Ebay spoils

Friday, July 9th, 2004

Erm, been buying a lot of junk…don’t even remember most of what I bought. @_@;; That’s it…no more pink furniture for me. Michael’s doesn’t carry Krylon Fusion paint in black or dark brown. The only decent colours are white or light tan. Awww…want black! >.<

The cards were from Walmart. It’s a full deck and perfect for 1/6th! Thank goodness for the growing popularity of scrapbooking. XD

Oh, gotta run~~

Jackpot!

This past weekend we made an excursion to Daiso over in Richmond. Daiso is a Japanese 100 yen store chain and this location marks the company’s first foray into the Canadian market. With the exception of some food products, every item in the store costs $2 (or “toonie” as our two dollar coin is dubbed). Undeniably the best part was the discovery of doll accessories and items that could be potentially utilized for the little people!

I bought a wooden box (the type used for displaying miniatures) with the intention of turning it into a bookcase. Also bought some wooden mini tables for which I need chairs badly! Will probably make those. Spotted some mini clear plastic containers with opening drawers that could work for a bedside table. And much to my delirious delight, there were mini tea sets in a number of designs. I’ve been scouring ebay since last year looking for an afforadable ceramic set that would be suitable for 1/6th use. Finally I found some locally and inexpensive to boot! Wheeee!! I can foresee more of my pennies, er toonies, going to Daiso’s coffers in the future. >XD

Oh yes…they also had this brand of false lashes in a few styles. Those look fun. Too bad I dun have any larger dolls to try them on. :B

Up and up…

Here are some of the gang enjoying the new communal couch. Saya’s new My Scene tops and hat are some of the gifts Ari sent to me. Thanks so much sis!! ^____^ It’s ok about the duplicate outfit. It’s one of my faves and now there’s an excuse to make twins. Hehe!

I’ve been thinking about repainting Andie (the redhead). The perfectionist in me insists on fixing those uneven eyes. Yet I fear not being able to reproduce that personality that she seems to have in her current faceup.

Erg, I didn’t find out till now but Canada Post increased most, if not all, postal rates effective yesterday. Then ebay fees are going up next month…what else is next?
