My first complete play set, the Grooming Parlour!

This is such a great set and it looks so lovely. Congrats!

I was really excited when I got the grooming parlour (as an adult collector!) too.  It is such a neat, iconic set.  Congrats

That's just it, I love the fact that it all closes up neatly with both ponies inside and Twinkles in her basket!  I guess they were so popular for a reason

Congrats on your first completed play set! I've recently acquired a parlour playset too but it needs massive restoration; thinking of painting it pink! 

Thanks! I have a spare too with cracks and no stickers etc. I was thinking about whether to turn it into a repro of one of the variations or sell it on... decisions decisions! If you did paint it do you know what primer you would use? I wish it were easier to reverse the door, then I could have two next to each other like a kind of double Grooming Parlour!

I used an average paint spray can on it yesterday! It's a cute, pastel pink colour now  Planning on using a sealer (probably the brand Jo Sonja) before painting in the details like hearts & windows. I'm trying to replicate the original stickers too but could only find a scan of the german version...

Nice work! Thanks for these. I'd love to see pictures when it's finished.

Here are the stickers from the My Little Pony Preservation Project, funnily enough it's the Spanish version

I have no idea about how the name tags were sold, but I have some spares if you're interested?

These arrived today. I can't believe how kind you were to spot my post and send me your spares  Thank you so much!

My pleasure   I can't make customs or other things, and usually don't have spare stuff, so I was glad to actually be able to help someone out pony-wise for a change!! Hugs!!

Do you have them all now?

[Artemesia's Garden]

I don't have Minty, she is the only Year 1 pony I don't have yet. I have a label for 1 Rainbow Pony, Parasol, but none of the other Rainbows. I'm not sure whether there were any others! So intriguing!

So cute! Twinkles looks like she's in a little mini bathtub getting groomed too

Twinkles just loves that basket! She sits in it all the time, I'm thinking of making a little mat or cushion to go inside it
