Press the green flag button, then press play to begin! The buttons change the skin tone, eye color, lip gloss and extras. Once its the way you like, press next. Press a hairstyle to put it on, and again to take it off. The hair extras on/off buttons take the hairclips, headbands, ect. off and put it back on, just in case you don't want them in there. The colored buttons change the hair's color. When your ready, press next. Press one of the holiday buttons to see the clothes for it (there are 6 dresses, 3-5 headpeices and 5 pairs of shoes in each section. So 36 dresses, 28 headpeices and 30 pairs of shoes all together.) Once you choose a holiday, use the change dress/shoes/headpeice buttons to change everything, then click on the item to put it on, and again to take it off. When its perfect, press back then next. (I'm sorry I sorta made it so that you can't mix and match holidays. It caused too many problems so I made it so you can't do it.) Now, the photo effects! This is the first time I've included these, so I hope you like them! The red buttons change the background, while the colored buttons add themes (decorations and a banner that says Happy/Merry (Whatever holiday you choose). #7 is a Happy Holidays one in case you can't choose.) And... The hardest question of all... Snow or no snow? You decide! When its perfect, press done to see your finished Holiday Beauty!
