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!
