Has anyone had or know of anyone who has had luck in selling handmade clothing and accessories for 18" dolls?

Well I was clicking on the link to see what you were selling. LOL The only place I have seen items sold have been at swap meets. I bought several mumu's for my daughters' American Girl dolls. Two of my daughters are Pacific Islanders so I liked getting more traditonal clothing for the dolls.

I sell on eBay sometimes and have researched that same question. I do see sellers there and yes, they are selling. I also have a friend who sells them at a craft shop. She sold every piece she had before Christmas. I wish I liked making those tiny pieces; I think it would sell good.

I used to make a lot of 18" doll clothes. Must have saturated my market. Hoping my grandaughters will take a liking to the dolls so I can make more!!

while they are tedious, time consuming and often difficult to make, doll clothes of any size is a GREAT seller!
I have boys, but while living in Italy making doll clothes to sell at craft fairs paid for many a Trip around Europe!
