[@AGTV4Life]

Thank you! I’m so glad you enjoyed the video, I had so much fun with the unboxing! 🥰

[@melangellperry5984]

Great video! I love the kitty cat outfit and the sweater from Maplelea. The reproduction outfits are amazing as well.

[@AGTV4Life]

@@melangellperry5984 right?! The Kitty 🐈‍⬛ outfit is so stinkin cute!

[@TeresaMinsinger]

Loved the Maplea kitty set. It is too cute .

[@AGTV4Life]

@@TeresaMinsinger totally agree 💯!!

[@stephaniefriend9912]

what awesome pieces you got! for that sweater dress situation .. maybe use the old circle buttons but the new velvet . the circle buttons look better & the Maplelea pieces are so beautifully done !! i don’t have any of their pieces yet … but seeing yours i am going to the website & checking out what they have !! Happy Birthday! 📣🌟🎂🎼 wishing you a cherished year❣️❣️

[@AGTV4Life]

@@stephaniefriend9912 awe thank you! Let me know if you buy anything from Maplelea. The only issue with ordering from them is that the Canadian postal service is on strike and Maplelea is using another service to get merch shipped. I think the company is taking a hit on the cost and not passing on to the consumer. I’m going with your idea for the dress situation and agree that the original buttons look so much better.

Great video Happy belated Birthday the outfits look wonderful on the girls

[@AGTV4Life]

@@nailahvenable7989 thank you so much!! Nice to see you pop in. How are you doing? Ready for the holidays?

[@nailahvenable7989]

@@AGTV4Life A little overwhelmed but keeping it together for the girls. Like you were saying in the video I also need to go through my collection getting to large and the girls are getting new dolls for Christmas and a stable with 2 horses. Our stable will not look like yours butters is a lucky horse. I really like the Maplelea outfits I have a few in my collection and plan to order some more for me after Christmas rush. This will be my Kwanza present. Have a great holiday see you in the net video or at AG NYC

15:07 The green brush from your Girl Again bag is a back brush for cleaning your back in the shower.

[@AGTV4Life]

@@melangellperry5984 is it for dolls? It seems so oversized lol

[@melangellperry5984]

@ I’m pretty sure it’s for dolls. My human one is about 2 feet long.

[@AGTV4Life]

@@melangellperry5984 yeah, I was joking since I have one too. It’s really something how much stuff is made for dolls ~ just like humans. I was just catching up on you IG posts of your trip.

[@melangellperry5984]

34:25 I would remove the velvet ribbon and replace it and then reuse the original button. It also looks like that piece of ribbon on that side is slightly crooked. I wonder since the package was so rumpled, if it got caught in a sorting machine by that button? Or maybe her glue wasn’t dry when it got sent (although that seems strange).

[@AGTV4Life]

@@melangellperry5984 I like your suggestions. Thanks. Perhaps the package got caught in a sorting machine and I think the button just wasn’t secured properly (centered) and the dried glue wasn’t noticed. Idk

Hi Jo! I hope you had a happy birthday and you and your family are having a Merry Christmas. I made some of my first clay food a month or so ago. I made suckers and it was fun. I'm such a beginner!

[@AGTV4Life]

My birthday was marvelous!! That sounds fun! I hope you post some pics of your food on social media so I can see or email pictures to at agtv4lifee.com and I'll check it out.

[@gloriasoto5988]

Happy birthday!

[@AGTV4Life]

@@gloriasoto5988 thank you so much!!

[@katherinejohnson4184]

What an awesome haul of stuff. WOW those $5 grab bags are so cool. I love how much you can fit into those bags. I so wished I lived close by so I could go shop. Some of those outfits from amazon are too cute. And I've never bought anything from Maplelea but I think I might have to after seeing so many great items that people have of their brand. I love all the dolls dressed up for the holidays. You have such a wonderful collection.

[@AGTV4Life]

Awe thank you! I love sharing my doll world 🥰 Thanks for watching! I agree, the $5 grab bags are a great deal!

[@HerAndHymn]

I was just about to say the same!

[@AGTV4Life]

@@TeresaMinsinger great suggestion. I’ve never had one before, have you?

[@TeresaMinsinger]

@@AGTV4Life I have not, but I have seen it out when dining. I am more of wine connoisseur (snob).

[@nanasewdear]

Oh my gawd...what a pest I am!! I've seen miniaturized Bradbury & Bradbury wallpaper on Etsy, I think. I think I saw 1/3 scale but I might be wrong. Bradbury reproduces antique wallpaper room sets. They would be perfect for Samantha. Full size they'd be perfect for my old house but I'm not a millionaire... Anyway, I'd just type it into a Google search and see what you can find. Even Amazon might have something.

[@AGTV4Life]

I will have to check that out! I'm always looking for ideas just like this!! Thank you so much!

[@JoanneSag]

I would try to remove the glue. What do you have to loose?

[@AGTV4Life]

True, and I did that so now I’m just going to replace the velvet.

[@nanasewdear]

Just got to the part with your button and glue dilemma. If all else fails, maybe try touching up the glue on the velvet with a sharpie. If it doesn't show when on display it's fine. Otherwise maybe sew on the new velvet and go to Hobby Lobby and find new buttons. Their buttons are always cheap.

[@AGTV4Life]

That is a great idea! 🥰
