Oh deary me, I really have let this old blog of mine slip,
haven’t I ?!
I was a bit unsure whether to start up this blog again
by only blogging about ‘recent’ happenings, or to carry on first with the blogs I
forgot to post…. So, I’ve decided to mix ‘em- One old, one new- well, it sounds like a
good ideal to me!
So let’s start with some of my purchases from the merry
month of May, shall we…
A load of fine crochet cotton- perfect of a load of projects I have planned....
Little lacy gloves... way cheaper than crocheting your own!
Pretty photos of perfect people....
Collars, glorious collars...
The little white one still has its price label, too...
A pair of 1920s shoes for £2- they fit perfectly as well....
A dinky little crepe camisole- and yes, it is in dire need of a press...
A Thetford Pulp-ware baby bath and a 1950/60s changing mat ( 'cause I really need these!)...
A gorgeous 30s hat and leather hatbox....
Another parachute panel and some very pretty 30s (?) fabric....
... And...
Quite possibly my favourite purchase of the day. Such a wonderful portrait from 1945. I'm just a tad envious of he lovely jacket !
All I need to do now is find a little bit of wall space to hang he... sounds simple, but you should see my walls !
Quite the haul, eh?
Well, that is enough of me showing off for now. I'm going to try my hardest to keep this blog up and running- I've certainly got a lot to catch up on - new jumper, dressmaking, RAF Friday's, some events and more !
TTFN,
Tupps xxx
