As promised here's the sneak peek of the treasures I've won on last week's estate auction.

... and last but not the least, I also got this adorable antique looking life size doll with sleep eyes. He's huge, 26" tall. While I was taking photos this morning my daughter asked me a thousand times why she can't play with it, and I kept telling her that it's not a toy, that it's for mommy's business. And she pouts, slumped her body on the couch and said "why do you always sell my favorite toys mommy?!

sigh... I don't know my darling daughter, I've always left alone all your Dora toys, I told her...

  1. Wow! What a haul!
    My grandmother had a clock exactly like that one. I'll keep an eye on your shop to see if / when you list it.

  2. You go, girl!! Nice work on the items and the photos...the attache is my fave. I get the *same* sort of reaction from my soon to be 4 year old...wish we lived closer so they could play with their Dora dolls while we ooh and ahh over each other's latest finds :)
