About

I’m Chelsea Ann. 

I’ve written my name as Chelsea Ann since the day I got married. 

But no one calls me that. I’m really just plain old Chelsea. 

I’m a mother of three. Three very cute, very loud humans. They are the cause of daily headaches and belly aching laughter. I was blessed through IVF, adoption, and an oops! - “How in the world could this have happened?” 

My husband is more than I deserve. He’s my handyman, slash muscles for all my diy curbside finds. He puts up with our home looking like a Disney toy museum, and my lack of interest in cooking. He’s my very best friend. 

Married 2007 

Ive always loved toys.

 It’s been said that I love anything with a face. In my 20s I collected vintage Fisher Price, 1970s Sesame Street and Winnie the Pooh Bear. I was diagnosed with bi-polar depression following the birth of my first daughter. After the birth of my second daughter I went to a very dark, very scary place. It’s taken years to find my way through my depression, both through acceptance and the right “cocktail.” ... At some point during that time I guess I decided I needed change. I sold just about everything I had collected over the years (except my Pooh Bear collection ) and started fresh. Yes, I have regrets... but you can’t hold onto everything, especially if you are a semi hoarder like I am. One item in, one item out - or so they say. I always always loved Disney, but my obsession is only a few years young. I collect all kinds of Disney. But mostly vintage. I’m picky, and every piece that takes up space on our walls or sits on a shelf, has to make me happy. 

What’s the number for 911?

I absolutely love the Disney community.

. In a perfect world I’d live in Florida, work at Disney, and get together to bound with all my bffs. But for now it’s just me and the kiddos dressing up and showing our team Disney spirit here in the NW. We try to visit Walt Disney World as often as we can.

My hobbies keep me very busy.

I love drawing, crafting, and reading. In addition I love thrifting and photography, especially if I’m the goof  in front of the camera. I love dressing up. However I’m ashamed that motherhood got the best of me and most days I live in my pjs. In my 20s I lived in dresses. Mostly vintage frocks. I want to get back to that lifestyle. Dressing up always gives me more confidence, boosted my productivity and put pep in my step. 

In late winter or early spring of 2020 I will relaunch my Etsy shop. 

For the past two years I have been saving lost and forgotten toys. I have buckets of small toys that I’ve collected. It’s amazing how much of something you can find once you start looking. Given, small toy shopping is no easy sport. You might hit 20 garage sales in a day and only find one or two pieces. But when you score something special, or a whole lot of somethings there is nothing like it. I might only be making sense to my treasure hunting friends... but it is an amazing feeling. 

If ever I saw someone doing a happy dance in the middle of a rummage sale, we’ll I’d want to be their friend instantaneously. 
2020 is going to bring big changes for my shop.
Heading in many new directions... excited to share more soon. 

I hope this blog will connect me to friends both new and old.

 Many many years ago I blogged under the name ittybittybirdy. I made life long friends and I hope to connect in the same way again.
