I had seen this idea years ago and finally had time to do it. Took pictures of the girls artwork and put it into a collage and then had it printed on a big canvas. The girls love it. Now it’s my new favorite piece of art. Had
www.prodigitalphotos.com printed it for me on a 2.5″ gallery wrap.
Canvases are from: www.cgproprints.com best prices ever!
Mya & Olivia’s room- Thanks www.customslipcoversbyshelley.blogspot.com/ for making these pillows and cushion for me!
I have been getting a ton of emails on where I got our American Girl house. We just bought this kid kraft dollhouse from costco a few years ago and took out a few walls and put new wallpaper up. (I just bought sample pieces) Dan replaced the 4 corner posts with different ones and spaced the flooring farther apart so it was a little taller.
| Yes people just fly in:) If you just send an email through that website, Mandy can answer any questions you might have. ( Jan 21st, 2013 6:23 am)Hi Katie!! I just realized your ad says this is an “out of state” workshop? How does that work? xoxo I love your blog I can’t get enough of baby photography soooo cute!! |

Oliva is 9!
She is obsessed with American girl dolls. She wanted McKenna’s bed this year instead of a party. Way easier on me and probably saved me money in the long run. Still had to get her a birthday cake! Dippidee always does such a great job. 
| Soo cute! I’m in love with that backdrop. Would you share where you bought it? Thanks! ( Mar 24th, 2013 5:38 pm)i love that. She is the cutest!! Love the cake, backdrop and fun fingernails:)!!! ( Nov 3rd, 2012 5:47 am)Wow, 9 already?! Where does time go? LOVE her cake Such a gorgeous girl! And I love that her doll was in all the pics with her. What a gem! Very sweet- happy birthday! Our 6 and 3 yr old girls are also into their AMG dolls. The papers in the back ground go so nicely with her pics! ( Oct 26th, 2012 2:38 am) |

( Mar 4th, 2013 8:44 pm)Gorgeous pictures of a gorgeous home, so cool to SEE your home! My hubby finally had time to build a doll house (two years after seeing yours featured) this Christmas for our girls AG dolls. They LOVE it & it’s HUGE!
I love what you’ve done with what I think might have been their playroom. The space is wonderful for the two to share, colors and brightness is wonderful. So sweet you posted where the window seat bench cushions were done. I have two window benches almost 80′ each in length that I”m still trying to determine what type of covering would work best. All the best and it’s too sweet to see the addition of your little man in the holiday pics! All the best
( Feb 11th, 2013 4:13 pm)The rug is from Anthropologie.

( Dec 20th, 2012 5:34 pm)Deidra- You are so funny! I don’t know what style it is. I would probably re-do my whole house to a more modern style if I could start my home over again. But right now it is more ecliptic I got most of my furniture from either west elm, anthropologie or evens gate house in Orem. I’m sure you could hire a real decorator but thanks for making me feel good:)
