Home Sweet Home

Of all of the most important things I collected during my time in South Korea, I would rate my toys at the top of the list! My toys finally have a home here in Iowa, as seen here displayed on a few shelves. Seriously, every time I look over at my toys, I get super happy. I love toys!

Wrapped up just for you!

I bought a blindboxed figure recently and got incredibly lucky to pull this cutie out of the box. In addition to being cute, she is wearing nothing but the yellow ribbon she is all tied up in. Yay!

Vinyl Toys That Make Me Smile

More toys!!! I know that I am an adult and all that, but toys are sooo awesome and these toys are meant for adult collectors like myself. Nerdy right? But you know you are jealous!

Jungle Kitty Wants Sushi

This weekend, I went to the Ewha Women's University and did some shopping in the area. I think I have a new favorite place to shop around! And the area is very woman friendly- as soon as you get off of the subway, the population seems to be ALL women! Ha ha!

The shopping streets are all pedestrian only alleys that twist and wind around. Unlike the entire rest of the city of Seoul, there are actually places for men to buy clothing too! Bet they sell alot to the boyfriends that come visit their girlfriends at the university.

Some of the shops are extremely tiny- about the size of my bedroom, or in some cases, the entire boutique is about the size of a hallway! Sheesh! Also, there is a fantastic San-X store and a specialty toy store that carries many Japanese import items. I love it!

I bought these blind boxed sushi sets from the San-X store. They are soo tiny and adorable and realistic looking. At the toy store that carried Japanese imports, I picked up a different food miniature blind box- Mickey Mouse Cafe foods! How cool is that?

And finally, I got an adorable jungle Hello Kitty set, where each tanned kitty is dressed as a warrior or cave man. On the bottom of the box was writing that said "for sale in Japan only." I love import items!
