Bargain bits & bobs.



The bargain tables' special this past week- 'Bits & bobs- 10 for 20c'. How could I resist these saucers and side plates... pastels for the kitchen dresser and a couple of pretty floral Johnson of Australia designs.





Adding to the bargains picked up at the Salvation Army Store is this stash of cutlery purchased for 10c a piece, coming in at a grand total of $4.40... I couldn't quiet believe my luck.

  1. Love it Zara, especially the pink plate in the first photo. My brother and I had that children's cutlery with the seals on it when we were little...it makes me wonder what happened to it. I had completely forgotten about it until I saw your photos :)

  2. Lots of pretty plates there - aren't the pink roses glorious? You did well to pick up such bargain priced cutlery - it is often quite pricey. Have fun with your new stuff!

  5. My brother and sister (twins) had that seal cutlery too. I think it was a christening present...wonder if my Mum's still got it. I remember being a bit jealous as a kid.

  8. oh..i love the rose plates best..but maybe i'm a tad biased cause i have a dinner set just the same but with red/burgundy roses..i picked it up years ago for $8..before they became collectable.. i haven't seen the seal cutlery before..it's very cute..

  17. Marvellous haul there, Missy! You jolted one of those long buried memories with the seal spoon and cutlery. We had them when we were little. Haven't thought of them in years. Thanks for the lovely warm nostalgia hit!
