Title: Wohoo, ponyluck at a yardsale!! (with pics!!)
Post by: Baby Mischief on July 30, 2013, 10:20:38 AM

There was a yardsale this weekend right next to where I live and I thought I should give it a shot. So far I have never ever found any G1´s at yardsales or thriftstores... But at the first table we walked to was a box filled with McDonalds-toys and in there I saw Peachys feet! This is what I came home with:

I got them all for 6,93USD!  ^.^ Here they are after a day at the spa:

Baby Lemon Drop had some penmarks on her face that I didnt manage to get rid off.. :( And it looks like she has at least one extra plug of hair in her forehead..! :blink: I am pretty sure that Trulys curls are original, I managed to save them when I cleaned her. Unfortunately she also has a lot of penmarks that I couldnt remove, both in her face and on her body. Maybe they can be sunfaded?
Peachy, Baby Lemon Drop and Truly are going straight to my tradelist, if any one is intrested! ;)

BigHicks1977: I will definitely hunt more!! The thing is we dont get them a lot where I live, but I will hunt them down..!
I have always loved fleamarkets and stuff, even before I got into ponies again, so now I just have one more reason to go! :biggrin:

Congratulations! They look amazing all cleaned up! Too bad for the marks on Truly, otherwise she's such a gorgeous colour. Hope they can be sunfaded :)

Have you heard of a product called Remove Zit? It's made by Twin Pines of Maine. I have had great success using it on white ponies. On colored ponies though, it's a gamble- it is likely to lighten the area you apply it to. I did remove some pink highlighter marks off a Seaflower Sunshine pony, and it did lighten the area a bit, but it wasn't really noticable and was an improvement over the pink marks. I have had worse results on a Blossom- it gave her a white spot. I think Remove Zit is only available on their website and costs about $23 after shipping is added. Although I love it, I'd say it's only really 100% safe for white ponies.

With that said, I still think your new girls are beautiful!  ^.^
