A Peek at Tracy's Place

I am often asked for pictures of my place, and I usually hesitate, because I don't want to be reported to the people that make the Hoarders television show. However, I just put up some new shelves in the dining room, right over my table. They are now happily holding some of my vintage 1950s-70s toys, and I thought they came out pretty well, so here's a peek:


See anything you like?

  1. That little alien in the blue flying saucer must be so cute.And the Gumby with the astronaut helmet and... oh, you get the idea I love it ALL.
    I know there's a hoarder intervention in my future :O So I just make sure everything stays clean because as far as I'm concerned the only shameful part of those shows is when they find moldy stuff.Other than that I'm usually envious ;)As I am of your cute stuff. Take care,Maricha

  2. Your secret is safe with me. Besides, Hoarders is for people with junk. You got nothing but treasures!

  4. Great stuff. I think I see Bam Bam up there. Anyway, my only hesitation with having a collection like this is the need to dust everything.

  5. Yes, the dusting is quite horrific!

  7. Hi Jen, welcome! The sundae dollhouses were from a series called the new Sweet Treats, late entries into Mattel's Liddle Kiddle line in 1979. (There was an earlier, different Sweet Treat line in 1969-70.) The new Sweet Treats included sundaes, cookies, and ice cream bars, all of which opened to reveal a little living space inside, along with a tiny kiddle doll.
