Would you like to watch a little television?
OK. Watch the little television. See how the salt and pepper shakers pop up when I turn it on?
How about a little toast?
This will take only a second.
And it's ready! Would you like the salt or the pepper?
I bought a couple of box lots of salt and pepper shakers Saturday (in addition to the cigar boxes full of salt and pepper shakers), and although there are probably some that are more valuable, the little plastic novelty ones are my favorites. The Grandma's stove box in one of the box lots was just what it promised: a sugar bowl with salt and pepper pots, still wrapped and carefully packed.
Pink and red and perfect. I'm having serious doubts about selling it. I'm pretty sure nobody would want it anyway. Right? (Remember: Friends don't let friends sell things they really want to keep.)

Oh, how cute! You find the best little quirky things. I think you should just go ahead and keep the stove set!

Love this post! It is all so cute and I like that I first thought that was a real antique tv...shades of Happy Days.

These are so cute!!! Did you get any orphan Salt & Peppers that need a home? I always have room for more orphans!

If you sell that pink and red cuteness you know you'll never forgive yourself!

If you do sell the first one - I've seen it used in Blythe dollhouses.
The last one is my favorite. It should be a keeper for sure!

That little tv is killing me -- I wish I were a vintage S&P designer -- looks like a really fun job.

No, you can't sell the stove, it's too cute! Fun S&P's!
Posted by: Shelley Germann | August 04, 2010 at 10:58 PM
At first glance I thought the little tv was a big tv -- completely missed the big S&P on top. These are all wonderful!

OHHHhhhhhh!! I have my grandma's stove set just like this, only when we used to play with it, we broke the front legs. She also had the toaster and the tv looks familiar but I'm not sure if she had it or not.
If you ever consider selling them, please LMK.
