How To Realistically Pack And Travel With An American Girl Doll As An Adult Collector

[@AllycatlovesAG]

Are you going anywhere this summer?

[@AllycatlovesAG]

@@creationswithag5621 ooh I’ve never been to Colorado! Have fun

[@innerstarstudioss]

I’m going to Tennessee tomorrow.

[@CureRash008]

Yeh, I’m going to Las Vegas soon!

[@plumsparkles945]

Yes. I'm volunteering at Clearwater Marine Aquarium

[@AllycatlovesAG]

@@plumsparkles945 ooh fun! Dolphin tale

The new AG doll carrier is really cool. I ususlly travel with that, it really protects your doll. I also take doll luggage bag and a backpack with some stuff.

[@theanimecorner3384]

My sister and I have “my life as” carriers and they work wonders

[@abbysdollhouseag2160]

This video was super helpful! I'm known in my family for overpacking, especially for my dolls!! I always bring a ton of doll clothes that I never end up using. I'm going on a trip soon, and since I take a lot more photos of my dolls than I used to and play with them less, I think it will be easier to not overpack! Packing is my favourite part of travelling with my doll, so I'm really looking forward to it!

[@AllycatlovesAG]

Most photos are top up anyways so I would prioritize packing different shirts over pants

[@AnAGDollslife]

Thank you for making this. As a person who travels a lot and usually brings a doll or two this is very helpful! And I think I saw on your AGIG The agtubers were Ag Jitters and Emerald Ag :)

[@SunnyDaysAG]

This is the BEST doll packing video!

[@LadybugAG06]

11:01 I’ve kept the dolls braids in for probably a year at this point 😭 I should probably take them out, I just haven’t had the chance. I meant to take them out, but I forgot

[@nicoledollag5811]

Loved the video! The information was so useful, I’m definitely like you and would over pack for my dolls when I was younger. I am so exited because I am traveling to the Dominican Republic this summer!! 🤍

[@AllycatlovesAG]

Ooh so cool! Have fun

[@melangellperry5984]

Great ideas. I’ve used the ziplocks for clothes and accessories for years. I’ve never seen or even thought about putting a doll inside a sleeping bag head first. Great tip! I’ll be using it this summer when we go to Yellowstone. We travel at least once a year by car and plane and I always have at least 1 Doll with me.

[@AllycatlovesAG]

Have fun on your trip!

[@adayinthedollhouse1004]

I recently went traveling for 4 months… I took three dolls and way too many clothes and accessories… and I used them like 5 times. But I did lug them all around the world so at least I can tick that off my bucket list 🙄

[@AllycatlovesAG]

4 months though! You probably underpacked haha

[@stella_11.]

I agree with the doll luggage part. Plastic doll luggages can't hold like anything but I do have a Our Generation luggage made of fabric that can fit 3 pants, 2 tops, a PJ set plus accessories.

[@AllycatlovesAG]

I'm traveling in just over a month and I'm still loyal to the plastic bag haha.

[@stella_11.]

[@steph585]

Wow! That was a great video! Thank you. Will be taking a doll or two to a mountain resort. Car trip. I think I’ll do your giant tote bag idea, with ziplock storage. I love the tip of dressing in such a way to avoid scratching and managing the hair with braids. Great ideas.

[@Jael_25]

Love this vid!!!!!! Thanks for sharing!!!! I think you are meeting with Agjitters!!!

[@LivVlogzs]

This has helped a lot I am going to NYC in 3 weeks and I am bringing my ag doll for the first time I am staying there for 4nights 5 days! Ty!

[@TheDollFam]

I love this video so much!!!! These tips were what I needed lol 😂 I also love Alana she looks so cute in that outfit!!!!! I also love how you do a slight customisation to her eyes!!! This was an amazing video!!

[@AllycatlovesAG]

I didn’t customize her eyes actually! Probably just good lightning haha

[@joannaliwanag2749]

I have an AG backpack to fit 1 doll in, or I could use my AG doll tote to carry 2 dolls.

[@AllycatlovesAG]

I usually pack other things such as electronics and snacks in my bag, so I find it’s more practical to use a proper backpac

[@aliceindollland]

I wish I knew about the sleeping bag tip when I brought my doll to Florida with me last month. Even though her clothes covered her limbs, when i took her out of my carryon she somehow managed to get a big stain on one of her hands 😅 Will definitely be doing that in the future!

[@AllycatlovesAG]

Oh no!

[@irohalxvs]

thank you for this!! im going camping in europe soon and i wanna bring one of my dolls with me 🥰

[@xxsimply_orchidyt8953]

Thx and I might bring one I mine to Denmark 🇩🇰

[@circusandtea]

This was super helpful!! Definitely keeping these tips in mind for vacations!

[@agappleslices]

These were great tips! I just went to Ohio and I should of used these tips! I’ll be going to San Diego CA in the summer! I hope you have great time on your trip! ~Sofie

[@AGBob_DollPants]

THANK YOU FOR THIS!!! So many people need this. Also, I was planning on posting my packing video for Florida today as well 💀 oops

[@AGBob_DollPants]

Also, every single trip video I’ve seen except for the agoverseasfan ones, I NEVER see people use all the outfits they bring during the travel video

[@AllycatlovesAG]

So far the only items I have not used are the passport (too shy to take airport photos in public), the shorts (don’t want her getting scuffed) and the blue top but I may take a few more photos before I go home.

[@SkyViølet95]

Thanks for the tips! I am going on vacation this week!

[@innerstarstudioss]

The AGTuber you met totally wasn’t Andrea. Totally didn’t see that on your agig…Oh and you met Emerald AG I’m pretty sure… Anyways this was perfect!! I’m literally packing for vacation today and leaving tomorrow! This is honestly such a perfect video and is super helpful! Also Alana is super cute in this video and now I really want her.

[@AllycatlovesAG]

Get a Nanea!!

[@LillysUnicorn]

This was very handy because im going on a plane in November so thank you very much, great video

[@AllycatlovesAG]

Have fun on your trip

[@bcsdollplace]

Great video the tips are very useful.

[@Libraryofthedolls3001]

I’m going to Tennessee later this summer. Not sure if I’ll bring a doll yet, probably not. The family I’m traveling with are not very “doll friendly “ 🙄. Maybe when I go to Disney in the fall.

[@AllycatlovesAG]

Dolls can definitely be a hassle to travel with so don’t feel obligated to take them on every trip!

[@adayinthedollhouse1004]

Your doll looks soooo cute in that outfit!

[@DollxStudios]

Mexico! Btw loved the video keep up the good work!

[@AllycatlovesAG]

Ooh! I’ve only been to Canada and USA so I really want to go to Mexico

[@RoyaleAG77]

Hi Ally! It me The Christan Fangirl. I finally made my AG channel!! My first vid is up and it's a travel vid, however the comments are restricted for some reason. Any ideas why? Great vid as always!

[@TheChristianFangirl]

Hi me! Lol

[@AllycatlovesAG]

To be honest I don’t even understand why I have comments. I know KZbin turns them off on a lot of “kids channels” and I don’t try to target kids, I just try to be family friendly. I get many comments from adults and parents but the occasional one from a kid (if you are under 13 you shouldn’t technically be on KZbin). I’m going to assume I have comments due to my content being more talking rather then an agsm but I truly have no idea why KZbin turns off some and not others. My channel is intended for viewers 13+ though

[@Travel.875]

I love ya❤❤❤❤ your channel is AMAZING❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@maisiejanes9098]

This may sound like a weird question, but what do you actually do with your dolls? Do you play pretend with them or just enjoy dressing them up? I have 2 dolls but don’t know any other people like me, so I’m curious as to what other people get out of the hobby.

[@AllycatlovesAG]

For me since I’ve been on social media for so long, it’s more about the community. I’ve made some of my closest friends because of my doll hobby so that helps keep me into it. I usually just change their hair and outfits and display them. Sometimes I take photos as well. I also sew for them. I’m not that creative so playing isn’t really my thing… it’s more like showing off my collection

[@dream5agstudios]

California! Thanks for the tips!

[@steph585]

Great video!

[@simplysteIla]

this was really helpful thank you for this video

[@mistymccracken2243]

[@Lavender_Aura_Collects]

What grade of micro-mesh do you use on your dolls? I’ve encountered my first shine mark *sob* I think my engagement ring got my mini-me lol

[@AllycatlovesAG]

Oh no! I don’t remember off the top of my head… but there is a KZbin video about how to remove shine marks (I think they demonstrated on a Nellie doll) and I use the ones recommended in that video

[@Lavender_Aura_Collects]

@@AllycatlovesAG thank you so much! I’ll look for it :)

[@shelbylovesag]

A nice hack to try if you don’t have a doll sleeping bag is a human sized pillow case .

[@AllycatlovesAG]

Oooh yes i have seen that before! I think there would be more excess fabric taking up space though

[@Lowkeybris]

Early🎉🎉🎉 ❤ your vid’s!

I’m going to Disneyworld with my dolls! I know this is a year old but I still wanna comment ha ha

I brought a doll to Disney last year! I believe it’s my most “recent” video haha! That may be helpful

Anyone know what day AG issues AG rewards

This comment is so random compared to the content of this video…

@@AllycatlovesAG I just thought maybe since ur such a huge AG fan you may know

[@AllycatlovesAG]

@@americangirldollcarlysdoll631 I get most of my ag stuff from Canada and therefore it’s the rewards system of the store not the AG one. I don’t know much about AG’s rewards program

Hi I wouldn't bring your doll with you to pack or take anywhere Right now People are getting crazier and more desperate someone can easily steal your doll and then turn around and Easley sell the doll. when I'd wanted to pack one of my doll's to take with me I don't bring any extra outfits or Assccories,just the doll brush and a hair tie, i might change her outfit before taking her with me or I just keep her in the outfit that she has on and depending on what doll I want to take with me she might or might not be wearing shoes. Then I braid her hair or put in a ponytail so that her hair doesn't get messed up.

[@AllycatlovesAG]

I have never heard of people stealing American girl dolls… just like any personal item as long as you keep an eye on your doll in the airport and keep her in a safe drawer in your hotel room they should be fine
