SHOPPING FOR YOUR AMERICAN GIRL DOLL - PART 3

This week I am in a creating mood again and working on handcrafting Halloween outfits and costumes for American Girl 18 inch Dolls.  I will be listing them in my store as I get them completed.  Since they require a little bit of time to create, I will be listing them over the next few weeks.

Last week, I listed some sport short sets and will be adding more later as the football season gets closer.  This is my Georgia Tech shorts set.  Do you have a favorite football team?  I do custom orders and would be happy to make an outfit for your doll for game day.  I have several years of sewing experience and make my doll clothing to last.    

 

In checking for sales this week, I see that American Girl.com still has a summer sale going where you can save up to 50% on select items.  When they have sales on their merchandise, they usually update their website on Sunday's.  I do not know how much longer the sale will run, but if you have some extra money right now, you might want to pick up some cute outfits for Christmas gifts.  I saw some really nice ones on sale.

This week my 50% off sale items are a pink velour zip up dress ,
Pink striped rugby dress, and a lavender soccer set.

Pink Velour zip with dress with hood.

Pink striped Rugby style dress

Limited quantities are available on these items and prices will be good for one week.  

Shopping tip for this week:

When browsing the internet for merchandise, stop and take time to read the item description and the shipping time.  A lot of shoppers are buying directly from China through EBay and becoming upset because it takes them up to 30 days, sometimes longer to get their merchandise.  The listing clearly tells them how long it takes, but they did not take the time to read the listing.  If the seller has not taken the time to provide enough details on an item for sale, take time to email them and ask them for details before buying.  They should get back to you within 24 hours.  If not, pass the item over and pick something else.  Reputable sellers will respond politely to your questions and address all of your concerns within that time limit.

Thank you for taking the time to read my blog and feel free to make a comment.
