Precious Moments Dolls and figurines

[DodgerGirl]

Who remembers when Precious Moments dolls and figurines became all the rage? Mom and I have always loved Precious Moments dolls and figurines because they are very special and unique. And what makes Precious Moments dolls and figurines unique is their wonderful teardrop shaped eyes. And Precious Moments is still a classic line for collectors and there is even a Precious Moments museum in Oklahoma known as the Precious Moments Chapel too

My college roommate's mom collected those! They are really cute, and it was fun hunting up new or hard-to-find ones for her.

I love my Precious Moments - I have well over 200 of them displayed beautifully in 2 different curio cabinets. I don’t have all the Disney ones, but I do have most of them. I also have a nativity and Christmas town that come out once a year. I love them so much

I also have a curio cabinet full of Precious Moments figurines. My favorite one is "No Tears Past the Gate."

it's pretty amusing to look at all the precious moments figures that people are repurposing into entirely different looks-i like the punk and goth in particular. this Beetlejuice one Is pretty cool-

My lone Precious Moments doll:

I had quite a collection of them in my younger years but cleaned out and donated a ton to our local thrift store. Just don't have room for extra dust collectors.

I did keep a Disney bride and groom wearing mouse ears and a few Christmas ornaments that my kids gave me when they were young.

I remember them for sure. I still have some in a box somewhere. I also have some beanie babies somewhere too.

We received several of them as wedding gifts, but we have cats and do not own any breakable display items, so we tried to exchange them for something more practical.

The only place that we found that would take them as exchanges was a Hallmark store, but we were not interested in most of their inventory (again, mostly breakable display items), so we ended up with an entire case of gift wrap. I still have some of it, 30 years later.

I have a wedding one that was given to me as a wedding gift form a friend who was big into them.

They also had plush dolls of Precious Moments called Precious Moments Friendship Gardens and they were big dolls and tiny dolls with a plush teddy bear and the tiny versions were mini sized and the dolls had numbers on their bottoms of their feet to tell what number of doll you had in the series

Same. When we moved last year, I got rid of the Christmas ornaments and statues. I had some early ones (always the hope of increasing in value), but they never really did increase. Not worth the real estate in storage.
