The Real Trouble with The World...

 ..."Too Many People Grow Up." ~ Walt Disney

 Hello August!! Here's what I found along the way...

 I've seen this adorable plush dolly via IG and finally found the creator and where to buy her. Her name is Super Berserk Coco 200 percent. She reminds me of Blythe and a Labubu all rolled up in one!! Created by G Guo Dolls or Fantastic Beasts. Coco is a super sized plush bear or little girl wearing a bear costume. Just too cute. I was able to get one and she arrived super fast!

She came in a green bag with box showcasing Coco or Bonbon who is in pink. She can fit some baby doll clothing. I loved trying on several doll outfits to see what she'd look cute in!! My fave below!!

 Next, I found a lot of three containers which had two Swimmer brand items and one from Daiso. This adorable bear case is great for holding trinkets or other cute things. I've already added it to my shop! Then, lovely poodle canister, great to hold jewelry or perhaps things for the kitchen! Also added to my shop and available!

 

Last of the items in the lot, is this adorable pink jeweled quilted purse case. Made by Daiso, it opens by twisting the heart jewel at the top to unlock the purse. Great for holding makeup or other fun trinkets!! This one I kept for myself! I just love it!

I couldn't resist these adorable Penny's Box Antu plush bag dolls. The ones I got are the little fox and puppy. I love their colors and what's neat is that you can remove or interchange their heads on the bodies and their capes as well. I believe there are doll figures too!

Next, I found this adorable Premier dolly fashion. I was hoping to have my Alice wear this, but sadly, it is too small for her. Darn! Oh well, it will work on other dolls I have. Still a lovely vintage piece for sure!! Lastly, this adorable "Die erste Locke" or 'First Baby Tooth holder'. I just couldn't resist it. I won't use it for a tooth, but instead other things! LOL! Love the little face and freckles!

I hope your August is beginning on a great note! 

Wishing you all "Happy Thrifting"!! Until next time!

Thank you for stopping by! ~ ggsdolls

 Summer is just about over here for us on Guam. School starts early next month. So let the new school year begin!

Here are some finds recently...

vtg wire plate wall mount.

 

I was searching for a way to display my vintage Valentine's Chocolate box. Then it dawned on me I could either make a wall holder for it or buy one? But what was even easier was to find a vintage plate wall mount!! This one was perfect! It's made of a strong wire metal and shaped into hearts at the ends. Of course meant to hold a plate, but instead I used it to hold my box!! It was perfect!! Definitely happy with the way this turned out! Yay!

This is a special Aqua Valentine's Chocolate Box!

 Next, this adorable Animal Rummy card deck, that came unopened. I have a small collection of adorable Whitman card games with adorable animals in each of them!! This is a lovely set! A great addition to my collection too! My faves are the bunny and bear!

Just look at these adorable animals!!

 Below, after a month it finally arrived a 2nd version of the vintage Bandai rare anthropomorphic toaster. This one comes with original toast and winds up too! I listed my other toaster in my shop! If anyone is interested?! I've also added two more vintage festival masks to my mask wall! Now, I have a panda and Lunlun!! I love waking up to seeing my collection around me. Thanks to my husband for allowing me to have a place to display my treasures!! Love you Sam!!

Both toasters side by side!

Festival Masks Collection.

 I found this lovely minty Irice Ado Mizumori Hair Spray cover can recently and sold it. She even came with her original tag!! Truly amazing piece too! 

Original Irice Japan Tag!

Below, I have been on the hunt for a minty Macoto T. child purse for my collection of Macoto items and I finally did! She is minty and hot pink with chain straps. Lovely Macoto T. Artwork of a Victorian maiden, surrounded by flowers. Definitely one of my sought after pieces for my little collection! Yippee!

Macoto Takahashi artwork.

 Another item I have always wanted is this adorable 3D Litho posedoll coin purse. I've seen them through out my searches from time to time, but it has always alluded me. I guess it was my time. I was able to do a direct purchase and now this piece lives with me. It needed a bit of cleaning up, and it came with its original metal maker's tag!! I've never seen it with this tag! It's so cute too! Haha!

Front.

Back.

The next few items, I found in a lot. This adorable Heidi compact, sadly, missing the chain necklace. Still in lovely condition. Mahou no Makochan necklace mirror n comb. I've always wanted one, but they can be very expensive. So to find one in the lot was just amazing and cheap!! Yay me!

Makochan mirror comb.

New Neverland goods!

Sara and I went out for a little window shopping and visited the New Neverland shop and I found these adorable animal rulers and a pink gem bow ring!! I simply fell in love with the ring! The shop owner even let me choose a gift! So I got this Sailormoon emblem popsocket! That was so nice of them! I need to visit the shop again soon! Haha!

Vtg Rattle Toy Pony.

 Above, this adorable pink corduroy Pony rattle toy is vintage and has adorable rattles tied in his mane and tail! I believe he is by Plakie. I've added him to my shop and he just too cute to pass up!! Below, I took my toy grand piano from our old house and brought it up here for some photos. So I displayed him next to the red Showa bear. Reminds me of those vintage postcards with toys. Yesss!!

On IG, I found some cute items to add to my collection from a seller. I couldn't resist this adorable Laundry Pin set with rope and toy telephone. The same seller also had this adorable Stahlwood squeak toy milk bottle still MIP!! I love the colors too! Teehee! Great prices too!

And... Lastly, this Lot of vintage 2nd generation Licca Chan vinyl paper dolls! All came with their own boxes and accessories! Whoa!! I had one in my collection. I will keep a few and sell a few. They are listed in my shop already! Just love them and I believe they went with those adorable miniature furniture pieces also by Lotte Licca! I will have to display them so you can see what I am talking about.

Welp, that's all for now. A lot more then I expected but this post also included items I found late last month! Haha! Which only arrived this month, thanks to Ground Advantage. UGH!!!

Happy Thrifting guys!

Thank you for looking! ~ ggsdolls

    July is here! My goodness the year is half way done! I hope you have a lovely weekend ahead!!

Here's what I found recently...

Macoto artwork on the memo!

 This amazing unused Macoto Takahashi Double Memo! It was up for auction last month and I was able to win it. I love the graphics and art work. Truly an adorable piece to add to my collection! And is amazing condition for its age too!

As you fold out the memo. booklet.

Love the artwork at the center of this one!

On IG a Japan seller had posted these two lovely vintage Baby books and I just had to snag em'! I was able too and they are just too adorable. Both unused books will be listed in my shop soon! One has a lovely roly poly chime doll on it and the other has a doll I have up in my shop as well!! How cool is that?!

Truly adorable Baby Books!!

 

Below, the book beside the doll I have listed in my shop. Both books are unused and have adorable artworks inside as well. Great for anyone with a baby on the way! The doll matches the book so well too!!

Hard to find roly poly chime doll on this book below. Just so sweet and each book even has a page where you would write when your child's first teeth come in, and other little tidbits!! Haha! Too cute!

Next, this lovely Ribon Manga gift below. I saw a post on IG about the Ribon gifts for the month of July and had to get this one... A bag case and cards you could switch out! Lovely anime girlies on each card featured in the manga and then you can hang it on your purse or bag! I love the case!

Just dreamy!!

I caved and got myself another Skullpanda keychain blind box and look who I got?!!! It's Windflower! She is just too cute for words! I love that I can change directions of her eyes too. Her coloring is perfect and in pink!! I wish I could get the white one!! But, that's a secret one, so Oh well! Haha!

Skullpanda cuties!

I decided to take a pic of my Cup of Joe with some precious rattles! It turned out adorable too!! A lovely way to display my little collection of rattles!! 

Morning Cup 'o' Cute!!

Lastly, I finally was able to display my cute Meyercord bunting! I thought this spot would be perfect for it! I also changed out a few things and added others. Definitely makes my little happy space more adorable for me!!

I hope you all have a lovely weekend ahead! Enjoy and Happy Hunting!

 ... "You Create Them." ~ Chris Grosser

 Summer days have been hot to say the least, but they are being enjoyed. Here are some recent finds that make my little space all the more happier!

Gund 1950s Stuffed Animal

I saw this cutie up for sale on the bay and decided I needed it. A vintage Gund white with pink ears, bunny plush! When she arrived, she was just so minty. Can you imagine? She's like over 75 years old!! She was kept clean and safe all these years and at a decent price too! She will live with me for now... 

 A closer look. I love that she has her original bow!

 

Mary R. snow baby plush doll

Next, I found this adorable antique MaWaPhil snow baby dolly!! Her face paint is in lovely bright condition. Needs a bit of TLC, but I will leave that up to her new owner. Love her, she will live with me for a bit!

Ninizee Lamby.

This lovely Ninizee plush lamb! I caved and couldn't resist getting her! I have one other, but this one was just too cute not to get, especially for the colors! Haha! I also got a Popmart Skullpanda Blossom L'impressionnisme version. Love her coloring and face! 

Blossom.

Next, this lot of vintage Swimmer Japan hairclips and cell charm! Lovely dolly art inside. They are an adorable addition to my hair clip collection!! I will make the cell charm into a necklace instead! Just too cute!

I was able to display my Japanese Festival mask collection in my bedroom. I've been collecting the masks since our family has been going annually to the festivals every November. My 2nd festival here in this post. But last November they didn't have one and instead the Japan Club of Guam had a Spring Festival this year. Which I sadly wasn't able to attend as I was stateside. Ugh. So Here are most of my masks displayed. I need to get more hooks to display the last one not shown. Still it turned out nicely and it makes me happy to see them up too! 

I finally was able to get my lovely Alice to sit on the seat of the Bike plant stand! Now, she is giving the boy a ride!! Haha! I love seeing them displayed in my room! Helping to form my happy space!! 

Lastly, my basket of stuffies!! You can see the little MaWaPhil in the basket too! I hope you have a basket of things that you display to make you happy! That's all for now...

Happy Thrifting!
