I had a good time, but I ate too much and I became too sleepy to post ;-P<br /><br />@Marta - I had some nice gifts and I might have an even nicer one coming. I cross my fingers briefly for luck - yes! I am glad that you liked seeing the furniture.<br /><br />I will definitely stay in touch ;-)<br /><br />@Anderson's All-Purpose - oh, yes do build a doll kitty a new house.<br />I would love to see what you create.<br /><br />@Carrickters - you're correct; the furniture can be as fanciful as Mattel wished.

@Muff - yay! Co...Hi Muff and Barb the Evil Genius!<br /><br />@Muff - yay! Congrats on finding that cat house and part of the vanity. The different styling of these pieces is nice. I've got a few of those My Scene Hotel daybeds somewhere and at least one four poster bed (not Mattel). This set reminds me a little of the 1960s Francie bed. Only it's slightly bigger and yes - better than that one ;-)<br /><br />@Barb - the thing about the cat house that gets me is that it evokes a bird's house - or is it just me? I see the cat peeping out and think, "The cat's in the birdhouse." And then I laugh. (Not that I like to see cats having a go at birds or at mice - ew! - but there is something so odd about juxtaposing these two items.)<br /><br />Wish you both luck in getting additional pieces ;-0D7anahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15497306465109590188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5580986768097342172.post-44336901638170240982014-07-05T19:21:25.577-04:002014-07-05T19:21:25.577-04:00Those pieces are all great, yes, even the cat hous...Those pieces are all great, yes, even the cat house.

Estoy feliz de compartir las fotos con ustedes;-)<br /><br />@jSarie - thanks. Yes, it is modern and seems solid - except for the chair. I love the delicacy of the chair, but my more solid dolls will need more substantial seating.<br /><br />@Christine - yes, if you can find the Fashion Fever furniture, do get it. You probably would have a better chance at a good price by going through another collector. My best wishes, that you get the pieces you desire and at good prices.D7anahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15497306465109590188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5580986768097342172.post-82954846356717927002014-07-05T08:33:01.805-04:002014-07-05T08:33:01.805-04:00Omg I love all those fashion fever accessories!
