[agfanforever]

A little WIP of my two favorite girls. I am quite lazy when it comes to finishing my art but I really like this piece and have an idea I hope to execute and have finished by Valentine’s Day!

… but just in case I don’t… take this for now

Please do tell me which books you have collected!

yay! love an excuse to show off my books:) @beautifulwillfulldead also asked about them, so here’s a peek for both of you.

(bonus pic of the mini books i own because i love miniature books so much)

as i mentioned in a previous ask, the majority of my books are thrifted, and the books are still the only ag item that i continue to collect. however, other than the history mysteries, which i have sought out copies of on occasion over the past year, i’m not really actively trying to collect, and only add books if i happen to come across them. (i am tempted to find samantha’s wedding memories and her movie script book though.) i’m also not particularly picky about edition, as you can probably tell, but have thought about getting double copies for the girls who went through illustration changes.

please let me know if there’s any books you want a better look at while i’m here! i can’t do scans or like photograph an entire book, but i’m happy to do more of a peek at any particular one if you send along an ask!

books partially obscured in the photos: kirsten’s theater kit, one play script and the director’s guide from samantha’s theater kit, the director’s guide from molly’s theater kit, the american girls album, samantha’s cooking studio, the silent stranger, and kira down under

books not pictured (not at this location currently for a variety of reasons): the sound of applause, the roar of the falls, growing up with aloha, trouble at fort la pointe, under copp’s hill, watcher in the piney woods, shadows in the glasshouse, riddle of the prairie bride, enemy in the fort, meet josefina and the spanish translation of meet josefina.

She lives in Mount Bedford, New York, with her adoptive father Gardner, her adoptive mother Cornelia, her sisters Jenny and Bridget, and her adopted sister Samantha.

My keepers. I still have a lot, but the collection is certainly less overwhelming. Annika (center front, in the light blue shirt) is the doll I’ve had the longest, and Indi (second row, white shirt, dark complexion) is my newest. Many others have come and gone, but these are the ones that spark the most joy when I see them.

Most of them are historicals, but for this photo I decided to dress everyone in relatively contemporary clothing (1990s-2020s), just to see how they all would look.

Back row: Rebecca Rubin, Francie Whitman, Ivy Ling, Kavi Sharma, Apolline Kincaid, Mari-Luz de San Geronimo

Third row: Claudie Wells, Kirsten Larson, Elizabeth Cole, Paul Park, Blaire Wilson

Second row: Joss Kendrick, Nellie O’Malley, Indira Chandrasekar, Cora Sato

Front row: Sara Jones, Annika Nazarbayev, Florrie Whitman, Ana Rubin

[samantha-and-nellie]

why did samantha go to piney point alone during the summer of 1906?

[stingrayextraordinaire]

hii I just found your blog and maybe went a little too wild in your American girl doll tag… (your moodboards are just so pretty!!) If you’re still doing moodboards for american girl dolls would you mind doing one for Nellie O’Malley from the Samantha books?

Thank you so much, friend!! I'm so glad you enjoy the boards :) I actually have Nellie on my upcoming list, so her board will be coming out very soon! Thank you for requesting!!
