Poisson d'Avril Preps

Last year Grace shared a fun tradition with the other gals {here} -- Poison d'Avril.

It seems to be that time of year again!

Happy Celebrating!

An American Girl at Play -- Top 3 Projects to Date

The all time favorite post is our bathroom.

I think the reversible curtain and the paperclip-holder sink made this a reader favorite.

This is the same room with a few additions.

{The shower curtain has just been reversed to the other side in this photo.}

In August 2013, just 2 months after we started blogging our doll play, we made the most fun classroom!

This little file nook is still a favorite.

We used a trifold science board, which just goes to show,
 you don't have to have a big dollhouse to make a super fun/functional space.

A few close-up pictures.

We've made all kinds of fun school-related items for doll play.

This sewing cabinet project was one of our first ideas back in 2013.

We've used it in a few different ways, but the sewing cabinet will always be my personal favorite.

We used the same style of cabinet in our Craft Cottage -- 

Such a fun little room where we played like our dolls were craft queens, 

as they each channeled their inner Martha {Stewart}.

It makes a pretty fabulous video cabinet too.

This blog is called An American Girl at Play for a reason --

mainly because we like to post about our American Girl dolls,

but the American girls that play in our house also love Blythe & Barbies.

You can follow our five little Blythe dolls

Let us know what you think!

Fashion Friday -- 50s Style

We found this adorable little 50s set on Etsy and added some 

AG saddleback shoes to make this outfit complete.

It is the perfect color for Mary Ellen to wear to our Seaside Diner.

Mary Ellen enjoying her new outfit --

and the warmer weather!

Cheers to Fashion!

Cheers to Fridays!

Cheers to the 50s!
