Horses - Overview for American Girl Doll

I was having some fun with the staple setup. The English Saddle, Riding Pants and Riding Jacket are all sewing patterns available for sale in my store. The Bucket and Barrel are part of my 3D-printable Pioneer Set pattern also available in my store.

       

The free Horse Blanket pattern can be found right here on this blog.

NASA Mars Info Package for American Girl Dolls

I found all of these perfect flyers and leaflets on NASA's webpage (https://spinoff.nasa.gov/resources.html).

I resized some of them for AG size and made a new folder to match what a NASA folder might look like.
You can download a clear folder (use with grey card stock)
or download the grey folder (use with white card stock).
For my free tutorial on how to assemble the folder, go here.

The Information Pack I created from the NASA flyers can be downloaded here.

See all my other Science related items here and get the free sewing pattern for the FlightSuit here with any other pattern purchase.

Dolls for a Cause

For those of you who would like to have the Science or Baking Set and don't have access to a 3D printer, you could have a chance to purchase it. I donated a Science and Baking Set to Dolls for a Cause and their Autism Auction. Some of those items are not yet for sale in my store and are currently one of a kind.
I have an autistic son and feel very connected to this cause so go and check it out.

Science - Petri Dish for American Girl Doll

What you need

• 3g clear lip balm container (found mine on ebay)
• Acrylic water (optional) or clear school glue as growth medium
• Acrylic paint or dye (optional) to color growth medium
• Puff paint (to create the growing bacteria and such)

How to make the Petri Dish

1. Either mix acrylic water (parts A and B) according to manufacturer's instructions or take clear school glue and optionally mix a little bit of yellow or red acrylic paint in it (not much, you just want a hint).
   
2. Pour a small layer into lip balm container. I only used the lid of the container, but you can use the bottom part, if you want to be able to close it later. This will be your "growth medium".
   Let dry/cure.
   
   
   
3. Take your puff paint (you can use multiple colors) and dot and streak across the "growth medium". Let dry.
