My love of anything having to do with dolls and dollhouses started long before I became a serious doll collector. As children, dolls are our playmates, our best friends, and (in the dark of the night) sometimes our protectors. This web page is a place for me to share with other doll lovers of all ages, the dolls I have spent my whole life collecting. Make sure to click the "Older Posts" button at the bottom of the page in order to see the whole collection.

Ball and Joint Dolls


I have only recently discovered Asian ball and joint dolls that you create yourself by ordering all the parts separately. The eyes, the wig, the clothes, the face and body--you can choose for your doll to look any way you want. Their jointed bodies allow them to be posed in almost any position a real person could. These dolls can be quite pricey but for a serious collector they are a must. Just a warning, one is never enough.

I searched for over ten years to find a boy doll I liked. I was extremely excited when I stumbled across ball and joint dolls and found this one. The elf prince is called Aiden His true love is named Aurelia. I only meant to buy the one boy doll and that was it. Well, like I said, you can't stop at just one.

I've included a link to a couple ball and joint doll websites for those who are interested in finding out more about these fabulous dolls.
