Nellie's Meet Accessories were released in 2004 and retired with archival in 2008.
Her accessories include a Celtic cross necklace, hat, flowered drawstring purse with embroidered hankie, and a pretend Irish penny.
I was recently organizing my doll stuff. I can't believe there has never been a review on Nellie's meet accessories so here goes...
Hat - white partial mesh summer hat with wide brim decorated with pansies and a blue ribbon that matches her dress
Purse - light blue drawstring bag with pansy trim, gold tassel at the bottom, and white eyelet at the top
Hanky - white embroidered with lace trim
Coin - replica of an Irish penny.
Necklace - silver Celtic cross (my favorite piece in the set)
This whole set is just beautiful. A+

I was pulling these out and saw no review so...
I bought these free with Rewards at the time. They are iridescent purple ballet flats. Purple shimmery elastic crossed straps attached to back heel loop tab.
They are very cute and remind me of some shoes from the 1980's. I like them pair with jeans as we often wore flats with jeans.

What a nice find. If you do like it, you could always use puzzle saver on the completed puzzle and hang it on the wall as a picture. It would be a perfect addition to a child's or doll room.

 I recently picked this up at a yard sale for 50 cents! It has all the pieces, I don't have room for it so I plan on selling it to another collector but I am currently trying to figure out the best way to take a high quality picture of the completed puzzle before I send it off.

Another freebie with rewards. The sweater is a soft peach color and has nice lurex sparkle and sequins. the little flowers are cute. It reminds me of some 1980's sweaters and belongs to my sometimes 80s girl.

This vest is soft and very nice. I got it free with rewards. I like the gray houndstooth print and subtle sparkle. I use it with my sometimes 80s girl.

A really cute set. I got this free with rewards. The wallaby is quite cute, but I love the carrying pouch and bottle. My dolls use it for a tiny kitty.

I have the Traveling Gown version that came with the book. The dress is a pretty lilac color and the flowers are nicely embroidered. The round eared cap is sweet as is the flower choker necklace.

I absolutely love this dress. The white fabric is so crisp and clean and the ribbon is lovely. The sleeves are sweetly designed. the lace cap is precious on Felicity.

This dress is lovely and looks good with or without the pinner apron. The pompom is a sweet touch.

I love having a second pair of Felicity's birthday socks and extra meet sock and garters. The slippers are so cute and have blue bows for her Christmas gown and burgundy for her school outfit.

I only have two of the gathering baskets, the flowers and the mortar and pestle. The mortar is metal and heavy. the pestle is wood. this is such a cute set.

This set is fabulous! The bird bottle is a replica of the Williamsburg ones. I have the set that comes with two battledores so Felicity can really play with a friend. The signal whistle is just like the human sized one we bought in Williamsburg. It really works. I bought a second one so my dolls can signal to each other.

I love Felicity's party treats. The little shepherdess is cute and detailed. The glass salvers are heavy, the cake, marzipan strawberries, and candied lemon and orange slices are super cute.

My favorite of the historical nightgowns. The nightgown is trimmed in lace and the leather mules are soft. My favorite is the darling lappet cap with its ruffles. it makes Felicity's sweet face stand out.

The muff is a beautiful eggshell satin and has sweet embroidery that always reminds me of blueberries. The leather mitts are very soft. The pattens are historical accurate and a welcome addition.

My favorite of the meet outfit by far. The is perfectly period accurate and even the same fabric as that used in Williamsburg. Mine is made in West Germany and the pattern is lined up perfectly.

Felicity may have my favorite meet accessories. The little brocade purse is darling, the hanky is trimmed with dainty lace, the coral beads are sweet, the bit coin is perfect. The garters say "wove with love for Lissie". The round eared cap also works with her school outfit.

This is so well made. The laced jacket has grommets to thread the silky cord through. The petticoat is very rich looking. The mob cap is cute. All around a fantastic outfit.

I have the PC version. The wool is soft and drapes well. The red color is beautiful. I love the way the hood comes together in a little circle at the back.

My daughter and I each have the original wooden violin. She got hers when the set came out and I picked mine up NRFB on eBay a few years ago. The violin is very well made and looks just like a real one. The rosin is real as well and the bow has real hair. I love this set and use it for all of my dolls. The music books are a great extra.

Coconut is so sweet. I have two. I have the first one without the magnet which came with the wicker dog bed, bone, and bag of crunchies and then a first magnet version one that looks the same except for the magnet. I got her so I could buy the various sets that had things she could hold.

I love this coat! The frog closures really work and the coat is a lovely rich purple color. The hat is cute as well. I use it for my custom Nellie when she joins Samantha.
