Isn't this cupcake realistic?

And these cookies.... Too cute!!

Isn't it the perfect size? 

Love it!!

They are just way too realistic and cute!!  Amazing!!

Let's talk about the cupcake first. :)  This cupcake is THE cutest!!  The frosting is amazingly realistic (seriously, it looks good enough to eat!), and the sprinkles MUST be real.  It is the perfect size for your doll, and the mint green liner contrasts perfectly with the vanilla cupcake and chocolate frosting!  I am IN LOVE with this cupcake, and so are my dolls! :P  Such a tasty treat!

These cookies are super adorable!  They could not possibly look any more realistic.  I mean, they totally look edible!!! :P  The pink frosting is, once again, perfectly realistic.  It seriously looks like somebody spread it on there with a knife!  This is such a special summer treat, and both my dolls and I LOVE them!!!

Hi!

Today I have the opportunity to review some gorgeous nail polish from Jenna of LynBDesigns!  She sent me the gorgeous color Oobleck from the Many Colors of Suess Collection.

Isn't the color GORGEOUS?!?!?!

I absolutely love it!!!

And the name is just too cute!! 

 LOVE

This nail polish is fantastic.  The consistency is perfect; not runny and not sticky.  It paints on extremely easily, and doesn't make a mess like some polishes can.  After it is removed, it doesn't stay in the cracks of your nails (so nice!!!).  I hate it when you have the color of your last polish stuck on your nails for a long time.  Such a pain.  This one does not do that, and it comes off very nicely.  I really have nothing bad to say about this polish.  It is ideal in all aspects!!!  The consistency is perfect, the color is great, I love the glitter in it that makes it sparkly, it comes off nicely.... I mean, what more could you ask for?!?!?!

Pros:

Perfect consistency.

Paints on nicely.

Gorgeous color.

Sparkly glitter inside.

Comes off easily.

Doesn't stay in the cracks of your nails.

Cons:

None!!!

This nail polish is fantastic, and if you are looking for good quality, creative polish, LynBDesigns is the place to go!!!  Jenna has all sorts of different collections with fabulous colors!!!

Make sure to place your order today, because Jenna has a 35% off code ending today.  Hurry!  Here's the code: SHERLOCK

Also, make sure to check out Jenna's blog here!

Thank you so much, Jenna!!!

of an American Girl Doll outfit provided

by One Girl's Dream.  All opinions are 

my own.

Hi!

The lovely Mary Ann from One Girl's Dream has generously sponsored me with an adorable American Girl outfit for me to review!!!  Audrey is a lovely model for it. :)

Isn't it lovely?

 Audrey loves it!

 And she looks so adorable in it!

 Cute!

 Peek-a-boo!

I LOVE IT!!!

Isn't this outfit gorgeous?!?!?!  I think Audrey looks fantastic in it!

This outfit is fantastic quality, AND it comes with shoes and a necklace!!!  Pretty cool, right?  The denim vest comes off (forgot to take a picture of that... oops), which makes it a very versatile outfit; you can have a pretty dress, a vest with it, or the vest with a different outfit!

The dress has a very lovely floral print, and the vest is lined with the same fabric as the dress.  The dress has a tank top-style neckline, and looks adorable on the doll.  This outfit is definitely a new summer staple for my girls!  The vest is a bit hard to get on and off because you have to re-string the twine in the front every time.

The shoes are WAY too cute, and are so realistic!  They even have a buckle on the sides!!!  The necklace is a gorgeous pearl choker, and goes super well with this outfit!!

Pros:

Great quality.

Versatile outfit.

Comes with shoes and necklace.

Beautiful fabric.

Adorable shoes.

Pretty necklace.

Easy on/off of dress.

Great velcro closure.

Cons:

Difficult on/off of vest.

Even with the difficult on/off of the vest, I would still give this a 5 out of 5 stars!!!  It is just way too cute, and super versatile!!!  I LOVE it!  One Girl's Dream is an amazing shop, and if you're looking for a cute outfit for your doll, then One Girl's Dream is the place to go!  There are so many cute outfits that both you and your doll will love so much, you'll be jealous that you can't get it in your size!!!

Thanks so much, Mary Ann!  My dolls and I are in love with this outfit, and we love your shop One Girl's Dream!

Thanks for reading!

Hi!

Today I will be reviewing the wonderful soap that Francesca from Passion Moon Potions sent me!  The soap is a Lemon Buttercream scent (the same that I am giving away in my big 75 follower goal/blogoversary giveaway), and it is WONDERFUL!!!!

Pros:

This soap is all natural, and all organic, so it is very good for your skin.

It smells AMAZING!!!

It feels very moisturizing, and it doesn't leave dry skin after drying off.

It doesn't leave behind any yucky residue.

It suds up very nicely, and feels really nice.

Cons:

None!

Thank you so much for sending me this soap to review, Francesca!  Make sure to go check out Francesca's shop, Passion Moon Potions, for all of her wonderful items, and don't forget to enter my giveaway here!

Hi!

Today we will be featuring Francesca from Passion Moon Potions for my 75 follower goal/blogoversary givewaway!  Francesca is giving away a wonderful lemon buttercream soap bar!  First, a little bit about Francesca:

Passion Moon Potions started 10 years ago.  Mostly as a hobby, and then grew into a small one person business.  Making most items for myself and family members.  Expanding and selling at small shops and farmers markets. 
I'm so grateful for my sisters who told me about etsy!!  Where now I have expanded even more and absolutely love and enjoy my work!

I have a wide assortment of different products including, Lip balms, body creams, face creams, scrubs and butters, salves and massage oils.
All made with natural fresh and mostly organic ingredients.  And vegan friendly.  I make everything myself, from scratch.  I package and create the labels. 
I love creating new products that benefit the body.  Without using harsh chemicals, and animal by-products.
I use natural preservatives, because so many people have such sensitive skin.  You can keep any products in the refrigerator to lengthen the shelf life.  Or use within 6-8 months after purchase. Some products may naturally separate, just stir and it's fine. : )
All my products are tested on Me first.  Then my family, before listing. 
Mahalo for visiting!

Thanks, Francesca!  Francesca has some lovely items in her shop, and the soap that she is giving away smells WONDERFUL!!!  She has sent me a bar too, and a review on that is coming soon!  See more of her fantastic items below:

AGcessories

Hi!

Today we will be featuring Talia from AGcessories for my 75 follower goal/blogoversary giveaway!  Talia is giving away adorable American Girl Doll Juice Boxes!  First, a little bit about Talia:

Dolls have always been a big part of my life.  As a child, I collected barbies and that continued into my teens. That was before I knew of American Girl.  I have also been a crafter since my teen years.  Now that I have a daughter who loves American Girl, I have found a way to combine dolls and crafting.  I loved making accessories for her dolls so much that I wanted to open a shop to make them for other girls (and grown ups ;)) to enjoy. Each doll item I make is crafted with lots of love and care, and I try to make sure every item is unique and fun.  My daughter's AG dolls gives me an excuse to play them with her. She is almost 9, and I have a 4 year old boy who occassionally takes one of his sisters' doll food items and feeds it to his action figure. When I am not spending time with my kids or making doll things, I enjoy reading, organizing, and I love google. I google everything! Thank you so much for taking time to read a little about me and my shop!

Thanks, Talia!  Talia's shop is fantastic, and she is super great to work with!  Her items are SO adorable!!!  See more of her items below:

Aren't all of these items super cute???  They're all perfectly sized, and very detailed and realistic!  Make sure to check out all of her items in her shop, AGcessories
