Adollable Dolls Fashion: Lace

Hey everyone! Today we have a fashion post.  It's a series we're starting.  There's not any specific times well be posting about this series.  Just whenever we feel like it.  Ok, so recently when we went on a shopping trip we noticed there was one thing that was everywhere.  Can you guess it?  Yup, lace!  We love lace.  It's so pretty and perfect for spring and summer.  So anyways here are some pictures of the lace clothes in our closet. 

Here we have shorts with lace pockets.  We actually did a DIY in a post recently on how to add lace to back pockets.  You can see it here.

This shirt we got from Liberty Jane and we absolutely adore it!  The color, lace, patterns......everything!

Here is another lace shirt.  This one is completely lace and is an off the shoulder top we made with Liberty Jane patterns.  The light green color is a very pretty color for spring.

And last but not least is a lace scarf.  We actually made it using the same lace as the shirt above.  Throwing on a lacey scarf is the perfect way to spice up an outfit.  You can visit this post here to find out how to make infinity scarves.

That's all for today!  We hope you enjoyed today's post!  What's your favorite spring item?

P.S.  The green lace shirt and scarf will be on our Etsy as soon as we get everything set up!!!!!

Blogging Tips

Hola!  Today we'll be sharing with you some blogging tips to make it more fun and enjoyable.

1.  Write your ideas down in a notebook.  We usually think of awesome ideas when we don't have time to do them, so we write them down for later when we need inspiration for a blog post.  We actually got this idea from The Spicy's.  This is very helpful to us, especially since whenever we have time to do a post we can't think of any good ideas.

2.  Use lots of pictures.  The more the merrier!  Make sure if you have any super long, boring posts you use pictures to spice it up, even if you're not showing how to do something.  I think it looks much more interesting and I'm more likely to read a post if there is pictures.  Make sure though that your pictures are good quality and there not dark, messy, and blurry.

3.  Have a title photo for your posts.   (Like the first photo.)  Using a title photo grabs your readers' eyes.  Plus, it can give them idea what the post is about.  (But not always.)  If your showing how to do something, make sure the photo is of the finished product.

4.  Blog regularly.  This doesn't mean you have to blog every day, but try your best to blog at least once a week.  People are more likely to check your blog often if they know you are posting regularly rather than every few months.

That's all we have for today!  We hope this has been helpful!

How to do the High Ponytail

Hi!  Today, I'll be showing how I do high ponytails.  High ponies are super cute and look great with almost every outfit.

Gather your hair on top of your head.  That's right, ON TOP.  (I recommend holding your doll upside down and then gathering the hair up with your free hand.)


Secure with a hair elastic.  Brush out the pony, remember to brush out the underside too.


Spread the hair out (like the picture below) and comb.  I recommend putting one hand around the elastic and laying the hair on top of the hand and then combing.  Fluff it out and adjust it until you like the look.




Doesn't it look so cute?
