What a lovely collection.  Jenny!  :lovey:

Your new shelves look great.  It's nice to be able to admire your collection rather than have them store away :)

Thanks for sharing pics :frolic:

Wow! I'd never really paid attention to Jenny (or Nirvanas in general) but your pictures of her make me seriously envious. I'm starting to see her in a new light.

These shelves are adorable and display your ponies beautifully. Are they mounted on the wall? It's a little hard for me to tell.

I know!! She is so darling. I was really drawn to her because she's the only brown pony and I think that's so unique of her... I love her with all my heart. I'm not super into the nirvana craze but Jenny stole my heart.

It is mounted on the wall, it has a slider behind it that's screwed into the wall, and it hooks onto the slider and can be adjusted left and right.

I tested the patience of my mother when I was shelf shopping for my ponies too  ;) It's just so important to get the ~perfect~ shelf for any collection  ^.^

Also I may be a little envious of your project ponies...... Even though I have a box of them still waiting to be restored ^^;

Yes, it is wall mounted via a slider that is attached to the wall and the shelf hooks onto the slider and can be adjusted left or right. It's this one from Ikea!!

Beautiful collection beautifully displayed.

I wonder what your seaponies bathroom display looks like....mine live in a glass in the dishes cupboard (when they aren't posing with the goldfish).

my medicine cabinet is built-into the wall and has a small ledge up at the very top where they sit. it only works because a) i only have two seaponies ^^ ; and b) they both have their floaties, meaning that they stay upright. i imagine i will run into trouble if/when i get more, + obviously not every seapony i get will have her floatie. im a little worried about the moisture in the air in my bathroom, but i check regularly for spots and always run the fan when showering and havent seen any marks so for now...they will stay there!

Your ponies are so lovely! Congrats on them all!  I sure do love Jenny since she's brown.  She may be the only brown pony (but I think Crumpet had brown eyes.  Again, brown was a rarely used color).  But the one who really steals my heart is your Italian Firefly!  What a beautiful girl she is!
