I Can’t Stand Naked Barbies!

Do your little girls keep taking off Barbie’s clothes and leaving them all naked?  My granddaughters do!  For some reason, this bothers me.  Especially the Ken doll!!!

It is an innocent thing that most all Barbie playing, little girls do.  Maybe it is too much trouble for them to put the clothes back on.  I don’t know, but the older I get, the more it drives me nuts.

This weekend while my granddaughters were swimming with their “Naked Barbies” I asked them where their swimming suits were?  They each very nonchalantly said they were at home.  They didn’t even notice they were naked?!?

I am always complaining to them to please dress your Barbies and not leave the naked, to no avail.   So I decided to fix the problem 🙂 hehe

DIY – How To Cure the Naked Barbie:

Paint swimming suits on them!

Hey, I’m no artist, but this makes me feel better! I just used some acrylic paint, but I will probably regret not using an oil base paint.  Anyways, I am happy, and they won’t notice the unprofessional paint job!!!

Do you hate naked barbies too?  Let me know if you like this idea!!!

UPDATE:  The acrylic paint did start to peel off in the pool water.  A friend told me about a much easier way, and I  found it to be a much easier way and it stays on….Sharpies!  I have a bag of colored sharpies and tried it.  It dries instantly and stays on!
