About mountainmullins

Sasha doll collector primarily plus other interesting dolls. I inheirited my love of dolls from my dear Mother and also her collection. My first Sasha doll was Gwennie, a redheaded studio doll. Since Gwennie, I have collected other Sasha dolls and love their individual personalities created by their eye painting, hair color and styling, and dressing them. It is such fun to share with other collectors!

The 2022 Sasha Festival in Syracuse, NY

Image

I safely returned from the Sasha Festival in Syracuse, NY. I thought I would post today the lovely helper wins.

Finn is my travel companion. He had a wonderful time. We both think this was one of our most favorite festivals ever. The helpers were all fantastic! My paddle number was #74 and it was lucky.

The dress on the left is a floral corduroy. i love the colors in these two dresses.

A cute scottie dog on the collar on the black and white checked dress. The shirt on the right is a red, white, and blue geometric pattern.

A darling dress on the left with nice dolls that look like Campbell’s soup kids, The pajamas are made with an Asian influence. The flannel fabric has dragonflies with dragonfly buttons and sweet felted slippers.

I will post again soon to show the other treasures from our time in Syracuse. Thank you for visitIng with us today.

Miss Piggy of Cow Creek Road

Image

Sharing a visitor here on our Cow Creek farm. No Sasha dolls in this post. I had noticed this sweet pig before residing at a house nearby and had affectionately named her Miss Piggy.

A most charming face and she seemed happy to see me. Almost as happy as I was to see her. The Sasha family was very happy to see Miss Piggy too.

Thank you for visiting today. Miss Piggy and I send you happy wishes for a great week. 😊

Claire in May…One Eve

Image

Claire is a beautiful tiny eyed fringe girl from 1968. I love the eye painting. She is wearing a sweet dress that is perfect for Springtime. Maker is unknown.

Her white leather sandals are so nice on a warmer day like today. We just had a nice Spring shower which cooled us off a bit. Claire brought her teddy outdoors for some fresh air too.

Taking these photos later in day, and after the rain, has given Claire a certain glow and radiance. What a pretty girl and she is also very petite being shorter than most of her sisters.

A close up of Claire.

I hope you enjoyed this “dusky” post highlighting Claire. Thank you for visiting with us.

A Two Cabinet Survey

Image

Today I had time to look at a couple of the doll cabinets and I started to rearrange and remove a few things. I tend to crowd cabinets and they do look better when you can see the dolls clearly. So after a bit of moving dolls around, I thought I would share a few photos with you. In this first cabinet, all of the dolls were painted by Sasha Morgenthaler.

The dolls say hello. They are on the front row Ana on the left, Shelly, and Gracie. Peeking from behind on the left is Erica and Carmella.

Up front and next to little Gracie is Morgen, Gwennie, and Brigitte. From the back row is Carmella, Celine, and Bonnie.

Upstairs and sitting down is Bennie and Bea. Suzanne is next to Bea but you can see her better in the next photo.

There is Suzanne with Bertie, and Martina next to her.

In this cabinet in the front row is Adeline, Lulu, and Janet. They are factory NP dolls. In the back row from the left is Marie, Audra, and Nellie. The two sweet mohair bears were made by Janet Myhill-Dabbs.

A couple of photos showing the girls a little closer. I hope you liked viewing some of the Sasha dolls in their ”habitat” here at Sasha Shangri-La. Thank you for visiting with us today. 😊
