That’s so cute! I still mourn my fabric-cut-out wall decoration of Casey Junior (the circus train from Dumbo) that I had when I was a little kid. I never let my mom put it up on the wall and insisted on sleeping with it in the bed with me for years.

I lost it and several other childhood plushies (RIP Shivery the stuffed lobster and Moosel from the Wuzzles) the first time I moved apartments as an adult.

I had watched dumbo decades ago n actually forgot about Casey! Didn’t even realise! I just looked him up, n noticed he’s adorable! He’s a lot like Linus, the brave locomotive!

Dam it, gotta add him to the list now lol

Thanks elspeth, u did me in now! Hahahahaha

Awwww! It’s ironic u say that! I’ve lost 95% of the things I came to nyc with. Somehow, the Garfield n one butterfly pillow I had growing up survived. They’ll b coming downstairs with me. I will take another pic of the bed fully dressed. It looks sooooo luxurious now! lol I’m very proud of it! I wasn’t sure whether to get a twin or a full, but now I’m glad I did. It’s roomy enough so I don’t feel like I’m falling off, but doesn’t take up too much more space. I I’ll get these covers all to myself….and cats, eventually lol

I got the full set off eBay. It’s from pottery barn. It’s actually for kids, but it works for all ages. Awww Leo says hi he’s rubbing on me.

I would have LOVED to see that casey junior cutout. It won’t b quite the same, but maybe u can find a replacement? I’m planning to have a cats/trains/retro vibe about the place when I’m setup.
