Garage Sale "find"

Hi Guys! Today, Grandma, Mama, and I went garage saling. I came across an Alexander Girlz doll from 2007. I knew it was an Alexander Girlz because it looks like Maddie but had different hair and eye color. I got more than just the doll but I'll show you all that later. ; )

She's a total fixer-upper but I'm willing to do it. :) Her legs and arms are surprisingly tight compared to her appearance. Her hair has been very badly cut and I really need to find a wig on THIS website.

I really like the dress she came with. I don't know what brand it is though. :)

I don't know how Maddie with take this. She's been bugging me since I got her about getting a new wig. ;) She'll freak if she finds out I'm rewigging this doll!

I will do an update when we rewig her so you guys won't miss it. :)

Final thing to say, I am planning on getting my new blog up before Christmas. I really working on ideas so I don't bore you for the first few months. ;) I've decided to reveal one of the five dolls participating...........KENDALL MATTHEWS will be one of five in our new blog!

( : Thank You : )

Madame Alexander Doll Review 18"

Good Evening! Mickey's Girl here to give you my awaited review on my Madame Alexander Doll!


My Madame Alexander or "Alexander Girlz" is sold currently at Costco for $25.99 but with tax adds up to around $30.00. So I thought I should do a product review on her.

!NUDE DOLL PHOTOS AHEAD!

To start I would like to say that Alexander Girlz are 181/2" inches not 18".

She does have a vinyl chest which makes her appear to look better in shirts and dresses. Her body however, in my opinion, is not stuffed as needed. Due to that, AG or Gotz doll's pants and skirts might fall off her behind or may be loose. Shirts, by AG etc. fit her quite well and look better due to vinyl chest like I said.

 Profile shot

Her head goes up, down, and side to side which, I got really excited about because I love doing Photography! One of her eyes has a tendency to try and close more than the other which is making me frusterated! :) Her face is absolutley beautiful.

Another thing I would like to point out is that her legs have worn out more in a week than my AG doll has in a year! I got Maddie a week ago and got Julie around this time last year and Julie has held up better. This is a disadvantage because I am not rough with my dolls that it would be like that.

(Excuse the off center photo of Julie)

Also if you happened to see that little bit of wavyness in Maddie's hair, that happened when I got her because she had two braids in her hair. I have soaked her wavy hair a bit and put in under some heavy books so I'm hoping that will help it. She kind of looks like Hermione Granger. : D

Since were on the topic of her hair, I would like to point out that Alexander Girlz hair is rooted. I personally do not like rooted hair compared to one with wigs (AG/Gotz). I have had bad experience with rooted hair but I must say that Maddie's hair is very high quality compared to other dolls with rooted hair. Now compared to AG dolls I would say that theirs no competition, AG wins.

Thats all right now that I could tell you! Tomorrow I'll be doing a comparison of Alexander Girlz against AG dolls. I'll try and get it up there but I may not due to schoolwork and hometeam at our church.

Thanks anyway! BYE

and

Maddie

Maddie is here!

Hi everyone! This is very excited Mickey's Girl here! My Mom told me we could go to Costco today because she needed to pick some things up also and I got the doll! I would have taken a picture of her in the box but I was so excited I opened her in the car! I'll be doing a product review on her later or tomorrow but for now this is Maddie!

Now her hair I know is frizzy and I'll explain that "issue" when I do her review. She will be coming out with her own blog with one of my other dolls. (Most likely Julie or Ginny) I'll tell you when were gonna start that. Trust me we'll probably do it tonight. ;)

I have decided that her name will be Maddie short for Madeline. She's a major tomboy with a lot of sarcasm.....and that's an understatement! I could already tell she wasn't loving the dress or all of the photos. (Trust me you ain't seeing even a forth of the pictures I took!)

Madame Alexander Doll is coming!! (and me talking to much)

Good evening everyone! It's Mickey's Girl!

So I had a few eBay sales and I got enough money to buy the Madame Alexander doll that they sell at Costco. If you want to check out the one I'm getting then click HERE . But I have a picture if your not that interested.

So I'm thinking of a name. I'll probably end up with Maddie short for Madison but I also like Margeret and maybe call her Maggie? But then I thought that it sounded like Maggie from Jane Austen and Unicorns......... What do you think? (Please comment or email me at southerndolls@gmail.com )
