Rockabilly Cowgirl Porcelain Doll Figurine:  The Destiny of Things, Story 301

A story with the cutest collection of update photos!

An Etsy buyer has a large collection of these big eyed porcelain doll figurines from around the world.  I do not know much about these, but they seem to be made for collecting from an International It's A Small World perspective.

Anyone "out there" know any more about them?

I couldn't find another like her during my search to compare pricing, nor for  information about the make or date of these types of figurines.  I could not find a cowboy brother either.

However, an Etsy buyer has a whole slew of big eyed porcelain figurines from around the world, so this little one has a huge family of sisters!

and many brothers and sister from Asia too!  How cute is that?  Can you find my, or hers or our rockabilly cowgirl in the "It's a Small World" bunch?

She's in the back in the middle of the fan between her Eskimo brother and Native American sister!

I think this is a sister who wants to find 3 sets of International dolls, like the ones above to share with her 2 sisters.  How fun is that!

And there is a collection of Christmas big eyed porcelain dolls too!

So if anyone "out there" can help her out with any information regarding these and if you know of a collector ready to sell their collection, I'm sure she'd be happy to hear about it.  I'll pass a long the message to her and let her email you back!

She asked me some collections about my collection, like how long I've been collecting and how I found my figurines.

Saying Goodbye:  I've been collecting these porcelain doll figurines for about a year now, but I was only collecting the same ones for an art project I had in mind.  Unfortunately the dolls I chose to collect are very difficult to find and I would end up buying a group of them just to get the ones I wanted, so now I've ended up with more than a handful of these frozen Charlotte penny dolls.

I can't locate the photo of the ones I collect, but they are very mini sized and about 1 inch tall with silver or gold hair.

What I Learned:

1.  As a recovering hoarder, it appears many of my art projects get out of control due to trying to find the pieces I think I'm going to need to start and complete a project.

2.  My decisions might also be negatively effected by allergies and insomnia and I now know I should not be buying things when I'm in poor health because art projects just start piling up. 

When my health becomes so problematic, like right now, I can only really dream about my art projects because it takes so much time to take care of myself.

And if you've ever had allergies, then you know how exhausting it is and with insomnia, it's a double doozey!

The bright side?  Right now, I can't do any chores due to dust and mold allergies and I can't seem to find a dish soap that doesn't burn or itch, so I do a lot of relaxing in the sun while reading, catching up on my favorite shows and movies and day dreaming and planning out my art projects.

Right now I've just started reading a really good book on allergies called, "Allergy Relief and Prevention" by Jacqueline Krohn, MD.  Maybe I'll write a review about it when I finish it.

3.  One of the reasons, why I haven't been keeping up with this blog is because at first I thought I was done with it and now I'm not sure because my allergies and insomnia are so miserable right now I'm not even sure how clearly I am thinking or feeling. 

4.  I started this posting a month ago and was trying to work on it at least once a week while working through my allergies to distract myself and decided today to just finish it no matter what.  Just so I can move on!

Thank you Etsy buyer from VintageToGoEasy for sending me an email with several photos of your fun collection!  They are so cute as "It's a Small World" collection!  I just love them!  And so glad we aren't collecting the same dolls.... less competition!
 
Thank you Etsy for the best Hoarder Rehab ever!  Who knows what what my hoard would look like now, if I hadn't started dehoarding!

Click on the shop names to visit new hoard listed daily and/or weekly: HoarderRehab with 170 items, The Destiny of Things- 169 items, VintageToGoEasy - 174 items and now JunkDrawerAndMore - 180 items!  

Maybe you'll find something to take home and share your story too!  Thanks for looking!
