My favorite mini prop is the necklace and bracelet set I made for my granddaughter’s AG doll. I bought the set at Michael’s for her to use to make Christmas gifts for her sisters. I used the extra charms to make the jewelry for her doll.

My favorite mini prop is a beautiful stuffed chair that’s gold chevron patterned. I found it at TJ Maxx like 15 years ago! It’s perfectly sized for 18” dolls and I use it in many photo shoots. I also used to have a tea party scene from AG that I used all the time, but it was stored beside the downstairs fridge. One day the kids left the freezer ajar and it defrosted and ruined the scene. 😢

I don’t have any props so I really couldn’t say what my favorite would be. I see pictures on FaceBook and admire the props that other people use but have never had the inclination to incorporate things like that into my pictures. I did purchase a package of tiny forks to use when I get around to making any aprons, chef hats and mitt potholders but haven’t gotten around to making them yet.

My favorite mini prop is a pumpkin shaped coffee mug; I found it at Hobby Lobby. It’s slightly too big for 18" dolls, but great for my fall gnome lol. I make doll clothes for my nieces, so I don’t even have an 18" doll in my house (…yet).
