This is my new baby Trinket. She is eight weeks old and as you can see lacks her front right paw. Her little nub has an elbow joint and approximately two little toe beans. She hops a little when walking and is slightly clumsy in the litter box but is quite capable of getting around :)
I was going to take the time to take better pictures but I’m overwhelmed at the sheer quantity of stuff that was in this bin.
Corinne and Gwynn were at the top of my wishlist as a pipe dream I someday hoped to score a Marketplace listing of because they are unreasonably expensive on eBay, and that day came.
We drove an hour into the country and paid $150 for all this stuff and I’m flabbergasted. I used Google image search to help sort the outfits. We picked this up two weeks ago, but that was three days before moving into our new house, so I’m just now getting around to unpacking in my new doll room :D
A fair amount of the stuff wasn’t AG but many of the outfits are handmade so they’re still wonderful :)
Before anyone asks, yes I know there could be lead in the paint. I have done zero sanding to make it airborne and have been making sure to wash my hands after. It literally comes off just peeling with fingernails.
This house was built in 1894 and I’ve been so eager to learn everything I can about its history. Naturally this means I’ve started peeling back the layers before finishing unpacking.
Slides 1 and 3: The wood in the dining room has been painted several times and finally gel stained on top to take it back to a “wood” look.
Slide 2: Dug an existing scratch in the bathroom wall a little deeper to find previous paint colors. This confirmed my suspicion that the horrible amount of texture on the wall was very recent as there’s only one coat of paint over it. I wonder if I dig deep enough I might find wallpaper in some of the rooms?
Slide 4: example of some of the remaining original hardware caked in paint
Slide 5: the other part of the railing, which I also peeled last night😂
