Chocolate Cherry Accessories

Even more holiday fashion and fun! Add a furry headband, a red velour stocking, pretend candy cane, gift box, set of thank-you notes tied with a ribbon, and peppermint lip gloss for girls.

Headband: This is cute. The leopard print can go with a lot of other AG outfits. The lining of the headband isn't fur so it doesn't mess up her hair. It fits perfectly. I do think it's kind-of weird that it's fur - I probably would've liked fabric, but it does make the headband thicker and it stands out more. Grade: A

Stocking: The color combo is red and pink, which is different. I like how the pink criss-crosses over the stocking. However, the scale is way off. This is about one-third the size of the doll stockings that I make. It doesn't work as an actual stocking for me but seems more like a cutesy gift container that comes with fancy holiday candy packages. Grade: D+

Gift Box: Pretty standard for AG. It is shiny and the bow feels like a real gift bow. It does open up which is nice. Grade: B

Thank You Cards: These are a unique touch and pretty detailed for tiny cards. You could write in them. They are a little small scale wise but not as obviously as the stocking. Grade: A-

Lip Gloss: Ugh. Like most AG lip glosses, it doesn't have much of a flavor and feels weird. Works as a big candy or maybe a paperweight for the dolls though. Grade: F

Overall Grade: C- I got this on sale and mainly use the headband. I wouldn't pay full price for it though.

I believe I got this set on sale also. Funny though, I actually liked all of it but the headband!

I think the gift box is adorable. It opens up and has a pretty bow that's still intact. There's not really much you can actually *put* in it though. But it looks cute. So. Such is life.

The thank you cards are cute, but I don't feel they're small. But then cards can vary in size, so, whatever. They have pretty details.

Lip gloss is alright. I didn't hate it but I could have lived without it too.

I think the stocking is just adorable. Maybe a little small, but I feel it makes up for it in cuteness. The candy cane fit in and pokes out really cute.

The headband is cute... if you have the outfit, which I didn't. I didn't really like that it was included and felt it should have just gone with the outfit (I know, it supposed to be the accessories for the outfit, but I just wanted the cute Christmas stuff!). Quality wise it's good, and cute if that's what your dolls like to wear.
