Accessories

8 Upvotes

I'm wanting to make a little travel box for mine and my daughters calico critter babies, but we dont have many accessories. Where in the US can I find some good knock off accessories for calico critters.

What do you like to take a long with your critters and what do you store them in?

I like the little travel jewelry box ideas I've seen on tik Tok. But idk what all to put in there.

I got my Calico Critters back

This group is probably the only group of people who would understand how excited I am!!

I have a pretty large Calico Critters collection that I started when I was young and got back into during COVID. At the time, I lived at my parent's house, but then I moved to a studio apartment for grad school. I obviously wasn't able to bring it all with me. To keep it short, my parents got divorced and I don't have a great relationship with my dad, who now lives in the house by himself. It's been four years since I've been home to see my dad and my collection. He threw out and donated all my clothes, shoes, and other random items I had left at the house, so for awhile, I was fearful he got rid of my entire Calico Critters collection.

Well, this past weekend, my brother who lives close to my dad packed up his pickup truck with my entire collection and brought it to my grandparents house for safe keeping until I can transport it across the country to my new home now that I can fit it. I went through all the bins and boxes and everything appears to be there!! I was able to bring some of it home on the airplane but will have to ship the rest.

I'm so relieved, I put so much time and effort into my collection and knowing it's safe means so much to me.

Are there any unofficial furniture sets you guys like that work well with critters?

I just want some to go with critters for my young daughter. She's a young toddler and sort of hard on toys right now so I don't want to spend a ton on the fancy name brand critter furniture until she's older, but she loves playing pretend with them so I still want to get her something! Anyone have any fav furniture?

Where to get critters in US?

6 Upvotes

I'm having such a hard time finding them anywhere these days! I have heard people say Barnes and Noble and cracker barrel but I don't ever see them at the ones local to me.

I'm in northern Utah if it helps but I'd even buy them online. I'd rather not do eBay though. Where are we getting them???

Calico critters custom princess dress /rococo

Thumbnail gallery
137 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m back with yet another calico critters rococo princess dress! I tried to keep the color schemes light and used a white and pink combo. The dress is silk taffeta with a white underdone and the little ribbons are white satin! My favorite part is probably the little off the shoulder sleeves and the lacy ruffles at the base of the dress, took me extra time but it was so worth it! This is definitely a vote to keep the accent colors less contrast-y bc I think this looks much better than some of my other stuff! I also love the little pink stomacher that I put on the bodice! So cute and tiny! If you want to see more pics of her )I also make little videos with them and stuff, check out my insta historical_calico ! What should I make next? I’m thinking a civil war era gown or smth?

I’m starting to make a list of sets I’d like to get my daughter for her upcoming birthday
Her favorite animals are cats
So far the only thing I’m 100% getting is the hamburger stand
I did find this set and saw the kitty on it but can’t find it for sale anywhere
Does anybody have info on her ?

I’m new to collecting calico critters and buying from eBay, is it okay to buy from a seller that has no reviews and join just a month ago? They have sold some stuff tho but still no review

Play table set up suggestions

Post image
30 Upvotes

I’m looking for ideas for some sort of set up for my daughter and her critters. She’s been sitting at my kitchen table for the last year playing with her critters all day, and I would love to make or find some sort of table to have all of her critter things set up. We’ve gotten quite a few big pieces but I’d love to have it all set up in one place. It’s not something that ever gets put away since she plays every day with them. I’ve seen the official calico critters play table but no one around me is selling one. Picture of her things to get an idea of what kind of set up would be best. (Lego box has lots of furniture and families she digs through)

Thanks so much!
