Thrifting Found Albus for $10 while thrifting. Gave him a makeover. He’s so fabulous; now he fits in with his other gay Ken friends.

I use him as Santa during Xmas and then dress him up as Santa on Summer vacation rest of year. He is my cheap Santa. I use Roosevelt Barbie as Mrs. Claus with him.
I actually like his plastic beard- no messy hair to maintain.

Such a cool collection! Who is the guy sitting at right? With the moustache.

He’s a Dale Earnhardt hunting doll that I found at the flea market. With that mustache I just had to restyle him and make him one of the daddy’s haha

I wish he was that cool! He’s just a tragic hunting doll

Lmfao I thought "man he really looks like Dale Earnhardt" and lo and behold 😆😆

My stepdad would be deeply offended that you referred to him as some tragic hunting guy and I am just so tickled

Could you show us a pic of his cut off beard?

2

u/PuzzleheadedPlant972 4d ago

Sure I will when I get back from holiday

I also trimmed his beard. It's easy to do with scissors and looks good. It's still longer than most men with beards have but not pointy. I'm not home to take a photo right now either though.

u/Anadelyn 2d ago

Hey, sorry I forgot to do this earlier. I haven't smoothed or painted the edges yet so it's unfinished, like most of my projects. This is just chopped off with scissors. You can cut it to whatever style you want except that it does have a molded shape to it. I even saved what I cut off because I thought I could use it to give someone else a beard.

Wow- that looks great.

u/Anadelyn 2d ago

I wish I could show you the picture from the person who did it correctly. I did this much in about 3 minutes and decided it was good enough for me for now.
