My Life Scooter

I found Walmart’s My Life Scooter in Phoenix (2017).

There were so many new accessories to be found there and I had a really great time searching them out.  This scooter is cute and though it’s a little big for my girls, they are able to ride it anyway.

I found them for $14.62 USD.  I bought 2 of them so that the girls could go out in pairs.I intend to paint them at a later date as I am not fond of the pink and purple coloring.  I find that most of the My Life furniture and accessories are close to the Barbie colors and I’m very tired of pink. (grin)

In the photos below, you can see that even though the Scooters are a little big, Wiccah and Tierra look like they are enjoying the ride!

 A great addition to my collection.

My Life Student Desk

With the decision to incorporate a classroom into the Magic and Mayhem series confirmed, there was a lot of thought into how I was going to work around 13 dolls.  I decided that since the girls are divided into “Chapters”, this was a good division for how they would be separated into classrooms too.  Add that to the fact that I was only able to get 4 school room accessories - that sealed the deal. The next step was to create a classroom and when I happen to run across a picture of the school desks from Wal-Mart, well, I had to have them!  They were on my list of things I had hoped to find in my 2017 Phoenix trip.  As it turned out, I did find 2 desks at one Wal-Mart.

One was pink and purple, the other purple and blue.  I really liked the purple and blue as I am pretty much “pink”ed out.  I didn’t want to lose out on getting any desks at all, I decided I would take them both and hoped I’d find others to have a full set of 4.  The next time I found them at Wal-Mart I was lucky enough to find 3 blue and purple desks.  Now I have a full set of 4 with the extra pink one.

The school desk is sold as 1 unit for $9.97 USD.  However, the desk part comes apart from the chair so if you wanted to use the chairs as simply a chair, it works.  The other removable piece is the basket shelf under the chair which clips into the chair legs.  These desks are super cute and I’m really glad that I found all 4 in the same colors.  They fit the girls well.

Now when the girls are learning to perfect their magic in class, they can learn in a proper school setting!

My Life Shopping Basket

Walmart brought out a shopping basket for the My Life doll accessories and I found them during my 2017 Phoenix trip.  There were $7.97 and I bought 2.  Later on the return trip home I found another in Montana and picked it up.

I haven’t seen these at home yet and who knows if they will come here or not.  I have been buying everything that interests me when I am travelling because I never know if we are going to get these or not where I live.

The decision to construct a General Store for the girls to work and shop in meant that I would need shopping baskets and carts.  Walmart has the shopping cart on line but it’s always out of stock and I’ve never seen it in the stores.  The shopping basket was then a very welcome addition to the accessories for the girls.

Along with the basket comes a tomato, an orange, a bunch of grapes, a loaf of bread, a pineapple, apple and banana, a bottle of orange drink, a can of peas and green beans, bottle of water, box of eggs (no carton) box cake mix, mac and cheese, and a carton of tropical fruit juice.  And can you believe all that comes in that little basket!

The size of the basket fits my girls and it is a great addition to their accessories.  It will be fun to build and stock the general store and the Shopping Basket is a fantastic find.

My Life Back to School Accessories is a cute set. 

I managed to get 4 of them so that each of the girl’s “Chapter’s” can go to class at the same time.  When I decided that they would attend the School for Magic, this set was a must have.  It comes with a laptop (which I will detail at a later date as it is just molded plastic) a sandwich, water bottle, an apple, folder, cell phone and a backpack.  A couple of the items are a little big for my girls but the rest are a great size.

In this picture Wiccah is using the laptop and the next is the backpack.

The backpack is versatile as they can use it for school, camping, hiking and any outdoor activity too.

Garden Wheel Barrow

While in Phoenix (2017) I was in Wal-Mart and saw a cute little wheel barrow on the shelf by itself.  It had no tag, nothing to identify where it was from.  I figured that it was from a set that was opened by a customer.

Then at a different Wal-Mart a few days later I was looking at the My Life doll section when I saw 2 of them stacked on the shelf featuring My Life doll furniture.  Still nothing to identify it so this time I thought they must be a single sold item.  I found a clerk and asked if she knew the price.  She didn’t but the manager decided to give them to me for $3.00 USD each.  I thought that was a good bargain.

Since I bought the My Life garden accessories set in 2016 when it came out at home, I figured this was an awesome find.  I plan to make a garden for the girls and this would fit right in with their other gardening accessories.

My Life as a Garden Set

I found the My Life as a Garden Set at Walmart here at home and bought one to add to the vegetable garden I have been designing for the girls.  This set was $9.97 and includes 1 potted plant, 1 potted strawberry plant, a watering can, 2 packs of seeds, 1 pair of snips, 1 garden fork and 1 garden spade.

However, while on my Phoenix 2017 trip I happen to run across this set again where they were clearing them out.  They were on sale for $4.00 US.

When I got to the cash register I was surprised when the set came up at $2.00.  For that I went back and grabbed 3 more thinking that my granddaughter would love a set like this for her doll.  I absolutely love it and the sizing seems to work well with my dolls.

I like it when I can find 3 – 4 of the same sets so that I can have several dolls working with the accessories at the same time.  The garden and lawns will be well tended now.

Wecome Sundancer!

My trip to Phoenix in 2017 netted me some great stuff for the girls.  But the one “fantastic find” was not in the least expected.

I must live under a rock or something because I didn’t realize the Our Life accessories line had a foal!  I found it in a Wal-Mart on the way through Las Vegas and was like, What???!!!!  However, I didn’t buy it there as I thought for sure I would find them again when we got to Phoenix.

One Phoenix Wal-Mart in particular was clearing out the Christmas stock and I found this little one on sale for $10.00 USD.  Normally it was $14.97 but when you look at the exchange ratio in Canadian dollars, getting it on sale was like buying it for $14.97 at home.  Except I’d never seen this one at home and I know if I did, it would be about $25 instead.

This cute little foal is light brown in color and will be the offspring of Stormrider and Windsong.  I’ve decided this foal would be female and I named her Sundancer.

I have no storylines for a foal yet.  I need to decide if the girls will find the horses and the foal come at a later time, or include the foal when the girls discover the horses for the first time. 

With the addition of Sundancer, new accessories are required and a bigger stall for her and Windsong to share so that mom and baby stay together.

Now, wouldn’t it be great if I could find another foal in the tan color of the other two horses….

One never knows what I will stumble across next!

Update: Since I wrote this post I found the foal in a Wal-Mart close to home.  She retails at $24.95 (just like I suspected).  I got a steal of a deal while in Phoenix.  I’m crossing my fingers that I can find more colors on my next trip.

My Life as a Picnic Basket Set

Wal-Mart’s My Life as a Picnic Basket play set is adorable.  The set comes with enough accessories for 2 dolls. I ended up buying 3 sets as I wanted more than 2 girls to be able to go on a picnic together.

In each set you get a blue and white gingham blanket, a picnic basket, 2 goblets, 2 bowls, 2 plates, 2 forks and 2 spoons.  It was a shame that there were no knives included with the set.  It would have been nice to have a full set of cutlery.

As you can see in the photo below, all the accessories fit my girls very well.  Bring on the summer fun!

Back Yard Blow-Up Swimming Pool

I wanted a pool for the girls for summer scenes and thought a blow-up pool would be ideal for them.  It took a long time before I found one the right size at the dollar store. 

It’s supposed to be a kiddy pool and is rated for 4 years old and up but to be quite honest, it’s not even big enough for a toddler. It is 25 inches in circumference.

However, it’s perfect for my girls for the back yard and four girls can use it comfortably at the same time.  (The girls do not have swim suits yet so please forgive the fully clothed dolls in a waterless swimming pool.) (grin) 

As you can see in the above pictures, Wiccah and Tierra can sit comfortably submerged to the waist in “water” while their backs rest against the sides.  In the second picture, Wiccah is on her knees leaning against the side.

For a portable backyard prop, this little pool is perfect.
