LOOK Caroline's Room Tour

I have wanted Caroline's canopy bed for awhile, but it was too expensive.  I saw it on Facebook Marketplace $75.  

 Caroline can sleep sweetly in her elegant wooden bed. It features:

Four turned posts and a lacy white canopy, popular styles in her day

• A butter-yellow, wool-blend bedspread is embroidered with a delicate floral pattern 
• A tufted mattress and soft pillow rest on ropes instead of springs. If the ropes loosened, Caroline would have pulled them to “sleep tight”

It came with Cecile's desk, vanity with the pitcher and bowl set and Rebecca's Settee. 

When I went to pick it up, the lady said she decided to throw in Carolina's skiff at no cost!  Wow, what a deal!

Papa built this beautiful wooden skiff at the family’s shipyard—Caroline loves to go sailing with him on Lake Ontario. Papa even named the boat “Miss Caroline” after her—and painted it right on the side!

True to her era, it features:

Two seats to fit a pair of dolls, plus a mast with a canvas sail.

American Girl Julie’s Pinball Machine Review

Pinball arcades were incredibly popular in the ’70s, and Julie loves to try to beat the high score! The Flip Side pinball machine works just like a real one, with flashing lights, a digital scorekeeper, a plunger to launch the metal ball, buttons to control the flipper arms on either side, bumpers, and realistic machine sounds. It’s made of real metal and wood.

It retails for $150.

*REVIEW* Molly's PC School Desk

 

My mother found Molly's retired desk for me.  

 

 

It is a beautiful wooden desk with a top that lifts up to store books and papers. The desk has a groove to hold pencils. The base is heavy metal with a swivel chair. These are the materials I wish American Girl would continue to use!

I highly recommend this.

*REVIEW* Jakks Pacific 18" Disney Princess & Me Royal Wardrobe

Royal Wardrobe
Hard plastic, White and Pink with Silver Adornments
Has bar inside for hangers. 
Measures:  18" Tall, 6" Deep and 10" Wide

This is a used item from eBay, the pink crown on top is missing.

Super clean and in great used condition.

 This is a great furniture/storage piece. I recommend it, this is versatile enough to be used for hanging 16" and 18" doll clothes. It's super light weight and since it is white, it will blend in well with many doll bedrooms.
