VINTAGE STUFF

Giving the office a tidy today these were in a bag not opened [I have been a bit busy ] from a shopping trip a week or so ago


a crocheted square I am off to the fabric stash now to find some nice vintage or vintage style fabric to make a cosy cushion, the tea cosies I may sell or use as props for photos or to hire. Of course I will get out some wool and sadly knit a sqaure because that's all I can do or a long oblong for scarf, the plates are so  50's  with very soft delicate colours

DISHY PHIL SPENCER


BE STILL MY BEATING HEART

Our lock up is in the neighboring town and after dropping off a few hire items, I walked into town to rummage in the charity shops, Mr Phil Spencer was filming I presume for Location Location although no Kirsty very handsome and very sweet with everyone who asked for an autograph [not me !] it brightened up a rather grey dull day here in rainy Manchester.

A good day at the charity shops

ship ahoy!


This teapot should polish up ok, a champagne saucer and cool swan sherry glass all for a £1 [proceeds to local bowling club]


Pyrex bowl and 70;s drinking glass

Birdcage I think I will make a little bird to swing inside

biscuits barrels

All this for the total of £12.00 it's good for the soul
