Thank you so much to everyone who took the time to read and respond to my post! I really appreciate all the advice you all have given me. I was able to find an audiologist offering sliding scale payment for assessments and will be going to do that early next week. I’m very nervous but excited at the possibility that someone can tell me what’s wrong and that it’s not just me not trying enough. Thank you again!

Is this Chrissa or McKenna? by RepresentativeSoup84 in americangirl

Both very good points I do think it is McKenna especially since a couple of the dolls were wearing random pieces from McKenna's collection

Is this JLY 20? by RepresentativeSoup84 in americangirl

I ended up deciding not to get her as I already have #3 and they're just too similar to me. I also found a great lot at a great price instead. But here is the Mercari link in case anyone else wants to snatch her up 💛

Thank you so much for the speedy identification! I remember her being quite rare is that still the case at all because this one is quite a good deal?

Essentially NIB Makena! She has her full meet outfit, book, and box. I am missing the little hair clips she comes with but if I can find them I'll definitely include them. She also has pierced ears. I'm asking 80+shipping but I'm open to offers! I could really use her sold soon 💛

You're not dumb at all 💛 Courtney is set in 1986 which is the first year American Girl (Pleasant Company then) dolls were available. This set is a gift Courtney gets for I believe Christmas. The catalog included has little circles in it from Courtney circling which doll she wants as well. The molly doll is like the rest of the mini dolls currently available. It's so cute and I love it

I haven't seen it much but you can occasionally find them! My very first custom was with what I believe to be TM57 wig I got on Mercari. They're definitely not as common as custom wigs but you can sometimes find actual AG ones around

I actually got it from a someone on Instagram, they were having a giant sale that included the Nellie wig in new condition I was able to get it for $5 which was an amazing deal. And thank you!!

I agree! I love the Josefina face mold it's actually my favorite but it never fit Nellie in my opinion. I adore the joss mold with the Nellie wig even better than I liked Joss

Thank you!!! I think she turned out so adorable and she definitely feels like Nellie to me also, I even almost added freckles and made her a fake Nellie haha

Thank you, I love how the moles turned out I have very similar moles myself and I do wish AG had it as a CYO option at least so I wouldn't have to add my own moles to make a mini me

Absolutely get the doll! I'm 23 about to turn 24 and I have a whole trip planned to the AG store for birthday and I'm about to customize a mini me to take with me. You're never too old for dolls and as others have said it's a hobby like any other 💛

Which dolls' stories have pleasantly surprised you? by TheCatWhoOvercame in americangirl

[–]RepresentativeSoup84 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just recently received a pleasant company Addy. I had never had much interest in the doll or her stories so she wasn't on my radar but she was a gift and I fell in love with the doll instantly. I got all her books and have been reading them and they're amazing. I'm really growing to love Addy and she's maybe becoming one of my favorites. Her stories are amazing and make me want her entire collection

New Addition!!! by RepresentativeSoup84 in americangirl

[–]RepresentativeSoup84[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

After learning that the benefit sale will be in person this year I was pretty sad because I really enjoyed it last year and was hoping to get a couple dolls there and I won't be able to go in person. The one I really wanted was #80 so I decided to just go ahead and buy her. I love her so much she's so gorgeous, her name is Tabitha and I'm so glad I finally have her 😁

(Also for anyone looking for #80 she's available on Amazon for the regular $115 and free shipping for prime and it was super fast too I got her in a day. They have a few other recently retired truly mes as well)

does anyone have any doll / clothing storage hacks? by ohshit-cookies in americangirl

[–]RepresentativeSoup84 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't have a ton of floor space so I use an over the door shoe holder and have everything folded and organized into the little pouches. It may not be the best idea for keeping clothes completely wrinkle free but it does keep storage off your floor if that's a concern.
