Lock Keepers Cottage Review



You already know who my favourite family are, but it's time to let you know what my favourite building is. My favourite building is this:


I ordered it a few weeks ago but they took a while to arrive. Inside the box was the sticker sheet and instructions in very good condition!



The cottage came with some great accessories:


Inside, quite a few of the stickers are damaged, but I don't really care.


This is now where Captain Horatio Seadog lives.


But he doesn't live their alone:


Polly the Parrot lives with him! The next picture I love sooooooooo much, I am now using it as my profile picture instead of the Madeleine Merryweather pic!


I have also spelled out "Seadog" using the flags!!


I absolutely ADORE this set even though Captain Seadog isn't actually included! Polly is very collect able and is SUPER CUTE!!!

Nettlefield Family Profile


Father Ramsey

Ramsey Nettlefield brings in home baking to sell at the Country Market Tea Rooms. He stands at the doorway and welcomes everybody, which is a good way to show off his beard, which is very proud of!




Mother Caprina

Caprina Nettlefield works at the prescription counter at the Country Market. She grows herbs in the back garden, and then adds them to her husband's cakes to give them a fresh taste.




William, Nanette and Norris Nettlefield*

This terrible trio are always under your feet. Once they get to know you, they follow you everywhere!
One time they ruined their birthday surprise by following their dad into their parents room where they saw their mum wrapping it!!   





*Norris Nettlefield is a made up character, I just ended up with a couple of extra babies;)

Bluebell Cottage review




Bluebell Cottage has always been special to me. And not entirely in a good way. It started in Christmas 2013...  

I was shopping in my local Tesco ( type of supermarket ) and I noticed they had Sylvanians. At the time, I didn't have the Blackcurrant Café or Bluebell Cottage. I thought I would get one of them, but I didn't know which one to get. I eventually chose the Blackcurrant Café because it came with furniture unlike Bluebell Cottage. To make the two sets better value Tesco had added a figure in the box. The figure for the B Café was Teri Chocolate. The figure for B Cottage was a nameless brown mouse sister and desk and chair.

 A year later I realised that had made terrible choice. The brown mouse sister was a fairly uncommon EasyBuy figure. I had been kicking myself ever since. Until now...


When I opened the box I saw this leaflet inside:

 
So I was VERY lucky when I found it on eBay. 


The mouse sister is adorable!


I have named her Heather Hazelwood. Here is the house in Hazelnut Hollow:








Overall, a lovely looking building, and just a great addition to my collection!
