IKEA style mini doll house!

 I've been wanting the IKEA bookshelf/dollhouse for a while. When I finally decided to go purchase one I find out they are discontinued!

Luckily my husband said he could make one for me! We found very similar wood planks and made the height a bit taller and wider than IKEA's to suit the American Girl mini dolls better. Ours is 24" by 24".

 It's not fully decorated yet, but I LOVE IT!!

Mega-Bloks custom mega-mini dolls

 The Mega-Bloks (Mega Construx) brand made several American Girl building sets and various figures around 2016-18. We have many (most?) of the sets. My favorites are the historical characters. HOWEVER, they didn't make all of the historical characters in mega-mini figures, so I created some myself. 

Including a mega-mini figure of ME at 10 years old! LOL



Back row: Kaya, Josefina, Addy, Kirsten, Samantha & Claudie

Front row: Molly, Nanea, Maryellen, Melody, Julie, Jess & me!


Here is a display of my sets:

Mini-Claudie

 Yes, another custom mini doll here. This one is made from a Lori mini doll rather than an American Girl mini doll. I hand made her dress and hand knit her cardigan! And her little Dizzy Dot that I needle felted.

Caring for Baby dolls!

 American Girl has come up with 8" baby dolls (like Baby Polly, only hard bodied). We have the first one they came out with and the darker skinned version.

And then Girl of the Year, Corinne has a baby brother and they made HIM (Blix) out of a CFB doll! YAY!

I've been knitting and making outfits and other things for them. They are so fun

Welcome Remington!

 Finally came to the conclusion that an American Girl designed boy doll needed to come here to live with our two custom boys and Logan. So introducing a brand new #75, Remington!

Couples Dolls

 It has been in the back of my mind for a while to make mini-me's for my daughters-in-law. The boys already have mini me's and since the girls already LOOK like American Girl dolls, this was a rather easy project! So here are the dolls that represent our sons and their wives as 10 year olds!

Charlotte (#8) already was the mini-me that this d-i-l had for herself; Prisca was a modern Josefina already in my collection; Saylor (#55) is a new addition to American Girl Rescue!
