tiny tin toys

thanks for helping me celebrate neíl´s birthday.  he sends kisses to you all!

i wrote a post a long long time ago about how i love toy food. (i am too lazy to find it again but if you are interested it´s way back...sometime in the fall of 2005.)  i don´t know what it is (although i do adore tiny things) but i just love toy food and toy kitchens.  and one of my latest additions to this obsession is vintage wolverine tiny toys.  they are precious!  want proof?  here are some items currently available on ebay:

this freaking amazing white and red kitchen cabinet:

         

check out all the little goodies it comes with:

             

            

a tiny crosheted doily!

and how about a pink sink and stove?

               

               

or a 1930´s grocery?

    

    

i just made myself speechless.

I want that for my kitchen, well they would have to be bigger. But you are a very bad influence, waving ebay goodies under our (and I guess I can only speak for myself now, really) easily swayed noses.

Hey you cutie pie!

I KNOW, I have been freaking out over the wolverine stoves and such on Ebay lately :) I really need to get one, or several...but where to keep them? This is the eternal question.

I am so wth you on the toy kitchen thing,I've been working on a vintage one for my daughter,but its probably really for me!

Wow my Blythe dolls would look so good in one of those!The pink one is the one I would go for!

when I was little I had a teeny tiny toy oven, not easy bake, but close...it was bright green and I could make brownies with a light bulb and they would come out in a little tray.

I broke the little stove after I put pennies in it (I don;t know why I did this) I blame the loss of that little green oven for why I do not cook or bake anymore...it is just too tragic.

Oh My My My !!!!! Let's just buy them. Send them to my house and when you get back to the states, you can come pick them up, we can drive them back to Denver and it will be great!!! :) Meanwhile, I can play with them all I want.. hee hee.. You know, I am going to go get my dollhouse out of storage tomorrow!!!You have inspired me.

Oh Risa, these are so adorable. I love the top one with the vintage items, it's fabulous! I love minature kitchen food pieces and items too, they are so realistic.

Can I shop at the 1930s style grocery with you? We can buy up fresh produce and licorice straps for our (future) road trip...
