Review of Saige’s Painting Set!!
Hello! I hope you’re all having a great day so far! I think it’s time for another review! A review of Saige’s Painting Set!! Here we go!
Here’s a picture of all the wonderful items included in this set.
The easel is so amazing! It’s plastic that looks like wood and is great quality. The little gap pictured is to attach the cup which holds the paint brushes. And that little tab looking-thing is another gap to put the paintings in!
The easel easel-y (hehe- get it?) latches open and closed.
Here are the 5 tubes of paint! I love how they’re all squeezed differently! Hmm.. Saige must really like the yellow!
The set comes with 4 paint brushes in different sizes. I love the brushes because they’re just like REAL mini brushes! They’re so soft!!
Here’s the little cup that holds the brushes. See the little ball? That’s how it hooks on to the easel!
The painting palette is so cute! The little hole is where Saige’s thumb goes to hold it, but I have her hold it in that gap cause it looks more realistic. If she holds it in the hole (thinking realistically) all the paint would be spilling on the floor! If it’s in the gap- not so much 😉 Hmm.. The yellow paint tube is squeezed more- yet I see more black on there, don’t you?
The set comes with a little drawing pad. It has pages of real paper so you COULD draw on it- but don’t. If you did then Saige wouldn’t be able to “draw” anything else 😉
The art portfolio is so cute! The black elastic just slips over the front so you can get the drawings out.
All the beautiful drawings inside! They’re all so beautiful!
This has to be my favorite one! Look at that detail! I wonder if these are drawings of what the REAL Saige drew?
All 5 paintings on real canvas!! The quality and the detail just blows me away! AG did a great job with these!
These are my 2 favorite paintings! SO PRETTY!
And at a corner of each painting is Saige’s initials and the year. So cool!
That’s the end of our review! Everything in this is just AMAZING! Yes, it may be expensive for a little set like this BUT- you’re paying for the quality! I say that about alot of their products and it’s so true! All the drawings and paintings are so beautiful! My Saige is so happy to have this set!
If you’ve been struggling on whether or not to buy this, I hope I helped you decide!
Have a great rest of your day!

Good Friday Photostory
Happy Good Friday Everyone! I’m so excited for Easter and it’s just in 2 days! Yay!
My dolls are having fun preparing for Easter in a bunch of different ways. Take a look!
Saige and Caroline are going through the outfits trying to figure out who’s gonna wear what on Sunday. Felicity is helping them decide.
Kanani and Marie-Grace getting the plates out for all the desserts and fun foods we’re going to have!
Josefina ready to pop the last batch of cupcakes in the oven.
Rebecca frosting the cupcakes! Don’t they look SO good?
Kirsten making Rice Krispy Treats! I love those!
“Josefina! You don’t have an apron on! You’re gonna ruin Rebecca’s dress!” Addy said, in her “older” tone.
“Oh, Addy! I’m fine! I’m putting the last batch in right now and then I’m done! I don’t need to put an apron on just for that!” Josefina replied, a little annoyed.
“Well, still. Next time put it on, ok?”
“Aye, yi, yi! Alright! Josefina replied once again- annoyed.
“I’m so excited for the egg hunt! I wonder what kind of candy we’ll get?” Kirsten wondered trying to change the subject.
“I don’t know, but I hope we get lots and lots! I hope it’s a beautiful day on Sunday!” Josefina said, getting very excited herself.
“Girls! Come on, gather round! I have something to tell you.” I said.
So they all gathered round and I made my announcement.
“Girls, I know you’ve been looking forward to Easter and the egg hunt, but it’s supposed to rain. So I’m afraid we’ll have to cancel the egg hunt.” I said feeling so sorry for my girls.
” Oh no! What will we do?”
“Will we still get candy?”
“I’ve been looking forward to it for so long!”
“My first Easter here and I can’t have an Egg hunt.” They all said and questioned. Then Rebecca spoke,
“I have an idea! Since we can’t have an egg hunt outside doesn’t mean we can’t have an egg hunt inside! There’s enough room so, why not?” She said trying to cheer up her sisters.
“Rebecca, that’s a wonderful idea!”
“We get to have an egg hunt after all!”
“You’re the best, Rebecca!”
Many hugs were passed to her that day! They were all so happy to get to have their egg hunt after all!
“It IS a wonderful idea, Rebecca! So now that that’s all settled- can we eat some cookies?” Josefina said in her silly mood. And everyone laughed and enjoyed the rest of the day!
Are your dolls doing any preparing for Easter today? Have you ever had an indoor egg hunt?
Have a great day everyone!!

Kanani Bakes Cookies!
I took these pictures awhile back to send in to AGfan- but I never did so I decided to share them with you!
It was cold day and it was perfect weather to bake some cookies!
Chocolate chip cookies that is!
These are the type of cookies she’s making!
“They’re ready to go in, mommy!” Kanani said, since I have to put them in 😉
Kanani waiting for the timer to *BEEP*! “Patience sweetie!” I said.
“They’re done, they’re done, they’re done!!!” Kanani said very excited!
“Go on, take a bite!” I told her.
“Delicious!!” Kanani said with her mouth full. “I’d send you all some if I could!” She offered generously.
Well, Kanani had a LOT of fun showing you all what a great baker she is!
Kirsten and Josefina are normally the bakers but everyone else was still asleep. Kanani wanted to surprise them all!
What’s your favorite cookie? Do you have any little bakers in your doll family?

My Review of Caroline Abbot
I’ve noticed that since Saige was released there hasn’t been alot of talk about our newest Historical Character-Caroline. I want to give her some attention and since I have her I decided to do a review about her! Ready? Let’s get started!
Something I really like about Caroline is her eyes! They’re a very light blue. A bit aqua-marine actually! They’re very pretty! I also love her face mold! There seem to be a few dolls with the same one. I know Felicity has it for sure! Anyways, she just has the sweetest face! Although- All of them do 😀 LOL!
Now what I LOVE is her hair! Look at that! It’s so long and curly! And it’s also very light. It can be a pain though because to keep her hair looking nice you have to pick it a lot! Yes, use the AG Sparkly Hair Pick! Do NOT brush!!! I also highly recommend spritzing it with water. It gets it smooth 😉
Now I’ll review her Meet Outfit and Accessories!
Here’s her dress. I absolutely love her dress! It’s a light pink with some medium pink trimmings. It’s long and I love the style! If AG ever made her dress for girls- I’d get it! It’s so pretty!
The waistband looks like a tied ribbon but it’s actually just part of the dress! It’s all embroidered so nice and neat. This is part of what makes the dress pretty!
The cute little sleeve with a ruffle at the edge 🙂
Look at that tiny shoe!!! I love AG’s shoes! They all look so realistic. And the socks that she comes wearing are probably my favorite out of all the others that I have! They’re nice and thick- just like real ones! The shoes are easy to slip on, too!
On to the Accessories!
Ok, this is one of my favorites in her entire collection!! This bonnet is SO pretty and very Easter-ish 😉 The flower is so big and pretty! I love the colors and everything about it! I was so excited when I first saw this bonnet cause I have always wanted one like this for myself! And now- my dolls could have one!
Here’s her pouch, and once again- all embroidered! The colors are so pretty! And the style is really cute! In my opinion though- AG could’ve made the ties a bit shorter.
Emboridered on the top of the bag says, “Caroline Abbot 1812” So cute!
Lastly is her spinning top! It really works and it actually is good for people! LOL!
Her colors are so pretty- she is so pale and I love that about her! It’s unique from any Historical Doll AG has done! I recommend Miss Caroline Abbot 100%! But I also recommend her for older girls- at the ages 8 and up. I don’t believe that girls younger than that should get her. Caring for her hair can be a challenge and it takes practice. If the child is younger than the age I suggested and really IS capable of caring for her then that would be fine 🙂
Hope you enjoyed the review!!!

Happy Palm Sunday!
Happy Palm Sunday everyone! I’m really excited for Easter, aren’t you?
My dolls and I are gonna have a fun week decorating and preparing for this fun time! My dolls (they are my “kids” when I play) are gonna have an Easter Egg Hunt so there will be a post on Easter!
Although my dolls (and I :)) love the candy, Easter baskets, egg hunts, etc. We must do our best to remember the TRUE meaning of Easter. It’s not about all that stuff- It’s about Jesus’ resurrection. And because He lives, we can have eternal life in Heaven!
“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him will not perish, but have everlasting life.”
John 3:16
Why are YOU looking forward to Easter? What do you do on this fun day?
