My recent eBay find has me reminiscing the good 'ol days of American Girl— you know, when the dolls' collections were huge and each item had a story behind it? Don't get me wrong, I really do like some of the characters American Girl has debuted in the past years. Yet there's just something about the Historical Characters and the stories told through their collections that makes these dolls even more special. I guess perhaps it's the vision Pleasant Rowland had when she creat

You're probably thinking- American Girl Store Denver? Don't you mean Atlanta? Well, you did read that title right- Denver! My sisters and I usually only visit the AG Store in Atlanta (since it's the closest to where we live), but when my Dad took our family on a vacation to Colorado for his job, we jumped at the chance to finally visit a new store. And wow, it was amazing! 😍 We loved every minute of it. ❤️ It was nice to explore a totally different American Girl Store than

“There! That’s the last one.”, I said, pushing a heavy cardboard box into the room. Wiping beads of sweat from my forehead, I breathed a sigh of victorious relief. This week, I moved from Seattle all the way across the country to my new home. It was quite the change for me- no more city skylines, rain, or visits to the Beanery. While I did miss my old home, this new place I had arrived at seemed full of surprises and adventure, and I couldn’t wait to explore (and vlog!) more.

A new girl has made a surprise arrival at our dollhouse this week... Say hello to Rebecca! 💜 I did not purchase Rebecca, nor did my sisters. She was a surprise doll that we won in a giveaway! Each Monday, Pixie Faire (A website that sells doll clothes patterns and much more) hosts fun giveaways that anyone can enter. The prize? A unique doll and handmade outfit! 😄 Since DollBaker24 already owns Rebecca herself, this sweet little doll now belongs to DollPandaLover. She just

3 weeks ago, my sister, DollBaker24, and I both celebrated our birthdays together. Being the American Girl fans that we are, we chose to decorate inspired by some of our favorite AG characters- the Wellie Wishers! 🌷 ☺️ Since our birthdays are in the cold month of January, I thought it would be fun to do something a little different this year and have a spring/summer theme. The Wellie Wishers are all about flowers, sunshine, and gardening, so they were perfect for our idea.

Breaking News!! Today, the 18 inch Tenney Grant doll has leaked! Photo Credit: @agkameo on Instagram It appears to be that American Girl has chosen to use the new type of boxes for Tenney Grant; the same one used for Gabriela McBride. Tenney's box is a blue/purple color with a small photo of her book. If you look closely, you can see the book behind the doll! Tenney herself will arrive wearing a peach colored shirt that ties in the front, a light denim vest, and a burgundy le

January sure is a cold and chilly month! ❄️ Has it snowed were you live? At my house, the weather is way too warm. 😛 However, that doesn't stop Millie! Snow or not, she can always pretend that she's an ice queen like Elsa in her Little Gloriana Princess Dress! 💙 This was my first time making artificial snow in Photoshop. I was using a free snowflake overlay from online, but wasn't satisfied with the results. Then I gave Photoshop brushes a try, and it turned out so much b

Three new members have been welcomed into the Doll Days family over the holidays! 🎉 This Christmas, my sisters and I each received the American Girl Doll we were hoping for, and we are so blessed and thankful. ☺️ ❤️ I am very excited to share them with you guys, so today I will be introducing each doll and along with their different personalities! Meet the newest additions- Danielle (Truly Me #66), Lucia (Truly Me #28), and Ella Paige (Truly Me #65)! Let's start with Luci

It's that time of year again! Christmas is right around the corner- only ONE month away. 🎄 Since Christmas is a time of joy and giving, what better way to celebrate than with a holiday giveaway! This year, I am giving away a very special prize package consisting of 2 new items from American Girl. Let's take a look at what they are! The first item is the Holiday Penguin Pajamas for dolls. Sierra is modeling my own set for you to see. 😉 These cuddly pajamas will make any dol

Why hello, there! You came at just the right time- Bo and I are in a pickle. We're trying to compose a new song for the giveaway winner, but we just can't get things right. Grrr... Ruff, ruff! Yes, that's right Bo. Things have been rough. We've tried everything from booming base notes all the way up to the highest keys, but nothing seems to work! Oh, what are going to do?! Woof! Woof, woof! What's that? Try looking in the music book? I don't really see how that will help. Wo

Boa tarde, meu amigos! (Good afternoon, my friends!) I thought I'd try a little Portuguese today. ;) Anyway, our yard is currently being landscaped, so the grass got ripped out before I could take photos. :( On the bright side, I did have the opportunity to review Lea Clark's Wish Bracelets for Girls from American Girl. Let's get started! Lea's Wish Bracelets cost $8 each. That seems overpriced to me, but I guess it's because of the metal charm. The bracelets are made of a ve

School is out, and Summer is here! Are you excited? We went to the beach a while back, and I brought Lea with me for a photoshoot. It was very windy, and she almost fell a few times, but the photos turned out pretty good, so I think it was worth it. ;) I don't what happened to the back of Lea's hair in the picture above. It looked like this when I uploaded the photo, and I can't figure out how to fix it... :( Oh well. This photo is my very favorite. :) Here are some behind-th

The new Wellie Wishers line (available June 24th) now has it's own section on American Girl's Publishing site. There are no dolls or books for sale yet, but you can see picures of the stories and a few illustrations around the website. There are covers to the 3 WW books found on Amazon. I could make out the first and third title which are "The Riddle of the Robin" and "The Muddily Puddily Show", but one of the words in the second title is kind of blurry. It looks like it says

American Girl is moving their flagship store in New York to a new location, and the new store will have a different look than the previous American Girl stores.

Now, nearly two decades after it opened its first location, the brand is developing the "store of the future." In fall 2017, Americ

Hippity Hoppity, Easter's on it's way! Can you believe it? Easter is tomorrow! Lanie and Lulu are especially excited. We're visitng our grandparents this year and going to a sunrise service- a church service thats starts at sunrise! I've never been to one before, so I can't wait! :) Since Lanie loves bunnies, and Lulu is a bunny, I thought they would be perfect together for an Easter photoshoot. Enjoy! I hope everyone has a safe and "hoppy" Easter! -American Girl Doll Crafter

As you can tell, I am in love with Peeps! :P I decided to make some for my dolls using clay, and they turned out pretty good! I made 1 chick, 2 bunnies, and lots of jelly beans! I actually had 3 bunnies, but sadly, one broke. :( This one is my favorite because, well.... it's pink! :) The chick was more of a challenge to make. It's very curvy, and the beak was a little hard to do, but I still had fun. Um... The jelly beans didn't turn out that well. I tried to paint them, but

American Girl has posted the trailer for Lea's movie on their youtube channel! The title is Lea To The Rescue, unlike the leaked title which was rumored to be Lea Leads The Way. The movie is avaible for pre-order on Amazon, and will be sold on June 14. The description for the movie says... Born for adventure, Lea Clark heads deep into the Brazilian rainforest, where her most exciting story awaits. When Lea's brother, Zac, goes missing while studying the ecology in South Amer

What did you think of American Girl's new Spring releases? I thought it was very fun, fresh, and interesting. Everything made me want to have more warmer weather. :P Today, I'm going to be sharing with you My Thoughts on the new items. Let's get started! 1. Spring Breeze - $32 This dresh has a very fresh and spring-y feel to it. DollBaker24 and I really like it! I think we'll both be saving up for it. ;) It's neat how the layer of tulle can be taken off or left on, and the s

For my birthday, I recived a very special present from my Mom and Dad. It was Lea! You do not know how excited DollBaker24 and I were when we opened her. Lea is gorgeous, and I'm so grateful to have her. Today, I'm going to be sharing a review of her with ya'll. Enjoy! Lea is priced at $120 and arrives in a colorful tribal-print dress with turquoise sandals. She also comes with an adorable messenger bag, compass, and the "Lea Dives In" book. Lea is definitely a unique doll. S
