Pony Corral / Pony Storage

« on: June 05, 2016, 09:36:20 AM »

I need some storage advice. I might have to store my ponies for a while in a storage unit. It's climate controlled between 68-85 degrees F. Is this acceptable for them?

Trader & Shipping Support / Need help buying from Japan

« on: May 08, 2015, 04:51:27 AM »

Is there anyone here in Japan who could help me buy something? It is through a flower delivery service so I don't think I can use a middle man. I need someone who lives in Japan to buy and receive it and then ship it to me. I would pay all costs of course.

Wanted! / Wanted Glitter Funko Pinkie Pie (Spitfire and Sweetie Drops too)

« on: June 19, 2014, 06:49:31 AM »

Looking for a Glitter Funko Pinkie Pie. I'd like to spend no more than $45 shipped (because I have seen a few come and go for that or less on ebay).

I'm also looking for Glitter Spitfire and Sweetie Drops but I doubt anyone has them for sale yet.

Pony Corral / Pony Nostalgia: Which pony brings back the most memories for you?

« on: May 13, 2014, 08:11:07 AM »

I had probably about 15-25 ponies growing up, but I notice that whenever I see a certain couple of ponies, or even art of these ponies it brings me right back to childhood and my fondest memories of play. For me it is Starshine, Windy, and Princess Sparkle that take me immediately back.

Starshine and Windy were the first ponies I had (not counting Butterscotch whom was so well loved she was thrown out by mom when I got these two new girls). Every time I see them I think they are the best ponies ever because they take me right back to happy memories. Princess Sparkle was a later pony for me, but she also brings back really great memories that this time include my sister. We both got Princess Sparkles!

Which ponies bring you right back to your favorite memories even if they might not be your favorite ponies?

Pony Brag Arena / Valentine's Day Private Swap with Mikia9 Brag and RAOPK Shenanigans Brag.

« on: February 14, 2014, 09:01:49 PM »

This was certainly a sweet valentines for me this year! I have two things to brag about. Mkia9 and I had a private valentines swap and Shenanigans sent me a valentines surprise!

First the swap:

Mkia9 is such a great swap partner. She really knows how to put a fantastic box together. She includes all these great little notes too! Her boxes are always decorated so creatively. There were all these conversation heart stickers on the box and red tinsel.

Inside, oh my golly gosh, SO many little boxes!

Look at all the little heart boxes!!!

I received all my favorite valentines treats and few new treats like the gingerbread twix which combines my favorite candy bar with one of my favorite flavors. I am a big fan of red hots. I've already polished them off. I got a Rapunzel tin I had been looking for! Mkia9 is so thoughtful and this is my favorite of all the tins! Mint free conversation hearts! yum o yum! See that square frozen thingy? It is a badge that flashes in mesmerizing bright lights. I'm fascinated with it. The rose pill box is Lenox and fits right in with my vintage style. It is incredibly pretty. The stickers are pretty awesome too. I'm going to be using them everywhere! I like to sign things with little hearts.

Then there are the handmade things made just for me with my favorite creatures such as the nudibranch, snails, and moths. I love that the frame is in two of my favorite colors combined. And I really think the seaslugs in the box are adorable!

I will be putting my stone ring collection in the box. Here are two Mkia9 picked up for me at the renaissance fair:

Okay these last three pictures are hard for me to decide between which should be last. First the plethora of pins is astounding! But the handmade valentines nudibranch really makes me smile. Yet, the super amazing handmade Russian doll REVERSIBLE handbag might top them all! I just love it!

So many pins! And I love each one. My favorites are: the vintage Snow White, the aurora eyes rectangle pin, and Cinderella because she has light brown hair in it like she has in the movie!

Here is my sweet candy girl Valentina. She's a darling!
I'm not totally happy with this picture of her so I might need to take a few more. She needs a setting in which she can stand out for how awesome she is.

And here is my new bag! It's going to be used A LOT. a whole lot!

Thank you so much for making my valentines day so special Mkia9. I loved everything!

Phew!!! Next!

Shenanigans is the sweetest thing on the planet sending out random surprises for Valentines. She's such a good friend and I could brag until the cows come home about how sweet and kind she is. She sent me a beautiful box! She also knew I was looking for the valentines tins and sent me all three designs! I am rolling in princess heart chocolates!

Some of her beautiful artwork is displayed in her card:

She send her very famous delicious pony cookies! She knows I am addicted to them!

I don't think Shenanigans knows how much I like cute food things but I do. I got a bagel!

And finally I got two ponies I have been wanted forever, and they are so mint I am almost allergic to them! Those are the nicest factory curls I have ever seen on a loose pony! I can't believe they are both mine!

Thank you so so much, you are too sweet.

You both blew me away! Thank you again and again! I can't really find the words to describe how happy these boxes made me.

Wanted! / WANTED: TARGET Valentine's Princess Mugs Ariel, Belle, and Cinderella

« on: February 11, 2014, 06:34:02 AM »

I have run out of luck finding these at my Target. None of the stores in my area have them. I would be over the moon if anyone is able to find them for me and is willing to ship them.

The store product number is: 055-07-2880

They are found in the seasonal valentines section (at my store it was in the very back corner). They are mugs with a heart box of candy in them. There are three different versions: Ariel, Belle, and Cinderella and I am looking for all three.

I don't have my own photo of them because I can't find them!!! So here is a link to someone else's photo (Ariel not shown):

Walmart is also selling a slightly different version of them with Rapunzel, Ariel, and Cinderella, but I can't find any photos! If you find them at Walmart I would love those two. I want a set of each from each store.

Off Topic / Private non-pony swap with Mkia9! (Pic heavy!)

« on: January 01, 2014, 07:12:19 AM »

Mkia9 and I did a private "these are a few of our favorite things" style private swap including local items.

You can see Mkia9's brag here:
http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,346777.0.html

Mkia9 is one of the most thoughtful swap partners around! She pays great attention to what you like and even goes so far as to look in our past at things you've posted about liking. I was thoroughly spoiled by everything!

Let me start with the first box, yes, I was sent two boxes!

Spoiler

I love the use of baggies for wrapping.

So much to open!

First I opened gifts for my puppy. He loves them!

I had to take pictures of the alligator chews because they are so cute.

There were also treats for my kitty. I don't yet have pictures of him with them but he loves these treats and he loves toys to bat.

And treats for my husband who loves gummies

Now some treats for me! I love trying new things and I've never had any of this. The tamarind spoons so far are my favorites. They are sweet but salty and spicy all at once. The squares are soft frosting like candy in a strawberry vanilla flavor which is decadently smooth and sweet. I've not tried the nuts or brittle yet.

Mkia9 didn't know I love cactus, but I do and I love taffy. So I was thrilled to receive cactus flavored taffy. They are really really good. So is the fruity taffy. I'm also a fan of pez and Snow White. She's my favorite princess.

Okay I have no idea how that creepy dog picture got in here, but it amuses me so it's staying. She did not send me soul seeking dogs. Here is the taffy and pez.

I LOVE this mug. Mkia9 was my mug swap partner too and sent me a ton of mugs I love. Somehow she managed to find yet another fantastic mug. It's one of my favorites. I think it might be vintage (which I love) and it has really cool mushrooms on it. Reminds me of the 70s.

And she remembered that I was collecting icicles this year so I have another unique icicle to add to my tree. I really love icicles and I think I will keep adding to them over time.

On to the second box!

How did Mkia9 know I wanted that Frozen tote? It's something I never would have bought for myself but really really wanted. She read my mind. I love the stickers too. And she send very thoughtful games and activity books for my travel.

That is a snowflake cookie next to the activity book which I just realized I haven't tried yet because I was waiting on getting fresh milk. Milk is here, soon it will meet cookie.

This tin is beautiful. Mkia9 also didn't know I collect a few tins. Well, this is one I had never seen and am definitely glad to see added to my home. The art on it is gorgeous. It's not only Snow White but all the pictures look like thy came right out of the movie. The pictures go all the way around the tin.

Inside the tin I found pins, magnets, and a dream catcher. Oh and a mini Snow White ornament. I love all of these! I feel like I am getting too wordy with praise, but it's really like Mkia9 looked into my mind to make the perfect box.

Yet there is more! There were lots of treats! The cactus candy was the first thing I tried and I think I need more. I love the cactus ornament too. And all the chocolates, gingerbread, cocoa, so much to try! All things I like.

A nesting doll! Another item she found out I liked from my pat posts.

I really like Brass Key dolls and I didn't know hey came in this size. It's the perfect size for me because I like small dolls. Plus one is Snow White!

And the cutest glass snail in the world. He is perfect.

You'd think I should be done by now, but wait there's even more! In the box open last (which is my favorite of all), there were handmade ornaments. I'm so touched you made these for me.

Names modified for privacy.

Mola molas are one of my favorite animals and you can't really find much made of them. This is a sweet pair.

Mushrooms!

And finally, phew! A NUDIBRANCH! She's so gorgeous. Her name is Marcianna and she can't wait to meet Boris the Breakfast caterpillar and Sveta my other Arena nudibranch.

Thank you Mkia9 so much again for everything and for being such a fun swap partner! This was an amazing swap.

I'm curious which new Disney character you like the design of more. Or which one you think you are going to like more. I know opinions are forming even before the movie comes out.

Wanted! / Wanted: the Rose Hair clips that come with G4 Glitter Pie and Wysteria

« on: August 18, 2013, 04:45:36 PM »

Looking for the white and black rose hair clips that come with glitter Pinkie Pie and Wysteria. I have the ponies from Taobao, but want the clips too without buying more ponies!

Wanted! / Want to buy: G4 brushable Applejack with BLUE tinsel or Pink or Red.

« on: July 27, 2013, 05:42:46 AM »

I'm looking to collect the G4 Applejacks that came out with colored tinsel. Right now I am really wanting the one with blue tinsel, but if you have other colors I might be interested in them too.

These are the versions with regular hair but instead of gold tinsel they had either blue, purple, brown, black, or other colored tinsel (green maybe? I'd really want green too) It is not the "crazy punk rock" tinsel version.

Thank you!

Pony Brag Arena / Merry Go Round ponies. One is a cat!

« on: July 04, 2013, 02:43:10 PM »

Bouquet was the last pony I saw in stores and almost bought. I regretted not getting her for years! Now I finally have her along with three of her sisters. I'm hoping to one day complete this set as I think it is one of my favorites.

One is a cat. She is a new addition too, being one of my first mlp cats.

I'd love to see your Carousel ponies and cats!
