Last Tuesday I ordered two big pieces of doll furniture…
Last Thursday I used a gift card to buy another piece of doll furniture…
That day the two other pieces arrived…
So guess what I’ve been doing with my free time on Thursday and Friday? ?
IT’S SO MUCH FUN! ? If you read part 2 of HOTH season 2 you know that I finally ordered two doll bunk beds with my birthday money (that I had gotten all the way back in June :P ). They arrived on Thursday, but you know this. What you don’t know is the story behind the other piece of furniture that I was able to get that day!
I’ve wanted this for such a long time! But we don’t shop at Target anymore so I figured I’d never be able to get it. As well as anything from Our Generation. :(
Well guess what?
Somebody bought me a bunch of clothes from Target as a gift. I returned them and got a $107 gift card. I was able to buy the Our Generation Wooden Wardrobe with it! And there’s still money left on the card. ? It’s a win-win – Target doesn’t get my money and I get the Wooden Wardrobe for free. ?
But back to the bunk beds, since I assembled those first. Here is the first single bed, finally completed! It took the first one longer to assemble because, well, it was first and building things isn’t my strongpoint (aka I kept messing it up ?), but all the others were easier since I knew what to do by then. :P
Two single beds completed! They come with extra knobs to put on the top of the posts of the other bed so you can have two single beds if you’d prefer.
YAY! The first bunk bed is completed! Isn’t it BEAUTIFUL?! I love it so much! Definitely worth my first $55. ?
GAH! I could die over the cuteness! I’ve wanted bunk beds for such a long time and now I finally have them!
The ladder is SO cute! And the bedding is amazing!
Josefina was the first to check it out.
And Chloe’s not far behind! She thinks it is very comfortable but requests that she gets the top bunk with Ellie on the bottom. ?
Eek! It looks perfect! I love it so much! I might make different bedding for it in the future, but right now I like it because it matches the color of my walls pretty well. Here you see the bunk beds just kinda hanging out until I can organize everything.
And now it’s time for the second bed. :P
AHH! It’s so cute!! This is EXACTLY the setup I had envisioned. I just love gazing at my doll room and looking at the neat little beds… They’re so cute. The $110 for both beds was well spent. Absolute perfection!
You can buy your own bunk beds here:
As if that wasn’t enough excitement, I dove headfirst into setting up the Wooden Wardrobe! It’s already assembled and just so amazing. I love it. ?
And then I decided to just reorganize my entire doll room. Why not? ?
Such a project went on well into Friday.
And here’s the doll room, late Friday night (hence the bad lighting… heh heh), completely finished! It took a while to figure out where everything would go, but I’m SO happy with how it turned out! I even vacuumed. :P
The wardrobe is AWESOME. There’s so much storage!
Here’s how I set it up. The door with the mirror folds out, and I’m just keeping it that way. It came with a little pink vanity seat, but I’m not using it. I didn’t like the pink ribbons attached to everything because the ribbons looked messy, so I tried untying them but they’re glued on. :P
All the dresses and coats are hung up in the closet part of the wardrobe. I didn’t like the hot pink Our Generation hangers that it came with, so I’m using my own. If you ever plan on getting it, keep in mind that the AG hangers fit the best in here. The ones from the “Sofia’s” brand are big and it will make the longer dresses touch the bottom.
So I eventually hung the longer dresses on the AG hangers I had; that lifted the hem off the floor. I put the shorter ones of the lower-hanging Sofia’s hangers.
On the left you see the shelves. That’s where I put all the shoes. I really like it that way. The taller boots won’t fit in there (unless you want to lay them on their side), so in the bottom left corner of the pic you can see some tall boots just hanging out by the computer desk. ;)
In the drawer I put thin jackets, all the skirts, and some PJ’s.
There’s a ton of storage on the top! YAY! From left to right:
•The white bin in the back holds roller skates.
•The blue bin holds swim suits.
•The smaller green laundry basket holds shoes made out of fabric.
•The larger green laundry basket holds leotards and larger clothing accessories like Josefina’s vest and her shawl.
•The light green basket holds tops.
•The pretty basket all the way on the right holds bottoms like leggings, jeans and shorts.
If I haven’t said it a hundred times already, this setup is so cute. I love it. Makes me just want to stop motion all day long in here!
The sadly unpainted sock drawer. :( :P
The beds! ? My mom had some sneaky fun arranging the stuffed animals while I was busy re-organizing. Look at the little turtle peeking out behind the blue pillow on Molly’s bed! Aww!
And aw!! look at Snowy on the top bunk!! He’s so cute!! ?
Over here we have some more accessories.
*cringes at the bad lighting* :P
A little bin of bracelets.
The underwear drawer. Moving on. :P
In this blue set of drawers we have more accessories. The bottom drawer holds thinner, easily folded hats.
The miscellaneous middle drawer holds small, random accessories like Josefina’s pouch, tiaras, etc.
And the top has hair bows and sunglasses.
The other big doll accessories are in my big, white cubby. If you look all the way to the right you can see the pink vanity seat from the Wooden Wardrobe I’m not using. :)
I can’t get over how cute the entire room is! This has to be one of my very favorite setups. I just love it. ?
My doll room organizing days are far from over! :P Now I have to re-do Issa and Lexi’s bedroom from Hang on to Hope. I had to get all the furniture out of there to see how the finished result would look in my doll room and there was no way I could wait until the end of season 2 to do that. ?
Oh, and expect some AGSM’s in the future. I can’t wait to get started stop motioning in my new beautiful doll room. ?
Well, that’s about it! Thanks for reading, y’all!
What do you think about my finished doll room?
Love,
Your doll room is spectacular! WOW! I have a five-room dollhouse in my basement which I’m re-painting…but the lighting isn’t very good down there so I haven’t taken many pictures. :(
Again, your dollhouse is amazing! I can’t wait to see more of it!
Thank you SO much! Your dollhouse sounds awesome – I wish I had an 18″ dollhouse! :P
Thanks again!! :D

You’re SO welcome! Aww, thank you! My dad and I built it last summer. :)
You’re welcome! And wow! That’s so neat. Did y’all build it from scratch?
•Madi•
This is gorgeous! It’s so organized and absolutely awesome! I love, love, love the set up and I am really liking that wardrobe!!! That’s a brilliant idea with the earrings- I totally need to do that… I’m currently stuck with two pairs… and one is mismatched. :D That goes to show how UN-organized I am! But I am going to go do that… as soon as I have free time!

Thank you so very much, Light4theLord! :D :D LOL! I’m not organized all the time, either. You should see my horrendous sewing closet. ? Hope you have fun making the felt-earring thing if you do that! :D
•Madi•
Amazing! I would totally make a doll room if I didn’t have such a small room or have to share it :( :P.
Thank you! Yeah. :P
•Madi•
That’s amazing! I love it!
Thank you so much!! :D

P.S. Snowy is so adorable! :D
Thank you! The wardrobe is definitely great for storage, I’m super happy with it. :D
•Madi•
P.S. Hehe, I know! ? He says thanks. ;D
So Cute! The bunk – beds look cozy!
Thank you so much! My dolls certainly agree with the coziness. ?
•Madi•
It looks great! I find it so nice to have everything neat and orderly! …and then it can quickly get messy again… :-( :-P The stuffed animals are so cute! And so is Ellie’s hair! :-D
~Gracie
Thank you so much, Gracie! I know, right? It looked all organized and neat earlier today, but then I got my dolls ready for a post and it looks messy now. I need to clean it up again. ? And thank you very much! :D
•Madi•
Wow! Great tour! My dolls are so Jeleaous!? Not really. Ok maybe a little ? I have a question does you Jasmine have frizzy dry hair? Cause my Saige does. I’m just so sick of it? I think I’ll send her to the doll hospital for a new head and maybe even Carolina cause she’s my favorite doll and I want her to look her best. but the thing is the braid that she comes with well when you take out the braid hair is in her face well I cut it. So if I got an new head well she would come with her braid and then hair would be in her face again so Ugh. I know every long comment. Again great post!
?-KIKI-?
Thank you so much! Haha, LOL! ;P My Jasmine has slightly dry, frizzy tips, but all of her hair isn’t that way. That’s so neat you might send your dolls to the doll hospital! What do you mean by her hair is in her face when you take out the rope braid? (I’m assuming you mean Saige) I don’t think my Jasmine’s hair was in her face when I took out her rope braid, so that’s interesting that your Saige’s hair was. Were you scared to cut her hair?
Thanks again! :D
•Madi•
You’re welcome! ? Yeah Saige’s hair is just so bad? Sorry I meant Carolina’s hair(Grace) when she comes with the French braid when you take it out hair is in her face. So I cut it. Umm maybe a little but it payed off!? You’re welcome! ?
?-Kiki-?
Ohh! Yeah, I get what you mean. Carolina/Grace looks really pretty! I couldn’t tell her hair was cut at all! It definitely payed off. ?

Thanks again! :D
•Madi•
So cool! I love the way you organized it. :) My brother just made Carmen a doll bunk bed for her birthday that looks a lot like yours. :D Mary Ellen is quite happy in it, along with her OG doll. :P
Thank you so much! Their room looks quite, er, messy now… XD Oooh, that’s so cool! I wanted to build some custom bunk beds for my dolls too, but then just gave in and ordered some… :P Hehe! :P
Wish I had a room for my dolls, I would totally copy you!!!! This is so cute!
Aw, that means so much! You’re so sweet!
