in case you're wondering how I might be doing mentally, this week I've watched 10+ hours of American Girl content on YouTube and bought myself (full grown woman with bills to pay) 7 American Girl books online. Last week I was so British I'd barely even heard of that brand. This week I would literally die for Kirsten Larson. The DollTube pipeline is real.

Did any of you participate in Hallmark’s Circle of Smiles promotion back in 2003? I’m surprised that I didn’t know about it back then, but I’m having fun collecting the merch now.

Sixteen charms. Half with the characters and half with their favorite animals. Kaya’s character charm is on the bracelet.

Two bracelets, portrait pins, and a necklace. (I already purchased the necklace a few months ago so the duplicate will be going on Mercari).

Activity booklet, certificate of participation (whited out by previous owner) and autograph book with stationary supplies.

Two cookie tins. The round one was empty when I got it. The rectangular one contains cookie cutters and recipes. (All of the recipes except for Kaya’s can be found in the cookbooks).

This is the primary AG holiday decor in our house. Seemed unlikely that we could afford to collect all the historical holiday outfits, so this is the next best thing.

Getting Dressed with Addy Walker

It's Addy's turn to receive a set of cute and historically accurate undies!

I made these pieces for her based on her original set released in 1994, shortly after Addy's debut the year before. It included a chemise, a crinoline, and a red plaid petticoat. I reproduced all three items. Everything else Addy wears is made by Pleasant Company.

When Addy gets dressed in the morning, she starts with a pair of drawers.

They're long enough to reach just past her knees, and their lacy trim peeks out below the hems of her dresses.

Next is a chemise, which buttons at the neck.

Over that she wears a crinoline, which is a wooden hoop that hangs from Addy's waist and makes her skirts stand out.

For extra fullness and warmth, she puts a plaid flannel petticoat over the crinoline. It has a ruffle at the hem to better hide the crinoline.

Addy always wears knee-length knit stockings, no matter the weather. She laces up her pretty blue boots.

She ties up her braids and secures them with black velvet hairbows. The finishing touch is her cowrie shell necklace, which reminds her of her family's love.

Addy is dressed and ready for the walk to school. She was one of two students from her school chosen to receive higher education at the ICY, and today she'll look just as fashionable as her wealthier classmates.
