New My Life As Doll Accessory Sets At Walmart! Backdrops on Clearance!

Doll Friends!

It's that time of year again... When My Life As Doll has their 'out with the old, in with the new' season. I went to Walmart over the weekend and this is what I saw. Which is hysterical because I went to the My Life As Doll section thinking I'd buy the dolls a new outfit... And not a single outfit was there to be had. Ha! There was only that one lone t-shirt hanging forlornly on the top left hook... It must've misplaced its shorts or whatever the other part of the outfit was. 

So despite being a bit annoyed there were no outfits, I was glad to get to see the newest accessory sets they are bringing out this year. This is a Pet Rescue Set. It's pretty cute and I will probably end up buying it just to get the awesome medical bits in the bag of vet tools. I love those scissors! Otherwise it's mostly just duplicates of things I already have in the Doll House from other pet sets I've gotten in the past. 

This game set is pretty cute... The only reason I would want to buy it is to get those little 'card holders' because I have lots of board games in the Doll House already. 

This set is one that I think I remember them releasing in the past... Maybe arranged in a different way but I think I have. I have laptops and pens and water bottles... But I don't have a fidget spinner.... Hmmm....

In order to make room for the new they have to get rid of the old and so some of last years My Life As Doll stuff were on clearance. I am intrigued by the doll stand but not $9 intrigued... I just don't know how it would look in doll photos to have that on a doll? Have any of you bought it? I had a moment of pause with JoJo's Candy Shoppe... It really is pretty cute but I passed on it. 

 I think the Egg Chair is cute too but it's so lightweight I have never thought it would likely work very well with a doll in it. Obviously I've never tried it because I don't have one but... When you pick up the box you nearly throw it over your shoulder for expecting it to have more weight than it does. It's really lightweight. 

They had some mini-dolls on sale for $5.00 but MLA mini-dolls aren't my favorite... They make them a tiny bit bigger than the Lori Dolls by Battat or the AG Minis. Which almost makes them a tiny bit too big to be right scale to be '18 inch type' dolls for the dolls in the Doll House. Don't get me wrong, I have a few of them but they are 'enough'.  

What I couldn't pass up were the backdrops on clearance for $3.00 each. I had to talk myself out of buying more than one more of each of them cos I love me some backdrops! And, yes, that's still Thanksgiving set up in the background. LOL I set Christmas up in a different part of the Doll House and still never have gotten the Thanksgiving set pulled down. Nothing like having to dust dinner before I put it away! Hahaha! That's the nature of the holidays though, barely getting one packed up before the next one shows up. What's a girl to do? 

Gotta run!
Have a great week!

PS Here is a box I saw at a thrift store that I carried around for at least 20mins before talking myself out of buying it because of space issues! It would've made a great 'pirates treasure' prop for doll photos but... Only so much space... Looking at it now I am like "Why did I talk myself out of it!?!?" But... Can't buy all the things... Eh?

My Life As Doll Find At Local Thrift Store & Her Visit to Peach Park!

Greetings And Salutations Doll Friends!

How can it be July 5th already! Hope you had a nice holiday weekend! I had to come show you this lovely My life As Doll Doll I found recently at the thrift store. She needed a bit of cleaning up and so I de-tangled her hair, cleaned her up, put her in some fresh clothes and...

Then I took her to Peach Park for some photos!

Here she is in a 'before' photo. As you can see, I got her for a mere $2.99! She was honestly in pretty good shape... Her original braid had never even been removed from the front of her hair but she did need a lot of tangles removed and a good clean up!

She turned out so nice! Isn't she pretty?!

I think I got some pretty good photos and when I was all done I treated myself to some of Peach Park's famous peach cobbler with peach ice cream on top! 

YummO!

She posed by all of the iconic scenes to be seen at Peach Park! 

It is a really beautiful place! 

Several little walking trails between the place where you can buy all the amazing peach and other fruit produce items (and even Fried Green Tomatoes!) and the other parts of the park. 

Here she is by the red caboose! You can see the little red barn that kids can play in in the background too. 

My favorite of all the 'things to see' at the Peach Park has to be this lighthouse fountain. It's rather hot at Peach Park this time of year and just being next to the fountain feels cooler. It's really pretty too, obviously. 

There are several animal statues they have there for photo ops and so of course I had to take her photo by them! 

Here she is by the neat little play ground. 

So it was fun going there to take photos! I'm sure I'll visit there again and I'm sure I'll take a doll with me again too! Neat place!

At the same thrift store I found a few other doll items but since I am just 'traveling' in Alabama right now, I won't allow myself to buy 'bigger' doll items. Which is kind of hard to do! 

Oh, I really wanted to buy this vending machine from My Life As... I've wanted to get one 'new' but haven't done so yet and so it was super hard to make myself put it back. 

It didn't have any of the soda's or water bottles it comes with new but $2.99 was a steal!!

I also found this Our Generation Washer and, again, had it in my cart even... But I eventually put it back. Can only let myself buy dolls I can pack to take home, eh?

I did buy this cute Madame Alexander Doll though! I've since gotten her cleaned up and dressed but I haven't had a chance to take 'after' photos of her yet! And see the little bag of clothes next to her? It was a great deal! There were several actual American Girl Doll clothing items in it! So I'll have to show you what I got in it as well! 

The Ice Cream Vendor Bike by My Life As Doll was another one I was tempted by but ultimately put back. One of pedals was missing and, well, it's a huge item... So I left it in the store! Same with the little wooden rocking horse. 

Naturally since I can't buy big items in my travels, I didn't buy this great horse either. Oh so hard to be good! 

Well, it's late so I better hit the hay before I fall asleep on my laptop! 

Have a fantastic week Doll Friends!
