Fabulous Finds

Silver cutlery, at 10c a piece how could I not.

This very large two-piece steamer, for $16 it was a bit more than I'd have liked to pay, but a steamer had been on the list for a while, and this English one was perfect.


Another suitcase added to the collection brings the total to four, $5 for this pretty blue one.

And finally, why it pays to have a quick look through the 'Dog blanket' box that most Oppies have. A great condition Country Road beach towel for $1 and a woollen blanket with only a small hole for $2.50



Happy Op-shopping for the week ahead. x

  9. I always look through the dog blanket box and have found lovely old quilts, knitted blankets and quilt covers. Some great finds there, and very practical ones too. That steamer reminds me of my Nanna's old one.
