos of stuff from Sears & JcPenney catalog I'd dream for my house & tape it onto the "walls". (Like a baby grand piano & fabulous furniture!)
Barbie's couch was made out of a kleenex box with stuffed fabric for cushions. Barbie's plants were scraps of silk plants shoved into toothpaste caps etc. It was so much fun creating for her! My Barbies even had a rockin' disco with John Travolta (the LP from Saturday Night Fever was the backdrop! he he!).
My Barbie never dated Ken either, he was to much of a pretty boy. She would steal our neighbor boy's G.I. Joes to date! ha, ha! Sorry, you took me back there in my little girl memories. Ahhh, to be young again....
