Doll-Sized Finds!

While my mom was in the shop of a local historical site, she found these cute little pieces of pottery!


I think I will use the bowl for fruit

And this as a pencil holder.  I don't know what I will do with the blue one yet.

Cookies

Kit and Ruthie did some baking today.  Didn't they do a great job of decorating the cookies?

Cake

My little brother made this cake for my dolls today.  Isn't it sweet?  Sometimes his Build-a-Bears come over to play with the dolls.

Pencils!

I found a craft on Doll Diaries (here is the link http://dolldiaries.com/doll-craft-make-your-own-doll-school-supplies/) about how to make pencils for American Girl Dolls.  I tried it, and I thought I would show you how it turned out!
Here is the finished pencil.  Doesn't it look real?

I made a whole set of colored pencils, too.  For a pencil holder, I used a tiny Altoids box.

Here is Kit holding her new pencil.  Now she can really be a reporter.
