SHOW & TELL:
Everyone received some great dolls this Christmas, whether they were gifts from other's or gifts to themselves...
the dolls were beautiful! I didn't take notes, so hopefully I am not mistaken here and hopefully I'm not leaving anything out.

Sylvia had a lovely Barbie she'd done a makeover on (new permed hairdo) and gown that she
got from Elizabeth's free items from the last meeting, she also had a NRFB 80's Theresa doll.

Carol (Kathy's sister) has just joined the group (she came to our Christmas Dinner).
She showed the new Irish Barbie --more beautiful in person--a few of us now want that doll in our collections!

Kathy had a few dolls to share with us...the 1996 "Escada" Barbie in the black and pink gown,
a couple of Bob Mackie dolls: "Sterling Silver Rose" and I think, "Ruby Radiance".

Debbie shared a really cute Kelly Christmas set of 5 dolls and accessories, a NRFB 80's JukeBox set
and an interesting book with fashion from a series called, "Barbie Around The World". She brought just one of many in this series.
She also brought the new (very hunky) Fashion Fever Ken doll (he's tall!) and the new Fashion Fever Barbie (she's shorter!).

Gladys also brought a Playground themed Kelly set of 5 dolls and accessories.

Elizabeth shared a couple of the new 6" Kelly dolls. These a cute, chunky dolls that I think are still only available in the U.S.
She also introduced the group to some non-Barbie dolls, a Tonner "Tiny Kitty" and a couple of Bleeding Edge "Princess Ai" dolls.

Pauline shared with us her coveted Barbie Collectibles Club Exclusive: AA Airline Stewardess Silkstone...just beautiful!
She also brought an Integrity Toys W Club Exclusive Giftset of two gorgeous Fashion Royalty dolls: Kyori and Natalia.

Megan shared a few new dolls with us, the beautiful "Stolen Moments" Silkstone Barbie,
the #5 AA Lingerie Silkstone Barbie, the Kawanza Barbie and two of the smaller bodies/bigger heads
Cheerleading Barbies. Somebody also shared the Oktoberfest Barbie.
