How to Make Your Doll a Pet Snake

-
I've already made this myself and you will see pictures soon, don't worry. I will post them today or tomorrow on Instagram. I decided to make this because American Girl's snake costs $30; and I thought I should share with you a way to make something similar. (kind of) It's super easy and I hope you enjoy!
Supplies:        
- a small, glass, cage-like-thing
- Model Magic (or air dry clay or Play-Dough)
- fake leaves (you will probably have to cut them so they are the correct size)
- small twigs that will fit in your cage
- acrylic paint in colors of your choice
- tinfoil or plastic wrap
- black permanent marker
- Mod Podge (optional)


Steps:
1: Mold you Model Magic into the shape of a snake. Make sure that it can fit into your cage.
2: Paint your snake with the acrylic paint. You may mix Mod Podge with the acrylic paint if you'd like to make the snake better quality and more realistic.
3: Let the paint dry.
4: Add eyes to the snake with a permanent marker.
5: Put the snake in the cage.
6: Add the fake leaves and twigs to the cage. (trust me, you want to put the snake in first)
7:  Put either tinfoil or plastic wrap over the top of the cage. 
8: Poke holes in the lid you just made so the snake can "breathe".

I hope this was helpful!

Thanks for reading!!!

Rainy Day (Blaire Short Story #1)

-
    First off, these aren't in any particular order, just little short stories about Blaire and what I think could happen in one of her stories. Also, sorry I'm writing this so late, I was going to write this yesterday, but I forgot to. In other words, I'm writing this at school. I hope you enjoy the story! (It's in Blarie's point of view.)      I stepped outside, that's when I remembered; it was raining. So then I turned around and went back inside. I wasn't wet thanks to the awning over our front porch. I went to the coat closet in my family's entry way and pulled out my lavender rain jacket and my floral umbrella. I threw on my rain jacket and opened the umbrella once I got onto the front porch. I then headed out in the pouring rain to the barn. My morning chore was to feed the animals and look for chicken eggs, which only took about forty-five minutes. Yet, I was often in the barn for much longer, just talking to the animals about my day; like they...

Regarding the Quality Change Rumors

-
    Yes, I know I left the Blaire short stories on a bit of cliffhanger, but I can't think of what to write next for the story. Plus, I feel like I'd probably end up making it a mystery because I'm writing a mystery story right now. I'm on my 11th chapter. Now, here's the actual post.      I wanted to address this because I've heard a lot about it and there are some things we need to remember. First thing that we need to remember, is that this is a rumor. We don't actually know if American Girl's quality will be all back to normal on January 1st. After all, that would take a lot of work to fix. This rumor was first addressed in late November, I believe and if it's true it would still take so much time to make all of those dolls. Remember, they need ones for shipping, and all of the AG stores. Even if they had figured this out earlier, it still just seems unlikely for it to be true. Secondly, even if it is true, American Girl hasn't addressed th...
