Testcard F - Picture insert
This thing has always creeped me out..
It's the way the girl has just stopped dead still, like a statue...mid game, so she can stare straight at you with a weird expression on her face...(there's something very evil about that expression)
Then there's the fact she's not afraid of that clown thing, which creeps the hell out of me & must be alive 'cos she's playing noughts and crosses with it.
I always thought it was a odd looking balloon but now I can see it's legs I'm even more freaked out... after all, if it's got legs that means it can chase after you!
Anyhoo, They say a problem shared is a problem halved so I've put these 2 pic's up here in the hope someone else will share at least half the nightmares this thing has always given me.
purple_ebren Pro User says: You know, I never realised it was only a clown. I always thought the body was another toy ~ shows doesn't it what you gloss over.
Mind you, we only had a B&W for all my childhood, so alot of the details were prolly lost on me anyways . . .

American Kitchen cookie Rement
It's all just so cute... I have to have it!
I mentioned this set in one of my previous posts, just look at those cookies, they'd look just as cute in a dolls hand or in a storage jar in the kitchen.
The baking tray is just as adorable and I love the kitschness of the American themed coffeepot and mug set too!
mmmm...Dinosaur jellys *grin*
This set is made by Rement and is called "Summer Days"
As you can see from the pic' that popcorn looks so real, and the dinosaur jelly sweets are just the cutest, they move about inside the packet (which I've left unopened).
The Books, although tied together with a "Book Strap" can be removed and have pages which turn. he long thing at the front is a "strip of stickers" which I'm sure my little ones will have fun putting all over the furniture soon!
The Basket Ball, well in fact all of the items are 1:16th scale so they are just the right size for Hujoo and 12 inch Blythe dolls to play with.
American kitchen bubblegum machine!
More Cupcakes woot!!
Ratty Pillow
From Ikea so I'm told...probably all sold out now I discovered them!
Still never mind I'll just have to make myself one after all I have the pattern (photo) - how hard can it be?!
The only thing I think I'll change is the eyes, as this one looks like it may in fact be dead :( which I suspect is why it's also flat... come to think of it, who would want a squashed flat dead rat pillow?
That's a bit disturbing, especially as the answer is Me!!
Queen of Hearts Mini Pullip Doll
What's not to love about this little girl?
Alice in Wonderland & Through the Looking Glass are 2 of my Favourite books from when I was small, that I have to keep revisiting no matter how old I get!
And I love Pullip Dolls, combine the two and it's a definite winner! *Grin*
I love the detailing on her dress, it is so similar to the original book illustrations by John Tenniel, I think actually that's what's attracted me to her most!
More Mushroom Rement
image from Ebay |
Can't have enough mushrooms lol especially when they look this cool!
I have the cookies though, but not the jar, the scales, the shelves and some plates and pots, I bought them from a seller on Ebay who'd obviously had quite a few sets of this range and didn't want them all? Still I didn't complain and I got them pretty cheap too!
Just look at those little slippers too, I love love love that little Bathroom set it's adorable in the extreme!
Mushroom Rement ... wooot!!

Demonic Angel 1975 Pro User says: Yes me too...only they're so rare... :( Still a girl can dream a?
Oooh I have an Idea... *** Actually, I've been thinking, I could possibly make one, if I can get hold of another Susie Sad Eyes... No way am I using my little girl!
Perhaps I'll find one that has issues and then I wouldn't feel too idiotic if it doesn't turn out right!
