These vintage Barbie duds were a lucky score at $3 each. They’re both in great shape, though I have no idea when they were made. If I had to take a guess I’d say early ’70s based on the condition of the fabric and the styles. Ooh Stella is going to be so excited! But probably not nearly as excited as I am 
Who sews the bitty ric-rac on there? Somebody with freakishly miniature hands I think.
These enamel darlings came from a farmer’s market stall yesterday. Kettle corn, cherries, carrots and vintage brooches.

It would take some hard core precision to sew that teensy rick rack on!
That’s what I’m sayin!
Hi Kate
Love the Barbie dresses…but is 1970 really considered vintage…is it vintage if you were alive that year?
oy…not that I am referring to myself here, just lookin’ out for those that might have been born circa 196x…
Wanted to tell ya too…sharing some sunshine over your way. Why? Because I like ya! And it doesn’t matter this time how many followers…whew…no way to screw it up when it’s just a matter of saying these are the peeps I like and others probably will too. Simple as that.

Haha! I think it is considered vintage by Barbie standards. But you’re not vintage – you’re just a classy lady
Bonnie, I’m so very honored to be one of your Sunshine picks! You are too kind to me. Thank you for reading and for making me feel spesh <3
Thanks…whew…wasn’t sure about being vintage just quite yet…although vintage is so stinkin’ cool…maybe it would be a good thing for me…hmmm! You are totally welcome; you are spesh – enjoy the sunshine!
ps // love Stella’s lunch today. I love what you come up with, and your brand of creative.
Well thanks again, Bonnie! Very cool! And thx for the nice feedback on Stella’s lunch. She wasn’t as thrilled as I had hoped she would be but hey, I enjoyed making it
