Christmas tree 2015

 Perched at the top of my tree is my vintage 20 year old Barbie doll as the Christmas tree fairy / angel

 

The white fairy sets the tone for the tree and for the last couple of years I have decorated my tree all silver and white.  I think it works well.  BUT!  It is not my favourite Christmas tree.  My favourite tree is my twin sister Enid's tree.  Enid is of LPA Rebuild and you can see more pics of her tree over there.

 

 In the meantime my sister Kate sent me this photo of my tree and Enid's side by side.

How different are these for identical twins?!

 

What style do you decorate your tree? 

Bunch o' Barbies!

Yesterday I crawled up into my parents attic and took down a box of Barbie dolls I stashed away approx. 15/20 years ago.

There are 11 in total, some of them are collectors or limited edition.  I apologise in advance for the quality of the photos, it was difficult to take pics with the plastic of the box reflecting.  I probably should take better ones in daylight.

I am selling these as a job lot - €200 if the buyer collects from me in Dublin, or €200 plus p&p if the buyer wants it posted.

Do you know any Barbie collectors?!  

Please share!

Edit.

My mother rang me today to say my dad had found 3 more boxes stashed away. There are 34 boxed barbies in total!

I will get some photos of the others!
