The first thing I got (a couple of months ago), was this Grand Mansion from 2001. It was mint in box, the only things it is missing are the hanging basket in the conservatory part and the shoe-cleaner. Considering the extremely low price I paid for it, I was thrilled.

This is my next project to wallpaper / decorate / furnish so I imagine you'll be seeing it again soon :)
Next, I brought the Vintage Nursery from 1989. Again, mint in box. Not even a single accessory missing, even down to the tiny little bowls and bottles.
I absolutely love the little curtains in this, for me they make the whole building! Although, they are quite yellowed with age, so I am considering unpicking them off the rails, giving them a wash and then sewing them back on.
Finally, the Vintage School from 1988, mint in box, and as far as I can work out, with all the furniture and accessories.
It is actually so tiny and adorable! I love the way it looks like an old church.
The school even has a little door that opens to the bell tower (the bell can actually be rung by pulling the handle!).
I only showed the buildings with the original accessories/furniture but I'm sure you will see them in stories when I have put some other things in them too :)
Wow, I love the Grand Mansion! It looks amazing and so huge! Who will live in there? :) Nursery and school are also two wonderful new attachements. Congratulations to your new items :)
ReplyDeleteHehe thank you! :) I am not quite sure who is going to live there yet, but I think they will be a very lucky family :D
DeleteI think so too :D
DeleteWow Lily some great purchases! Love the school. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! The school is definitely a new favourite of mine :)
DeleteCongratulations! It's so lucky for you to find those treasure in mint condition with reasonable prices. I love the school - can be used as a church as well. Looking forward to see your decorations.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Moonrabbit! The price I got the Mansion for was unbelievably low :D I'm actually beginning to wallpaper the Mansion now, so hopefully it shouldn't be too long before you see it decorated :)
DeleteGreat finds! I look forward to seeing these buildings and accessories in your future stories. xo Jennifer
