Correction on time in business

I have been in business since 1990!  Twenty-five years!  The merchandise has changed, been added onto, sold....but my love for working with my customers has not changed.  Please take the time to view my website http://barbspencerdolls.com

Picture of my daughter, Robin

I haven't posted on my blogs in such a long time.  Seems to be more complicated than before!  I am now in my 23rd year of business.  I am now more into buying and selling than making dolls.  I have several projects in the works, but it seems that my enjoyment comes from working with my customers selling items shown starting at http://barbspencerdolls.com .  This last year has been a hard one.  I lost my daughter, Robin, who was 49 years old.  She passed away in her sleep.  She leaves behind 2 daughters and 5 grandchildren, another grandchild on the way.  Other than that I still have my husband, my parents, my animals. 
Trying to up-date my blogs, and it does not seem to be the easiest thing to do!  Just saying HELLO this 13th day of April, 2013.  I'm still in business using my website as my store front..http://barbspencerdolls.com.  More merchandise arriving continually.  Keep checking my site and don't forget that I have my own search engine for you to easily find just what you are needing.  Search engine is located at the bottom of every page.  http://barbspencerdolls.com

Where does my time go??

I don't know where my time flies off to, but at least I am beating the one year mark to work on this blog. Barb Spencer's Enchanted Attic is now in its 21st year of business. Still enjoying working with customers and finding neat products for re-sale. I need to market my Miniatures better, but find myself advertising what I think that my customers are seeking the most: Patterns, doll hair, Sewing/Crafting supplies. Some of my favorite finds are in the Miniature department!  Love Miniatures! Also love buying and selling dolls, accessories and clothing for them, not to mention the many sizes of teddy bears that I have waiting on new homes. Keep adding to Books. Here you will not only find instructional books for sewing, making and repairing jewelry, making baskets, making cloth dolls, crochet, knitting, cross-stitching, plastic canvas...activity books for children,books of movie stars, educational, collectibles, Golden books...
Because I do not have a special section on my website for Miscellaneous, Books include: Stickers, Postcards, Paperdolls, Gift sacks, Notecards, Christmas cards,etc. My website is full of goodies..well worth the time to search through. If you are looking for a certain item, please use the search engine at the bottom of every page. And of course, there is always me to ask questions.  My 2 e-mail addresses are: ctx40843@centurytel.net and bsspencer@centurytel.net.
