So I noticed on Facebook a couple collectors of Blythe from Asia post pictures of this new set so I went and checked the IKEA website and nothing? I decided to call my nearest store and they did actually have 17 in stock but that night they would only have 16 left! lol I grabbed one as soon as we were in the right spot. Seemed like forever before we got there since we had to walk about half way through. So I see a single set on the top and no display. Then my husband pointed out the rest of them at the bottom on the floor. I was a bit disappointed because my dolly Veronica, my LL Blythe doll neo, didn't really get to a chance to play. lol And I couldn't document their display. Oh well.
I just took a quick picture of my dolly in front of the box. Woooo.. fun. lol Anyways, I found the lighting was sooooooo bright and not warm like before? Maybe I hadn't been there in a while. It's like get your stuff and get out. lol I want to play around with my dolly for a while, okay. Whatever! lol Oh well at least they actually had it in stock.
So now IKEA has 2 sets for your 12" full size neo Blythe dolls! A bedroom and a living room set. They are so cute and I love how bright and colorful they are. Perfect for my dolly condo diorama! Hope they make a kitchen next. I would love a table with 4 chairs, cabinets and a sink, fridge and stove too. I bet it would be really cute!
So here is the only display of the LR set with a $4.99 CND plus tax back drop with 4 different rooms. I decided to pass on that. I do want to make my own one of these days. I can still get away with using my IKEA shelf right now.
So when I got the BR set home I was so impressed at how cute it was and perfect for my Kozy Kape Kiwi!! The foot of the bed actually slides out to accommodate more dolls of different sizes. What a great idea!
Oh! I forgot to mention that I used the $15 IKEA gift card I received last year for being inconvenienced by having to come back to get a new shelf top due to their forklift damage I was able to buy my new set for only $4.99 CND plus tax!! Yay!!!
I really like IKEA doll furniture and shelving because it no only looks good but it's very affordable. This hobby is expensive enough so it really helps. :)
Here are my former IKEA posts about the HUSET LR Set and the KALLAX shelf I got aka dolly condo, to house my dollies, accessories and furniture sets! Yes it's that big!
Well that's for now. I hope everyone is doing great and having a wonderful week so far.
Best,
