WellieWishers Willa Doll Review
Hi everyone!!
I guess the title gives it away, but YES! I got Willa!!! I’ve had her for a few weeks now and just yesterday got around to taking pictures of her (sorry for my absence by the way. I’ve been having trouble with finding time to take pictures…)
Isn’t she too cute! *heart eyes*
Here is a closeup of Willa’s face. She has ADORABLE freckles sprinkled across her nose and stunning hazel eyes! She has orange feathered eyebrows and a sweet little smile with 2 teeth showing.
Willa comes wearing this red and pink hedgehog Β shirt that velcros in the back. The face is printed on and two little ears stick up at the corners.
I absolutely love her skirt!! THE HEDGEHOGS ARE SO CHUBBY!! There’s a little knot at the side of her skirt and it is trimmed in red.
Her little bunny ears headband is the same print as the skirt with pink trim to match the shirt. The headband is fabric until it reaches the underneath part where it’s just elastic (and has a humongous tag). It’s easy to slip on and off the doll’s head.
Her Wellies are adorable little ladybugs. They’re a little difficult to get on and off.
Of course I had to show a closeup of its cute little face π
Willa’s hair is strawberryΒ blonde and is the exact same color as Maryellen’s hair.
She has several highlights in her hair.
Okay, so I know this is awkward, but I felt it needed to be shown. When you take off her underwear there’s a little Wellie Wishers logo engraved on her. Also, Willa is all vinyl and has a cute little belly button π Β There is also “American Girl made in China” and some numbers engraved on the back.
The Wellie Wishers are $60 and I think perhaps slightly overpriced. Normally I say AG’s things are worth the money and while I absolutely ADORE Willa, I don’t think she should be a $60 doll π I think $45 might be a better price for them.
AG says they are for ages 5+ and I feel like that’s accurate π
You knew it was coming, didn’t you? XD Time for a PHOTOSHOOT! π
I forgot to mention that her head is always in a tilted up position. I think it’s adorable and will probably work well for when she looks up to the AG dolls π
I went into the sunlight and used the gold side of my reflector for a different lighting. What do you think?
I don’t know why, but the reflector didn’t shine a golden light in this photo… My mom really liked this pic, so I decided to post it anyway π
Well, there you are! Willa is simply adorable and quite photogenic! I’d like to take her to a park sometime and get more pictures of her π And yes, the Wellie Wishers are perfect little sisters for AG dolls π
What do you think of the Wellie Wishers? Are any of them on your WISHlist? (Haha, get it? XD)Β
Have a great day everyone! And I hope to start posting more soon! π

Aww, she’s so cute! Your photos are stunning!
~Grace <3
Awe, thank you, Grace! π
~Jaclynn~
Aw, Willa is SO cute! You did such a lovely review on her. And I love your photos! Your photography is amazing. π
β’Madiβ’
I know!! π
Awe, thanks so much, Madi! You’re so sweet π
~Jaclynn~
You’re welcome! π π Jaclynn, if you don’t mind, I have a question about Etsy shops. I know you run a successful Etsy shop, so I was wondering if I could ask you a question. π
Was it hard to get it started? Do you get a lot of orders? Do you have to pay Etsy some money from every order?
Oops, that was more than one question… LOL! π Thanks so much for reading! π
β’Madiβ’
Oooh Q&A time! XD
1. If you mean setting up your Etsy shop, I don’t really remember… My mom helped me with that part since I was really young when I opened it, but I’ve watched my mom do it before and I don’t think it’s too hard. π
2. I wouldn’t say a lot, but they are fairly frequent. It just depends on what you sell, really! My costumes are more of a gifty item than just buying a $35 doll outfit cause it’s cute (if you know what I mean π Though that has happened a few times before). If you’re selling reasonably priced doll food or jewelry or maybe sewing some doll clothes, you’ll probably have a better shot at getting more orders π
3. Yes, there are Etsy fees and you have pay – I think it’s 20 cents each time you list or relist an item when it sells out. I have a monthly Etsy bill that I have to pay. I think I actually have one due right now… Ugh. XD
I hope that was helpful for you! If something didn’t make sense or you have anymore questions, just let me know! π
~Jaclynn~
LOL! XD
Thank you SO much! That helped a lot. If I have more questions I’ll ask you. ;D
Thanks again! π
β’Madiβ’
You’re welcome! I’m happy to help! π

Willa is my favorite Wellie Wisher! (Emerson close behind.) I don’t think I’ll get her, because Saige is in our doll family and looks a bit like her. She’s ADORBS though! π
