Birthday and Amazing Finds!!

 Another year older, LOL! It was a great celebration with my little family and some truly awesome finds along the way...

My sweet girl who knows me so well, got me a Parisco Ube Cheesecake for my birthday. Thank you Tabytha! We celebrated at my fave restaurant and had a nice simple lunch. It was a good time for sure. The past few weeks, I was able to find and get some amazing and rare Rushton plushies. Definitely a great lead up to my birthday too! Below, is a large standing bunny, called, "Beggin' Bunny" made by Rushton for Easter. She wears her original skirt and bow. I added the bonnet to her. I was surprised no one had claimed her, and the seller was so kind and shipped her asap to me.

Same site, I found this creepy cute Rushton Clown. Not seen before and not in any of my catalogs, sadly. He was missing his pants, and his hat was all tattered and torn, so I replaced them. Now, he is amazing again and has already been adopted. Quite the unique find I must say for sure! I honestly was surprised, that neither of these two were adopted right away, before I found them...

I also scored this Valentine's Bo Peep. She was missing her bonnet and I found this antique one that fits her perfectly. She is the sweetest gal and still has her "Love Me" tag. I already listed her in my shop just in time for Valentine's Day!! Below, I got this adorable Mattel Music Book wind up. It didn't work, so I opened it up and fixed it. I love the graphics, the artist reminds me of the same person who did Liddle Kiddles box art. The bun beside the book is another adorable find, similar to a lamb I found a few years back. She was a welcome find too! Love those lashes!

Next, this adorable Ukulele by Takara with Pichipichi and Wataru on it. Lovely addition to any Licca first gen collection. Already in my shop. I caved and got myself these adorable diecast volkswagon cars from Alvina of Joujoukawaii shop. She even added a few gifts for my bday!! I love them, thank you A!!

A few rattle friends above and below arrived as well. The blue one I found from Japan. There is just something adorable about rattle dolls. I simply love them. Then, I found a lot of memos with anime girls on them. This one is a double sided memo. Definitely a keeper. I just love the graphics of all the galaxy eyed gals on them!

These flocked cuties I made myself! Well I upcycled them. They are vintage flocked fruit and I added some cute googly eyes to make them anthropomorphic. I listed them in my shop 2 weeks ago and sold 4 and made more. I even added other fruits, like these smaller ones. The pear is much heavier in weight so she is not an ornament, but great for display purposes too! It was fun to put them together and set them up. All listed in my shop!!

I hope you all have a wonderful rest of your week. Valentine's Day tomorrow, so enjoy your loved ones and happy thrifting!

My Birthday Month Yay!!

 February is already here... Time sure flies doesn't it?! Here are some amazing things I found the past month up until today...

Finally found myself this adorable tin tray and 2 plates with cute kitty faced children. I've been wanting to get myself a complete set of these adorable tin toys by Ohio Art. But they can be quite pricey. Ugh. Still a lovely set and to at least have these, Yay! I also found another rare Unicorn planter! This time with its original box. "Unicorns Fancy***Land" by M. Kazami. This one just had a bit of paint loss on the planter itself and sold within minutes in my shop. Yay!

I also got some of these gatcha Mascot pails with mini fake candy key chains inside. I love the cute pails more so, and the candy is adorable too! I kept a few and added a few into my shop. Next, I received a lot which included this adorable Rushton pink bunny baby. I worked on restoring him and now he is ready to be adopted. He is actually the baby bun that goes with the Mama bunny. I have yet to see a pink Mama bun though. Haha! Still he's adorable with his tuft of curly hair. Probably made around the 70s with the kind of fur he has.

I also found a Rushton Fox! He is in mint condition and still has his Valentine heart with the words, "Don't Be Foxy". His original collar and ribbon. Even his hat! Just truly too cute. I hope to add him to my shop soon! Next, this adorable large posedoll jointed at the legs. I just needed to find her some socks and I made her shoes! She is a great addition to any doll collection for sure!

I also received a box from Japan, and won this lovely Masako W. handkerchief, a Noriko memo notebook and this adorable Oike Co. pink kitty still with original tag. She reminded me of a Jerry Elsner plush. Just look at that face! Haha! She's already in my shop up for adoption. Also this adorable Poppo Chan tan dolly with green hair. She is mint in package and already added to my shop as well!

Lastly, this adorable Miss Pots Dreamland Squeaky! I recently won via IG auction. I've restored her and now she is ready to be loved. I will list her in my shop soon! She had bites on her lid and edge of the lid, lots of fading through out and needed a good cleaning. In the end, she turned out lovely and still squeaks too! Around the same time, I found one via auction site in just as great condition as the one I own. But she has already since been adopted by a fellow friend and collector.

All three teapots above, one on its way to its new owner. The one on the far right is mine. and the center one will be available in my shop soon! Please note, the center one was taken prior to me restoring her. So it is a before photo. Haha!

I hope you all have a great February! Happy Hunting!
