Adorable Vintage Finds!

 I have been having a decent string of adorable finds this month... Here's what came in!

I found this adorable Elka Toys plush sleeping fawn. He was just too cute for words. He will live with me for now. Definitely 1960s or earlier. He just needed a good fluffing up and Ta Da!

I also found this adorable Gund sheep lamb. He was very dirty and his music box damaged. I was able to clean him up and replace his music box as well. He turned out a lot better! Yay! He is already listed in my shop!

My ultimate find this month was this Herman Pecker doll in red pantsuit with her original tag. Her name is "Maria". She is just gorgeous and when I listed her in my shop she was snatched up fast! I find these dolls from time to time, but one with her original tag, rare!!

Mostly Gund's this month, another Gund bendable kitty named, "Twisty Cat". Just as shown in this Christmas 1951 Catalog by Sears. He just needed a wipe down as well and I added a pink satin bow. He is also listed in my Etsy shop!

I was commissioned to find this adorable Blue sky Osyalle doll by Ayumi Uyama. It's nice to know we can still find some of these items in Japan. Another great find was these made in Japan, Disney tin pink kitchen set. Fridge, washer, and sink. I love the graphics on it too! I will keep them for now.

This sweet Roly poly dog chime toy by Knickerbocker to be added to my Chime toy collection. Nice to see other versions besides the bunny girls. I also won a lot with Macoto T. art work. This lovely colored pencil set is already listed in my shop. But I will keep the mini memo books. Also a secret pass case book with stamper. In complete condition too!

Lastly, this adorable repainted up cycled rubber face kitty. He had scary green eyes and looks a lot like a Rushton, but of course he isn't. A clone? Perhaps. He's already listed in my shop for adoption.

It has been a lovely start of September. Happy Hunting!

Time to Prepare!

 

I got the call today for my actual surgery date. Almost 2 months since my biopsy.  I've been keeping busy, and just trying not to think about what is going to happen and all that the surgery entails. LOL Sometimes my mind likes it that way, so I am not stressing or overthinking. Maybe a good thing. I've been trying to sell some items to help with the upcoming hospital bill. Mostly rare cherished items I have sold, and it will help a lot. At the same time, I've also found some items in hopes of reselling, to make a little as well.

I'm not going into too much detail as to date, time, place etc. for my surgery. But, I will do a post-op update, if I am able to, later on. So, before stuff gets hectic here. Let me share some of the finds I recently got in the mail...

 

Found this adorable Valentine's Furry Poodle, with sadly no markings. But, I think she may be Herman Pecker? Cleaned her up and I will add her to my shop after the surgery. She has, "Be My Valentine" foil heart on front and a cute felt heart on her tail. furry ears and body. Quite unique and fun! Next, via Instagram, I was able to snag a few goodies!! This lovely, Wood House box for recipes, and includes recipe cards inside too! My friend VintageUnicorn also added this adorable bottle brush tree!!

This lovely minty Striped Gund plush bunny, and Frosty Boy pillow, both finds from vintagethisorthat! I just simply fell in love with. She also had another Gund bunny up for grabs, but this one just stole my heart! Ears have wire in them for posing, and he also has the same buttons on him pants like my Rushton bear with tiny bear! "Frosty Boy" has been an iso for sometime. In Japan, he is called, "Nikkun" for Nissei Ice Cream Co., and sadly very expensive for their vtg pillows. So, to find him stateside, was nice and for a decent price too! Yay me!!

I took my little mamekobo bunny outside for some outdoor pics. Now, to just focus on this surgery. I truly appreciate all the prayers and kindness. I will be back to let you all know, how it went. I will close my Etsy shop for the duration of the surgery and healing process. Thank you for your kind understanding.

Stay safe and well!
