I like the way they look in their new cover ups much better than in the nude, and don't even think twice when they are at the top of the toy bin now :) I'd love to see them when you're finished, especially if you do something creative with them.

My daughter was in the Strawber...What a great idea. My daughter was in the Strawberry Shortcake era and I would dress all her dolls in the teeny tiny clothes they came with and within minutes, I swear, they were all naked again. I finally got tired of the whole thing and sold them at a yard sale. She still is mad at me for that and that was at least 25 years ago. Anyway I am going to do that to the yard sale Barbies I have here for my sweet granddaughters. Nothing more disturbing than a well endowed naked lady lying on your carpet.vikkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06055887032215823433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1698662718995458608.post-3592721711597552692012-09-02T23:46:51.152-04:002012-09-02T23:46:51.152-04:00So smart.

It just seems... inappropriate...? lol! So I think that your idea is brilliant, and I'm going to start coloring tonight. thanks for the great (and hilarious) idea!JULIEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08884747996966435927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1698662718995458608.post-32198082516694371622012-09-02T09:09:57.993-04:002012-09-02T09:09:57.993-04:00I saw your linky on Nifty Thrifty Things.

I just had to click over because we have our own little nudist colony of Barbies going on over here. ;) I don't mind the naked state enough to cover them in Sharpie, but I did enjoy your easy solution to the problem for more modest families. The only time it wigs me out is when the naked Kens get tossed into the pile - then I step in and dress everyone IMMEDIATELY! ;) Come share your post on our comments section for this Kids Craft: Use Old Baby Socks To Make Doll Dresses: http://www.weknowstuff.us.com/we-know-stuff/2011/04/kids-craft-make-doll-dresses-out-of-old-baby-socks.html - our readers would get a chuckle out of your post! :) Happy Blogging.Denine from We Know Stuffhttp://www.weknowstuff.us.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1698662718995458608.post-34669006921528986312012-08-29T23:05:48.801-04:002012-08-29T23:05:48.801-04:00Carla- haha I like you, that's funny.

You just NEVER know what you will come across.<br /><br />This is a pretty brilliant idea! I, personally, always hated having my dolls sit around in the nude. This is a solution I did not think about. Glad it is simple with just a sharpie too.<br /><br />BTW: I was laughing not because of covering the dolls or that your opinion is way out there. Just reminded me of some funny stories I've had with other mom's about the kids neglect of their barbies all over the place. Hehehe... It REALLY does happen!<br /><br />OH and (sorry for the book here) don't apologize so much for your own opinion. You have one, stand with it. We all have them. Your fine!<br /><br />Take care,<br />DeeWishfulMehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03439623294076356092noreply@blogger.com
