Why Hello There! // Family Photo, Instagram?!

Hello! I am happy to say that most of my doll things are now unpacked, and I have been able to set up my doll rooms and take a few photos! I decorated for Christmas and put the tree up!

I took new headshots for each of my dolls because I started an Instagram account this week! I had wanted to do that for a while, since there is such a large doll photography community there. My account is @reveriedollsag and I hope to be posting quite frequently.

And a family photo!

Merry Christmas!

I've got a photo story coming soon!

Beth Visits a Ghost Town

During my trip to Yellowstone National Park, I visited Bannack State Park in Montana to see the ghost town! If you want to see the ghost town and buildings, you can go to my other blog. I dressed up Beth in a pioneer dress and bonnet I made a while ago.

She is in the upper floor hallway of the old hotel!

Outside one of the log cabins.

Thanks for stopping by!

Do you like to go to ghost towns?

Who Wore it Best? // Phoebe vs Cady vs Beth

It looks like I messed up my posting schedule, the next few weeks are going to be posted on Tuesdays!

The other day I was putting together an outfit on Cadence, then thought I should put it on Beth for photos. Instead of a photo shoot, I decided to do a Who Wore it Best?

So..... Who do you think wears this outfit the best?

Cady?

Beth?

Or perhaps Phoebe?

Vote in the comments!

When I was doing Beth's hair, I remembered that I left my doll hairbrush at the beach when I did my last photo story.... :/ So I had to use a plastic comb on their hair 😬

Also, I was spraying Beth's hair with water and had the spritz bottle backwards and sprayed myself directly in the face XD

Anyways, don't forget to vote!

Cadence's Secret // A Photo Story

Hello! I have decided to officially switch to posting only on Sundays, rather than twice a week. For now, I think this will work better. Also, be sure to check out my other blog where I will be posting every Tuesday!

I've been excited about this post for a while now, so here goes!

Cadence had a plan. Her new sisters, as she called them, were making her feel so welcome. She wanted to do something in return. 

So, she grabbed some supplies and stayed by the dining table for hours.

Suddenly, she saw Phoebe in the corner of her eye. Cadence looked up and shuffled her papers around.

"Hi," Cadence said casually.

Phoebe said, "What are you doing in here? It's been hours!"

Cadence replied, "Oh nothing, really."

Phoebe raised an eyebrow and squinted her eyes, "Ooookay then." She quickly left the room, leaving Cadence.

In the hallway, Phoebe stopped to think. What could Cadence be doing that she didn't want her to know about? What should she do about it? Beth would have an idea, Phoebe thought.

Phoebe found Beth and explained the suspicious situation with her.

"I wouldn't worry about it. Everyone needs alone time once in a while to work on their hobby." Beth stated. "Give her time, and maybe she'll tell you about it."

This didn't really satisfy Phoebe, but decided to take her advice.

Later that day, Maggie and Teddie were hanging out chatting, when Brooke approached them.

"Guys? Cadence says she has something she wants to show us. We're all gathering in the main room."

The main room buzzed with curiosity and anticipation. 

"This has to do with what I saw earlier!" Phoebe exclaimed to Brooke and Beth.

When the door opened, all eyes turned. 

Cadence stood with her hands behind her back, clearly hiding something.

"I've been working on something to show that I am grateful or everything you guys have done for me. I appreciate all your kindness so much." 

The room stayed silent. 

Cadence pulled something out from behind her back. It was a beautiful drawing of them all! 

They all gathered around looking at their new family portrait. Cadence was glad to find a way to show her sisters that she appreciated them.

My brother made this wonderful drawing of all my dolls for me! Since Cadence is an artist, I wanted to include the picture in a photo story! Here is what the picture looks like:

Brooke, Beth, Maggie, Cadence, Teddie, and Phoebe

It was a lot of fun working with my brother to design the picture! I'm going to add it to the "Meet My Dolls" page :)

I hope you enjoyed this post!

Maggie and Beth Around the House

I don't have any equipment to make indoor photo shoots easier. But I try to make the best of what I do have, in this case a well lit room with natural light and a white foamboard for a reflector!

Maggie and Beth were in the living room dressed in cute outfits, so I snapped some shots of them hanging out!

Socks! <3

Happy Wednesday!

Happy Valentine's Day!

As seems to be the tradition, I have some pictures of Beth for Valentine's Day! 

Mickey Mouse Ears for Dolls

Before I get into the post, I just want to say that I finally got a follow by email gadget in the sidebar! For some reason it never worked and then one day I decided to try it again and it worked. So now you can do that if you want! Also, there's a poll in a sidebar so that I can gather information about how you guys get notified of my new posts!

Now for the reason you are here..... :)

It is pretty rare that I find a craft tutorial that makes me want to do it right away. But that was the case when I saw American Girl Idea's Mickey Mouse Ears for Disneyland tutorial. I had just enough craft foam and a few blank headbands laying around. I plugged in my glue gun and off I went!

So far I've made three!

First I made Belle inspired ones for Beth! I painted the yellow craft foam with gold sparkle fingernail polish. The rose is also made from craft foam.

Phoebe got some Monsters, Inc. ears!

And, of course, I made Buzz Lightyear inspired ears for Maggie, who loves all things Toy Story. Speaking of, I need to do a new room tour post for her... :)

Which pair is your favorite?

PS I just counted and I follow 138 blogs O_O How many do you follow?
