About
Join me on My LPS Project, where I collect and document the vintage Littlest Pet Shop toys from the '90s, inspired by my childhood memories.
Hello! I'm 35 years old woman living in Norway, and I had some of these toys when I was young. I truly loved them and played with them a lot. My LPS journey began one Christmas when I received the green carrier case and the set with three dogs and a doghouse. Additionally, I had a set with two hamsters, some cats and kittens, and my favorite, the vet set. Unfortunately, I couldn't keep any of my own toys from childhood—they were either too worn out or simply lost.
However, in April 2023, I stumbled upon one of the sets on an online second-hand market. It hadn't occurred to me before that I could find this series online, but once I saw it, I was hooked. That was the first set, and from there, my collection grew rapidly.
At the beginning of 2023, I had my first child, a daughter. My initial thought was to pass these toys on to her when she’s old enough, but now the collection has grown so much that it might be overwhelming. Still, I want to do something special for her, since these toys mean so much to me. I plan to draw all the animals and maybe create a large, beautiful poster for her room. In the meantime, I'll enjoy this project to the fullest—finding, collecting, drawing, and writing about them. Welcome to My LPS Project! Join me on this journey!
Please bear with me if updates are sometimes slow. I work full-time and balance roles as a mother, girlfriend, sister, and friend. This project is my happy place and something I genuinely enjoy working on, so I appreciate your patience and understanding. It's not just about the Littlest Pet Shop figures and collection; it's also an opportunity for me to code and develop the site. Plus, it gives me a great excuse to enhance my skills as a developer. So, here are the things on my to do-list, or maybe only the dream-list.
In the pipe:
- overview pages with ALL the sets, animals and accessories - not only the ones I have
- link from group name in accessories table on set page to the accessories overview page, directly to the clicked group
an overview page with all the accessories (that's a big and probably long lasting task!)I've started on it!- a page with "Things I need" and "Things I have extra", maybe we can trade?
- bigger image when you click on them from the gallery
small fixes for iPhone- a feedback function you can write to me via the website
- create small movies or gif's to show the figures in action
an overview page with my drawingsdone
