a trip to american girl place!

There is nothing like spending a day in the city around the holidays!
and what was the first stop on our list? AMERICAN GIRL PLACE, of course!

happy birthday nina!

well... we did it!


after weeks of construction, and planning, and decorating... the tea room was finally ready! the chandeliers sparkled! the fancy tables were set! the birthday girl arrived wearing a gorgeous leopard coat (her doll dressed to match!) and the biggest smile!
we were absolutely delighted to have her... and she and her friends partied like princesses!

creating the most magical party place ever.

what's the recipie for creating a fabulous party room?

a little hard work, a LOT of love... and ton of pink paint!


here are some photos of the work-in-progress:
