The mini colour pencils are made in Japan. They are soo cute.
Spot the difference: Which pair of scissors is vintage?
My Melody Stamp Set & Tiny Clip Board
I have also purchased a vintage 1976 Little Twin Stars near mint doll from a Japanese lady. It will arrive in Dec 2010! So watch this space...I will upload photos of this doll when it arrives!! ^_^
My sister saved her pocket money to get me this when I was little. I remember hanging out at a stationery shop near my old home and telling my sister how badly I wanted to get this set of stationery (it's not the same brand though but similar in size and design). I was so touched when she told me that she saved enough money to get me this set because we had very little pocket money back then. You don't know how much this means to me. It may not be like the exact one I lost but it is still something similar to what I had. Although my sister and I did not get along at times and there were times when we pulled each other's hair and boxed/pinched each other when we fought (yeah we were like any siblings out there), I will never forget this kind gesture and the sacrifices she made for me. Love you very much jie, though I never show it all the time. You are the only sister I have and I am glad to have you as my sister...not because you buy me things but because you really care for me.
