Hairstylist at an AG Birthday Party!!

     Yes, you read right.  A member of my church offered to pay me to come to her daughter's six year old birthday party and style all the doll's hair.  Of course, I accepted!  What wouldn't be more of a joy to do?

     Here are all the little girls' dolls and bears(since some didn't have an AG doll).  It was so cute how it was all setup.  Every doll had a place setting and cup and a plate from the American Girl crafts at Michaels.

      
     Here was my little doll hair salon.  
     What was quite funny was that two girls brought Kit and one girl brought a short-haired My American Girl.  Talk about coming up with a hairstyle for those!!  I decided each doll would have a crown braid with a cute ribbon(as below).

     She doesn't look as good as when I styled it, but these are younger girls.:)

    
     And the birtjday girl's dolls.
     It was such a cute birthday party!  All the girls danced to funny music, made a doll-sized purse, and decorated cupcakes.  I can't wait to one day do this again!  It was so fun!

Caroline is Here!!

      Well, she's finally here!  Her hair is stunning, just stunning.  And her whole collection is just incredible, but I just chose a couple of my favorite items of her collection to discuss.

      This dress is soooo pretty!  Purple looks so good on her.  I love every design, detail, and color!  I know girls her age had to wear dresses that short, but I still wish her dress would go to the floor.

      My favorite part of the whole outfit is the headband made of braided hair.  It's so cool!  This is definitely what I'm getting for Christmas!:)

      Her parlor set is amazing.  It's so detailed.  I could never afford it, though.:(  It's seems very well made, but $300 is a lot of money!  The window box is my favorite part.

      This coat is so cute!!!  The color is very unique; however, it looks perfect with the grey.

      Reindeer ears!!!!   Love them!  Again, just such a cute outfit!

      I would also enjoy getting this.  The miniature gingerbread house is adorable!  And the sprinkles, candy canes, and other candies are just eaten up with cuteness!

     This dress is so classy and beautiful.  The bodice design is gorgeous!!

     Also, stay tuned for an interview with Kathleen Ernst, author of Caroline Abbott's book series.

American Girl Store Part 2

     For part 2 of my trip to the American Girl store posts, I am going to show you a lot of the close-ups of the My American Girl displays.

 

      Here are the store exclusives.  They had a bathing suit set which was so adorable!  Unfortunately I didn't buy it.:(

      The exclusive pajamas were so pretty!! 

      I really like the mittens, scarves, and beret, but with the pink outfit, it was a little too loud.

      Can you believe that the doll storage cabinet was sold out at the store??  I don't think I could ever spend that much money on a cabinet!!

     This outfit looked so cute on this doll!!!  I love the cheerleading outfit, but  I don't care for the Inner Star U symbol on it.  It's not as real as American Girl could make it.

      I LOVE this tutu!  The whole outfit is so feminine and pretty.

      This doll was a bit of a surprise when seen in person.  On line and in the catalogs, she has light blond hair; however, in person her hair almost is a dirty blond.  Don't get me wrong, she still is a beautiful doll, but I wish her hair would have been lighter. 

      The My American Girl doll display one and...............................

 display two.

      The colors are absolutely perfect in the Butterfly Pajamas outfit! 

      Here is some of the hair and under garment stuff they had for the dolls.

      I just liked this picture of this doll, so I thought I'd put it on here.  This is at the doll hair salon.

     And here is all the camping outfits and accessories.

     More to come soon!!
