IKEA Has A New Furniture Set That Fits Neo Blythe Dolls! The HUSET Bedroom!!

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,

The "Blythe Bible"

I was sent a Blythe Folder containing pretty much the beginnings of Kenner Blythe Dolls information, by the Toy Hunter, Jordan Hembrough, for my collection. He told me that he was sending me what he called a "Blythe Bible", a file filled basically with designs, pricing, handwritten notes, etc. from a former Kenner employee that he had acquired during one of his hunts. The Toy Hunter said that I could post the contents to share with all Blythe Collectors too and he also told me that it's been over 40 years that it was not subject to any copy write restrictions. It's all photocopies that I have, with a few color copies, and not the originals, but they're still great for referencing! If you are a major collector of Blythe dolls this is probably like plastic crack for you. lol Others may not really care about these but I did find them very interesting myself. He sent it to me a few years ago but unfortunately it wasn't the right time to post it with all that n...

Blythe Doll Care & Tips ( Stains & Storage )

There is so much information out there concerning Blythe doll tips and care that I thought that I would combine what I learned from my own experience over the years and all that I found out from researching the web into this single blog. Storage - When storing blythe dolls it seems that often there is a chemical reaction with plastics that causes melting. So when storing or traveling with your dolls, please be sure that the doll is not touching other plastic (stands, shoes - especially Rosebuds, dolls arms & legs, etc.). Plastic from the face has even melted when the legs of another doll has touched, so please do not store together or any other part touching will melt the doll if stored, it is ideal not to put the dolls together and keep separate. I wouldn't even store the doll contacting the dolls own arms and/or legs to the face. Some even wrap their dolls in a piece of cotton. Stains - Please be careful of denim, tights and black & red clothing. They are probl...

Products That Help Reduce or Eliminate Yellowing On 1972 Kenner Blythe Dolls And Link To Blythe411 Reduce The Frizz Tips.

On Blytheworld Facebook my facebook dolly friend, FiFi Latrixabel, posted she had won a yellowed blonde Kenner Blythe, her Lemon girl, and is attempting to bleach her dolly to have her go back to the original skin color face plate. She is using Pearl Drops but there were other suggestions too. I logged it on my Blythe411 Facebook group with permission from Fiona and another member that had some tips. Pearl Drops "Worth a try until I can get my stuff together for a major skin bleaching session." Fiona W. Snipped from Fiona's post on BlytheWorld with her permission. Update pic of Fiona's lovely blonde kb! I think the yellowing is fading with the pearl drops and the doll is looking very lovely! I can't wait to see the after pictures :D "The formula is called RetroBrite. It removes yellowing from older plastics and returns them to their original color/state. Hope this works." Adrian D. L. Snipped from the following thread with permi...
