Home-made Mekenna's Loft Bed

     Hey guys. You all know Mckenna's Loft Bed from AG, right? If you need me to refresh your memory, here's a pic:

Now you remember? Well guess what? It's like, $230!!! And now It's retired! Personally, I've always really liked it, but thought it was Tons to much money. But you know what? I found this epic video on YT,
And got my awesome uncle (thanks Jerry!) to help me with it. It doesn't look exactly like the one from AG,  but it still turned out really good. And remember he did it without any instruction! (he never did watch the vid.) I'm super happy agreed to help me. Even if it didn't come with the accessories. Now I'm working on sewing some bedding for it.

     If you try this out, post the results in the comments below! Later I'll post a pic of the bed we made, after it's painted. Thanks again, Jerry!

Cecile

     I was going to post this new year's eve, but I realised Girl Of The Year 2013 would be much more fun in 2012. And then I had to keep up with my daily vlogs on my other blog (check it out My Other Blog) and get new glasses and so much more. So now I'm finally getting to it. So here it is.

For Christmas 2012 I got American Girl Cecile Rey. I thought about re-naming her Noel, but decided against it. And she came with the middle name Amilee so I named her... Ta-day! Cecile Amilee Noel Rey. She has black ringlets with auburn highlights. She also has these curls right at the top of her head. Felicity and Elizabeth have them to. I'm pretty sure it starts with T. If you know what they're called comment down below. She also has hazel eyes and super chubby cheeks. Her meet outfit has a teal satin dress with velvet around the edge and neckline. Her accessories include a matching felt hat, white gloves, and a pearl necklace.


     She's super pretty and I'm really glad I got her. By the way, tell me in the comments who you think my next doll should be. I'm thinking about Ivy. Or mabey Marie-Grace because A: She has my name and B: I could have the best friends. But I don't really like Marie-Grace 'cause she's got such a pinched chin because of her heart-shaped face mold. Tell me below. Aloha-
