Dacey’s Mansion Makeover: Bathroom
Dacey’s Bathroom (Before) Hailey here with another great redesign at the Bryn Mansion. Today we tackled the bathroom. The old bathroom was really outdated. Not only were the colors completely unappealing (the bathtub made my eyes hurt), but there was a total lack of style to the room. I mean those counters? Really? So Elwin and I worked our magic and this is what we came up with: Dacey’s Bathroom (After) Ah! It’s beautiful! I love the gold and white – and the punch of turquoise works just perfectly. We added the stylish mirror arrangement and fluffy white carpet as accessories. The shower is oversized and extremely fancy, and the bathtub is much easier on the eyes. Tell us what you think of this redesign, friends!
Alex’s Fight
Wow, you guys. Today is one for the record books. I, Alex Tiger, actually had a fight with someone. Normally I don’t like arguing, so I’ll just go along with what someone else wants. But after my insane shopping trip with April yesterday? I had to stand my ground when she wanted to return to the mall AGAIN today. No. I just could not do it. So I told her that if she wanted to hang out, we’d have to do something I wanted to do. Like visit the museum or walk through the Magic Forest or SOMETHING. I was even up for going shopping, if it meant we could go to the Curio Shop. And you know what April said? She said I was being selfish. ME! She said that I live in Kinzville and could go anywhere at any time, so I should do what she wanted when she was visiting.I tried explaining that friendship means doing what BOTH parties want, not just one. April wouldn’t hear anything of it, though. She whipped out her phone and started texting someone. I asked her what she was writing and who she was writing to. She said she was … Read more
Sparky is Thankful
So you guys know how I’ve been kind of dreading Thanksgiving? Well, my friends made me realize how lucky I really am…and that I should stop complaining about the fact that I’m not going on holiday. I get to spend the holiday in Kinzville with my Uncle Arte who has planned a TON of cool stuff for us to do. He’s taking me to the museum, we’re going on a hike, and he’s getting dinner from Le Snout (hooray! No frozen pizza or soggy pie!), and he said there are a few other surprises up his sleeve. Nibbles told me that I should be happy that I’ve got someone to spend Thanksgiving with, and Salley reminded me that not everyone is so lucky. Cowabelle told me about some of the families that she helps at the soup kitchen, and it made me realize that I’m a really lucky kid with lots to be thankful for. So I’m sorry I’ve been complaining. I hope my parents have an awesome vacation, because I know I’ll be having a very happy Thanksgiving.
April’s Arrival
Hey everyone, Alex here with a bit of a problem. Have you ever had a friend who you were REALLY close with change a whole ton? Like, change so much that you don’t really know them anymore? That’s what I realized today: April has changed. April came over to my house this morning and she was totally pumped to spend the day together. I was really glad to see her – until she told me what we were going to do. She said she wanted to hit the mall for some new clothes, makeup, perfume and all sorts of other stuff. I said that I was more interested in going to the park or museum and then maybe having some ice cream, but she said that was baby stuff and she wasn’t really into ice cream anymore. How can you not be into ice cream? Anyway, we went to the mall and I spent the ENTIRE day following her from store to store, watching her try on different outfits. Most of the time, it was like I wasn’t even there –she didn’t say anything to me other than “Carry this bag, would you?” I told her that I … Read more
Dacey’s Mansion Makeover: Recording Studio
Dacey’s Recording Studio (Bef0re) Elwin here with the latest redesign from the Bryn mansion! Today, Hailey and I got to create a totally fun (and very technologically advanced) space for Dacey. We took what used to be the craft room (a very crowded craft room, I might add) and revamped it completely to make a funky recording studio for Dacey’s voiceover and singing work. Dacey’s Recording Studio (After) We added a stylish “Recording” sign, some cool polka-dot wallpaper, flashy lights (that change color!) and an awesome column with a string of white lights. The elevator is an easy way to reach the studio, which just happens to be on the top floor of the house. If you look really closely at the picture, you’ll see that Hailey couldn’t help herself – she just had to try out the recording booth!

Salley’s Good News
Dear Diary, Guess what? Guess what?! I’ve finally got some good news about Thanksgiving! My parents realized that I was having a really hard time making a decision about who to spend the holiday with, so they talked to each other and figured out a compromise. My dad is going to come to Kinzville and take me out to lunch at Le Snout. My mom and I are going to have dinner together (with Stoogles visiting). My parents are happy, and now I get to see them both on Thanksgiving! Hooray! Love, Salley

The Thanksgiving Pageant
It’s me, Cowabelle. Today was our Thanksgiving Pageant at school and I wish I could say that my star turn went off without a hitch but I can’t. Fortunately, thanks to my best friend, Roberta, things could have turned out a lot worse. I think I got so caught up in being the star of the show that I let it go to my head a bit. I know I wasn’t being as considerate of Roberta as I should. I thought she should just grow up and stop complaining about having to be a tree. I mean – not everyone can be the star, right? But maybe I should have focused more on learning my lines than being a star, because today when I was up on stage, I completely forgot my lines and froze! It was horrible – I didn’t know what to do! Luckily I happen to have the best friend ever because suddenly the tree next to me started whispering my lines to me! Roberta was there beside me to save the day! I guess that while she was standing around ‘treeing’, she had nothing better to do than memorize the play. And even though I’ve been … Read more
Sparky’s Unhappy Thanksgiving
You know, normally I LOVE Thanksgiving. It’s usually my mom and dad and Uncle Arte and I at our house, eating lots of delicious foods (especially pumpkin pie) and celebrating together.Since my parents are leaving this year for a vacation (WITHOUT me), I’m really NOT looking forward to Thanksgiving. My Uncle Arte keeps trying to tell me that we’re going to have fun, and that he has all this great stuff planned…but it’s not the same. I bet he doesn’t even know how to make a pie. I invited Stoogles to join us for part of our ‘dinner’ (probably pizza or something). Maybe he’ll make Thanksgiving a little more fun this year.

Stoogles’ Thanksgiving Invitations
Hey Everyone! Stoogles here with some great news. Instead of getting ONE invitation to Thanksgiving dinner, I now have FIVE! Yup, you heard right! Stoogles will be eating well that weekend. First, I’m going to go to Nibbles’ house for Thanksgiving lunch. Her family celebrates earlier in the day. She said they have SEVEN different types of pie! I’m going to try ALL of them! After that, I’m heading over to the Curio Shop for an early dinner with Sparky and his Uncle Arte (Sparky said not to get my hopes up about how good the food will be). After that, it’s over to Salley’s house for dinner with her and her family (Salley is staying in Kinzville now – yay!). We’re all going to head to Cowabelle’s after for dessert (more pie!) and then I’ll end my night at Alex’s house. His friend April will be there as well, so that should be fun. I’ve never really had an official Thanksgiving before – and now I get to do FIVE of them in one day! Is this the best idea ever, or what?
Dacey’s Mansion Makeover: Living Room
Elwin here with our second room redesign at Dacey Bryn’s mansion. When Hailey and I saw the original living room, we weren’t too sure what to think. The room was divided into two parts: a front office, and a rear TV watching-area. The furniture was relatively mis-matched, and the wallpaper was really outdated. Dacey’s Living Room (Before) Cue the new living room! Ms. Bryn told us that she wanted something ‘chic, sophisticated and yet still comfortable.’ Hailey and I put our heads together and came up with this room. Dacey’s Living Room (After) The wallpaper is one of my all-time favorites; nothing says ‘chic’ like dark blue. The couches are plush and comfortable, while still fitting in with the sophisticated look of the room. The gold curtains are simply stunning, and the fireplace keeps the place toasty warm. Ms. Bryn was thrilled with the change, and Hailey and I really liked it as well!
