    I like that your entire collection isn't on display. It let's us focus on specific dolls easier and enjoy the ones on the spotlight until the display is updated again

      Yes! That was actually a new concept to me this year, haha! Previously I wanted eeeeverything out, and it just looked so cluttered. At least they're still within hands reach, because if I had them in storage-storage, I'd forget about them!

    That was a wonderful “real” video and I loved it ❤ I am a relatively new collector who has now gone completely overboard and has a gazillion dolls to find a place for. Not to mention many more “types” of dolls then my original adult collection was going to have. It was originally just Midge to keep the collection manageable - and because she was my childhood “Barbie”doll in the sixties. Hmmm - now I think I have dozens of Midges and so many more Barbies and her family members, friends, vague acquaintances…… Then discovered silkstone collector dolls - then Mattel Creations. Oh and Monster High by the dozen, then Rainbow High - then I saw Ever After High on eBay! I have you to blame for introducing me to Gene Marshall Dolls. Thank you ❤ my first arrived on Friday (whispers - and 3 more on the way). My office will become my doll room too - so thank you for some great storage ideas once I actually sort them all out and decide who will be unboxed. I love all your videos with your honesty and your gorgeous pets. Keep them coming Kada - you really are a breath of beautifully put together fresh air.

    My doll room is also my office, so yes, it’s a struggle when I reorganize, dust, clean, etc! I totally get it. I’m mid-reorganization, too. It’s totally worth it when it’s done! It’s also helping me to pause on buying more dolls and truly appreciate what I have. I’ve actually also parted with a few.
    Excellent video as always! 💜✨💜

    Kada! SO. MANY. DOLLS!! Wow! The results are so fun! I love your different vignettes. I also love that your dolls are meant to be played with. One of my favorite things about the doll community is what each collector does with their collection. Some are precious, behind glass, never to be touched. Some live doll lives, topsy-turvy, with one leg and a wig! I love it all! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your loved ones! Will you do a video about the Twelve Days of Christmas Barbie? I would love your opinion. ❤

      I feel the same way! One of my favorite things about sharing with the doll community is seeing what each collector does with their collection...how they organize, what they prioritize, and how they choose to display them. We're all connected, yet we all have our own niche and our own idiosyncrasies.🥰

    One change I would make is to keep costume specific accessories with the relevant outfits (particularly for the Gene Marshall dolls - I’d hate to lose a shoe or an earring for them (unless I had as many Gene items as I have for Barbie!) An extra bag in the magazine holder would keep Gene’s things out of the general boxes of shoes, jewellery etc.
    Also for anyone looking… IKEA Gersby bookcases are perfect for Barbies - the shelves are fixed at about 14-15inches (i think!) and they’re not as deep (front to back) as some bookcases (about 9inches - which allows 2 or 3 rows of dolls but doesn’t take up a huge amount of floor space.) they’re only 24 inches wide so not as wobbly as wider units and they’re also cheaper (even given that they’re narrower) than most of IKEAs other bookcases. (PS I don’t have shares in IKEA! I just found these to be good shelves for Barbies! My Gene dolls stand on the top with no worry about the height.)

    My doll room is also my office too ! And I just got done sort of organizing the room again. It's a continuous chore. But yea, I want it to be my happy place, cause I have to work in there. As happy as one can be while working of course. I'm hoping to separate the rooms some day, and or retire. But for now, they're the same room. Part of my dolls are in my bedroom, but if I didn't have my work area in the doll room, I could have all my dolls in there.

      @kadawalden right ? I'm so blessed I've been able to work from home for 20 years. And it does help to have dolls around me. If I had a separate room, I would bring a couple dolls into my office every day. I put a different one on my desk every day now, just to enjoy it, then it also keeps my dolls from getting dusty, if I'm touching & moving them once in a while.

      I agree with Darling on that. Those pieces are by pop artist Stephen Chambers but I don’t know how he created them. I like to think it’s his own graphic design but… 🤷‍♀️
