Right
now I am knee-deep in grad school and I go shopping to "clear my
mind" and keep me sane. With the holidays coming up it gets expensive
buying toy after toy so I have decided I am going to save a little money and
make some. My daughter LOVES American Girl doll stuff but come on....it costs a
fortune. Luckily, my parents are building all the grandchildren a doll house to
fit 18" dolls. I have been going to Goodwill (my favorite store ever) and
finding amazing wooden chairs, benches, tables, beds, wagons, bathtubs, etc. to
go inside the houses. Great money savor right there. Just clean up the items,
add some paint if desired, and ta-da! I also found an adorable little picnic basket that is
the perfect size for the dolls. I am going to make cute little foods out of
felt for the basket. I have made life-size pasta, cookies, and sushi out of felt before, now I
am just going to make them doll size. I will have to upload pictures once they
are done. In case you are wondering, I have gone ahead and uploaded a picture
tutorial of the life-size felt sushi rolls.
