My Version of The Slow Cooker Dinner Set


Hi. So as you all know on Saturday I did a post on AG's new release. And you also know that The Slow Cooker Dinner Set was on my favorites list. But with a price tag of $58 I basically have no money to buy it so... I made my own and here are the results.


It was really fun to make, but the lid was challenging and it took me two tries to get it right. I did some variations on the food, because I had it already, so it took up less time to finish.

Here is the actual slow cooker set from American Girl.
Do you think it is more fun to make things or buy them?

Make a "Mirror Phone" for Ever After High Dolls

Hi! Today I am going to show you how to make a mirror phone (IPhone) for your Ever After High dolls.
Cedar and Cupid are taking a selfie to crownlaod (download) to there Fablebook (facebook) page. 



You will need: coloured foam, glue gun, a black marker, paper, sequins, and scissors. 


First cut out a rectangular piece of paper, whatever size you want your phone to be.

Then cut out a piece of foam and glue a sequin on the back. The sequin will be your camera. Next attach your paper to the foam.



Next use your marker to draw on a screen. I choose to draw on a screen saver, but you can leave your screen blank if you like.

Now your dolls can stay up to date with all the latest news.

Make A Basketball Net For Your Dolls

Hello. Today for your I have a tutorial on how to make a basketball net for your dolls. You will need duct tape (black or silver), scissors, old markers (all the same size) or a wooden dowel, netting material of any kind (I used an orange net), wire and cardboard.


 First push all of your old markers together.

Then use duct tape to cover the whole thing.

Next cut out a rectangular piece of cardboard (this will be your base).

Then also cover it with duct tape.

Cut out four small pieces of cardboard and cover them with duct tape.
Then attach them to the base and to the marker pole.this will hold your pole up.
If you need to you can also duct tape to the pole first around the bottom.

Next cut out a piece similar to the size of your base and cover it with duct tape except
for a small square at the bottom. 

 Then put a piece of duct tape in the middle and colour around the outside if you would like.
 Then you can attach this to the top of your marker pole with a couple strips of duct tape.

 Collect your net and wire.
 Create an circle with your wire and feed the net through. Make sure your hole is big enough for your basketball to go through.

 Cut of the bottom of the net and now your net is ready to be attached.

Use duct tape to attach the net and your basketball hoop is ready for action.

Halloween is just around the corner and so of course your dolls are going to need some candy. So today I will show you how to make some gumdrops for your dolls.
 Make a half circle shape with some clay.
 Make them in tons of different colours. Then put them in the oven for how ever long it says on the package.
 Then gather markers, white paper, a pencil, scissors and tape (not shown).
 Cut out a small portion of the paper.
 Cut a second one the same size. This will be your package.
Draw a gumdrop on the cover and write gumdrops.

Then colour it in.

 Then enter an ingredients list on the back, tape the two sides of the paper together and then the bottom of each paper.
Then fill your bags with your gumdrops and let your dolls enjoy a sweet treat!

Isabelle's Studio

Hello.I have liked Isabelle's studio every since American Girl introduced it. I would probably buy it if it wasn't so expensive. So I decided to make my own version. So here are some pictures of my finished version of Isabelle's Studio.

That's all for now.
