I laughed when you said "my house is an OCC explosion" 🤣 I'm definitely struggling with that as well! All for the glory of God! Thank you so much for this video! Ive also learned it's so important to be super organized when doing packing parties - thank you for giving us a glimpse into your setup! Love the way you made those simple dolls into a treasure for little girls! They are so special! 💕

So many beautiful blessings! My favorites are the dolls your mom fancied up! They are precious! Love the minion pajamas too! Have fun at your packing party!

I got some of the .25 notebooks and 1 of the minion pjs but for $3. It is crazy how much the walmart clearances vary by store.

The baby dolls are so cute! I love the outfits and blankets your mom made for them. Any little girl would love them!

That looks so fun! Such cute toys too 😁💕 it never ceases to amaze me how much stuff you can get over there in a year or even just a few months. It’s incredible to me!

Kelly! This video has been so helpful :) I have finished my packing for this year but would love to do a packing party next year and I had no idea where to start. This is amazing!

OCC explosion is spot on in my house, too! You are very organized. The dolls are simply adorable with their dress and blanket. Thank you for sharing your packing party set-up.

I love the dolls. I too have some leftover ones from last year, along with the baby bathtubs. I will be packing them together in organza bags for some little girls to play with. You have some great ideas. I especially love your organized tracking of items purchased throughout the year. After maybe 12 plus years, I still have not managed a good system for organizing and tracking my purchases. TFS! 😂

I love your little baby dolls with the crochet dresses and hats! Even if I don’t win your random drawing, could you share the patterns for dresses, hats and blankets? They are so cute!
