Sylvanian Families Home Sweet Home Living Room Set

Dear Readers,

Today I want to share with you one of my latest arrivals. A vintage living room set I bought some weeks ago.I´m not totally sure but I think it was released on 1987, in case I´m wrong I would appreciate to know the exact date.
I couldn´t belive my eyes when I found this set on a spanish buying and selling site.It  was brand new in box and the price was very reasonable. I had always wanted to have this living room. I love SF families but I also have a soft spot for furniture sets and this one had been on my wishlist for a long time.

The stickers were still in their plastic bag!

I never thought I was going to find this set brand new. Isn´t it great?

This cabinet bookcase is one of the pieces of furniture I like the most. 

It comes with eight books and a silver picture frame.

Here are the books after pasting the stickers.

I have the same cabinet in green but I like this one more.

There were also stickers for two picture frames.

The armchairs have velvet upholstery and look quite sturdy.

This set comes with two tables and two lovely tableclothes:
A coffe table

and a round dining room table with four chairs.
Even though all the pices of furniture are made out of plastic, they look as if they were made out of wood.

The sets includes two cups, two saucers and two spoons.
I don´t like the spoons. I wonder why they are white.Maybe they wanted them to look like they were ceramic. This idea has just crossed out my mind.It makes sense.All the cuttlery of the Harvester Restaurant is also whilte. White plastic spoons would suit a camping set but not a living room like this one or a restaurant.Don´t you think so?

I love the embroidery tablecloth!

Finally, this lamp is also part of the set.

The lampshade can be used as a dress, haha!
Peter was quite shocked when he saw Peace wearing it.

"Do you like it, Peter?"
"Nice lamp…, I mean nice dress! Yes, you look lovely…"He didn´t sound very convinced.

The whole  living room set.

I meant to finish the post with this picture but it didn´t do it justice. So I tried to improve it a little bit. Better now?

Now that the living room is set up properly,I´m going to take the opportunity to show you a sylvanian vintage ceramic tea set I bought second hand some time ago.
Sebastian Cheshire kindly offered to prepare tea for the occasion and he even brought some cakes! He is so kind and thoughtful! 

"Anyone for tea?" I´m sure some of you wouldn´t mind sitting here and enjoying a nice cup of tea and a cake, am I right?
Sebastian reminded me The Tuxedo family was still in its box since Christmas. They were one of my Christmas presents.
"Why don´t we treat them for tea? He suggested.
"Good idea, Sebastian!"

So I let them out and in the twinkling of an eye, the smell of just brewed tea and cakes led them to the living room.
Rose and Lily sat at the table looking forward to eating one of those delicious cakes.They were so hungry!
Mason and Natalie introduced themselves to Sebastian and thanked him for such a nice welcome.

The Marlowes were delighted!What a nice treat!

When they finished their tea, Sebastian came back to clear the table. The Marlowes thanked Sebastian again and had a small chat about Sweet Berry Valley and its villagers.

Natalie and Mason asked Sebastian if they could stay in the living room for a bit longer.
"Of course!Make yourself at home".

Rose asked her father to reach a book from the cabinet ."What about this one?: "Holly Wildwood at the party concert ", it sounds interesting".

The Marlowes look as relaxed as if they were at their own home.

Mason and Natalie talked about their future plans. I couldn´t hear the whole conversation but I overheard some words such as babies, big city, big house, renting, school, new job…

Will the Marlowe family stay in Sweet Berry Valley or will they  move to the big city?
I´m  just throwing this question out there because I have no answer yet.

The Tuxedos are lovely but their looks suit the town more than the village life, don´t you think so? They look so elegant and classy in their satin outfits!
We´ll see what happens… 
Something I like about this family is theI fact that the father is black and the mother is white.I like the idea of mixed race couples. 


There is just one more thing I would like to show you. Last weekend, I went to a shopping centre where there is a toy shop that sells the shopping series blind bags.
To my surprise, they were cheaper than last time I was there. They went down from 8€ to 5€ which is a very reasonable price.
I was over the moon when I got the Tuxedo baby cat with the trolley. He´s so cute!.As I didn´t have the baby when I took these pictures we´ll just pretend he was having a nap while his parents and sisters were having tea in the living room.

He is standing on a summer dress I also bought yesterday.The floral pattern is so sylvanian!These critters have such a big influence in my life!Haha!


I wrote this post with the only intention to show you my new living room and I ended up showing you a ceramic tea set, a new family and my latest SF baby figure.Inevitably,one thing led to another… Anyway, the four are new additions to my collection so I hope you have enjoyed reading about them.

Hugs!
