Birthday presents

Dear readers,

it was my birthday recently and I got, besides "normal world staff" :D also some lovely Sylvanian items: both shoe shop sets, the Marmalade twins and the Country Tree School.


I'm very happy about those sets, especially about the awesome school - it was my dream to get exactly that school, because it fits to my Forest Nursery :D.

Yesterday I opened all packages and looked at them for a long time, before I started to laminate all the little tubes (from the shoe shops) and books (for the school). 

I love the shoe sets, look at this tiny baby shoes! Aren't they just adorable?



I'm planning to build a shoe shop, that's why my mother bought me both sets (She: Wouldn't it look strange if there would be just one counter?)

The Marmalade twins are two little orphans at the moment. I'm not sure if I should get a whole family for them or if the Petites should adopt them (they love little bears :D).

But now I really want to show you my beloved school. Here are some impressions of the school and how it could be arranged together with the nursery:



 In the tree is another very small classroom.


This board can be turned.


 A little bench....


 With the nursery on top from the backside.





I like the patch between the tree and the school, but I think I prefer the "closed" one.

I'm sure you divined it: I started wallpapering the school. It looked a bit empty on the walls.





What do you think? I like it that way much better. Though I think I must add more details. Maybe some curtains too. Either I buy some more school accessoires or maybe I'll take a look at my clay again :D.

I hope you enjoyed that little post. I'm already writing on the next story and on a funny tutorial. Hope I can upload both posts soon. I just have the weather problem - it's so foggy outside :/.

Many greetings,
yours Kyra

  1. So cute pictures and I love the wallpaper so so much :D I think green and lacy curtains would look lovely over the windows of the school :) I agree, the closed one is better looking. And that bench is so so cute! I also like the shoe shops, especially the striped seating area :D

  4. Happy birthday! Congratulations on getting those wonderful Sylvanian sets. You got both versions of the shoe shop. I bet most of the sylvanian citizens of yours will have shoes on now. Good for them. :) The school building is awesome. I like it a lot! And it’s even better than I thought because it can be attached to the nursery. I can’t wait to see your story about little critters studying and playing in school. You are so efficient that you already done with the wallpapering. It looks fantastic. Always like your taste of the wall paper.

  7. Happy belated birthday! Lately I've been too busy to catch up on blog reading :( I never noticed there were 2 versions of the shoe shop! Those tiny shoes look really cute!

    Can't wait for a photostory using that school too. You could probably clip some drawings to the window grills or hang some diy streamers (I used to make such stuff in preschool). And perhaps a height measuring poster? x3
