Croydon doll show

Sunday, September 21st, 2008

I went to the Croydon Doll Show on Saturday with my friends, Simone and Aloha. We had heard about this doll show from a lady we had met at the last doll show we went to, and were interested to see what would be for sale at this one. Also, it was a good time for us to catch up and have a dolly meet.

The doll show itself wasn’t a big one, and the dealers mainly sold porcelain and bisque dolls. There were also some dress making materials for sale, and also doll making materials like eyes, lashes, etc. We each bought a few dollhouse miniatures, and then went to have lunch at the nearby restaurant.

We had our dolls on the table while waiting for our food to arrive, and during that time, there were different ladies coming up to our table to ask about our dolls (and if we made them), or just to comment how lovely they were. There was this one lady who was so interested in them, she exchanged email addresses with me, and asked that I write to her to give her some advice on how to buy one! I’ve since written to her by email, so hopefully she will find it useful and get her own bjd soon. ^_^
