Thank you for sharing your stories. My story is I had a brain surgery in September 2023 plus a long road to recovery. All those times I neglected my dolls and I’m beginning to bond with them again and it has brought me joy. 🌺
@@revanelson8810 hi Reva 👋🏼 Thanks for sharing that! I can’t imagine what that was like - but I can understand the joy reconnecting with your dolls has brought. I’m glad they’ve been there to help 🥰
I found your videos a few weeks ago and binged all the videos that you already had up. Now I get so excited every time I see you posted a new video. I love your videos! I could listen to your stories all day.
@@ColetteGravatt oh noooo, you want all the way back to my cringey beginnings?? 🤣 All I can say is I had no idea how hard it was to talk to myself in my living room at first.
Thank you for sharing! Mine is I always had "Samantha Learns A Lesson" book and subscription to the AG magazine, but never had a doll as a kid growing up. My family are historical reenactors though... I reenact 1790s-1813, so I was drawn to Felicity and Caroline's stories and clothes. I have 6 historical girls (Samantha Felicity are my 1990's dolls, Rebecca, Caroline, Maryellen, and Kit) and one modern girl Lea Clark. As of right now I consider my collection complete unless they release another historical that speaks to me. My daugher is 8 yrs old and we like taking our dolls to historical locations and taking pictures and doll teas. She had an AG themed birthday party at a local tea house and the girls were encouraged to bring any doll or stuffed animal to tea!
@@jessnawoods oh! That’s a cool connection to the historical dolls! I wish I had the will power to want only 6 dolls. Does your daughter have any? Or did she bring a different toy to the party?
@DisBlaine She has new Samantha (I wanted her to have her childhood version of her) and TM 88 that she got for that birthday because I got it half off due to being discontinued for 129(?). She has some MyLife dolls she's allowed to do whatever with.
It's so interesting hearing you talk about your life. I often ask myself what it is that makes me love, obsess about, and collect dolls. I agree with you that it brings back comfort, and innocence, and good memories. I love your little Cabbage Patch doll, and your tiny Care-bear, and what they mean to you. I bought the Barbie Styling Head for my Julie, because I had it as a kid and loved it. If I could have chosen a Truly Me when I was a child, (had they existed then) I would have wanted one with Asian features, because that is what I thought was the most beautiful thing in the world!😊 Thank you for sharing.❤
@@crystalbluepersuasion3897 other collectors definitely get it! But it’s hard to put into words for others. That styling head was so cool!! I love the crossover, which is why I preordered the LE Barbie coming in November . That’s what I love about collecting now - not just as an adult with my own money but because there are so many different looking dolls. 🥳
Found your channel this morning and I'm only 5 min in to this first video that popped up. I'm here for it. I already like you. I love that you looked into the history of the doll collecting. I love that you are honest and also that you are a fellow Torontonian!!! I think you need a new friend in you life. Spoilt alert it's gonna be me hahah.
@@NexJen ohhhh I don’t think I realized you’re in Toronto too! Not sure why I thought more west (Calgary maybe). Thats so fun! I’m fascinated by the history (and sociology) of doll collecting since I’ve been doing it so long 🤣
I spent a lot of my younger years in and out of homelessness thanks for sharing your experience. I think too many don't understand how common of an issue it is.
@@kerrysmiles definitely common! I ended up going to a youth shelter at 16 (and later on a group home), so I saw SO MANY unhomed youth come and go over those 6 months!
I love the fact that you have a beautiful Tiana collection! 🐸💚 it’s ok to love what you love and you shouldn’t have to explain that to nobody! When I was little there was no Disney princess that looked like me so I gravitated to Pocahontas and I absolutely LOVED her! Nobody couldn’t tell me I wasn’t her lol. Now I buy my daughter Tiana toys because I wish it was something I could have had growing up. Thank you for sharing 💚

@@BarbeegurlJ oh wow, thank you so much! I’m really enjoying making these videos and engaging with other doll lovers, so if that continues to grow, it’ll mean connecting with even more doll fans 🥰
My wife and I became homeless twice. Because we trusted the wrong people and I've just let it go as that. But lucky thing. We were living out of our car with 4 dogs. They're tiny ones. Thank God but when I had my dolls they help me escape the situation. I was in. I could think of back stories and I could play with them and I had Spin master. liv dolls Katie, I got her in a thrift store with some wings she was my favorite. I came up with so many different stories for different wigs that I should wear.
Oh no, twice?? Sad to hear but it’s amazing you bounced back from it. And I can relate to the escape dolls are from bad times - they’re also great companions for good times. I’m glad you’re doing better! And yes there’s no point holding on to resentment. It’s just poison.
I’m left handed too! The Tom’s bag and the little cabbage patch kid are soo cute!! 🥰 I loved this talk, thank you for sharing more of your life with us! I really relate to “remembering how it felt” and wanting to be a comfort to kids in our everyday life. It’s always confused me how fellow adults seem to forget how things seem and feel from a child’s perspective! 🫶🏻😅 I try to be the adult I wish I had in my life to my nieces and nephew. Beautiful video as always Blaine, this will totally be one that I rewatch again later! 💕
@@americangirlfilms ahhhhh a fellow south paw, that explains it! We’re just more unique 🤪 (we have to be!) Yeah isn’t it wild how older people will pick on kids???

@@annettefedd488 hi Annette! I’m glad you like the stories - and especially the dolls 🥰 I guess that’s why my channel is growing.

That way I can go on and on assuming people will just mute me anyway lol)

Hey Blaine, thanks for sharing you story you are not a cornball 😊 you are sharing who you are and I would rather know the true Blaine and that is what you are giving. So the word for who you are is unique and I say for you to know I am left handed too. That is so funny we lefties are unique. Lol
@@donnamcclam oh yay, another south paw!! It seems like a silly that to feel unique over, but right handed people should try to use a can opener upside down 🤣 I’m glad you enjoyed my rambling… again lol. I’m insufferable when it comes to talking about my dolls
Yes I am that South paw too……..l.you have now found people who enjoy the rambling, me I call it giving information to others that honestly want to know your life of dolls. I have these dolls but my other love is Liddle kiddles by Mattel if you are familiar with them. My family know my love for toys it is my world of comfort and yours too.
Happy Five Month Anniversary!😄 I never understood why anyone has the right to question who and what you love!❤ I do know it makes me feel happy to see how much you love your dolls! Thank you, Blaine!😊
@@paulettepalmer4860 thanks Paulette!! 🥳 I can understand curiosity (on any level) but sometimes it was the way they worded the question. I didn’t get into how grotesque it was at certain times or comments that were forwarded to me by orhers. But it was strange! Not that it had anything to do with me, so I didn’t take it personally. Haha and yes I really do love my dolls. I can’t even hide it on camera when I’m trying to be cool about it 🤣
OMG just discovered ur channel! HI! My fav princess & movie is Princess and the Frog/Tiana too!! I'm from Pensacola so NOLA is close and I love having a princess close by. Plus shes stunning and I love the story. My Claudie wears the Disney AG Tiana outfits
@@maddie7399 hi Maddie 👋🏼 I love meeting other AG collectors who love Tiana! Did you know her name was originally supposed to be Maddie (short for Madelaine)?? But, this gets a little dark, when they ran the storyboards by a focus group of black Americans, they suggested changing the name because it sounded to similar to mammy (a racist character type in characters around the time the movie takes place). lol I’m sure you didn’t stop by for that but I’m pretty much a PatF encyclopedia at this point. I’ll look for you on ig
Hi Blaine, Felicity looks lovely in Elizabeth’s tea dress is it? I think one day you might want to collect Elizabeth. She is a gorgeous doll. 😉 Congrats on 5 months and close to 1000 subscribers. I am getting close too! Your videos are sweet and entertaining. You are so brave to tell your personal stories. I am glad you have such a positive attitude and that you are doing ok. ❤
@@CherishedDollFriends hey Cheryl 👋🏼 I’ll give felicity’s outfit some time to grow on me before I change her - maybe into her own tea gown. I think it’s the hat I don’t love. Lol you know, I don’t feel brave telling my stories, I feel self indulgent-but if people enjoy it, it’ll encourage me to keep doing it 🤣
Hi Blaine I haven't watched your vids on the PC but have watched on my TV cause I was under the weather. I can finally get on my PC and thank you for all the recent great vids you have. With Elizabeths Hat on Felicity it takes some practice, I had to look at pics. and in some cases they wore a mob cap under the hat because when they took off the hat the mob cap remained even in doors. Not sure if it was the case with this outfit but I wat Historical docs movies and love old books so that's where some of my info comes from. Cant wait for the nest video! Is Mary Elles Dinner ready?
@@1964chopper awww I do love having conversations in the comments, but I also watch CZcams on my tv, so I totally get it’s not always convenient commenting on videos. You know, I wondered if I was doing something wrong with that hat! I saw someone put on felicitys tea dress in another video and learned I was putting on that hat wrong too lol. I’ll look for pics. Also, yes! I just finished the diner a couple days ago! I meant to post a short yesterday funnily enough, but I may wait for a video (like when I add a doll wearing another Maryellen outift to the scene)
i Currently Have That Green 💚 Birthstone Dress 👗 On My Josefina With Her Glasses 👓 On With Her Original Meet Necklace On Together With The Green Necklace On At The Sametime 🫶🏼
Loved your stories! Question what type of stands are those? Just bought my first AG (the Ariel from the Disney collab) and trying to figure out how to display her.
@@adrianahenrichs359 oops, I’ve actually been meaning to say AG has restocked their doll stands! I preordered 4 a few months back and got them a couple weeks ago. They’re really nice and say American Girl right on them.
@@DisBlaine OMG thank you! I couldn't see the logo in the video! I've been looking at the cheaper ones on Amazon but I liked the wider bases on these. Guess you can't outdo the originals!
@DisBlaine your videos make me want to start my own channel! Seriously, you and AG Takes Over are my favorite AG Tubers, and your videos and stories are so relatable and also inspiring to hear, also I have this really cool idea for AG fashion week next year and I kinda want to establish a channel before fashion week lol
@@Alixthecollector that means a lot to me for a couple reasons. First, Kristie is the first and closest friend I’ve made on AGTube, so I love when we’re associated. Second, there’s no doubt in my mind when people see my videos, they should see anyone can do this! Also, it’s a lot of fun lol. Sure I was nervous and a mess in the beginning, but I don’t think anyone else would be to that extent lol.
@DisBlaine Seriously!! You and Kristie are so real and your collections are so beautiful and I love that you guys share them with us like this, every time I start one of either of your videos I feel like I'm catching up with people from some hometown none of us has ever lived in lmfao
Apropos of nothing. You think you're weird ? I was reading the comments and started to read the titles of other videos in the side bar to find what I wanted to watch next. This is what I saw: Hunter Discovers 29 Human Body Parts in the Desert. The banner on the thumbnail is They Found SEVERED HEADS.
@@djg5950 okay I had to read that a couple times-I thought you were saying that’s how the title of this video was showing up 🤣☠️🤣 I wonder why your algorithm suggested that 🤔 😆
@@kellyhatcher7735 out of all my dolls? Claudie is my fave AG character, but my fave doll is Deepika (limited edition Jasmine but redressed in my collection)
@@kerrysmiles it’s a bit tricky buying from her. She makes batches of outfits (whatever she feels like, no requests) and then posts them in AG FB groups, both Canadian and American. Whoever comments SOLD first gets whatever outfit(s) they claimed. It took me a LONG time to claim an Oshkosh outfit fast enough. I want one more someday, a boy Oshkosh set.

Lol you know, I don’t feel brave telling my stories, I feel self indulgent-but if people enjoy it, it’ll encourage me to keep doing it 🤣
Hi Blaine I haven't watched your vids on the PC but have watched on my TV cause I was under the weather. I can finally get on my PC and thank you for all the recent great vids you have. With Elizabeths Hat on Felicity it takes some practice, I had to look at pics. and in some cases they wore a mob cap under the hat because when they took off the hat the mob cap remained even in doors. Not sure if it was the case with this outfit but I wat Historical docs movies and love old books so that's where some of my info comes from. Cant wait for the nest video! Is Mary Elles Dinner ready?
@@1964chopper awww I do love having conversations in the comments, but I also watch CZcams on my tv, so I totally get it’s not always convenient commenting on videos.
You know, I wondered if I was doing something wrong with that hat! I saw someone put on felicitys tea dress in another video and learned I was putting on that hat wrong too lol. I’ll look for pics.
Also, yes! I just finished the diner a couple days ago! I meant to post a short yesterday funnily enough, but I may wait for a video (like when I add a doll wearing another Maryellen outift to the scene)
❤
i Currently Have That Green 💚 Birthstone Dress 👗 On My Josefina With Her Glasses 👓 On With Her Original Meet Necklace On Together With The Green Necklace On At The Sametime 🫶🏼
@@charlenemendez3353 oh that would look good on her! It must’ve been weird seeing it on tm4 lol!
Loved your stories! Question what type of stands are those? Just bought my first AG (the Ariel from the Disney collab) and trying to figure out how to display her.
@@adrianahenrichs359 oops, I’ve actually been meaning to say AG has restocked their doll stands! I preordered 4 a few months back and got them a couple weeks ago. They’re really nice and say American Girl right on them.
@@DisBlaine OMG thank you! I couldn't see the logo in the video! I've been looking at the cheaper ones on Amazon but I liked the wider bases on these. Guess you can't outdo the originals!
✊️ Taurus traits!! 😂😂😂
@@Alixthecollector haha you know I thought of you when I brought up being a Taurus 🤣
@@DisBlaine 😂😂🤜🏻🤛🏻😂
@DisBlaine your videos make me want to start my own channel! Seriously, you and AG Takes Over are my favorite AG Tubers, and your videos and stories are so relatable and also inspiring to hear, also I have this really cool idea for AG fashion week next year and I kinda want to establish a channel before fashion week lol
@@Alixthecollector that means a lot to me for a couple reasons. First, Kristie is the first and closest friend I’ve made on AGTube, so I love when we’re associated. Second, there’s no doubt in my mind when people see my videos, they should see anyone can do this!
Also, it’s a lot of fun lol. Sure I was nervous and a mess in the beginning, but I don’t think anyone else would be to that extent lol.
@DisBlaine Seriously!! You and Kristie are so real and your collections are so beautiful and I love that you guys share them with us like this, every time I start one of either of your videos I feel like I'm catching up with people from some hometown none of us has ever lived in lmfao
Apropos of nothing. You think you're weird ? I was reading the comments and started to read the titles of other videos in the side bar to find what I wanted to watch next. This is what I saw: Hunter Discovers 29 Human Body Parts in the Desert. The banner on the thumbnail is They Found SEVERED HEADS.
Reminded me that I have dolls that need limbs reattached, heads put back on and wigs changed.
@@djg5950 okay I had to read that a couple times-I thought you were saying that’s how the title of this video was showing up 🤣☠️🤣
I wonder why your algorithm suggested that 🤔 😆
@@djg5950 oh nooooo 🤣
Maybe that’s what your algorithm was trying to tell you
I love your doll what is your favourite
@@kellyhatcher7735 out of all my dolls? Claudie is my fave AG character, but my fave doll is Deepika (limited edition Jasmine but redressed in my collection)
Do you plan to be a father one day? The way you care for your dolls makes me think you'd be a great one
Sorry nvm just reached the last bit of your video :)
@@Jweeee1111 haha too funny! Now that you mention it, I did answer that question in the video. My dolls satisfy my paternal instincts 😆
Do you have a link for the Oshkosh seller? Wonder if they sell to the US.
@@kerrysmiles it’s a bit tricky buying from her. She makes batches of outfits (whatever she feels like, no requests) and then posts them in AG FB groups, both Canadian and American. Whoever comments SOLD first gets whatever outfit(s) they claimed. It took me a LONG time to claim an Oshkosh outfit fast enough.
I want one more someday, a boy Oshkosh set.
I love your little episodes, but I couldn’t enjoy it because of the commercial breaks so moving onto the next program with less commercials
@@sunflowershine5160 ahh okay. Thanks for trying!
WOW‼️😵 This time u only dressed 3.5 outta 6 doll's. But i can understant u talked a bit & that in * gyenreal is alót TY 1ST ☆.
LISA😅
@@fatimaazam6108 haha it’s because I kept stopping to show other dolls and toys I think. I really expected the stories I told to take me longer 🥴🤡
@@DisBlaine 🤣 me too 🤣🤣
