Thank you all for staying with me year after year! It is amazing how fast time flies. Our favorite toy house is now...46 years old this year. So, this is an anniversary AND birthday post (now over 318,000 views).
How long has this house been in your life? Do you have vintage memories of it, or are you just now discovering how unique and amazing this play set it? Would love to see your comments below. I still remember being in the ToysRus and KayBtoy stores and seeing this in the original 70s colors on display, and later the pink version assembled in store and hanging from ToysRus's ceiling above the Barbie aisle in the late 80s.
Mine was eventually given away and it was out of my life until 2008 when I acquired a very incomplete one from ebay. This was the first of I think about 8 or so that I got, restored and sold, upgrading parts to my own one each time along the way.
Through these years I have posted everything I can find on this house and related content. Presently, my house is set up in a spare bedroom / hobby room on its own table with all its accoutrement. I have truly enjoyed preserving and writing about these houses. It's a labor of love! I hope you continue to enjoy the blog and your own adventures with the house.
* Butterflies courtesy of dollar tree, there is a green and brown version of bag of cut outs, fun for crafting. I modified by holding with needle nose pliers to bend the wings up and added dollar tree wire to mimic antenna and provide a means of attachment.
