flashback to xmas 2000, the american girls line made minis back in the early 2000s, including these fun illumarooms ~
lil's diner lunchcounter ~
this girl's bedroom set has a kitty with her own little house too of course ~
by 2003 they were discontinued due to product breakage & electrical lighting issues ~
i love the cool retro lil's diner set with lunch counter & accessories ~
& all the mini items that make this set look so realistic, like the tiny shakemaker ~
this reminds me of rainy afternoons spent having a grilled cheese & milkshake at toxic's old local woolworth's lunch counter ~
the light bars stick by magnet & plug into tiny outlets ~
the windows also stick by magnet & have changeable scenes you insert ~
originally these set boxes were made of wood like mine are ~
mattel took over from the pleasant company years ago ~
i still have many of the fun magnet/signs from lil's diner on my fridge ~
here's the bedroom box set before you arrange it with lights & furniture ~
see the tiny outlets ~
the wall pieces are reversible depending on which pattern you like & a dustcover sticks over the front also by magnet to protect the scene inside ~
i wish i'd gotten the horse stable set before these were discontinued, but there were only so many xmas's they were available ~
original brochures ~
for my own minis & houses just look down left in the sidebar for links ~
some of my favorite xmas toys ever ~
