"My Father Didn't Tell Me...

 ... How to live. He lived and let me watch him do it." ~ Clarence Buddington Kelland.

It is amazing how time flies and thus today is already June. A special month for many reasons and one of them is for our father's. It's also summer and I must admit it has started out to be a great one... Here are my recent vintage finds...

I was able to find a lot of Barbie by Mattel early trinket boxes. A round one and a rectangle version. I simply love the artwork on them. You can see the art is similar to some of the Barbie doll cases of the late 60s. Simply beautiful and a great vintage piece to decorate your dresser with. Next, I found these adorable Takara Japan Kurukuru Candy Babies. Still with original tags. I have already listed them in my Etsy shop.

I also found this lot of Snowbaby posies in white, red, blue and yellow. Already in the Etsy shop and yellow has sold. They are too cute!! The Holbrook Bear case is another sweet find! I love the Bear Angels and they remind me of my white Chubby Tubby! The suitcase itself is amazing!!

With little to no wear!! I will keep this case for a bit. Below, I also found this adorable pink My Toy plush chick. He is so sweet and perfect with Queenie!! I will keep him for a bit too! The rattle below, I just happened upon and it too is just the sweetest. It is sometimes rare to find rattles with the three heads. But when I do I am often smitten by them!! Haha!

My cutie Laughing pup showcasing my upcycled key necklaces!! I have a limited OOAK key necklaces in my shop here! Each with vintage Rushton cute rubber face plush on them!! I also added lovely satin bows to each. They are a nice addition to any Rushton Collection!

Lastly, these two items. I found another Rushton Bear Hand Puppet. Listed it in my shop and was adopted by the same customer who bought the Lot of two puppets I had. Now, this one will be going to a good home and a growing Rushton hand puppet collection!! Below, I saw a fellow collector and friend on IG selling these amazing vintage wind up lambs, a pink and white version. I received them last week and they are truly so amazing for a vintage item. Both still work and the pink one has sold already.

You can see them moving here on my TikTok, below.

Awesome treasures for sure! Happy treasure hunting guys!!
