Plushies Galore!

Hi,everyone! So,I've been thinking of different ways I could show my plush toy collections on the internet,and I think I've found an answer! I'm (hopefully) going to make different collection posts on here,giving a brief description of the plush in question,all in a certain theme for said post. For example,I rather enjoy the cartoon Adventure Time. I could title the post as Adventure Time Plush Collection,and feature all of the plushies I have for that show,giving photos,descriptions and links to where you can get them (if available)! Simple enough,right? Then,why did it take me so long to decide upon this idea?! Eh,it happens sometimes,considering I've been busy with spring cleaning and trying to thin out my collections. Oh,and I did end up finding a blue canning jar for my mom on Mother's Day! Just in time (on the Saturday before Mother's Day) my dad and I found a little jam or jelly canning jar for $4.00 at a reuse center! I was rather happy,and so was my mom! In fact,she wouldn't have been gifted the jar if my dad hadn't found it first. Anywho,I guess I had better get going! I have a new pile of books,magazines and vhs tapes in the living room calling my name! Oh,and a bowl of cotton candy ice cream! =) Bye!!

News? Mother's Day Gift?!

Hello,everyone! I decided to do a quick post today,just to tell about some things that have been going on around here. Well,my dad and I (my mom as well),have been thinking of doing a little bit of collection purging. He suggested a yard sale,and my mom and I have an Etsy shop in the making,so that could be an option,too. We also have a friend at a local antique shop that we sold things to before. So,I'm just now trying to decide which method would be best for all! I guess we'll see where that goes! -_- I've also been trying to figure out what to make for my mom on Mother's Day (Sunday!!!!). I went shopping at an antique center and a flea market this past weekend with my dad,searching for a blue canning jar for my mom. She used to collect vintage canning jars for awhile,but hasn't bought one recently. Well,I thought for Mother's Day,I would change that,but lo and behold,they were all too pricey,or she already had them! 0_0 What am I supposed to do if they're too pricey!! *SIGH* Oh,well. I guess I'll figure out something! See you!

A Vintage Teddy Bear

Hello Everyone! So,tonight I thought I would write a post about a vintage teddy bear. Well,I've been collecting plush bears for a few years now,and I've amassed quite the collection! This certain teddy bear though,has a special place in this household!


This is my Mom's old teddy bear,that went by the name Pooh,named after the famous teddy bear,Winnie the Pooh. My mom has known this bear since the 1960's,and was shared throughout the household (she has two sisters and one brother). He must have went down a few rough roads,considering my mom and one of her sisters had to replace his paw pads! They were once tan,but are now light pink. My mom and I are confused as to how old he might be,though. We're pretty sure he was made before the 1960's,and we think he might be from the 1940's. My mom says he may have been given to her family from another family at the time,so that would mean he could be an older teddy bear. Anyway,I lent a hand at fixing him up,by sewing up his back and one of his ears. He is a very cute,handsome teddy bear,and he is welcome in with the other plushies in the house!  =) Oh,and here is a photo I took of the moon while I was taking these photos.


Bye!
