The Waterbrook Beaver Family

Andrew Woodbrook is the carpenter in Lingondale. He takes cares of everyones remodellings and new stores that have to be built, and if anyone have any problem they can come to him to any time at the day. His wife Aubrey likes to make and teach wickerweaving. On their freetime the Woodbrooks love to go camping!

This family is probably the cutest family I know. I love everything about them, absolutley everything! Ethan might be the cutest thing in the world.

The Slydale Fox Family

Gilroy Slydale knows how to get a good deal. That's why he decided to co-ordinate all the Lingondale local suppliers and opened a supermarket in Lingondale where the citizens can get lots of reasonably priced grocery's in between the weekly markets!

Mother Ruby
Brother Rufus
Sister Scarlett

I really fell for Ruby's dress, and think that Gilroy looks like the perfect storekeeper. Sadly I their legs and arms are very hard to move, but they are adorable!

The Springer Kangaroo Family

Bruce and Sheila Springer moved to Lingondale as newly weds where they bought a little cottage on Applewood Lane. Bruce immediately started up the cricket team that most of the males in Sylvania takes time in. Bruce works as a P.E. teacher at the Lingondale School as well.

I bought this family at Toys'r'us again, but in November. They are just so adorable, and I love little Josie and how she sits in her mothers apron.

The Porridge Bear Family

The Porridge Family has also lived in Lingondale, where Cuthbert's family has owned the little toyshop, for ages. Just recently the home business with Cuthbert making the toys in a little shed, became a top modern store, with a little play area for the children!

The Dale Sheep Family

As I will be away from my collection during the summer, I wanted to keep this blog alive. So I decided to do a little "meet the families" introduction over the next few weeks as I will be away from the internet and the hobby as well for almost two months! Have a happy summer! :)

The Dale Family is the longest living family in Lingondale. They have owned Highfields farm for as long as it was built and are proudly producing most of Lingondale's groceries. It was a Dale family member that first made up the famous lingonberry jam, which gave the village it's name!

Mother Barbara
Brother Winton

I got the Dale Sheep family for my 20th birthday from my best friend S. It was the first Sylvanian item I ever owned and the beginning of an obsession. Thank you so much S.!

Slydale Supermarket

A while ago, 4th of April, I bought and wallpapered the Supermarket. I have loved this building since I first saw it, it doesn't look like a supermarket at all, but a cute little store in a small village - perfect for Lingondale!
Now, I went a little bit picture-crazy with this store, which have to be one of my favourites (there are so many little bits and bobs!) so please beware if you chose to scroll down! It doesn't end! Hahaha!
What I really do love about this set is the versatility, there is even wine and beer! (although that might feel a little bit Transylvanian, as my friend S. call darker Sylvanian stories/pictures.)
Also, I am not sure if I like the wallpaper... it is a bit minty, and even if I love mint... I think that something more greener would be cuter? Hmm...
Well, enough babbling, on with the cavalcade of pictures!
