Angie Girl Flower Kits N More...

I recently received a find online from Yahoo Japan, called, "Angie Girl Flower Kits". I've actually seen these kits from time to time up for auction. But, I almost always end up me losing out on getting them. Usually, because my max bid is too low, oh well. But, this time I won! They arrived safely to me, and you have got to check these out...

 I was able to acquire two kits. One kit, is a Lavender Flower kit, and the other is an Orange Poppy kit. Inside the kits are the pieces to make a vase, styrofoam, stickers, parts to the artificial flower, a cute rubber bunny, and instructions. I showed all the part to make the lavender flower kit, but not the orange poppy. I did however, open and complete the orange poppy kit and you can see that below.

 The kit is very easy to complete even with the instruction all in Japanese. Just so adorable. It was a bit hard getting the puzzle pieces for the vase together. I was worried that the stickers would not stick anymore, but they stayed. Love anime art of Angie Girl on each sticker. The cute bunny has an opening on her bottom to have her sit atop the vase. Her head can twist too! She's just too adorable and small! Great flower decor for your desk or dresser for display, and the orange poppies look so real!!

 Next, I received this vintage Rushton pink and white bear from ebay. The seller was just so kind, she even added a little pillow and blanket for the bear to sleep in while he made his trip all the way to Guam from Florida! When I opened the box, that is the first photo of him you see! He was nicely tucked inside his blanket and pillow. I love the vintage patchwork blanket and the white pillow. Michelle was so kind to give to me as a gift with my purchase. I messaged her to thank her and also left her great feedback. I truly enjoy when a seller, takes the extra effort, and adds little touches to their items to say thank you! The bear was well loved and soft, just as Michelle mentioned in her description. But, I decided to wash him again. Afterwards, I touched up his nose and replaced his ribbon with a blue sheer one. I also had to sew a part of his neck, since there was a hole there. Because he is missing his tag, I checked his chin...

 ...and in very tiny lettering I could make out Rushton, Co. and the number 2... Yup, he is definitely a Rushton. Yay! I was worried, he might be the clone from Mexico. Haha, nope! Sadly, he is thinning in some areas of his palms, and backside. Still he is the sweetest ever and I've been wanting a true Rushton bear, since I have a bear, that I've created. I will have to take photos of those two together and show you... I'll update this post on them later on...

 Last, I made this lovely Furry Panda bear tissue box cover! It was actually quite fun and easy. I didn't have a pattern for the tissue box, so I made my own. I used the same pattern for his face from my Fuzbear pattern and TaDa! He turned out beautifully. I hope to list him in my Etsy shop later today. He'll be great in your bedroom, bathroom or any where. His rubber face is vintage, and only one of 3. First, one I made into a bear plush and he currently lives with a very dear friend/sister. Now, this second one, made into a tissue box cover. I have only one rubber face left... I may keep him in my collection a bit longer. Yes, I made him more with black instead of the white, because I ran out of white fur, but he still looks cute!

Thanks for looking! ~ ggsdolls

UPDATE: Here are my two Rushton bears, one is handmade by me and the other I just got.
