Family Dollar Haul

 

Mama found some really nice things at the Family Dollar over the summer, and I wanted to share them with you.

Our first item is a wooden sign that is shaped like a surfboard and features palm leaves, flamingos and the word "Aloha" written in pink, glittery letters. This will most likely go into our bathroom, since we want to keep the theme of the bathroom in a flamingo/ocean/mermaid design.

This is a little clear plastic dresser, that will be perfect for a night table in the bedroom.

I never thought I would say this about a trash can, but this one is super cool! It looks just like the big one we have outside for all our trash. It even has working wheels! Of course this one is not meant to be put on the curb for the trash truck to come by and empty it, but instead it will look so cute in our kitchen.

Next we have a globe. We really love this one because it's so big, so we can see all the countries of the world a lot better. Another thing we really like is that the land masses are kept in a silver color, while all the oceans are shown in black.

These are some adorable little plates, shaped like conversation bubbles.

They each have a saying on them, such as "choose joy", "choose love", and "choose happy".

Here are more of these cute plates, but these are star-shaped, and Luciana especially loves these because they are fashion inspired.

One of them has a little heart and the saying "Glamour never takes a day off", while another one has a pair of sunglasses, and the third features a high heel shoe.

Mama also found these amazing battery operated lights for us! There are ten spheres made out of wire; two each in red, green, blue, purple, and gold. I'm not sure yet where we will put them, but I'm sure we'll find a great place for them when the time comes.

The last thing we got in this haul is a light-up sign. It comes with several sheets of letters, numbers, and symbols, which we can stick to the front of the sign. Then all that's left to do is insert batteries, and switch the sign on. I really like this!

Thank you for joining me! We will see each other again real soon 😊

Dollar Tree Haul

 

During a recent visit to the Dollar Tree, Mama found a few really neat things she brought home to us. Let me show you what they are!

These are foam rollers that we can use to curl our hair. They're really soft, so we can even leave them in while we're sleeping.

Here we have some little tubs that are perfect for the laundry room, the play room, the craft room, or anywhere else where some extra storage is needed. They came in a pack of five.

Mama found these milky white crates and got two of them. We're thinking of transforming them into a shelf unit.

This is a small caddy; very similar to the big ones many people use to store cleaning supplies in. I think we will use it in the craft room.

Here we have a small two-drawer unit. Mama bought five of them. They came in different colors, but she got them all in pink, since this is a color we love. We will most likely use them all through the house.

Mama also found this awesome cookware! It came with a round pan, spatula, butcher knife, and two food items. This is perfect for making a big meal!

Here is another cooking set; this time with a square griddle pan. I'm modeling with both sets, so you can see the size comparison.

I hope you enjoyed this haul, and hopefully we will see each other again soon 😊

Our Generation Gourmet Kitchen

 

The Gourmet Kitchen was manufactured by the Battat Company for the Our Generation doll line, and sold at Target.

This beautiful kitchen comes in a bright pink color with a glitter effect. The accent wall behind the stove, the burners, as well as the pretend kitchen clock are light pink in color. It also features a white trim, window, and white heat regulation knobs. The stove top and ice cream maker are colored black, and the hardware is chrome in color. It is made entirely out of sturdy plastic, with the burners being made out of metal.

The kitchen is completely playable, and all doors open. The shelf inside the oven can be completely removed, and so can the shelves inside the dishwasher. There are several shelves and storage compartments, including a little "secret" compartment behind the kitchen clock. The drawer underneath the oven can also be removed, and is able to hold items, such as cookware.

 

The refrigerator is also completely playable. The two big doors open and feature little shelving units on each side. The two upper shelves on the left have lids that can be opened to add items. The shelves inside the main part of the fridge can be completely removed and rearranged. The bins as well as the freezer compartment on the bottom are also removable for easy access.

My Life As Hello Kitty Part Play Set

This awesome outfit and play set is sold exclusively at Walmart for the My Life As doll line. We got it as a bundle on Walmart's website.

The outfit consists of a pink leotard that features a Hello Kitty character as well as three dark yellow rhinestones.

The skirt, or tutu, is made in two layers. The bottom layer is worked out of glittery pink tulle with a black trim, and the top layer is made out of glittery purple tulle, also with a black trim. The waistband is pink elastic.

The jacket is made out of a shiny material and has little Hello Kitty faces printed on both sides in the front. The sleeves are black, and the words Hello Kitty are printed in white on the left sleeve. The trim of the jacket is white and dark pink, and it has a working zipper.

Also included with the outfit is a blue hanger.

Here I'm modeling the leotard, which could also be used for ballet, gymnastics, or even as a swimsuit.

Here is the leotard combined with the skirt/tutu.

And here we have the complete outfit. It didn't come with shoes, so I decided not to wear any in the pictures either.

Let's see more....

Decorated Stoneware Bowls

Hello, doll friends!

Today I would like to show you something Mama found while shopping at Walmart.

Aren't these bowls beautiful? I absolutely love the designs on them, and the colors are so happy and vibrant!

Mama found them in the isle with the dishes, and the sticker inside said "Pioneer Woman", so that must be the line they belong to.

They measure 3 inches in diameter, and 1.75 inches in height, and are perfect for serving food, mixing dough for baking, or for display with fruit inside.

They are stoneware and breakable, so we have to be careful with them, but they will make a wonderful addition to the kitchen, or to any other room.

Until next time!

❤ Maria ❤
