Dolls and Jewelry, What More Could One Want?



Now is the time of year that you look over your Christmas list and see who you need to buy for. If you have a little girl on your list, I've got the gift for you. Our Generation Me & You Jewellery Kit is perfect for that doll lover on your list.

Stella and Maizie were given the opportunity to try out the Our Generation Me & You Jewellery Kit and they were thrilled.
 

What is it? It is a craft kit that coordinates with Our Generation dolls  (sold exclusively at Target) and little girls. The kit makes bracelets for girls and for the dolls as well.

Stella love dolls and jewelry, she almost exploded with joy when this came into the house and Maizie wasn’t going to let this opportunity pass her by.  They begged and pleaded to get started.

The kit comes with three bracelets for the girls and two for the dolls. There are five ribbons to make the bracelets and four sets of string to embellish them. What more could a girl want?


The hardest decision was which ribbon to use on which bracelet. Once the decisions were made, we started. It took a few tries to get the hang of it, but once we did, it only took a few minutes to complete the bracelet.







The girls couldn’t wait to get them onto the dolls (and themselves).



Stella wore her bracelets to school every day.



*Disclosure-I was given a Our Generation doll and the Me & You Jewellery Kit to facilitate this post, but as always the opinions are all my own.
