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!

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!
