My 7 year old daughter received her first American Girl doll for Christmas this past year. She has been thrilled! We have wanted her to keep it nice, so we bought her a carrying case, but it hasn’t done the job. She has wanted her doll out with her, and I found the perfect solution on Pinterest that I wanted to share with you!

You take a shelf and dowel and turn it into a bed and storage for her clothes and accessories! What a GREAT idea. I bought this shelf at Micheal’s (the ones that you finish yourself) and I used a 50% off coupon, so it was only $5. The dowel was just pennies. All other instructions can be found here. I bought the hangers on Amazon, here. I did make a few changes with mine, so feel free to mix it up. My daughter is so happy with it! And I love it because it was cheap, easy and it’s clutter free!
