Redo: Liv Spa Set

I first saw this set at Target for $29.99.  I really, really wanted it but I'm super cheap and felt that price was too much.  I zipped over to Toys R Us and they had it regularly for $24.99, but on sale for $18.97.  Score!

I'm not the spa type, but I immediately saw its potential for additional uses.  I plucked it apart, as I tend to do with play sets, and viola, it's now a desk/vanity combo for my "Claudia" Wolf doll (big Sis to Clawdeen).

I pulled out the sink and hair dryer, added a clip on lamp, painted the chair black and then placed some desk accessories about.

The accessories are a mix of Liv, Barbie, Monster and homemade stuff.  I added black to the laptop and I think it makes it a bit more realistic than being all one color.

Big Sis Claudia has been rebodied onto a 2012 Fashionista body and her head size reduced to give her an older appearance compared to Clawdeen.  Though not visible here, they both still have their wolf ears.

Clawdeen is rocking out in her original body.  I haven't decided if I will rebody her but I bought an extra Fashionista just in case.

Claudia loves the desk and lets Clawdeen use it when she comes over... sometimes.

Was She Tardy for the Party?

I was at Walmart last night and saw that they had new So In Style dolls.  I started flipping through them looking for Chandra.  There were only three different dolls so I assumed that someone had already taken her.  That is until I flipped the box over.

Hmm.  She's not even noted on the box, just Grace, Kara and Trichelle.  Then I read the blurb.

Say, what?!  Chandra was not invited to Grace's Sweet 16!  Was there drama?  Did someone have beef with someone else?  Inquiring minds want to know.
