Right now I have her in a basket and tomorrow I'll take photos and notes of what will need to be fixed up. Sadly she's in rough shape (worse than I thought) so this'll take a bit but it'll hopefully be a fun tim

I've never restored a ragdoll before so I'll be mostly doing research but this'll be interesting as she needs ALOT of repairs. Her heart was even ripped out :(

So I'll be slowly but surely patching her up with help and make her much better!

Turns out she was only $8 and was rotting there for some time according to the owner (the booth she was in legit only had a display case, a chair, and her). So I bought her and plan to fix her up to give her the love she needs after being left in the store so that's what this thread is.

-now I saw one but she was tied to two porcelain raggedy's as a set for 70 (and all were in good condition so somebody was gna snatch em anyways) so I had little to no hope.

THEN! In the corner in a booth I saw this darling on a tiny chair wayyyy back in the left corner!

So today I went to an antique store w 40 dollars my mama gave me and originally wasn't going to buy anything HOWEVER! I was looking for raggedy Ann's because hyperfixation and they scratch my brain in a way I like (also get over my religious trauma weirdly)-

That's it, that's the post

(Also to note I use native and indigenous interchangeably as personally for me either is fine though I've seen a majority of individuals people say different. Listen to them!!)

-and the togetherness that fine but please remember the true origin of the holiday. Also just a peeve of mine maybe.. dont? Dress in native stereotypes or pilgrims for it? That's just odd imo. Anyways; happy November despite EVERYTHING!

Indigenous people around the globe still face horrid oppression whitewashing, erasure and more. I remember in elementary school literally being told indigenous people in the US didn't exist anymore (despite being half native myself). If you celebrate Thanksgiving for the thankfulness- 2/3
