Saturday treasure

I love saturdays!! Especially when good treasure is found like this incredible 70s teacup set, complete with all 6 saucers and side plates for £1, What a treat...

And Noahs ark tapestry bag?? I think so!

A 50p shire's horse tray and vintage motor placemats...

And without doubt my favourite...a silver jubilee linen wallhanging, with box, what an absolute delight!

Jumbles are back

No saturday morning would be quite complete without discovering 20p puppets and courdroy laura ashley dresses at a jumble sale. And to finish a slice of homemade ginger cake listening to all th treasures the old ladies found. Perfect.

A treat

I have finally visited the Rosey Lea Tea Room in Bishops Stortford and it was most definitely a treat. Super cosy and the best scone I think I have ever had.

Organising

Finally trying to organise the studio and gather the fabrics that I have been collecting only to discover homemade treats such as this log cabin sewing tidy and autumn leaf needle case that my nan once made. Distracting but inspiring.

cornwall car boots

On the way back from sunny cornwall we saw the best sign you could hope for "CAR BOOT SALE" so off we went on a detour. With only £2 pocket money each I bought this hat brooch and coronation mug with 50p to spare.

These guys unfortunately didn't come with me, the sellers asked me why, I simply said their faces are quite scary.

I'm back

Where has the year gone??!? I am afraid I got a little distracted and left poor Jolly and Hodie to hibernate but I am back and with many things to post about to catch up on. I thought I best start with my recent trip to Cornwall. I shared a room with my lovely niece Lily and above is our joint cupboard, I enjoyed waking up to this. Another one of my most favourite things is model villages. Most importantly the model village of Polperro as seen below. The village was created around 30 years ago and rebuilt after floods in 1993 for all to enjoy. A hidden gem and with a puppet tour that did not dissapoint (who knew they could make a pupper with a pottery wheel look so real?!)

And what British summertime would be complete without sandcastle towers and rock.

Whilst in Cornwall my lovely Lily became the new model for the new collection which I shall be posting about very soon. Thank you for coming back, I WILL have plenty of fun things to share.
