Summer is here, and so are the garage/yard/boot sales!
My friend Jae scored all of these for me at a quarter a piece. I was so excited to see many of my favorites in the bunch, all of which I do not own yet!
So, without further adieu, let's go:
SPEEDY

To deflock or not to deflock, that is the question.

AJ is my favorite G4 pony, so I'm very excited to finally own her G1 counterpart. Now, if only I had a red ribbon for her...

Thank you everyone! I'm glad they all cleaned up so nicely too. I only got one baity one (Blossom) but her hair is nice, at least.

I never expected these colors to work together, but she really is adorable. Good luck finding her! (I'd sell you mine, but she has eye rubs and isn't perfect condition)

This hair was a NIGHTMARE. Egh. It's still really dry, perhaps I'll rehair her someday.

I always wanted my own Stripes. She's so pretty.

This one was so DIRTY! Her insides seem clean, though, so that's good.

What a handsome boy! He seems clean as a whistle, so I left his head seal intact. Aside from two questionable spots he is perfect.

Oh my gosh! That Lemon Treats especially is amazing! Fantastic work on them :)
-
Wow! Congratulation on the haul, and really nice work on the cleanup, they look really lovely!
-
Those ponies cleaned up so well! Congrats of finding them!
-
What a great deal! Congrats on your new ponies!
-
So pretty. You did a lovely job cleaning them up :)
-
So pretty! :)
-
Wow! Score!! Lemon treats is lovely...did you try a flat iron or the boiling water method to help her frazzed strands? I've had great results using both, and she's so valuable, rehairing would be sad...all of them look like you put so much love into them :heart: fantastic!
-
Awesome finds! Major congrats! :D
-
Wow, you did a great clean-up job! :) Congrats!
-
They look so pretty after cleaning up!! Makes me wish I took before and afters of my garage sale finds. Found out some were completely different colors once they were cleaned aha

Thanks!
I used a flat iron and plastic curlers from Sally's Beauty Supply. They're so cheap!
I really am considering rehairing her, though, since it's so dry.
-
I love before and afters! Great job on these!
-
I LOVE seeing before and after pics of dirty ponies, they're so satisfying! Great job on all of these, and yay to your friend for finding them!!
-
Really nice after cleaning! Very pretty! :lovey:
