*TOUR* Grace Thomas' Room

  

Grace's Le Patisserie is a DIY project. Her round table, bakery cart and apron are AG.

The mixer and 3-tier cake are both ornaments.

Some of the food is DIY, others are erasers.

The shelf on the wall is a thrifty find as are the utensils.

Grace is an AG doll. The hand mitt is a gift from KKollect.

The door is poster board with a craft foam sheet menu board.

I've yet to "install" a sink/fridge combo unit in the left corner.

The entire space is 30" wide by 22" in depth.

*REVIEW* Journey Girl Baking Set

The JG Baking Set $19.99 makes a great addition to Grace's collection.

 

It comes with apron, hat, mitt, cupcake pan, 4 cupcakes, 2 plates, 2 glasses, measuring cup, mixing spoon, spatula, mixer, baking pan, cookie bunch, set of 5 measuring spoons, mixing bowl and recipe card.

 Grace loves the set!

 Pretty in pink.

Delicious!

*REVIEW* Grace's Opening-Night Outfit (Retired)

Grace is so excited to wear this pretty outfit for the bakery’s grand reopening—and her French cousin Sylvie’s visit to America! It includes:

• A shimmery sequined pink dress with a mesh overlay on the skirt and a black velveteen waistband
• Strappy black-and-silver shoes
• A black headband with a fluffy pink mesh fan on the side 

The feminine look of this outfit is gorgeous, delicate and girly.

SEQUINS!!!!

Of course these shoes can be worn with any outfit.

Hate the LARGE tag, but love the fanned tulle detailed headband.

Of course this outfit is retired, but if you can find one on the secondary market or maybe, just maybe AG will have more in upcoming sales - get one! Even if you don't own Grace....it's great for Valentines or birthday parties.

*REVIEW* Grace's Baking Outfit

I have been wanting this outfit all year! So glad to have it now.

 

The colors are very pretty. I love mix n match pieces (as you know) and the shoes are cute.

 

The apron pulls on over the head and has two straps that velcro onto the attached skirt. The skirt has an elastic waist.

CUTENESS!!!

I love this retired outfit! Great quality, fits JG dolls too.

DIY Bakery - Creating a Place for Grace

I've had to make changes in my doll room (again) to fit everyone in. Grace had a space in the old room, but all of my dolls had to move into one 12' x 12' spare room. 

I found these ornaments at Michael's 50% off.

I do no have room for large items and do not own Grace's bakery. I decided to make a simple (small) bakery for her using what I had. This is the 30" wide x 22" deep space I had to work with. Not much, but at least there was a place for my Grace!!!

I began covering the walls, then making bakery doors for the facade on each side.

It's a DIY bakery.  

Grace will need an oven and more display space. 

There is still shelving and a cabinet that needs to go inside, but there was not much room to display the dolliday items. I opted to leave them out for the season. Once spring arrives, the bakery can add more shelving.
