I went to one of the local thrift stores here last Thursday. They were selling all their clothes (except botique) for $1.00 each. I bought $345.00 worth of formal wear for $20.00. I will, and have started, cutting them apart and use them for doll clothes for my Neices 1st American girl doll. ChaChing!

Oh yes - I forgot - all the buttons, zippers, lace. I saved money there too.

Our local Salvation Army store sometimes has .99 cent Saturdays - all the clothes are .99. Also the clothes with the color of the week are .69. Last time I went I got about 10 silk ties for .69 each.

I also picked up some wool winter coats, mens suits, skirts & jackets for .99 or .69 cents.

Check them out in your town and see if they do something like that there.

Your models are precious. You did a great job on the clothes. They are all so cute, especially the little "Chef".
