Drinks For Dolls

Hello, everyone!

Mama found these super cute drinks at a recent shopping trip and brought them home. They are the perfect size for us! They all have lip gloss or lip balm inside as an added bonus 😊

The ones with the straw and the pop cans came from the party supply section at the Walmart Supercenter, and the coffee/hot chocolate cups came from Big Lots.

Until next time!

Summer Snapshot

Summer has come to an end, and the cooler fall temperatures have set in. Right now the weather is a bit strange; in the morning it's very chilly, but a couple of hours later you can still go outside with shorter pants, a t-shirt, and without a jacket. In the evening the temperatures drop again.

Mama showed us a snapshot earlier today she took of us during the heat of the summer, which, where we live, was still a few weeks ago. This picture, however, was taken in August, and Mama forgot all about it until now. Of course I have to show it to you 😊

Here we are, on a walk with our puppies. Luciana has Stella, and I have Teddy. Since it was so hot that day, we didn't want to leave the house without a cold, refreshing beverage....after all, you got to stay hydrated! Luciana chose a coke, and I settled for a grape soda.

We had a good summer, and I hope that fall will be a fun time as well.

Until next time!

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....
