Welcome to Dolls Blog: The Doll Collecting Blog! I'm Denise Van Patten, your dolls blogger.
You might think that it would be impossible to blog about dolls, but you'd be wrong! I'm a fairly obsessed doll collector--I run this Doll Collecting web site--Doll Collecting at About.com, I own and manage a doll store, I'm writing a doll book, and I've been an active doll collector for over 20 years.
In other words, I have lots to say about dolls on a daily basis. So, sit back, enjoy, and thanks for joining me on this new blogging adventure!

Hi, Denise! I’ve been reading your blog for a long time. Good job! Write more about our common hobby.
If I wish to sell my dolls at a fair price. Is conseigning with Theriault’s a good idea?
Hi, I was wondering if you could help me know the best way to sell some dolls from Europe. I have Polish dolls Checosolvia dolls and Baby Crissys and F & B baby dolls Any Idea other than Ebay
I have several complete sets of Ashton Drake angel baby dolls (Heavenly Inspirations, Blessed are the Children, All I Wish for You, Lucky Charmers and others), approximately $2,500 to $3,000 original value. I started collecting in 1992. We have had to move into a small single-wide mobile home and I have to sell them. They are in original boxes w/hangtags and original wrapping w/certificates of authenticity. Is there a website or something to contact other doll collectors and see if anyone is interested in my angel babies? People want me to give them to them for nothing, but I don’t want to go that route. I don’t expect to make a killing on them, just want them to go to good homes.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated
Thank you,

hae i have a katherines collection at silver lake doll but being young and naive i didn’t bother about makeing sure to get an authenticity certificate, im wondering is there any other way to prove their authenticity? she has a tag sewn into the back of her dress but im not sure if it does much in way of proof?
i am looking for feedback on my handmade spirit dolls. i also have a blog, which is http://www.spiritdollsbypaula.blogspot.com
you do a good job Denise hope you share .
Hope you will share things like this much, I love it.
Hi Sam, regarding your question about certificate on katherine’s collection dolls.
When purchasing your doll you should have received your certificate in the box.
We have been selling Katherine’s Collection for over four years now. We always provide this information however the tag sewn at the back of the doll will state this is katherines product. I do hope this helps you.
Decorative living have just launched some beautiful collections which can be found on our website.
Anyone want to buy some lee middleton dolls? I have 5 of them and lost my job and really need some excess money. Please email me at nicole746@Hotmail.com
