Oh no ! Not more old tat…

 
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,
