Fawn sends in photos of a thrifty find Josefina that she rescued!
******
"I was recently lucky enough to find AG doll Josefina at Goodwill."
Pleasant Company is marked on the back of her neck, but her body tag says "Made in China for American Girl 2008".

"She was naked and dirty, but her soft body was very clean with no smells.
Her hair was matted and frizzy. She cost $5.00. I snatched her up,
brought her home, gave her a magic eraser bath, and brushed out her hair. I
cut off about 2" of frizz then braided it."

"She looks beautiful. Since
I am a Grammy on a budget, I never imagined I would own an AG doll. I
am thrilled and very pleased with the way she cleaned up."

"Her shirt is a
re purposed preemie baby gown. Her pink jeans are from Nancy's Notions
and her shoes are Springfield. I am delighted to have my own AG doll."
