Today we had the coldest morning since last winter, it was so cold I regretted not taking my gloves. We still braved it to a car boot sale, it turned out to be a great decision as we came back with a decent amount of goodies.
A mid century tile to serve as a place mat for hot dishes and a great orange coffee pot. I thought it looked good next to my geranium plant and vintage apple ice bucket but it ended up on the staircase window of which more soon, this space is getting a face lift. Price £5 for both.
This beautiful Deco lamp shade will go perfectly in our home, either in the entry hall or in our living room, still haven’t decided, £10.
Two vintage serving bowls, just the look I was after, not the greatest of conditions but at 40p for both I won’t complain. They will look great with the silver plated serving spoons I got last time, especially when used on a balmy evening in the garden…next year.
A massive addition to our Ladybird book collection at £1 a pop, we got 10 books from 1960s.
Lots more to share: good reads, knitting, a classic pie and a tea party. Stay tuned. I also quit my job and went freelance, first project starts tomorrow, first week without my baby boy, scary and exciting.
Oh wow, congrats! Hope the job goes well.
Love everything you bought, especially the tile!

Nice finds , especially bowls and book .
Good luck with freelancing you brave soul:)
Great finds. I’ve had my eye on red coffee pots like that on eBay, but they seem to go for quite a lot – so well done on finding one so cheap!
Caroline: Thank you. Yes, the tile is brilliant!
Ola: thank you, it was a tough week.
Jessica: I was really happy when I saw it, ebay tends to be the expensive shop nowadays.
good job indeed1!!
