Christmas Countdown - Henry and Rory & the Advent Calendar!

 

Henry is pleased to announce that the yearly Playmobil Advent Calendar opening is going to be starting tomorrow.

This year they have something quite different!  It is A 'Back to the Future' Advent Calendar which should be a lot of fun.

~A reminder to bookmark or follow the blog for daily openings~

Henry is in his smart red star waistcoat.

Rory, still in shorts! has chosen a green bauble waistcoat.

The excitement is soon to begin!

 

Christmas Countdown - The Gotz Lads

 

Allan and Albert have chosen their waistcoats.

Allan chose a waist coat to go with his pale denim jeans.

Albert wanted something bright and colourful.

 

Christmas Countdown - The Twins

 

Today the Twins have put on their matching waistcoats ready for Christmas

James is certainly looking very smart

As is Connor.

The first of the lads all ready and excited about the Advent Calendar this year.

 

Christmas Countdown - Emily & Sophia

 

Today Emily and Sophia have chosen a Christmas dress each.

Pretty Sophia has chosen one with a toy theme.

Emily is looking good in red.

Two gorgeous girls reading for some seasonal fun!

 

Christmas Countdown - Three Little Girls

 

 

Three more little girls have chosen Christmas dresses.

Mary Ellen has chosen a snowman dress.

Everlee Rose Penguins and Christmas trees

Peggy Sue got a new dress, made today with baubles and reindeer.

The Christmas Countdown has begun.

 

 Well it is exactly a month until Christmas Day so the Sasha Haven family have started dressing for Christmas.  Molly and Summer got down the Christmas dresses box, and rummaged through to choose what they would like to wear.

Summer chose this pretty star dress as it had yellow in it, and yellow is a summer colour, which of course Summer loves.

Molly chose red, which is not unusual for her as she looks so good in it.

The Christmas Countdown has begun.

For Sale: Blonde Sasha Recovered Studio/Course Doll

Lovely Sasha Course Doll for sale.

£500 plus postage.  (May be negotiable)

This was her description when I bought her from Shelly:

1952 AI Re-covered Studio/course Doll . This sweet faced young lady is one of the earliest true Sasha dolls however she was in such a bad way she has been totally restored though her original body and stuffing with newspapers dating her are inside her full recovered body and head . Vintage fabrics have been used and original patterns , this has all been very expertly done by Thu Cuc Faes who has also tried to retain the original eye style of this young lady . She has been given a new wig made of Hemp which she would have also originally worn. Her outfit also made by Thu Cuc suits her perfectly 

I have her sandals, I just couldn't find them when I photographed her!.

These two photos for illustration purposes only to show how I have had her dressed.

Her body is in good clean order.

Her outfit, currently missing her sandals.

Photos taken a couple of years ago.

She is a really lovely Course doll and I will be sad to see her go, but sometimes that is just a way, and it will be nice for someone else to enjoy her like I have done.
