Amazing things from Taiwan too!

I've been trying to be hush-hush about an amazing shop also on etsy, which is also my competition but in a good way!! This shop also sells amazing vintage anime pencils cases, canteens, etc! I've already purchased two items from her and love them very much!!

Today, I received the second item and even though it may not be made in Japan, But I truly love the artwork on it too!

I was able to snatch this lovely made in Taiwan vintage pencil case. Inside shop owner also added a cute anime girl bookmark! It also came with a cute paperdoll and coloring book. The shop often has amazing items and is the same place I got the Macoto colored pencil tin!

 

I also received very quickly my brunette magnetic dancing toy!

I love the box and I ended up purchasing 2 more one for each of my daughters!! Now, I have a sister to the blonde one!!

A closer shot of the little dancer! I may want to get another set for mint keeping purposes...LOL!

Vintage Music Box...

One of the items in my recent box from Japan is this lovely jewelry box. But sadly, the seller said it was broken and of course all dirty and needs repainting.

The jewelry box before. I took the music box apart to see what was wrong with it and found a short piece of gold chain caught inside the mechanism. When I took it out, the music box began playing for me. I was so thrilled that there was nothing major wrong with it. I put it back in and screwed it in place. Then I looked carefully at the top section and used a paint brush to clean it out and below is the end result!!

It still needs to be repainted...but I might just keep it the way it is. Sadly, it was also missing the dancing ballerina. But I tried out a cute Dancing Mary magnetic toy I had and it worked out fine! I would still like to find a replacement one.

The inside of the jewelry box. The center part, swirls as it plays and the ballerina dances around...

Below is an example of the ballerina that should be with this jewelry box...

My replacement ballerina...LOL! - ggsdolls


PS This is the doll toy I used as a replacement. I got mine some years back at a store call "Sterlings" for only $5.00. Nowadays it costs more-_-; This lovely online shop has more!! Yay!

More goodies arrive from Japan for the shop!

Yup, I was able to get these items in for the shop today!! But because I was uptown most of the day...I ended up putting them up later in the day...

Many items. A Lovely coco pencil case, quite unique with a lock mechanism and dial to unlock. Chieko H. flask or canteen nice and minty, I won a lovely lot of Anime memo pads and scrapbook. Then also a lot of teen mode bags and address books. Another anime girl overlay, and a jewelry box that needs fixing...

So, check out my shop for most of the items above listed!! - ggsdolls

PS the underlay to the right is another vintage manga style I think it is called "V is the Sign."
