Sylvanian Families Beechwood Hall

Ashrie and her second birthday presents!

It was a special present from my brother AR, (Ashrie’s only uncle from Daddy’s side). It was given to her on her second birthday party held at the Family Bay Area of the Lower Seletar Reservoir. Actually, this does not came as a surprise for us since we have been in the scene, from requesting for this gift, to buying, and even wrapping! It has been a family affair.

Here are Ashrie’s photos while opening up the pretty package:

Hmm, what could be in this big box?

It's SF Beechwood Hall!

This is for the Living Room

While here’s a short background about the Sylvanian Families from Wikipedia: Sylvanian Families (シルバニアファミリー Shirubania famirii?) is the name of a line of video games and anthropomorphic collectible toy flocked plastic figures, created by David Sylvian in 1985 and distributed worldwide by a number of companies. The characters, grouped into families, feature woodland creatures such as beavers, hedgehogs, mice and bears, although in recent years, they have expanded to other animals such as cats, dogs, penguins, monkeys and meerkats. They remain a quintessential part of the 1990s boom in craze (or fad) toys. The word 'sylvan' means 'of the forest'.

Moreover, here’s what www.sylvanianfamilies.com has to say for SF Beechwood Hall:Wade Waters and Alonzo Macavity, the Sylvanian builders, have been working very hard this winter on the refurbishment of Willow Hall.

The new version for 2010 is called BEECHWOOD HALL and has been given a lick of paint to update the colour to a brighter shade of cream. The house still comes with two working lights and has space for additional lights from the Home Interiors Set (ref L41, sold separately) to be added to the other rooms.

The most exciting new feature however is the new LANDING SPACE on the first floor. The new triangular floor piece clips into place between the two bedrooms to create a landing. You can then move between the upstairs rooms easily, or even have the staircase coming up to the landing rather than straight into one of the upstairs rooms. Also the middle floor piece is now reversible with a wooden floor on one side, and green grass on the other.

So if you are an SF collector, a fanatic, or simply fascinated with these adorable creatures, you can follow Ashrie’s journey in her own Sylvania by visiting and giving a LIKE on her page on Facebook via Ashrie’s Beechwood Hall. We will be constantly updating this page with videos, and articles about SF Beechwood Hall and probably some other SF news and updates.

Thanks!
