Hey there!

Hi everyone!

I'm almost a 30 year old woman from Finland, studying floristry atm, hopefully graduating within few months My family includes a boyfriend, who I've been with for 6 years now, and three cute cats. They all accept my MLP hobby quite well

I've loved My Little Ponies for all my life really, I've played with them a lot when I was a kid, and treated them good too (no stupid lipstick, pen marks or hair cutting!). I actually started to collect MLP's about 4 years ago when I checked out my mom's closets, I wondered if the ponies were still there, and how were they doing I had 31 ponies from my childhood collection, so there was a pretty good base for start collecting them.

I'm collecting only G1 ponies and some of the merchandise. Some of my favourite series are Baby Ponies with First Tooth, Twice as Fancy Ponies, Twinkle-Eyed Ponies, Brush 'n Grow Ponies (I just love the manes!), Sweetberry Ponies, Sparkle Ponies, Sunshine Ponies and Candy Cane Ponies. My favourite pony as a kid was Cherry Treats, and I think it kinda still is, so I picked her for my profile picture Few years ago I actually found a perfume oil that smells just like Cherry Treats, that's also one of my favourite perfumes! I guess they're connected

I have a website from my MLP collection, it's only in Finnish, but there's very little text all around

I'm really looking forward to find some new ponies to my collection from here, hopefully within EU since the postages are so high nowadays!

^ I got them a new wooden box. Atm I don't have room to display them, so this is the case now.

Welcome to the Arena.  What a great looking collection.  What kind of Floristy are you studing?  My husband is a head grower in a green house.

Well I'm supposed to work at flower shops after graduating, but who knows where I end up I'm most fond of pot plants, and I'd love to work with them a lot more than a regular Finnish flower shop florists.

Hi and welcome

I was always very careful with my ponies when I was younger too. Saying that, I played with them an awful lot though so my original Cotton candy is a tad worn looking.  I haven't upgraded her though because of all of the fun we had together.  I hope you enjoy the forums and I look forward to seeing you around

I actually think too, that I could never upgrade any of the ponies from my childhood! No matter how awful they look (but they don't ) Only some of their hair is a little frizzy, I did brush them A LOT!

Yep, I feel the same way. Poor Cotton Candy's hair is rather dry and she has some regrind from all of the play we did together but to me she is the most 'valuable' pony in my collection and still holds pride of place on my shelf
