Help with a barrette ID!!

[PhyllieBean]

So...I'm working on getting all of my childhood ponies MOC or MIB and I recently scored Banana Surprise.  Her card is awesome, but the bubble is slightly separated at the bottom and her ice cream cone barrette had fallen out (which I knew when I bought her).  So my plan was to replace the barrette and try to seal the bottom of the bubble a bit better. 

HOWEVER...I've seen one guide that says she came with a yellow barrette and one that says she came with a purple one.  I could almost swear that the one I had as a kid was blue, but I haven't been able to dig it out yet.  Does anyone else have her MOC or have a way to definitively identify what color her ice cream cone should be?! 

Oh, and BTW, if you have said barrette for sale, I'm looking to buy as close to perfect of one as I can find!

She always comes with a purple ice cream cone barrette ...she is such an under appreciated little lady

Thanks Hathorcat!  I agree, she is SO underappreciated!  I love my Banana Surprise!  She was one of the few I always took with me on trips!  I could have sworn I had a lighter blue barrette with her though, so now I guess I have to go dig through my original accessories!  I think I'm going crazy!  Lol!

Did you have Sugar Sweet as well? She has the same barrette but its a much lighter purple colour...maybe thats the one you are remembering?

[PhyllieBean]

Nope, just Banana Surprise.  I got my box with my original accessories dug out this morning, and I didn't see her barrette in it at all, which I could SWEAR I have!     I did, however, have all of the sundaes from my Satin Slipper Sweet Shop, which are kinda light blue, so maybe my mind is playing tricks on me!!  My newborn twins accessories weren't in there either and I KNOW I have at least their teeter totter, so I'm thinking my childhood accessories might have got mixed up with the rest.  More hunting to do tonight I guess!

Good luck! I hope you can track them down...nothing more fun than pony accessories [in my opinion ]

I have one of her barrettes that I brought home, unsold, from my Fair booth.  It was $4 and mint, as I recall, but if you end up needing one and are interested, let me know and I'll dig through my bins and take photos of it.    I love those barrettes!

Suh-weeet!  I definitely need one!  Even if I do have my original one, I'll need another for this one.  Off to send you a pm!

Of course!  I sent some photos of it to you.
