I'm so happy to have this again :cry:

Well, not quite complete because although I have 3 name tags (Bluebelle, Snuzzle, Butterscotch) I would like lots more! Does anyone know how the name tags were sold, was it three per set at random? I have collected the accessories over time. I am not sure about the brush I think it is too dark pink to be the right one! What do you think? The blanket is reproduction, I made it myself, but the ribbon is original.

I think it's lovely! Brings back some childhood memories for me. :)
-
Wonderful and your Butterscotch looks so nice and gorgeous!
-
I have no idea about how the name tags were sold, but I have some spares if you're interested?

Oh I love this playset and yours looks to be in great shape. In the US the Pretty Parlor always came with eight name tags for the original six + Peachy + Lemon Drop. In the UK I believe the name tags changed with time, and sometimes came with names on the front and back? I used to own reproduction Grooming Parlour name cards that included Cherries Jubilee, Tootsie, Lickety-Split, Posey, Starshine, Skydancer, Windy, Moonstone, Sunlight, Parasol, Peachy, and I think Majesty. There is also another UK set that includes Bubbles, Seashell, Applejack, and Bow-Tie. Hopefully someone will come along with more info (or you can post about it in the Corral).
Again, congrats!

Oh yes please! I will pm you tomorrow :)
Thanks everypony! The three I have so far have names on just one side. I will post about them in the corral and maybe think about making some reproductions using the restoration project. Exciting!!

I love the set up and the repro blanket with the bow :) thank you for sharing!
-
that looks fantastic
-
I was really excited when I got the grooming parlour (as an adult collector!) too. It is such a neat, iconic set. Congrats :cheer:
-
Thanks everypony!

Congrats! :)

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! ^.^

Congrats I have most of this set myself.

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 :D

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!

really nice! congrats!

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

I used an average paint spray can on it yesterday! It's a cute, pastel pink colour now :P 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 :P

These arrived today. I can't believe how kind you were to spot my post and send me your spares :cry: :hug: 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? ^.^

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 :lol:

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 ^.^

Congrats!! A lovely one it is too ^_^
