Welcome to my website. First, I'll give you a little background. Our grandmother was an avid doll
collector throughout the 1990's. During that period she acquired a large number of dolls, in all shapes, sizes and styles.
For most of the dolls, the box was opened for a quick peek, resealed and then stored in her house and left untouched until
now. She has decided it is time to start letting go of some of her wonderful collection. There are a lot of dolls and we've
only just begun to scratch the surface! It has been great fun seeing the many different kinds she has, and we look forward
to discovering the others . We describe and photograph them to the best of our ability. And the art of building a website
has been an adventure all on its own. Bear with us as we try to figure this out, I'm sure as time passes there will be great
improvement! Please check back often, this is a work in constant progress. With the holidays coming up, I am trying to
list as much as possible. I will give detailed descriptions of the large dolls as time permits. There will usually be only
one photo of each doll on the website- but, if you click on that photo you will automatically be redirected
to Photobucket where you will find anywhere from 3 to 15 photos of each doll. You can click on those photos
to enlarge them. For now, this is the easiest way for me to do this, and the only way that I know. With time and
experience I expect my computer skills to improve, so please check back often to witness the evolution
of what will eventually be a very large doll website. I will add things daily. Thank you for visiting! And feel free to look at the other photos listed under mariesdollsandchristmas in Photobucket. I usually post the doll pictures
there before I put them here. Questions? Please email me.
