Thanksgiving Scene Set Up!

I filmed this setting up video for my Thanksgiving scene and I wanted to share it with you.

Hope you enjoy!  And have a wonderday!

Happy Thanksgiving!

I crafted myself a kitchen for my dolls over the past few months and decided to use it in this photo shoot for Thanksgiving!  I will show you the kitchen later, but for now here are the pictures from the Thanksgiving photo shoot I had with my girls!

It's been a while...

Oops.  Long time no blog, he he.

Raising a puppy is a bit harder than we planned.  Our first corgi was very easy going and pretty easy to train, our second one, not as much.  I have to spend a lot of time making him understand our world while trying to understand his.  It may take a while, but I think it will be worth it in the end.

Anyways, I bought fabric for this project I am starting several months ago and want it finished by winter time.  That may be asking a lot of myself, but I think I can do it.

TA DA!

I have wanted to make this Anna costume for my doll for ages.  I bought the patterns almost two years ago.  So far I have cut out all the pattern pieces, which took quite a long time.  And I have cut out the fabric pieces for the bodice, skirt, and vest.  I am going to save the cloak and gloves for after I finish the dress portion.

I am very excited to get back into it.  I love sewing and have wanted to pick up a project, so I thought why not this one.  I will try to update as much as I can, as I work, but like I mentioned raising a puppy is tough and he will be my number one priority at the moment.

Have a wonderday!

It's been a month!

Gosh, time does fly by.

I wanted to apologize for not posting.  I have been working on and off of a few crafts and forgot I wanted to share something with you.  I will try to make that post as soon as possible.

I am working on a bigger craft, I just need to finalize what I want to do.  I have made two things, just need to make a few more.  And I want to take more photoshoots, but right now our lawn is infested with mosquitoes and I can't be outside if they are around.  Hopefully soon!

Thank you for hanging around.
Have a wonderday!

Fun Finds - Meijer, Target, & Thrift Store!

I have been on the look out for dolly sized items and here is what I found.

I went to Meijer with my mom and while we were looking at the school supplies (yep school supplies!) and found these erasers.  I have seen some people charging $3 for one of these, so I was excited when I found this pack of 4 for $1!

They are the perfect size for American Girl or any other 18 inch dolls.

While I was at Target, I love looking in the clearance sections and went to the toy section and found this Snoopy figure set for $4.

I even kept the box for a background scene.  It's quite adorable.

Finally, the other day I went to Thrift Store and while I didn't find anything American Girl, I bought some baby clothes I hope to resize to fit my dolls.  Here they are!

I liked the quote on this one.

This shirt is from the Beijing Zoo in China, I thought it was too neat to pass up.

This dress reminded me a bit of Melody's dresses that has leaked.

I love superheroes and can't wait to make a doll shirt with this logo on it.

A Very Hungry Catipillar is one of my favorite childhood books and I had to have this shirt.

This little dress almost fits the dolls perfectly, just a few stitches and it will fit great.

I love the ruffles on this dress.

I loved the colors on this dress.

This dress was adorable with the bright flower pattern.

I adored this shirt with the ruffles on the sleeves.  I have actually already turned this into a shirt and put it on my doll.

I love plaid patterns, so I had to have this one.

I love music, so I thought I would use this shirt to make a shirt for my dolls.  Or two, it's a pretty good sized shirt.

While we took a walk through the home goods section I found this little rocking chair.  It is a bit small for my dolls, but it is a great piece.  I am in the process of sanding and repainting it right now.  It is looking great.

I hope you enjoyed, have a wonderday!

Craft Preview...

I have been working on this craft for the past few days and it's almost done, just a few more things to do.  Any guesses?

Have a wonderday!

Party City - Fun Finds!

I was out and about the other day and stopped by Party City to pick up something.  I walked over towards the party favors section and to my surprise there was dozens of items to pick from that were doll sized!

I only chose three items, but there was lots to pick from.  They were only 60¢ each.  And some had characters on them, while some were plain.  I mostly picked from the section without the characters on the items.

So first I found this Rubix cube, it is definitely not Rubix brand, but it's adorable and perfectly sized for the dolls.

There are two pink, blue, green, white, and yellow sides.

The next item is a small paint set.  I just thought it was cute and perfectly size.

The paint set really works!  I hope to use it one day in a photoshoot, hopefully.

And the last item I got is probably my favorite item I picked up.  And I was quite excited when I found this.  It's a barrel of monkeys!

The monkeys are so cute and little.

Molly wanted to be in the picture too.

I hope you liked the things I found.  Have a wonderday!

Fourth of July Photoshoot!

Happy 4th Of July!  Here is a photoshoot with some outfits I sewed myself.

Have a safe and happy 4th of July!  Have a wonderday!
