We love the Store Dress up Unit from Guidecraft! *Review & Giveaway!* (Closed)

If you have a little girl in your life, then you know what it’s like to have a little diva in training. Kambry loves, and I say that lightly, loves to dress up. The child changes her clothes more times in a night than I can count. Yes, even during the night she changes her clothes. During the day, when we go on an errand run, she insists on not leaving the house until she dresses up, makes sure her heels are on, pettiskirt puffed out, Barbie top on and her purse in tow. With this said, there’s one thing that stays in our dining room; a dress up center from Guidecraft. Weird area for a dress up center? Not really! We had it in the playroom, but there is more room in our dining area and Kambry stays in this area about 90% of our days at home. Playing dress up, boys and girls, really helps bring out the personality in kids. The more that kids express their personality, the more it helps with their social skills. It really is a great adventure for kids to endure, and for parents to witness.

MG thoughts

We have had the Guidecraft Dress Up Center in our home for a couple of months now. We love it! It was very easy to put together and with all the wear that it has endured with the kids playing dress up, it is holding up just like it was from day one. I feared it would be wobbly at first, or at least after some time of use, but these past months have proved me wrong. The Dress Up Center is very well made, I am very impressed with it! This comes with two thick cloth type drawers that are very sturdy as well.

This was Kambry’s first reaction when she walked in the room and saw the Guidecraft See and Store Dress Up Center.

Here is a video of Kambry’s reaction the day we put the Dress Up Center together; quite cute!

We have so many outfits hung on this center, so many shoes in the drawers, so many accessories, purses and even princess crowns that the Dress Up Center stored in this. I am very amazed with how much this can really hold. Overall – I would give this 10 stars if I had 10 stars available below. It is the best gift idea for anyone that has that little dress up diva in your life!

    I’d love to have this to give to my two granddaughters who are ages 31/2 and 71/2. The love to dress up, and when they have their friends over to play…(sometimes 4 at a time, both boys and girls,) they all enjoy dressing up and putting on shows. My youngest granddaughter is very dramatic and very funny and loves to wear her dress up clothes everywhere…out to eat, to the supermarket, and to her pediatrician’s office!
    This dress up center would be wonderful for keeping all of their items in one place instead of in laundry baskets in their closet. It would teach them that there is a place for everything and they wouldn’t get so frustrated when they couldn’t find a particular item. It’s also really pretty!
