Two Crazy Crafters

This week I wanted to show you my favorite Barbie house. This was specially made for Sears & Roebuck in 1964.


I keep all of my Vintage Barbie's in this house. It is the main attraction of my collection. I found it at a flea market several years ago and I love displaying them in it.

I like having the closet to keep most of my vintage Barbie dresses together.

This cute little pink phone rings when you wind up the back!

Every now and then I change up their outfits and rearrange their positions.

I love these little hangers! Can you believe they survived all these years?!


Did you know that Ken's best friend Allen was named after The Ruth Handler's (the creator of Barbie) daughter's husband? His name was Allen Siegel.

Barbie's best friend Midge was originally to be called Susie, after Ken Handler's wife but that name was already being used by another toy company so Mattel settled on Midge Hadley.

I also wanted to share a picture of one of my vintage patterns. This pattern is from 1961. I only had to pay a quarter more for it than it originally cost!
