Byers" Choice LTD. The Caroler Chronicle Has Arrived!

Hey Gang!

I just got my new Caroler Chronicle catalog in the mail.

I first saw these items in a Hallmark store near me that closed four years
ago! I had seen many of the items on blogs but didn't know that they were
sold locally.  I also didn't know that their museum and factory was
close by!

They are located in Chalfont, PA, which is about 45 minutes from
Northwest Phila.

You can tour the museum and there are windows
where you can view the factory. There is a gift-shop where you can
purchase the items sold in the catalog without paying the shipping.
There is even a restaurant where you can have lunch!  I am hoping
the Philly Dolly Meetup Group can go there after Thanksgiving!

Because the caroler used by Byer's Ltd. are 12 inches, their items are
perfect scale for barbie!

I like this table.

The snowman would be nice for your Holiday dioramas too!

What I really want is this caribou! I think it is very cute.

The Holiday stand are nice but I know I could make one.

I have this Lamp and it is made well!

This year the door, which you may have seen in others diorama is made in green.
It was done in red before.

You may have notice these in may dioramas on line.  They really photo well.

 I have purchase I few items you might have seen in so of my dioramas.

 You might remember this from a few Christmas ago! 

 I haven't use the lamp yet!

I removed the ribbons and wreathes for this and it cam be used for all types of
scenes.

and you can't forget the deer!

I got this one at a discount because of the broken antlers which I was able to repair.

OK, Thanks For Looking!

Flea Market Finds!

Flea Market Items!
I went to a flea market this weekend and I found these
items and I also got a great recipe while there to try. You
will see my finds now and I'll tell you how the recipe came
out later.

First!

This bike
It is all metal and a great size for my dolls on Liv bodies
or my teen dolls.

Fi at the park!
Fiona is getting in some exercise. She knows she
should eat right and exercise to stay youthful!
Then!

This doll?
I think she is Wizards of Waverly Place
Alex Russo/Selena Gomez. I thought she was a HSM
Gabriella doll when I saw her in the toy bin but she is not.
Which is good because I already have one.

Alex and Gabriella
Warning Nude Dolls!

She is the same size as female HMS dolls but the
body is a little different.

The hip joint is different

and the right hand is the same while...


the left hand is different. Finger aren't as curved!

If you are interested in a Gabriella doll, just look on
my dollpage site.

Lastly this!

I am not sure what it was supposed to be
but it looked like a great fireplace to me!

I took out the insert and will make it
a window or maybe a piece of art work.

As a fireplace!
They all
were .50¢. It was a great day for my doll budget!

A Little Something Something For You or Your Dolls

OK, It is the holidays.... and you have a little extra cash for yourself and you want to get you/your dollies something! This place does scenery that is Barbie sized for your dolls for the holiday! Their name is Byers' Choice LTD. They make Barbie size figurines for the holidays. The accessories are great for display for your Barbie or for diorama! I love the fences. There are two styles. One is a picket fence and one is a mock iron fence. There is a doorway, stairs, fireplace for those who are not into Gloria fireplaces, a lamppost, and a riser for carolers. Now these pieces aren't cheap but they are not pink and require that you paint them to make them look real! This are great for dolls who desire a more traditional life style :).You may have seen them used in your favorite diorama websites! You might be able to find them at Hallmark stores but if not go to www.byerschoice.com
