Thrifting!

In the next village to ours, there is an old lady who lives in what was once a Public House. Everyday she sets a little table outside it with various pieces of old china. She then stands a sign next to it, hand written on a chalkboard 'Things For Sale'. If you stop to see what is on offer, she comes out of her home and invites you inside! Her living room is FULL of china and bric-a-brac that she sells in aid of Charity. Such a sweet lady and she works so hard.

Here is my collection of goodies that I purchased from her yesterday:

Four trios in gorgeous pastel colours with a slightly 50's kitsch style to the roses printed inside.

There was a black set too, but I left those behind.

These wonderfully romantic lustreware Victorian cups. The gold lettering says ' Love the Giver', 'Remember Me' and 'Think of Me'. All so shabby chic in style, I love them.

A collection of small pressed glass creamers....perfect with tea lights in.

And this soft green chamber pot - NOT for the obvious use!! But for my pink Hyacinth bulbs!

I have placed this on my cupboard in the living room.

Here are my latest crafted items too....the Springtime colours seem to fit with my thrifty finds...
