Today the topic is highlights. American Girl has their own clip in highlight set. It comes in three colors blue, pink, and purple. They have pop open metal clips. Girls can comb these extensions, but other hair accessories like the curly pony tail cannot be brushed. These extensions are really easy to clip in and if the buyer is in a hurry she can just clip these in her dolls hair to make it more stylish. The only thing bad about these are that the clips are sharp and can cut little kids fingers. To learn more check out http://www.americangirl.com/play/doll-hair-and-care/index.php . Enjoy! :)
Yum! Chocolate! Today I will be reviewing Kit's Candy Making Set. I know I have not been doing very many crafts, but if any crafters have any requests please comment below. Okay now to start off this review I will name what is in this set. It comes with a pink dress, pink shoes, a basket, chocolate molds, fake chocolate bars, melting pots, bags, and fake chocolate bunnies. Personally I love this set. It is adorable. The fake chocolate bunnies are so realistic. The dress is is really cute. It's not a modern day dress and that's what I like about it. My least favorite part about this set is the chocolate. I mean they are really realistic, but I think it would have been better if American Girl made different sized chocolate pieces. Overall, I love this set and I totally recommend this for any of my viewers.
Today I will be doing my personal opinion on Girl of the Year 2014: Isabelle's Clothing Line. Starting off with what I think of all the pieces of the clothing line. I personally love all the clothing items. I think they are so adorable and they actually look like what some girls would wear in real life. Now for my favorite piece of the clothing line. My favorite piece is Isabelle's clothing line are her scrunch pants. They are so cute. The pants are a dark purple in color. They also have purple and light purple sparkles running across the top. Another one of my favorites is her pajamas. The top is dark purple with silver sparkles down the front. the pants are light purple with a ruffle on each leg. It comes with slippers that are the same color as the pants. My last favorite is Isabelle's metallic dress.It is a gold metallic colored dress with a pink belt, white t-shirt, purple leggings, and pink shoes. I think all of these pieces are adorable and I totally recommend them. Enjoy.
Here is a quick craft for St. Patrick's Day. They are green glitter shoes. The supplies the crafter will need are a plain white pair of American Girl doll shoes (Flats), small green ribbon, green glitter, a hot glue gun, glue, and Mod Podge. Start off by covering the shoe in the Elmer's glue. while it is still wet sprinkle on the green glitter until it covers the whole shoe. Wait until both shoes are dry. While waiting start making the bow out of the ribbon. Take a piece of ribbon about 6 in. long and fold it over only hot gluing the two ends together. Now pinch the middle of the now made hoop and wrap another piece of ribbon around the pinched area. Now the crafter should have a bow. Once the shoes are dry take some hot glue and glue the bows to the shoes and now they are done.
Valentine's Day is coming up real soon so here is a Valentine mailbox tutorial for American Girl Dolls. What the crafter will need is a small metal mailbox they are sold at Walmart or at any craft store, a small wooden pole or a paper tube, Sharpie markers or stickers, and a hot glue gun, super glue, or tape. Start off by gluing or taping the mailbox to the wooden pole. Then if the crafter would like to paint the pole the same color as the mailbox they can use spray paint or just regular paint. Then if the crafter decides to paint it wait for it to dry. Once dry the crafter can start decorating the mailbox with the Sharpies or stickers. Make it original. Once the crafter is done with decorating make little tiny Valentine notes to put inside. Now put it in a doll's room and
I know American Girl Dolls are a lot of money so here are some tips to get money for a doll. 1. Try finding jobs from your family members or neighbors to earn some money. 2. Sell lemonade in the summer it's an easy way to get some cash. 3. Have a yard sale. Sell some old things you don't use anymore. Now, when you get the money you probably won't have a place to put it so you won't have the urge to spend it. I recommend getting any type of container and tape or write a sign that says "AMERICAN GIRL DOLL" on the container so you know that the money needs to be saved. In just enough time you will have enough money to buy the doll. :)
She is finally here. Girl of the Year 2014! This is my review on the doll. she is very beautiful she is a ballerina and her line of clothing is so amazing. My favorite part about her is her hair extensions. They are pink and blonde that clip into her hair. She comes in a coral tee shirt with gold sequins a ballerina graphic and the ballerina tutu is mesh. Her pants are metallic silver and her shoes are gold glittery dance shoes. Her hair is in double twists so she is ready for dance class. She also comes with her very own paperback book. Now, her price. She costs $120.00 I know it's a lot, but it's all worth it. Her accessories that are sold separate include a closet that has a bar connected and when opened she has her very own sewing machine and sewing tools to make her own costumes. Also, her clothing line is to die for. One of my favorite outfits includes a black leotard, gold mesh tutu, flower bracelet, and silver dance slippers. That's all for now I hope all american girl lovers enjoy. If anyone happens to get Isabelle please comment below what you think of her. :)
This holiday season you are probably going on vacation. Well, here are some tips and tricks to pack your doll for vacation. Now, this all depends on where the traveler is going. My first tip is put the doll in tight clothing so it doesn't get caught on anything. Second, tie her hair back so it's not ripped out. Also, put shoes on that are tight and won't fall off. Now, on to packing. First, the traveler will need some kind of doll suitcase. Once that is found open it and see how much room is inside. If there isn't a lot I recommend not packing big puffy clothing. Now, if it has lots of space pack what ever is needed. Now, the location is essential. If the traveler is going to the beach I recommend packing some short sleeve shirts, pajamas, bathing suit, some shorts, a towel, some sunglasses (if the traveler has any), and a fancy dinner dress. If going somewhere chilly bring some long sleeve shirts, jeans or pants, a jacket, and a nice dinner dress. Now, the traveler will need something to do while on a plane or in a car. I recommend the doll's laptop or cell phone, magazines, and snacks if the doll gets hungry. That's it for the traveler blog.
Were coming down to the end of the list. Today were all about accessories. We have all accessories from science to music. To start off if the girl is into fashion I have the accessory for her. The hair and make up caddy. It's perfect for girls ready to do their hair and make up. It comes with curlers and other faux items. Now for the science kid in the crew. It's the science set. It comes with three faux test tubes, an apron, a science book, a science book, a microscope, and goggles. The outdoors girl needs the tent. The tent comes with the tent, a lantern, some snacks, and a water bottle. Finally, we have the thing for the musician. I think the flute would be great for any girl. It comes with a metal flute, a case lined with red velvet, a flute book, a fingering chart, and a stand. That's all for now. Enjoy.
Every doll needs a bed and furniture for their doll house. So thats whats up next on my list. Now I know the things at American Girl can be expensive, but I have some alternative tips to getting furniture for the doll house. First, for a bed use the box the doll came in. Use a blanket as a mattress or make a mattress yourself with some fabric. Now cut an 18" piece of fabric as a blanket. Now for pillows the crafter or decorator can make no sew pillows or ones that can be sewed. Now if the decorator doesn't want to make the bed they can always buy a already made bed on ebay or American Girl. For a chair I have bought one at Good Will, but the decorator can buy them anywhere. Even American Girl sells chairs and seating. Now for a desk the decorator just needs a box and stickers or any other decorating materials to make the desk pop. Make some pencils out of tooth picks and a black sharpie. That's it for this Christmas list.
