Target Part 2

Hey Gang!

OK, so you might know that I am not a big fan of the Monster High Dolls. I have noticed that they are taking up more shelf space at the toy stores and toy departments.  They started as just four of five dolls and now they are a whole area of the toy section.  A lot of people like them so I am going to show you what I saw while at Target!

They had a box set that included these dolls!  It include five dolls.  I'm  showing close-up of their faces.

Draculaura

Clawdeen Wolf

Cleo de Nile

Frankie Stein

Ghoulia Yelp

They had individual dolls like these!

 I think this one is very colorful!

 This one is a little scary.

 Interesting!

 The fur is a nice touch too!

 I think these two must make sounds.

This is the Coffee House!

I saw the sofa from this set on Marta's blog and it worked in quite well!

 Clothing!  There were new clothing packs there too!  So here are some photos of them.

 More Dolls!

 The School!  I had seen it on line but not in person.  I was happy to see it and figure out what could be used around my house!

OK,

Thanks For Looking!

Hight School Musical House/School!

I know I told you with the purchase of my last large house that I didn't need another but I got one any way!  I just couldn't leave it at the thrift store. 

 Not for this price!

 It has some nice features even if I take it apart to use.  I have see this entry in many dioramas.  I have even seen it repainted. 

 I would like to use it as a office building but it might even work well as a school.  Who know what I can do with this.  I will have to remove the stickers!  You guys who have done this, please give suggestions.  I don't want this project to sit for long.

This is a very large sticker.... it looks like it will be some work!

I guess this side was the gym?  The brown and beige floors make not painting them easy and the gold accents are nice too. It has a formal feel.

So the read curtains will go...they might make a cute outfit for one of my dolls.  I have been inspired about recycling items after some things I have seen on flickr!

From what I have seen the doors might be a challenge.  I think that they will be brown! That color might take better than other colors.

I am not sure what this is or if it even belongs to this set.  I will play around with it. 

These I believe belong to a table to the set but the top was not at the thrift store with the house.  Since they are not gold, I will use them somewhere else.

Gold detail I like and red detail that must go!  I have a sheet behind the house just in case you were wondering.  It makes the details of the house stand out.

The doors go here! This could be a really nice entry way!

Because I purchased this house I felt OK about selling my Happy Family Smart House to a fellow blogger!  You know who you are.  I don't plan to do that much painting to this house. Like I said,  I will paint over some of the red but that is about all with the painting and I will remove the sticker too.  I will be looking for formal scrapbook paper to add to the house. Because of its' color it will combine will with my Moxie Jammaz House facade and Cali Girl Hawaiian Hotel Resort. 

For that reason I am giving it the

#10 spot

on my best doll related purchases for 2012!

I know the design of this is very similar to the Grand Hotel and it too will go up for sale!  I don't want to have to paint over the pink. The VVictorian house is still up in the air!  This is a more manageable project and may be where I need to start.

Thanks For Looking!

St. Malcolm Will Get An Upgrade!

St. Malcolm Will Get An Upgrade!

I am working on bringing St Malcolm to life.

This is Camille, the owner of the Villa enjoying breakfast
there seaside.

To that end, I purchased one of my Holy Grail items-
The Mattel Cali Girl Hawaiian Hotel Resort.
It completes the other topical sets I have that I plan to use in
St. Malcolm. I purchased it from Bex at philosophy_shop.
who has a customized set posted on thedollpage for sale.
I do plan to customized this set (Harold will have to make
his way there) but for now I would like to show you the set.

It is not the complete original set but it does have all the key
pieces that I loved. Bex at philosophy_shop included a few
additional items for me so that I could customize this one.


As you can see from the two pictures above, it has a table and
chair set with an umbrella. Bex include the suitcases with the
swimsuits in them. There are tropical drinks too!

suit one!

...and suit two!


The two things you need in any hotel...coffee and a phone.

The room has a door that opens! See the room number.

You can enjoy the view from the balcony.

Purse, cart and chair.


I got some sodas. There is a window with a view too!

Camille check each room before guest check in!

She has to call the desk. They need more towels in this room.
Thanks for looking.
