I've bought them the princess dresses from the Shimmer Princess series by Hasbro, so everything roughly fits. I almost have a complete set of all the princesses I want. I've also drafted a few patterns for them, so I can make them more clothes.
It's kinda fun, collecting second hand dolls instead of new in box dolls. Sure, you may miss some parts, but you can hunt them down. And cleaning up the second hand dolls is a relaxing activity. I used to prefer new in box dolls, but I've had fun this way.
There's something about cleaning up secondhand dolls and bringing them back to life that makes my heart happy. We live in a world where so many dolls just get thrown away when children are bored with them or they get a little funky gunky. It makes me sad thinking how many dolls lie eternally in landfills, never to be played with and loved again.
