Making a Split King Adjustable Bed?How to make a split king adjustable bed using 2 flat sheets? A single king flat sheet gets pulled off from the level side of the bed to the other elevated head. I've tried folding each side along the split (which doesn't always look flat under a king bedspread). I saw a trick of overlapping onto the other side, but haven't found that website again (did I forget there was a bookmark button?) Any suggestions?

 

A wooden bench.

Age of Conant Ball Bench?Can anyone help me determine the age of this 6 foot long Conant Ball bench? It has no nails. The legs are inserted and pegged. My mother brought it from Massachusetts in the 1960s, but I'm sure it's much older. Any ideas what decade it's from? or century? the 1800s or 1900s? any idea on the value?

 

Information About Collective Memories Doll?

Information About Collective Memories Doll?I don't really know anything about dolls so I thought I would post a question on a site like this. I got her at a thrift store and wanted to know more about her. She didn't come with a name, but it said exclusively designed, hand painted and created. So I don't know if that means she's a one of a kind or if there are dolls like her. On her neck, it says 85 Leonardo, and I found she was sold in Kmart. Ive seen other dolls like her (face, eyes, hair color and style) but I don't know if it's the same because blue eyes and blond hair are common. Searched the heck outta her brand, (Collectible Memories exclusive) and didn't find much. Again, I'm no expert so the stuff I might know can be completely wrong. Help is very much wanted, thank you.

 

Two porcelain dolls.

Seymour Mann Dolls?I just got these today. I am so excited. I know it's crazy I am 55 years of age and these are the first dolls I ever had. I grew up hard and fast , and I was never allowed to have dolls or anything a little girl would dream of ever having. I was at a Goodwill and I stumbled across them. My finance bought them. Crazy I know but I started to cry. They are so beautiful and I feel so lucky to have found them. I don't know how much they are worth and it matters VERY LITTLE. I just wanted to share my story. Hope you don't mind me sharing.
