Weitere Käufe / More purchases

Ich war sehr brav auf der Auktion, ich brachte nur Hans mit, ein paar Geschenke für kommende Geburtstage der Verwandtschaft - und ein kleines bisschen Zubehör für die Sashas. Wenn sie schon kein Geschwister bekamen, und auch nicht, wie ich gehofft hatte, einen neuen Hund - die wurden mir einfach zu teuer.

I was very good at the auction, I brought home only Hans, some presents for birthdays to come (my sister's and my brother in law's) - and a few gadgets for the Sashas to make up for not finding another sibling. I also had hoped to buy them another Steiff dog, but they were too expensive for me.

Diesen herrlichen Schrank konnte ich doch nicht dort lassen? Ich brauche mehr Kleiderbügel, dann kommen die langärmligen Kleider dort hinein. Und ein prima Fotohintergrund ist er auch.

No one could expect me to leave this marvellous wardrobe behind. I'll have to find some more hangers to put all the long sleeved Sasha dresses inside. It also makes a first class photo background.

Oben drauf ist sogar genug Platz für Harriet und Annie. Wieder etwas weniger Gedränge auf dem Regal!

On top, there even is enough room for Harriet and Annie (and little Tessie). Again, a little less squeezing on my shelves!


Dann fand ich etwas Hausrat für die Küche. Das eine Teil braucht eine kleine Reparatur, bevor ich es aufhänge, und ich überlege noch ob ich den Hintergrund tapezieren sollte.

I also found some kitchen stuff. The hanger needs a little repair. I'm not certain if I should wallpaper the white backdrop first?

Und die Sashas können jetzt Kaffee trinken! Wenigstens einige von ihnen... das Service ist alt, war im Originalkarton, und es fehlt nur eine Untertasse. Wie im richtigen Leben!

And a coffee set for the Sashas! Well, for a few of them.. the set is vintage, it still was in its original box, and there's only one saucer missing. As in a real life household...

  1. That wardrobe was an incredible find! Perfect size and the floral decoration is so pretty. I love the coffee set too. I think you need to go to more of these auctions!

    1. Well I'm there twice a year, since it's only an hour and a quarter to drive (without traffic...) The problem with the coffee set is, it came with a whole box of children's china, most of it too large for Sasha and not complete, so it will be difficult to sell the surplus on Ebay - and throw it out - I'm hesitating to do that - and keep it - WHERE???
      The upside is, the wardrobe was filled with doll shoes. None Sasha sized, but I think they will sell on Ebay quite easily and maybe even pay for the wardrobe, which wasn't too expensive.

  2. What a wonderful stash you came home with ! The wardrobe is perfect for the Sasha's and very pretty decoration to the front. Love also all the little kitchen items and china you found.
    It's so nice when you can get some things in the right size!

    1. Yes, and it's so exciting to hunt for the right size. Back when I used to collect items in 1:12, it was much more difficult to find something vintage that fit. Now for the Sashas, I can get all the lovely larger pieces!

  4. What wonderful purchases! That wardrobe is superb! I love the little kitchen utensils and your little Sasha kitchen. I was in Lidl the other day and there were little herb/plant pots each with a little rake and hoe and they would have been just the right for Ezri. I should have got one. Hopefully when we go shopping next time they might still have some x

    1. Wow Ezri certainly would love her own garden tools, so she could help you gardening! We also have a Lidl nearby, but sadly they don't have little pots.

    1. Yes I could take millions of photos in the kitchen, with all the new decoration I got. And of course the Sashas (and Gregors) can help cooking and baking!

  6. You really did have some great finds at the auction! All such useful stuff too. I would love to go to a doll auction, but dread to think what I'd come home with!!!
