Porcelain dolls on FB

Someone on a local FB group is selling these dolls. WIBU to buy one for my ex-MIL? This just reminded me that she once bought me a porcelain figurine of a victorian style woman because she thought it looked like me (it didn’t). We otherwise get along fairly well Grin

Would anyone actually be brave enough to sleep under the same roof as one of these beauties?

My friend used to collect these, she had about 30 of them on shelves lining right around her bedroom. They gave me the heebies when I went for a sleepover!

But as your MIL started this, YANBU to get her one Grin

I'd maybe find out if she likes them first just in case she wouldn't.

Aw I had the one with the skates. I used to collect them when I was a little girl and name them all 😂 so I don't find them scary. Used to sleep with lots of them on display in my room. Don't get the one with the glasses she looks a bit freaky!

I had one with glasses when I was younger- not that one though! I don't mind some China dolls but others are a bit eerie.

Shit man, those eyes.

Bleurgh.

If you want really creepy google Little Apple Dolls.

You have been warned!!!

It would be more of a (tongue-in-cheek) revenge doll purchase/gift. So the scarier the better Wink

I’m amazed that some of you like this stuff. I’m probably going to have nightmares tonight just from looking at them!

You may find that she thinks you like them and buys you similar (or worse) for Christmas.
