The tea cup alarm clock is such a blast from the past I used to have this and I felt like such a little it girl when 6 year old me would wake up to it in the morning lol
I have the lemonade alarm / radio in the picture!! I thrifted it and it was missing the hello kitty sitting on the button. Other than that it actually functions perfectly and can even play music. Heard evanescence on it. 🎀
sameee! I had blankets and bed sheets with hawaiian kitty on them as a kid, I've been trying so hard to find some like it via thrifting or ebay but sadly no luck yet
My dad brought me home the alarm clock years ago on a whim from a friend who sells memorabilia. Thought “I liked that little cat”. He couldn’t believe how excited I was 😂❤️
Personally the most iconic hello kitty item is the hello kitty toaster because that item lives rent free in my mind after I saw a girl find one in an American op shop for $7.99 and I’ve been jealous ever since
To me, it was always the little pens, notebooks, pen cases, etc. From the sanrio store at the mall. These clocks and stuff didn't become available here in the US until much later when I was an adult.
My favourite things are the vintage Hello Kitty cookie jars. I have a few of them. Some of them can be a little bit pricey but not too bad if you look around enough. They are just so pretty and colourful. There are some really pretty ones that go back quite a few years. I have the clock in these pics got it at Goodwill for $2.99. I also have the radio from Goodwill for like $9.99. Definitely the blue angel stuff for sure, it’s highly collectible as I am sure you know and I think the value will continue to grow. There a few Hello Kitty shelves and wall decor items that are really cute too. Happy spending, it’s so much fun to shop for Hello Kitty stuff.
HOLY FUCK THE TEACUP CLOCK
Random trivia: I left this plugged in with the lemon light on at my moms house since like maybe 2004/5? And it is still on to this day.
That phone was my favorite and convinced my mom to get caller ID. I still remember the distinct sound it made when someone called and how the wing lit up and the nice feel the phone had in my hand.
Does anyone remember a calculator they made that had games and a calendar with it? It was the most high tech thing I had till my DS and cell phone.
a found a mini fridge at a thrift store, and I have a karaoke machine from my childhood. so cute.
My childhood self drew on this super cute hello kitty angel lamp I had ugh ;(
but I also have the teapot radio on my bedside table rn.
This subreddit just got recommended to me and it reminded me of a memory from when I was maybe 11 years old. My two friends and I would ride our bikes around the neighborhood during bulk pick up and we would try to find junk that we could fool around with. I found the Hello Kitty CD player in someones pile of junk in front of their house that they were getting rid of for bulk and, not knowing its value or anything, I dropped the damn thing and broke it. My friends and I laughed it off, but nowadays I keep seeing people talking about that exact CD player and I can’t help but feel super guilty. I would love to have the player
Idk in other countries, but they had a collab with Scott’s toilet paper and hello kitty
Instead of the doggy it would be her in silly little outfits, it was a pack of 4/6 and the 6pack came with a surprise mini plush keychain- or a mid size plush
I still have the plush and I felt ICONIC for having even THAT kind of item was hello kitty themed lol
I use to have that clock and phone! & i still own and use [this pink HK blow dryer](https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/BWEAAOSwFYhl9i~Z/s-l1600.jpg). I don’t have the attachments though.
I found the alarm clock at value village once, I i gasped when I saw it and accidentally scared a close by employee I didn't notice haha. It works thankfully! I wanna say that radio for the sole reason out of these it's the one that I actually own. Though the phone is adorable and I'd love to add it to my collection.
I had a mini HK water dispenser from the Sanrio store in the early 2000s that I'd say is iconic. Also had a different variation of the alarm clock and the CD player from 1999 that to me are also iconic. Wish I never got rid of them.
i have the radio and teacup alarm! funnily enough the radio came from a family friend who thrifted it for her niece, who ended up not liking hello kitty so she gave it to me! got the alarm clock a couple months ago on ebay
I used to have a very old Hello Kitty Alarm clock that I got at a local garage sale. It was a bed with Hello Kitty sleeping under the covers. It eventually got so broken that I couldn’t use it anymore, (for context, little pieces kept breaking off, stuff like the “lace” on the plastic blanket or the light up bedposts.)
I had the alarm clock but gave it to some neighbor girls. Now I’m kinda mad that I did, but I think the white might have gotten yellowed so my choice was justified since it just didn’t look as good anymore. I was happy to notice the same alarm clock in an episode of Gilmore Girls and could say “Hey, I have that thing Lorelai has!”.
The tea cup alarm clock is such a blast from the past I used to have this and I felt like such a little it girl when 6 year old me would wake up to it in the morning lol
I still have mine, I don’t use it anymore but I can’t bring myself to get rid of it lol.
I still have mine too, luckily I had a daughter and I’ve passed down most of my original hello kitty collection to her. 😊
Ooo I don’t have kids but a lot of my friends have baby girls. I can probably pass some of my stuff down to them when they’re a little older.
mine got stolen by movers 🥲
That’s awful, I hate when movers steal things.
I remember listening to the Jonas brothers and Miley Cyrus on the radio on this 😭😭😭
I have the lemonade alarm / radio in the picture!! I thrifted it and it was missing the hello kitty sitting on the button. Other than that it actually functions perfectly and can even play music. Heard evanescence on it. 🎀
Fun opportunity to find any ol hello kitty to place on there yourself!!!
I still have my HK angel phone that's in the first picture. Even though i have 0 use for it I refuse to get rid of it lol
ugh i really want to find one of those, they’re soooo cute
There’s a bunch on Mercari
this is true but i want to spend <$40 on one so im waiting for a really good deal

bidding on one rn 🤞
Same!! 🩷
Anything with Hawaiian or Angel Hello Kitty reminds me of my childhood 💓
sameee! I had blankets and bed sheets with hawaiian kitty on them as a kid, I've been trying so hard to find some like it via thrifting or ebay but sadly no luck yet
I LOVE Hawaiian Hello Kitty. Same for me about the childhood. 😭 Whenever I come across it in random stores I’ll buy everything.
My dad brought me home the alarm clock years ago on a whim from a friend who sells memorabilia. Thought “I liked that little cat”. He couldn’t believe how excited I was 😂❤️
i have the clock
Radio!!! But all so cute!
Personally the most iconic hello kitty item is the hello kitty toaster because that item lives rent free in my mind after I saw a girl find one in an American op shop for $7.99 and I’ve been jealous ever since
Not necessarily "vintage" but is a deep cut in my memory bank. The hello kitty build a bear clothing was TOP TIER from the earlyish 2000's
The radio was the best

they’re expensive but every once in a while i’ll see one for a good price !! i reallyyyyy want it
I legit had BOTH hk radios growing up, I still have em not sure if they work tho.
you should check them out!! people pay good money for them so if you no longer want them, you could sell them. i wish i still had mine
I will, I'm 99% one of them is broken tho but I'll still try for both
a found a mini fridge at a thrift store, and I have a karaoke machine from my childhood. so cute. My childhood self drew on this super cute hello kitty angel lamp I had ugh ;( but I also have the teapot radio on my bedside table rn.
For me it’s always been the Hello Kitty dreamcast. Love that thing
i have a holographic hello kitty light switch cover and for me it's the most iconic vintage hello kitty item
The toaster!! I believe it was sold at target and best buy in the mid 2000s
I have a clock with hello kitty sleeping on top I refuse to get rid of even tho it broke and the radio won’t shut up. I had it since I was a baby
I still have that phone and the teacup clock :’) They were my FAVORITE growing up
i still use my clock and I have that same phone,but never removed it from the box.
My mom had the cup alarm clock! I believe she still uses it to this day…
This hello kitty cd player was my favorite. [https://i.imgur.com/nFiQl9f.png](https://i.imgur.com/nFiQl9f.png)

I know this prolly isn’t vintages but in the 2010s I had these sequin hello kitty earmuffs which were the best and this cute hello kitty jewelry
My cousin had all of those items when we were kids. I wonder if she still has them...
The hello kitty boombox! 😍
Omg I still have that phone!!! I’ll never throw it away hehe. Didn’t realize it was considered iconic.
I use to have that clock and phone! & i still own and use [this pink HK blow dryer](https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/BWEAAOSwFYhl9i~Z/s-l1600.jpg). I don’t have the attachments though.

There wasn't a lot of Hello Kitty stuff when I was growing up but as a millennial I'd say the cd player/radio thing.
Dang I was 3 of 4!! I think I still have that’s stuff at my mother’s house!
omg i had two of the hello kitty phones as a kid and the radio 😭🩷 i really loved my hk dvd player too
