Karla, Did you say 1,800? You meant 180, right? Well, your room sounds wonderful, and I know you will have a great time playing in there. Your husband sounds like a nice guy to do that for you. So many dolls, not enough time, lol. Have fun! Robin Karla towers@eticomm.net wrote:Hi All, I am just catching up now on all the new messages. My Husband took a week's vacation to "fix" my Barbie and Candi areas in my Family Room which is downstairs. I know I wrote a little bit about this last week. Anyway, we started last Sunday and I am still down there today - now that everything is out of the way but my dolls I actually got a good look at all the dolls I have and am beginning to think I am going crazy!!! My husband put up shelves on every wall - I have the sofa in the middle so it didn't take up any extra space and now I am concerned that I am still not going to have enough room. I have been collecting dolls for about 18 years and those were porcelain and a Barbie here and there although I grew up with Barbie. Then I made porcelains dolls for about 7 years and was starting to get into Candi. I have purchased a "gazillion" play dolls and I have fashion avenue outfits and other clothes sets that look like they are going to take up half the room. I have an extra room off the Family Room and I had all my things in there for when I made dolls - We had to clear out all that (what a nightmare) and now I am literally "stocking" the shelves in there with Candi and Barbie play dolls - the idea being that when this all came together I would then be able to play, LOL, dress the dolls in all these gorgeous outfits, etc. The room looks like a store just fully stocked!! I feel extremely overloaded. Please write and tell me that yes, people do collect as many as 1,800 dolls - either you or friends or anyone. Well, I am off to the doll rooms. Thanks,Karla
