Cecile & Marie-Grace's Collection Part 1

Heyy Girls!
Today I thought I'd show you Cecile & Marie-Grace's collection. I have both dolls and happen to love their items :)
My first thoughts on the collection was that it was super detailed. So, here we go!

Cecile & Marie-Grace Dolls and Accessories


They are very pretty and unique from other dolls available from American Girl. Marie-Grace's hair comes in braids draped across the back of her head, which you don't see in this photo. Cecile's curls are gorgeous! It's a little tricky to care for, but once you get the hang of it it's pretty easy!
(would you like to know how to care for Cecile's hair?) The accessories are very cute! I love their necklaces and hats. Marie-Grace's fan is fancy and Cecile's gloves are very elegant!

Cecile & Marie-Grace's Boxed Set with Game
I actually have this! It's one of the things I currently own from their collection. Their books are soo amazing! Some parts are sad, some happy. The game opens up from the back and it comes with pieces and a fold-able dice.


The  six-books series titles are Meet Marie-Grace, Meet Cecile, Marie-Grace and the Orphans, Troubles for Cecile, Marie-Grace Makes a Difference, and Cecile's Gift. All of these books come in the Boxed Set which I showed above, but you can also buy them separately. I've read them all and they were really good, as mentioned before. I'd highly recommend reading them sometime.


The Hidden Gold: A Marie-Grace Mystery

I haven't read this book yet but would love to soon. I've seen it at Barnes & Noble before and just haven't gotten it because I wanted something else. Hopefully, I will be able to read it soon!


The Cameo Necklace: A Cecile Mystery

This is another book I have not read yet. When I get the other mystery for Marie-Grace I will probably get this book too.


Cecile & Marie-Grace Just for Fun

This is the Just for Fun book that they have for all of the historical characters except Addy and Kaya. I have this, but haven't used it yet. It has puzzles, sudoku (number puzzles), Mask Making, and much more! I looks super fun and I will probably make a video and post a review on it, when I start using it.


Marie-Grace Treasure Tote

A tiny tote full of fun things to do! I have Julie's Treasure Tote, which again I haven't opened yet, but will soon. They have a mini shorter version of the dolls Meet book (Meet Marie-Grace) and a puzzle, mini paper doll scenes, and some other fun activities that involve Marie-Grace.


Cecile Treasure Tote

Similar to Marie-Grace's, except this one has a mini short version of Meet Cecile and has some different activities in it. These totes are perfect for car trips, rainy days, or fun with your doll! They have a little handle to carry it and a pocket to keep the activity sheets in.


Cecile & Marie-Grace Play Scenes & Paper Dolls

This fun paper dolls book comes with two "pull-out" scenes that are attached to the book. You spread out the book to reveal the 2 fun scenes. I have this but haven't used it yet. I've been saving the opening of it for a video like I have for a few other books. It comes with a whole pad of card-stock and paper sheets with the dolls, Argos and Cochon (a dog and parrot who are Cecile and Marie-Graces different pets), outfits, accessories, and pretend card-stock furniture. There's tons to do with this fun set :)  Oh, it also comes with reusable sticky pieces to attach the clothing to your paper dolls. The book has pockets to store the various pieces in after they are punched, so you can play with them over and over again. One more thing, there are cards that help you act out scenes from the book.


This is Part 1, there will be more parts because they have more to their collection. I hope you enjoyed this post and comment letting me know what you like, if you have them or anything from their collection, questions, or anything else!


I do not own any these pictures. All rights go to American Girl.


Bye and have an AWESOME day!!  :)

Dolls I Like

I decided to make this post about dolls I like.
They are in no specific order of what I like most or anything,  they're just as I'm looking through the catalogue and website and seeing what I like. Also, I like so many dolls I just put some of them here :)


My American Girl
MAG A3-W0687
 
 She's pretty and I like her side bangs!

MAG A3-W0589
She is uber pretty although she look like Julie with shorter hair and I already have Julie...

MAG #49
Of course, Zoe (my doll). She has gorgeous hair and dark hair with blue eyes is a striking combination.

MAG A3-G1938
This doll is very pretty! Her hair would be so great for a lot of different styles, too. She's the one without layered hair and she has lighter eyes than the other blond hair/blue eyes doll.

MAG A3-G1978
 
This doll is fascinatingly beautiful. She's a doll that not many people have and I think she might be my next doll. I'm not sure yet but she's definitely on my wishlist!

I could go on and on with more MAG dolls but I'll stop here :)

Historicals:

Josefina Montoya
She is soo pretty! Josefina has really long hair which is really nice and I love her face mold!

Julie Albright
I have Julie and love her hair! She's lovely, I love her stories, and that's why I chose her :)

Cecile Rey & Marie-Grace Gardner
Cecile and Marie-Grace are definitely some of the most unique dolls out there! I have them and Cecile's curls are just AMAZING! 

Rebecca Rubin
Rebecca would have been the doll I got if I hadn't gotten Cecile (I got Marie-Grace later). She's very pretty and I like the outfit she come in.

Girl of the Year
My favorite Girl of the Year would be either Jess (2006) or Kanani (2011).
Here they are...
Jess ~ Girl of the Year 2006
She's got a great outfit and she's adventurous which I like :) She's pretty too.

Kanani ~ Girl of the Year 2011
I love her hair and skin tone and eye color and outfit and well...everything about her! I don't have her although I wish I had gotten her but I'm happy with the doll  I have. :)

So...that was super long but I hope you enjoyed!
Please comment letting me know what your favorite dolls are!


Also, I own none of these photos. All rights go to American Girl.


Have an AWESOME day!! Bye!
