Goody Goodies

Hello, how are you? I hope you are having a good weekend. The damp, greyness has returned to the UK with a vengeance!

I've done quite well at the charity shops and car boot this week. At the beginning of the week I found a mid century foot stool in great condition for £2! Then on Friday I found some really old shelves for £5, I haven't been able to photograph them yet but I will when things brighten up a bit.

Also from the charity shop I found a set of 4 Pyrex cups and saucers for £1.30....


The following goodies were found at the boot sale this morning...



An old first aid tin...



Vintage thread spools and buttons, I love the card on the buttons...



An old pin tin that I bought without looking inside. When I got home I realised it was full of old needle packages some from the 1930's...



Pinking shears. The box says 'Inseparable from your hand as your friend'... 



This sweet little dish...



A pair of candlesticks...



and two glass jars.

As usual for more thrifty finds pop round to Sophies.
Thanks for stopping by, take care x
