Happy New Year 2023

 Wishing everyone a Happy New Year!  Planning to make more posts to this blog this year.  I am embarking on a “Dolly Sabbatical” this year meaning no new dolls and very minimal doll related purchases of clothing and accessories.  Trying very hard to catch up and play with what I already have rather than keep buying so many new things.  I am really hoping this works and it had been freeing in a way know that I am taking a break from the chase of continually hunting down new things.

Thought I would start off where I left off last time and show you the final remaining photos from last year’s Barbie Advent Calendar.  I took a break from finishing opening it last year because I came down with a cold before Christmas.  I picked it up again this year along with a new Color Magic calendar that my husband bought me.  Here are the final photos of the remaining items.  I think they did a great job at making the calendar items usable as you went along with lots of capability for Mix and Match.  This was not the case with the Color Magic Calendar which I will show you later this week.

Great items, right?  Happy to finally follow up and close out on this advent calendar.  Looking forward to using some of these pieces with my other dolls this year.
