Nostalgia anyone? - 50 years of Barbie video

This video makes me want to run out and buy a Barbie (which I guess is the idea!) brings back memories, I had that 1980s three story house with the yellow lift/elevator ^-^!

  2. An awesome video! Who would've guessed that Barbie would have such lasting power. I loved following her through the decades -- drive-in theatres, anyone? I hope I look that good when I'm 50! :D

  4. Love it--too fun!! However, I'm not sure about the new barbies out in stores. Something is up with the face and I can't quite put my finger on it. Recently, I made a trip to the thrift store and found bags of old barbies that needed rescuing. So now the fun of dressing them all--yay!

  5. I used to be an avid Barbie collector but then I defected to the Japanese side ^-^!
    I'm still fond of Barbie though and my little girl has a ton of 'em!
    I love rescuing old and abandoned dollies too ^-^!

  6. I can't teach myself how to crochet, never mind anyone else! I'm determined though, to stick at it, just because it's difficult to do doesn't mean I should quit! (Or swear a lot.)

  7. Don't worry Kim, I'm sure you'll master it in the end. I haven't started yet but bought an amigurumi book and crochet hook at the weekend so watch this space! ^-^!

  8. Barbie has played a huge role in millions of people's lives as they were growing up, including mine
