I thought I ought to quickly get my blog back to all things vintage and pretty after yesterdays interruption! Thank you to all for your thoughts on the mystery object. I am going with the suggestions of Nancy, Peggy, Kristy and Mary, that it is an old fashioned chest drain. Not a nice thought really and I am so glad that medical advances have been made!
Corners of my home.
How pretty!!!
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely day!

This is more like the you we know!! But I was fascinated by the bottles and possibilities.
ReplyDeleteThat reminds me, I have 4 boxes of old bottles in the store waiting to be looked at and hopefully sold somewhere. Not sure what there is, although I do remember there are a few Bovril bottles.

Yes that does look more like you. I was at the thrift again today, somebody please stop me, or not.

ReplyDeleteI've met a new friend through your blog - she's also from Torquay and has just moved to North Carolina from Massachusetts - we are meeting for lunch and vintage shopping on Thursday - I'm so excited. Will get some pics to post later.
Meanwhile, I've tagged you - please visit my blog.
Yes that's what we like to see, but the other post was very interesting and I had a laugh following all the comments :))

Hi Nikki! I just clicked on your link and voila! You are back! I have caught up on your posts and have to tell you that you are brilliant and so inspiring! Like you, I sew and make tote bags, pillows and other things. Years ago I made dolls and just last week told myself that I am going to do that again. Your pictures gave me just that inspiration! I am going to be giving away something I made here in the next few weeks. So, check back with me and pass it along.....smiles to you! Glad you had a wonderful time this summer! Blessings across the miles, Becky
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous!

ReplyDeleteAre those little, black, stuffed shoes cute or what?! Are they actual children's shoes stuffed with a fabric tube topped with flowers?
ReplyDeleteA chest drain?? Eeewwww.
Hi Wanda,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment - yes, those are real baby shoes! They are stuffed with pink silk and topped with vintage ribbon flowers to use as a pin cushion. They actually came from a girl in the States.
Niki
So many lovely things. It's really inspirating coming in to your place.
