American Girl Doll Party Details:
This is what Beverley shared about the party- “This year for my daughter’s seventh birthday, we chose to do an American Girl Doll themed party. What girl doesn’t love American Girl Dolls?! Plus, my husband & I had just finished building our daughter an American Girl Doll dollhouse, so it was perfect timing.
The Decor
We happily displayed my daughter’s growing collection of American Girl Dolls by dressing them up to match the party’s main color scheme – Red, Pink & White. I utilized other doll items and furniture we already owned and had also found some good pieces at the thrift store (the white hutch piece that I used on the dessert table and the doll bunk bed I freshened up to use as the cupcake stand, etc). One of my favorite party tips is to have my party favors double up as decor. I had ordered American Girl tees (doll size) on clearance around the holidays and then sewed up some matching skirts with coordinating fabric. I had also scored the perfect glittery red doll shoes on clearance and “re-packaged” them to match the theme better.
While my husband & I were busy building the dollhouse, we went ahead and constructed a girl sized “doll box” to use as a photo prop. I was fortunate that my good friend, who does vinyl lettering, added the logo to the box prop and some red favor bags I had gotten on sale.
The Play Room
My daughter’s playroom came in handy during the party. Not only did they have the dollhouse to play with, but I also had set up a “Doll Dress-Up” station and a “Salon Station” for the girls. Surprisingly, the room wasn’t too trashed by the end of the party!
The Food
Besides basic sandwiches, chips and fruit/veggie platters, we had a dessert table (one of my favorite things to set up for a party). On the dessert table, I had cupcakes, a “donut cake” requested by my daughter, candy dipped oreos, gumball favors and candy star lollipops. Oh yeah – I also had found clearance plastic shirt containers and filled them with sixlets for the party. I used my cricut to put the white vinyl stars on them.”

I would love to know where she got the boy doll sitting on the camper/trailer!
All the boy dolls I’ve seen have been girl dolls with the hair chopped off or hidden under hats or beanies or wigs! I’m pretty sure it’s the same with this “boy” doll :)
I love all the details of this party. And the fact that she already owned most of the items. I really want to know where she got the white bookshelf in the doll sewing room. It’s so cute!
Love your doll house! We are making one for our daughter and I cannot find little chandeliers/lamps anywhere. Could you share where you got them?
I wish I knew where the party stylist go those!! Unfortunatly, we didn’t style this and there is not info on contacting the stylist. :-( Have fun planning your daughter’s party!! XOXO!
Check with back to school stuff – they are sold to go in lockers!
Awesome tip! Thanks!

Hi there
Your party is beautiful. I’m planning an American Girl party for my girl and wanting to do a life size box as well. How did you construct it? I am not a crafty person at all :). Wish someone made and sold them :)
Thanks
This isn’t a Kara’s Party Ideas party, so your best bet is to reach out directly to the party stylist. Her name and link are in the first paragraph of the party post. XOXO!
Love all of these ideas! Can you please tell me where you got the plastic shirt/hanger treat boxes?
