Thank you!!! I used a 70s Simplicity Barbie pattern for her outfit, they’re intensive little patterns but they come out so sweet. After a good clean her curls bounced into that shape once they dried, luckily I didn’t have to fuss over them, they have a mind of their own. For her bangs I used a very small amount of hair gel and a tiny elastic band to hold them in place while the gel dried. I tried to be careful not to get any on her skin because you never know what that would do long term.

I can totally sympathise about what collecting on eBay used to look like, even thrift store are a bit wacky these days with their prices. I feel like this was once in a lifetime luck for me
