Play sets found at DD's Discount


Just like to share a few items I found at one of my favorite haunts in the Houston area, DD's Discount.  It s a really good source for 1/6 scale play sets.  If you have one in your area, check it out. They're not your usual Barbie/Mattel type play sets but still they are of pretty good quality.  Although most of these items on the shelves are pink, I have found some in the past that are not.


Really nice bathroom play set




I also found a Twilight Doll there for only $3.99.


What I like about this bike is the black tires.

It's been a while since I've posted anything about my ladies so here goes!  If you've checked out my posts about the guys, you will have noticed that I do a lot of head swaps.  I do so many that I nick-named myself Dr. Dolliestein.   Whenever I see LIV dolls in a Thrift stores I purchase them because of their articulation.  I'm not a big fan of Monster High Dolls because don't like their oversize heads.  I purchased this Cleo DeNile, however, because I wanted to modify her shoes for another doll.  I just recently watched a collector on YouTube do a MH head swap with Barbie so I decided to break out Ms Cleo and try her head on a LIV body.


I removed the LIV head using hot water.  The Cleo head has glue in it so I had to gently work it off using a very small screw driver in stead of the hot water.  Now her head looks more proportioned to her new body.


I temporarily dressed her in this little pink frock I got off of  a Dollar Tree Doll.


She will make a great addition to my cast of characters!

Thanks for viewing!
