The Country Garden: A Vintage Littlest Pet Shop Blog: April 2014
http://countrygardenlps.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, April 12, 2014. LPS: a collector-built community. One aspect of LPS collecting makes the hobby simultaneously exciting and frustrating: these toys were released before the age of the internet really took hold, back when that familiar (& terrible) dial-up modem sound filled homes, and AOL was the norm. ;). Where upcoming toys are showcased, are big news in collecting communities these days - I had no idea they even existed when I was little! Kids could write letters to Kenner the old-fashioned w...

The Country Garden: A Vintage Littlest Pet Shop Blog: May 2014
http://countrygardenlps.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 7, 2014. Photo of stored FairyWinkles sets from the 80s Toy Ark. When I decided to pack all of my LPS sets into boxes and store them, I tried to be as mindful as possible: I separated each set into a plastic baggie to keep pieces together and stored some sets in my playcases. Still, when I opened up those boxes of LPS sets years later, I was disappointed to see that damage still occurred - rubbery pets, like the Mini Surprise Pets. I'm fortunate to be able to keep my LPS in cabinets now, b...

The Country Garden: A Vintage Littlest Pet Shop Blog: Display dilemmas
http://countrygardenlps.blogspot.com/2014/04/display-dilemmas.html
Wednesday, April 2, 2014. I recently bought another cabinet for my LPS collection, since my sets were feeling awfully cramped. It has been wonderful having some more room for the pets to stretch their legs (so to speak), but it has left me with that strange dilemma of modern life: too many options! And as Voltaire said, perfection can often be the enemy of 'good'. It's funny how even the little things in life - like my LPS sets - can teach volumes about patience. Setting up the new cabinet! I know, it's ...

The Country Garden: A Vintage Littlest Pet Shop Blog: Packages, hooray!!
http://countrygardenlps.blogspot.com/2014/04/packages-hooray.html
Wednesday, April 9, 2014. I looooove getting packages in the mail! Almost as much as I love the items inside the packages, hehe! Today was great, I received a box that I had been anticipating for a long time and it's arrival was a bit unexpected, hooray! I am one lucky LPS collector :) It is missing the comb, which I hope to someday find either on the Kenner forum or on ebay. But for now, I will sit and stare lovingly at the adorable husky puppies and their fabulous igloo habitat. And finally, I got a fe...

The Country Garden: A Vintage Littlest Pet Shop Blog: The Royal Carriage Ponies Saga--Close to Complete!
http://countrygardenlps.blogspot.com/2014/04/the-royal-carriage-ponies-saga-close-to.html
Wednesday, April 2, 2014. The Royal Carriage Ponies Saga- Close to Complete! A few days ago I had written on the Kenner LPS forum about my sad "mint" Royal Carriage Ponies mishap. I don't want to totally rehash the disappointment, other than to say that it was not mint and was missing a bunch of pieces. BUT! Today I received in the mail an eBay find that I immediately snatched up-the pink saddle blanket! So now I have a variant, yay! April 2, 2014 at 6:17 PM. Oh gosh, that is SO exciting! The situation w...

The Country Garden: A Vintage Littlest Pet Shop Blog: New Blog!
http://countrygardenlps.blogspot.com/2014/04/new-blog.html
Tuesday, April 1, 2014. Hooray for the blog! And Sarafina for setting this up! My Grandma bought me quite of few sets later on when I would go visit her, including my beloved 1993 Playset! I took a break from collecting in junior high, and just recently rekindled my passion for these lovely critters (thank you Sarafina! I'm really excited to share my LPS experiences on this blog and will apologize in advance for my terrible grammar :) This will be a fun journey for both of us! February 13, 2016 at 2:08 AM.

Coś o LPS: października 2014
http://carly-lps.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Poniedziałek, 20 października 2014. 11 Coś o G1. Jako, że mam i czas, i chęci, piszę. Było troszkę mi głupio, że znów przerwa była dość długa, ale widzę, że na innych blogach sytuacja jest niewiele lepsza, także już przestaje mi być głupio. :]. W tym miejscu miało być pełno pierdół, ale to nikogo nie interesuje, więc przechodzimy do notatki właściwej! Wiem, że za różowe. Szkoda, bo kocham chihuahua! Mimo, że chyba nie umiem odmieniać tego wyrazu XD). Dziękuję ci, dobry człowieku! Tego to ja nie wiem, ale...
