I LOVE reading other people’s blogs – I am not ashamed to
admit that I get a warm fuzzy feeling inside when I discover a ‘new favourite’
blog (it happens at least once a week!). I am currently following around sixty
blogs – mainly with a thrifty / vintage / crafty / homewares theme, and I get
so much inspiration from them all. I have a folder on my computer simply called
‘craft’, and it’s overflowing with lovely little projects which I really do
need to start...I just don’t have any time left over from all the time spent
reading OTHER PEOPLE’S blogs!
After spending all afternoon on my laptop stalking getting
inspiration, I was feeling in the mood to head to the charity shops. My sister
came over for the day and we headed off to the nearest town with our meagre
amount of pennies (end of the month blues!).
The first spot I had was this cute patchwork style double duvet
cover in some of my favourite colours – pastel minty green and pretty pale
pink. I adore all of the different patterns – stripes, spots and florals. Sadly
my boyfriend is just adamant that he won’t succumb to a pink palace, so I knew
I couldn’t persuade him to actually use it in our bedroom...BUT...I have big plans
for the material. Expect to see it in a blog post coming your way soon!
At last, something floral that’s easy to sneak in! Just 49p
for this bargain book.
Up next I picked up this cutesy vintage goose jar in powdery blue for just 99p!
Finally a little cameo brooch to add to my collection – I
popped it onto this wicker heart just to take a picture but I really like it! I
think it will stay there for now.
Have you had any vintage finds this week?
I would love to find a new favourite blog – why not leave me
a link to yours?
Until next time,
