Op-Shopped

A few goodies found this week...

An 8 piece Johnson set, $8, in a new to me design.

And a bit more Johnson, 50c a piece.


The softest crochet blanket, in the prettiest pastels, for 50c.




Wooden cotton spools, $1.50. 

The packing is getting serious as the move gets all the more closer, the kitchen cupboards are looking very bare, a vast change from this, the bookshelves are empty, and nearly every surface looks like the minimalist approach to decorating is being taken, in stark contrast to the usual style.

Happy thrifting to you in the coming week. x

  15. Oh wow, do you know I saw a crocket blanket almost identical to that in a fancy home-ware shop the other week, they wanted almost $300 for it- needless to say I didn't buy it! lol.
