Dunno if this counts as a
thrifty find or a rescue or what...but I was at my local consignment
store and found this beautiful doll for only three dollars! She
has rooted auburn hair with some wave to it, large light green eyes that
do not close, and a slim 18" body with a vinyl shoulder plate.
When I
took off her clothes (a rainbow plaid jumpsuit and beret) I discovered
her body tags. She is a Journey Girls doll!
Her
hair came as a high ponytail stuffed into the beret, but I took it down
and brushed out quite a bit of tangles. She also had some minor marks
and scuffs on her vinyl face and limbs, but most came off after gentle
scrubbing with a warm wet washcloth, to my surprise.
There is still a
tiny trace of pink lipstick in the corner of her mouth and something
white on her left arm, but in my opinion, she cleaned up quite nicely. I
was not able to take before photos, I'm sorry. She is Journey Girl Kelsey,
but I plan to call this doll Rachel.
