A Dress in Mint

It was such a beautiful day I couldn't resist going outside for a little photo shoot in my new dress.  I'm so glad it's spring!  How is spring where you are?

The Perfect Accessories

 Whether it's spring, summer, fall, or winter you always need the perfect accessories to go with your outfit.  One of our lovely sponsors, Michelle, from Cinder Frost Studios sent us these adorable accessories to review.  Thank you so much!
First, we have a sparkly, gold scarf.  If you haven't guessed it already, we LOVE scarves.  It is very well made and adds a pop to every outfit.

 Next, we got a grey, knit hat.  The colors are very pretty and neutral so the hat goes with everything.  The quality is amazing!

And last, but not least, is this lovely, silver necklace.  It is super cute and goes with everything!  We wear this almost every day.  (If you haven't noticed, it's in lots of pictures on this blog.)

Thank you so much Michelle for sending us these items from your amazing shop Cinder Frost Studios.  Be sure to check out her lovely Etsy shop here:

Stay cool in this hot weather!

Riding Our Bike!

 Hey everyone!  A few weeks ago we got our bike from Ebay!  My sisters and I have all been learning how to ride it.  It was a bit scary at first, but now I've got the hang of it.

 Do you like my outfit?  It's what I wore on the 4th of July.  Our 4th was a lot of fun.  We went to a parade, fireworks, and had barbeque!  Next year, I want to be in the parade!

Happy 4th of July

Hey everyone!  Happy 4th of July!  Have a great (and yummy!) time!  Have fun and stay safe.  We are visiting family right now, but once we get back we will post pictures of what we wore.  Did you go to a parade?  We did and got super wet from water guns and a fire truck! :)  Did you have or are you going to have a barbeque?

Make a Rain Poncho

 Hey there!  I don't know about you, but where we live it's been raining almost non-stop for the past several weeks!  So to stay dry we are going to show you how to make a rain poncho.

First, your going to need an old shower curtain, table cloth, or plastic bag.  We found this plastic stuff in the scrap bin at the fabric store.  Place a dinner plate on it and draw a circle about 3 inches bigger all the way around it.  Cut out the circle.

 Fold the circle in half and place your doll on it in the middle.  Mark where her shoulders are.

With it still folded cut a half circle.  Open it and see if it is big enough for your doll's head to fit through.  If not fold again and cut a deeper half circle.

Stay dry (or cool if it is really hot where you live).

Get Ready for Summer!

First off I want to say that we had an awesome DIY post planned today.  We took the pictures this morning and went to load them on and BAM!  They wouldn't show up!  But they show up on the card.  We tried other SD cards took a few pictures and the same thing happened.  I even tried putting the SD card in my mom's camera and it still wouldn't work.  So please pray that everything starts working properly again! :/  Now onto today's post.
With summer here your doll will probably need a few new items for her wardrobe.  Who doesn't like new things in her closet  First, there is this GORGEOUS pink, damask dress and this beautiful aqua blue and white dress from The Whimsical Doll 2.

 
 Wouldn't these be lovely for a picnic?

Next we have a neon, pink swimsuit from Mena Bella.  Isn't is adorbs?  Who doesn't want one?  Neon pink is the perfect color for summer.


Also from Mena Bella is this pretty peplum top and skort.  Peplum is very popular right now and the colors would compliment almost any doll.

First Day of Camp!

Today was the first day of Camp Doll Diaries!  As soon as we arrived we went to check.  We had to wait a while because the line was really long.

 Finally Marisol checks in.  Our camp leader, Grace, was checking in everyone.  She is super nice!

Elizabeth is still waiting!  She has a huge bag!  She is wearing a headband that Angelique from My American Girl's Story sent us.  Isn't it adorbs?!?!  She is also wearing some chocolate chips converse that our lovely sponsor Ada from Release Rain sent us.  They are very well made, super easy to get on, and they are a neutral color so they go with lots of outfits.

Sonali and I chatted about what activities we are planning to do at camp while we waited for the other to check in.

Finally everyone checked in and we head to our cabin! 

A closer look at the sign.

 

Oh no!!!  There is only room for three in a cabin!  Some of us are going to have to camp in a tent!

I called the top bunk right away.  Marisol wasn't to happy about it! :)

Elizabeth was reading the schedule for meals and activities.

Ahhh!  Know I'm going to snuggle under my warm covers for a nice sleep.  I can't wait for tomorrow and all of the fun camp activities to begin!

Have a nice night!

DIY Swimsuit Cover-Up

Happy June!  To get into the summer spirit I decided to show you all how to make a DIY swimsuit cover-up inspired by THIS human sized one on Pinterest..  These are great to toss on when you want to take a break from the water or you want to grab a quick snack before you hop back in.  I know I will be using this all summer.  I practically live in the water in the summer!

 

1.  Cut a rectangle of cotton fabric (we recommend using an old t-shirt) 6 inches wide and 19 inches long

2.  Cut 3, 1/2inch strips and braid together.  

3.  Cut attach the braid to one end and the side like in the picture.  Repeat on other side.  Sew.

To Wear It:

4.  Lay it flat with your doll on top.

5.  Take one side, bring it across your doll and slide their arm through the braided strap.

6.  Bring the other side across.

What do you think?  I can't wait to use mine!  (She means OURS!-Elizabeth)

Happy Summer!
