Fun finds!

Hey everyone! On Saturday I found some cool things for dolls at Hobby Lobby. I took some pictures along the way. Enjoy!

 First here is a really big book of American Girl stickers. It's not really for your dolls but it is doll related. :3 As you can see, there are stickers for every Historical doll. (Now known as BeForever) Even the retired ones. There are a total of 188 stickers. It is a little pricey for $5.00 but it is really cute. :D It would be perfect for a small but cute birthday present or a stocking stuffer.

 Next is a rug for your doll! I found this in the clearance section of the store and it is supposed to be a locker rug but it would be perfect for beside a doll bed or in the middle of a living area. There are different colors such as Blue, black, and hot pink. They are really cute! I am not sure of the price but I am sure it was reasonable.

 Next I'll be going into the wood section that you can paint yourself or do anything you want with it! Here is a doll "dresser" It is a jewelry box for girls but it is the perfect height for a doll dresser. I actually purchased it to see what I could do with it. So be on the look out for that upcoming post!

This little bench would be perfect for a mini doll. It is so adorable! I think that it would look really cute in white paint. :D  Also right beside the bench is a flower pot that would look really cute stained brown with a silk plant in it with some fake moss in the pot filling in the gap. Right? What do you think of all this?

Hope this helped you out with ideas of what crafty things you can do with your doll! What type of things have you found for you dolls? Thanks for reading!

And don't forget to enter my giveaway! It ends Wednesday. So hurry to enter. You can enter here. I will be giving away a scarf for your 18" doll. Handmade my me! I crocheted  it. Make sure to enter!

I am not really sure why! But all I new is that I loved dolls. :D

Christmas!

4. Are you excited for snow or are you very annoyed about it (like Ginny)?

Well, it never snows here where I live so I would gladly accept snow. XD

5. How did you come up with a name for your blog?

It was actually really random! I kept on brain storming ideas and AG Chick popped in my head! :)

6. What is the weirdest word you have ever heard?

I have no idea... Maybe grandiloquent? (It means that you like to say big words to show off)

7. Marvel Comics or DC comics? (we came up with this question because our bro was wearing a Spider Man shirt :))

Marvel all the way!!! No doubt...

8. What do you like best about blogging?

I really like to take pictures of my dolls and show others what I like and don't.

That is all of their questions! Thank you so much. :D

My Mom. My Mom does everything in my crazy big family's house! I hope I can be just like her one day when I have children of my own.

2. What was your first memory of American Girl?

Umm... Thinking of how they make the MAG's. I thought that you would send in a pic of the girl and they would make the doll according to how the girl looked. (I was 6 years old.) WHO WOULD THINK THAT? XD Apparently me...
3. How many doll's do you want altogether? 

Maybe 6 would be nice.

4. Do you prefer Historical or Beforever? 

I really like the new change. So BeForever. 

5. If or when you have went to an AG store, what would be the first thing you do their?

Take a picture in front of the store.
