An Unexpected Tea House

I was at the Dollar store shopping for prizes to "sell" at the King's Kids Store last night. I came across a Dollhouse kit and thought- "the girls will love this." So I grabbed one, and then I noticed that there was more than one version - so I grabbed another- it happened to be a castle. I, of course, had to get another for a certain niece. Underneath the castle was another house so I got one of each for the store. As I was setting up the store I noticed the sign on one of the houses

  
That is when I got really excited! I just had to open the package. I quickly decided that this was one dollhouse that was not going to be added to store inventory! I am claiming this one for me! Look at all the cuteness just oozing out of every corner!




when put together, it is a 3story house

it comes with stickers for decoration
two dolls and a cat and a dog


the kitchen, full of tea time treats is the first floor

the second floor is the tea room
with Teddy and Dolly ready for fun




The 3 floor has trunks of scarves and other dress up delights






Teacup Thursday Sorta...


 I was going to do a special Tea cup post for Valentine's Day... but I have discovered a very important thing about my camera. If you plan on taking many pictures, it is a good idea to charge the battery occasionally. And if you do not misplace the charger, it is easier to charge the battery . I have been looking for the charger all week, when I found it accidentally this morning I realized why I couldn't find it- I was looking for something MUCH bigger- this charger is tiny! I guess I had my AA charger in mind while I was searching and just passed this miniature version by! I will be purchasing a backup battery to have charged ahead so that I do not have this issue again. This battery is not one you can just run in and grab at the Disneyland, Sea World and Seaport Village gift shops - and if you could, it probably cost you your first born. I bought boring AA batteries at all those gift shops and They. Were. Not. Cheap!!  Anyhoo, the battery is charging as I type this and by this afternoon I will have a Tea Shop post and if you check back tomorrow, I will hopefully have a special Valentine's edition of Teacup Thursday- on Friday.
