My Life As... - Movie Night Accessories

As I went searching the past few weeks, I have been trying to find this accessory pack, but alas I couldn't.  I ventured on to eBay and someone was selling it for a reasonable price.  Most people try to sell it for over $20, it is only about $7 in the stores, so I didn't want to pay any more than $5 more.  And the seller I bought it from had it reasonably priced, just had to pay shipping.

Anywhos, on to the accessory pack!

To be honest, I really wanted this set for the 3-D glasses and soda bottles.

American Girl Items!

I am lucky enough to have one of my local Toys R Us to have an American Girl section in the store.  I don't have an AG store close to me, it would take over four hours to get to one, so having a section in Toys R Us is insanely cool to me.

If you didn't know, American Girl is now being sold at some Toys R Us stores, for locations click on this link!

They currently just sell Wellie Wishers, Truly Me, and I believe will eventually have the 2017 Girl of the Year.  I am not sure about the last one, but I know they did have Lea, so hopefully they will have Gabriela too.

I bought three things and was so excited to see the section at Toys R Us.  When I checked out I even got an American Girl bag to have my purchases in.  It was a fun experience and I will hopefully be heading back to get a few more things when they rotate their products.

Anyways on to my purchases!

My Life As... - Doll Shopping Basket Review

My Life As... is a Walmart brand of 18 inch dolls.  The dolls are cute and they have lots of different sets for 18 inch dolls at reasonable prices.  I was hoping to find a different set, but couldn't find it.  The section at the store I went too was kind of bare.  I imagine it's quite popular because of the prices and fun sets they have.

I picked up the Doll Shopping Basket.  I don't have a lot of food for my dolls and this basket has the perfect sizes.  I do think I may want to get a second one because it comes with one of everything, but it's an adorable set.

Our Generation - Take A Letter Review!

I went on a small shopping spree a couple of weekends ago and bought a few doll things.  I am excited to share them with you!

Now when it comes to Our Generation, everyone knows it is a hit or miss when you go in the store.  So I went just see what they have.  I am fortunate enough to have multiple Targets in my area and I can usually go to either of them and find different sets.

I traveled to a further away one and I was hoping to find something (I will have a post on this later!), but I found another instead.  I found the Take A Letter set!  I was so excited, I love typewriters and we had one when I was younger that we used for fun.  So without further ado, here are a few pictures from the set.

Here is the product in the box.  I like how they package their products, you can see everything.

Bedroom Set Up

Here is a video setting up my American Girl doll, Emily's room!

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!
