Hello!
I had decided not to opshop so much anymore because my house was
filling up with too much stuff and it was making my head spin with panic at the
sight of all these things all around me. But then, I keep looking at other
people’s blogs and the gorgeous things they find in charity shops, and, well you know....so I looks
like I am losing the battle…. So, this morning I loaded the 3 kids at 8am in
the car and off we went to town to visit one of my favourite opshops, which
happens to open at 8.30 on Saturdays. We were 10 minutes late, so I was a bit worried that all the
goodies would be gone already. As
it turned out, there was no one in the shop, and the first customers to arrive
after us were about 30 minutes behind us.
But then again, that didn’t make such a big difference, because there wasn’t
much to get excited about. I did
find a lovely cotton sheet, a retro sort of bark cloth blanket/cover(?), my
second retro one so I was rather pleased about that, and a couple of bits and
pieces for the kids. Yesterday I also
found this gorgeous top, I am so in love with it, I would like to wear it every
day, but maybe not…! over the last couple of months, i have also been collecting some lovely old mirrors to put on our big wall, i still need more, but small ones so i'll just be patient until i find the right ones. i love the look for them on the wall. and the bird cages, that's a work in progress...
That’s it really. but there will be many many more cool finds at her library adventures's flea market finds on sunday.
Have a good weekend

I love your collection of mirrors. They are so hard to come by in Brisbane. And the bird freak in me is wondering what you have planned with birdcages!
ReplyDeleteThe mirrors look amazing with all the different shapes. Love! xx
ReplyDeleteI just found your lovely blog via Her Library Adventures. All of your finds were great, but I just love your mirror wall!
