Master Industries Plush Kitty!

I recently found a very unique vintage plush cat made by Master Industries, St. Paul Minn., USA. He is a very cute and creepy white cat wearing a gentleman suit in blue and pink pastels. He is a knee hugger and in his feet are rattles when you shake them LOL. So perhaps a gift for a baby or toddler. About 16 inches tall. He is quite adorable.

 He has green glass eyes, and still comes with his original tag, with $4.99 price sticker on it! Next, I was able to snag this cute big eyed pose doll from Milbee Toy Shop on IG. Shoko sent her really fast and she arrived safely to me. A quite unique pose doll too! She has big hair and big eyes with a big bow. A solid wood base, she stands about 7.5 inches tall. She is just too cute! Thank you Shokie!

 Shoko even added a sweet note! I will keep her for now. I'm traveling soon to WA to visit my sister who lives in Olympia, and also my brother. It will be a little trip, but a much needed one as well. I can't wait to spend time with them both. So, my shop will be closed for the time being, but I'll still be posting via IG.

Thank you for stopping by! ~ ggsdolls

My Toy Tiny Terry Clone...

I recently found on Etsy this cute little doll, that was titled, VTG French and Japan Kiddle Style Collectible Mini Doll. When I first saw her, I knew immediately, who she looked like, a popular vintage doll made by My Toy Co. called, "Tiny Terry". She also has a Japan made counter part, called, Chiko Chan or Chika Chan made by Shiba. Chika Chan is the smaller sister made similar to Tiny Terry.

 When this Terry clone arrived, her packaging was crushed, and the box she came with was damaged also. I immediately took her out and undressed her. Her shoes are able to come off, but her undies are molded on. I didn't think her shoes would come off at first, Haha. Her arms and legs are stationary, unlike Tiny Terry or Chiko Chan. Her head can twist. She has a bubble cut style with brunette hair, and her eyes and face just like Tiny Terry and Chiko Chan. Her dress is blue suede with white lace, and snap button closure. I gave her a good wash and shampoo with conditioner. Styled and air-dried, I also added a red bow to her. She is just so cute and only about 4 1/2 inches tall.

 She will live with me for a bit. Especially since Tiny Terry and Chiko chans are expensive to get. Haha! I took out all my Littles and used the cart I got and took this little collection photo. They are all so tiny and cute! I just love them all. I'll be traveling soon, so a few of these tiny cuties will be going with me...

 Peko is playing with the Narem dolls today! This girl is just too cute! Update, I'll be announcing the winners of my giveaway tomorrow or Monday! Be sure to comment below or comment on my instagram page!! Have a wonderful weekend y'all!

Narem Dolls and More...

It's been a hectic week, but as always a blessing to be needed and busy. While doing my usual searches online, I came across a dolly's doll, called, Narem Dolls on Etsy by Narem. It's amazing the creativity that comes from S. Korea by way of artists creating their own dolls! I mean, seriously, they just keep coming out with cute, adorable dolls that we here in the USA have to proxy buy from! Examples, Atamaru, Jjori, Petit Chica, Clara, just to name a few!

So, to see this doll shop on Etsy was a nice change and buy them directly. Yesss! Narem, creates little handmade plush dolls for your doll basically! Tiny mini dolls for your dolls to play with. Mostly, some might collect them because they are small enough to take with you on trips, on the go, etc. Or like me, who just love cute things little things and because they are affordable. Haha!

"Good day. This is Narem doll.

Narem doll is a small and adorable doll with the concept of ‘a doll’s doll’.
The handmade dolls are each designed and produced carefully one by one, by the artist."

Is her concept. I ordered three of her dolls, one kitty, one bunny, and one blonde doll. She also sells doll making kits, stickers, and cross stitch items. 

  I got them all in the mail yesterday, and they are just too cute for words!! In their own little clear boxes, each dolly is unique. I just need to have time to open them up and take them out. Hopefully later today! Ha. Narem even included stickers, how sweet. Check out Narem dolls if you like tiny littles in your life, or just want to spoil your favorite dolly with a gift! Tell Narem, Gigi sent you!

I also, received this cute 1960s Forsum doll loose. She looks a lot like Peko Chan from Meiji! I love her licking face. I've seen this doll before, and this was the first time I was able to snag one on Ebay. Generally, they sell fast. Sadly, this gal needs, shoes, a panty, and a good shampoo. I worked on her the same day, and found a panty she could have, socks, now to find her a pair of black Maryjane shoes...

 Afterwards, I may need to curl her hair, after her wash, it was still a bit unruly to me. LOL. More on her later. I also received this lovely pink flower cart I bought from Jess on IG. I love the flowers on it, but may take it off and redo it or add a different color. The cart will be great to use for scenic shots as props for the dolls... Jess even added a cute gift, lipstick pen and photo of her collection! How sweet! Thanks Jess!!

Finally, yesterday was my nephew's bday, he turned 3 years old. I took him, his mom and cousins for a play date and treats at Snowberry in the Agana Shopping Center. It was actually just happenstance we decided to go there... Haha. My original plan was Yogurtland, but they weren't open yet. So, we ended up at Playport for an hour, then on the way up to Playport on the 2nd floor, we spotted Snowberry and agreed we'd all try. It was pretty good too and price was not too bad, same as getting a Boba tea or Bubble tea. We ordered, Taro, Strawberry snowman, blueberry, and a trio dish with mochi, Taro, and Mint. These desserts are shaved ice, with flavoring, fruit, frosted flakes, tiny mochi, and I believe it was condensed milk as a syrup to place on top. Not bad actually! Mine was the Ube/Taro, it was delish, with tiny bits of coconut, almonds, mochi, and frosted flakes, Yum!

 My nephew, stomping the snowflakes just outside of Snowberry Guam. It was a fun day for him. Okay, back to work. Hope you all are having a great week!

Retro Speakers and Goody Store Haul!!

Friday, Sam and I had so many errands to do uptown. Luckily, we checked the mail box first before heading up. It has also been raining a lot lately too. Here's what I got in the mail and what I found at my local 100yen shop, Goody!!

 First, I found via Ebay, these cute retro mini radio bluetooth speakers! There were 3 colors, pink, blue, and white. I ordered just pink and blue. I know, what am I gonna do with all these bluetooth speakers?! Well, I love their look and they are not expensive to get! Each bluetooth speaker comes with a strap, and usb cable for charging. You can turn them up loud, but just right, is fine for me, because I don't care to turn up the volume too much. They are just too adorable, sadly, not an actual radio, still a lovely retro piece to decorate your room! Here they are next too the Target bluetooth speaker. Yup, they are small, you can hold in your hands too! That's why they offer a strap for it. You can move the antennae up or down, and to turn it on, you just turn the knob on front and its the control for its volume too!

 I was able to find these vintage tin stoves via an online Japan shop and for a lot less then a shop that is on Etsy. Yippee! I've been wanting to get a set since seeing the one on Etsy, but its expensive, and the one's I'm currently selling in my shop, at least has accessories. Anywho, these tin stoves are so cute, similar to my set I posted here. Sadly, no accessories, those are sold separately. The stoves are about 3 inches tall, they are all tin and not like my other tin stoves, no cardboard backing, but tin backing. I bought the last 2 pinks, and 1 blue. I made sure to also get the tin plates which have strawberries, bananas, and tomatoes on them, and these cute mini baby toy rattles, in pink, yellow, and blue. I had to make sure I was getting my monies worth in shipping. Haha!

Above, the tulip tin stove beside the blue tin stove. What do you think? Both are just cute and great for miniature dollies like Liddle Kiddle or Chi-chan size! At Goody's, I found some more tin containers this time in blue, and gift wrapping paper with those cute retro animals similar to the bags I found in this post here!! The wrappers are in blue with bunnies, green with squirrels, red with birds, and orange with mice, just too cute! I also picked up some shredded paper for inside the tins, band aides, and extra cute animal baggies to use for the gifts to my Etsy shop customers that spend more than $50 dollars!
