Madelon's Truly Me and Our Generation Mix and Match Fun!




Today Madelon shares her Truly Me and Our Generation Fun Finds for her doll Tenney!


"Truly Me separates run around $10 to $12 a peice. I found these multicolor Our Generation fabric shoes that fit American Girl beautifully on sale. I think the shoes tie the outfit together. Since the shorts are a sparkly coral, I thought of a performance look for Tenney."

I love the colors in this and how they match!

The Toys We Used To Love...

Today Madelon and I are sharing two of our favorite toys we used to love, mine has a tiny twist. When I was at Toy Traders Last week I found this tiny Pound Puppy that reminded me of the ones I had and loved years ago. This one would be perfect for doll play and I believe you can find these almost anywhere toys are sold. It was very hard to resist this little lovely. I wish I still had mine.
Madelon was recently doing some antiquing and came across this set that she loved growing up...
"We were doing some antiquing yesterday when we came across this West German mini mouse playground, a toy that I loved years and years ago. I recalled it as being much larger! It gave me many happy hours. This store was selling it for $75. My grandmother bought it at FAO Schwartz (which was later bought by Toys r US)."

Thank you all for joining us today for our lookback at some of the toys we used to love. We would love to her from you so please leave us a comment here or email us at karenmowen@gmail.com

Tenney plays in the N'oreaster snow in her Our Generation outfit that came with everything shown including the saucer!

Many places are still stuck in a winter wonderland and while we know that Spring is coming, the white stuff seems to be sticking around in many places. Madelon took advantage of the late snow and took her doll Tenney out to play in the snow.
"This Our Generation set was bought this last year. I like her in the coral stripes! The zipper is also coral. Five pieces were $17.99, including the boots."


Thank you Madelon for sharing this fun find with us today and for making the best of your snow situation!

Madelon on Making a modern OG set retro




I bought the OG Way to Grow set when it was on deep discount for a little over $6. It is a modern set, but I thought it worked as retro. It comes with everything shown plus some vegetables and a bag of organic soil. I can't resist doll sized food!
Look how cute these little tools are!
Karen's personal favorite is the little gnome! 
What gives it the vintage look to Madelon's set? Her new Maryellen's Vacation Playsuit outfit...
It comes with the bandana, romper, skirt, and shoes. It is perfect for 1950's play. The romper velcros at the neck.
Thank you Madelon for sharing these sweet sets with us today. Happy Spring!

Madleon's Mini Stamp Set Fun Finds!

With Easter creeping up on us earlier than normal at the end of the month, we are seeing lots of fun basket stuffers that are fun for kids and that would make great doll play accessories too! Just look at the Peeps stickers and stamp set, this would be hard to resist. Madelon found these recently at her local Walmart and it is easy to see why she would love these and want to share for doll play.


"I like these mini-stamp sets for the dolls for Easter. The Peeps set is my favorite. The stamps and stickers are just right for the dolls hand."

I know my nieces would love the Shopkins Stamp Set.
We are also big fans of Peppa Pig in this house!

Make sure to check out Mini Molly at the AG store near you and bring her home! We have our fingers crossed it wont belong before her 18 inch self and line return!
