Latest Finds...

 Whoa January went fast... Here's what I've acquired the last few weeks!

I got myself this awesome Wall Plaque by CarlosofHollywood on Etsy!! Its all wood and is based on the Knickerbocker pouty bear plush. Just love this! Carlos makes other amazing pieces like pins, pillows, even an adorable bear rug. Which by the way I am so tempted to get! LOL His work is unique and I love his playful art of our vintage kitsch collectibles. Just find him here on Etsy! I also received several boxes from Japan. These vintage kitsch figurines have already been added to my Etsy shop! I've sold this set before. Lovely big eyed deer couple too great for your Valentine's display!

This cute bathing beauty is just adorable in her blue hair. She will live with me for a bit. Of course, I am still trying to find some little plates I could put into my GE cabinets. But sadly, this set of Barbie plastic plates don't fit. Ugh. So, I listed them in my shop. I also found through commissioned orders, some past miniatures Charmy chan toys for other collectors, and for a friend in Netherlands, these cute dolls below.

Ken Elephant, released their Nostalgia miniature toy sets, and I got them fast. Sadly, in one box of twelve, there is only one red roly poly and one yellow roly poly dolls. Ugh. Meaning you get all the others at least twice, but not the dolls. Darn. This set costs way too much for just the 2 dolls. Not happy with this purchase. But, the pieces are adorable. Most only want the Rolys. The baby albums are so cute, and they do open up. I can print out and put in tiny polaroids in it too!

My awesome "Rollin' with The Homies" sweatshirt by fuglybarbie!! I love it so much and can't wait to use it a lot! Matches my little Happy Bear!! I was also able to acquire this lovely squirrel plush with pastel colors by Allied Toys Canada. Similar to Rushton's Stinky Skunk. This squirrel plushie is a nice addition to my pastel collection. Yes, I even caved and bought a vintage Valentine's Chocolate Box in pink. Mostly, to be used as a prop. The price wasn't bad either!

Last, I received this lovely Rushton owl to sell, from a friend in Japan. He's been washed, and his wings replaced. I used felt in brown on the areas which was supposed to be painted on brown accents to his feathers. I just didn't like the way it looked, so I opted to cut felt and glue it on instead. He is such a cutie, and I'm having a hard time letting him go now... Haha Oh well...

Hope you all are safe and well!

My new children's book is listed on Etsy!! Meet Henry and Sachiyo as they go on adventures in my Kitsch filled room...

Commissions this week!

 The past two days, I have received mostly commissions in the mail. These are items, that collectors have asked me to locate or buy for them. It makes me happy to know I can help others get and purchase their dream toys. I do have a small fee, but, trust me, I don't make millions from it. I don't advertise this service often. Mostly, because it can be time consuming and a lot of work, if you are a one person operation. But, it still gives me pleasure, in knowing that a fellow collector is able to get, what they have only dreamed about finding...

A fellow collector had me purchase these cuties called, "Calico Critters", and another set below. Lots of accessories too. I didn't open it up, and just took these initial photos to let the collector know, they arrived safely to me. Just adorable too! The train set is for a collector in the UK. I've helped him with other sets before. So, it was nice that he was able to get new/old item too.

The two Saila doll and friend above for another collector. She had been wanting a Saila since July. Sadly, we tried for an auction, but was outbidded. However, I was able to find her these two gals, from one of my favorite online shops. They are on their way to Singapore... I also bought this Saila mint in box car for my daughter. I had seen this car in Saila's booklet, but to find the car mint in box, Yesss!! The stickers weren't put on the car yet!! Whoa! And it plays music, I didn't know that it did! Haha.

Next, I won this cute Oike NOS plush squirrel. He comes with his original box and I already have him listed in my Etsy shop. In lovely minty condition too. He comes with his original tag, "Animal Pet" by Oike co. Japan. 1960s, I believe. I didn't take photos of his box. But, what an awesome find for sure. The same seller had a few other vintage NOS plushies listed!

Last, I found another NOS vintage Ninohira tiny cat brooch, while doing my usual searches. I was surprised to find it unopened. Of course I opened it and he is just so minty. I decided to keep the minty one with brown hair, and took the yellow cat with brown hair and gave her pink hair instead. What do you think? I may need to trim it a bit more...

Try to stay safe and well my friends!
