Title: Found 5 Dream Beauties at the thrift store!
Post by: Shy Violet on February 10, 2020, 06:05:38 PM: So I haven't had any luck at all the past year with thrift stores and then I swung in the other day while my son was at a birthday party and found 5 Dream Beauties!!!!!! I couldn't believe it! What luck! They are all in great condition too except the pink one has some yellowing around her eyes. Not sure if her childhood owner tried to put make up on her or something. Anyway, I never thought I cared for Dream Beauties but they are stunning in person and now I want them all! They seem to all be in good shape, here they are after their spa day. :hearts:

That's amazing! I was so stoked when I found one dream beauty at a thrift. But 5! That's like five times better

Post by: Shy Violet on February 10, 2020, 11:13:35 PM: Thank you everyone! I am so beyond thrilled. This was in my top 2 best finds ever. I did find a pink sparkly one years ago but I didn't know what she was and left her. I'll be keeping my eye out for more now.

Post by: nessa16 on February 13, 2020, 11:00:24 AM: Wow, that's awesome luck! Did they come with those curls or did you do them? I once found one for $1 at a thrift store but her hair is much messier. Congrats!

Haha, thanks! They did turn out very nice. I get pretty lazy and don't get around to cleaning up every pony that I find but these ladies were too pretty to wait.

ETA: just saw your collection in the other thread, yours are stunning too! You're so lucky to have them all.

Thank you! I did their hair myself. They were in pretty good shape but their hair was a mess so a spa day was in order.

Thank you! Unfortunately their hair has suffered from long years of storage, so none of them look as stylish as your girls do :)

I believe that is Manewaves. I'm still educating myself on Dream Beauties :biggrin:

Thank you, I definitely wasn't leaving any behind, it was super exciting. They were $3 CAD each.
