Hi, Everyone! Today I’ll be showing you how to make Easter Graham Cracker Houses.
You’ll need;
Graham Crackers
Royal Icing
Peeps, or other marshmallow Easter candy (I’m using a dollar store peep knockoff)
Candies/sprinkles to decorate with
Step 1. Break the graham crackers into halves. You’ll need five halves and one whole cracker to make the houses.
Step 2. Pipe the icing onto the sides of the halves. Put it on two of the four sides.
Step 3. Put three of the halves together as shown….
Step 4. Now ‘glue’ the two halves that will be the roof together at an angle…
Step 5. Then carefully put the roof on. Now, DO NOT touch it for ten minutes. Otherwise all your hard work will fall in a heap. 🙁 I learned this by trial and error.
Step 6. After staring intently at your delicious creation-in-progress for a grueling ten minutes, pipe some frosting onto the whole cracker and place your house on top.
Step. 7. (yes, I know this has a lot of steps) Now you can decorate! Use Jellybeans, gumdrops, sprinkles, whatever you want to decorate the house. Be creative and have fun!
Step 8. The last thing to do is to glue your little peep/marshmallow thing in. (This should be pretty self-explanatory)
Ta-da! You’re done! Here is Ellie smiling at the camera and resisting the temptation to gobble both houses up in a matter of seconds. (Because, believe me, it’s tempting!)
Great job Natalie! 😀 You made me really hungry. 😉

Hi Everyone! Today I’m going to show you how to make doll-sized bunny cookies!
What you will need is:
Pink puffy paint
Black puffy paint
White puffy paint
Tan craft foam
Scissors
Toothpicks (not shown)
First you need to cut an oval out of your tan craft foam. I made mine about one inch long and 1/2 an inch wide.
Next put some white puffy paint on the cookie. Make sure you don’t cover the entire thing.
The final step is to decorate! You might need to use a toothpick to add the eyes.
That’s it! Make sure that you let the cookies dry before you give them to your doll.

Recently my mom and I made this bedding for Molly and Linda for Christmas!
I made it to look like the bedding on Molly’s red bed.
Hi Everyone!

Hi Everyone!
Yesterday I decided to make some stockings for my dolls.
You will need:
- Scissors
- A marker
- Hot Glue Gun
- Hot glue sticks
- Glitter Glue (optional)
- A pattern ( You can make your own, but I used THIS pattern from AMERICAN GIRL IDEAS.)
Step one: Trace your pattern onto felt.
Step two: Cut it out.
Step three: Repeat steps one and two.
Step four: Glue the sides of the stocking pieces together. Make sure you don’t glue the top together.
Step five: Glue on a strip of felt for a hanger.
Step six: Decorate!
Step seven: Make one for each doll that needs a stocking! Don’t worry I fixed Chrissa’s name! 🙂
Hi Everyone!
Today Saige suggested I made an art book printable so here it is:
I hope you like it!

Hi Everyone! Happy World Smile Day! 😀
You can learn more about World Smile Day here.
To celebrate I made a printable.
Click here for the printable.
Print it out, cut each smile out, and attach them to a Popsicle stick, pipe cleaner, toothpick, or piece of skewer.
If you are having trouble cutting them out, cut an oval around each one and color the oval in skin color.
If you can only print in back and white you can color them in with markers. (I did this.)
If you don’t have a printer then you can print it out at Staples.
Here are some pictures of my dolls having fun with them:
These dolls will be available in my shop soon:
Even the pets wanted to try them:
I hope these made you smile! 😀
Please leave a comment or use the NEW Contact Me page here to send me a picture if you made these.
