Spring action waist that allowed her to swing a bat or a golf club. 

Sports-oriented type of dolls. 

Skye and Dusty were prone to melting. As I found out when I 

tried to take off Skye's original pink swimsuit.  The swim suit was open at the seam and also 

missing it's daisy logo.  Got the swimsuit off without any further damage to the swimsuit or Skye.

The blue swimsuit belongs to Dusty.  It was also open at the seam, but I was able to quickly

stitch it closed before shooting the photo.  The logo is missing from the blue swimsuit. 

I believe the red sandals are original. 

E-Bay find.

THE STORY OF ROSE PETAL-PLACE

Long ago on a

Day in May

A young girl 

Had to go away 

And leave her 

Lovely garden fair 

With no one to tend it 

No one to care.

So the child cried 

And her teardrops fell

It was as though 

They cast a spell.

For they touch the petals 

Of a rose, 

And magically 

So the story goes 

The rose and others 

Came alive.

Now it's here they live

And here they thrive. 

In Rose-Petal Place...

There's a garden of

Love to share.

Princess Leia Organa

Made in Hong Kong 

Original outfit with stockings and belt, missing shoes. 

Hair was undone, so I put it into two pony tails. 

Actress Carrie Fisher played Princess Leia in the movie Star Wars. 

Thrift Store find. 

When I picked her up at the Thrift Store yesterday, I thought she was 

one of the Princess Leia dolls from the 1990's. 

It wasn't till I took her out of the plastic bag and looked at her markings 

that I realized she was a vintage Princess Leia from the 70's.
