How to make a Cropped Top for your Doll!

     As Hannah and I were preparing for the upcoming photo shoot, Hannah found a baggy shirt that we hadn't really used for the dolls much, and thought of the idea to make an off the shoulder cropped top! So here is how we did it:
   
    First, you'll want an oversize doll shirt that is pretty plain. Then you'll want to cut the shirt as shown below.

 And that's basically all there is to it.... you can even use the coller of the shirt as a headband for your dolls and the bottom part of the shirt as a headband for yourself, if the shirt is stretchy
Here is Sara, our cat, relaxing on the shirt:
And here she is looking out the window as we were trying to take some pictures
      So that is one little craft we did for our photo shoot, and there will be more to come :). Also, I have set up the new tab for contacting us, which is where you will find our e-mail. If you try this activity, we would love to see some pictures of the finished product! Thanks!

The Doll Guess #14! (CLosed)

    
CLOSED

     Here we go again :), hopefully this picture will be a bit harder than last weeks. Like always, the basic rules are: You must guess the doll AND the outfit and you only get another guess every time there's a hint. For more specific directions you can go to The Doll Guess Rules tab. Here's the picture!
      Have fun! The first hint is on Monday, if it hasn't been guessed by then :).

     Congratulations Rawan! Rawan correctly guessed Cécile in her Nightgown! Wow that went fast, again! Here is your award Rawan!
Congrats!

Boredom...

     Is it just me, or does everyone get really excited for summer, and then during the summer they get really bored, it might just be me. I'm currently working on a photostory, though, I have noticed that my dolls don't have many summer outfits...Also, there isn't much new stuff going on at American Girl. So, out of my boredom and have nothing to post, I edited this picture.
Before:
After:
What do you think?

I also made this collage, from all the pictures I took on that specific photo shoot.

     The red border seems overwhelming, don't you think? I can never choose the right border color.

PS. Happy June!!!
