op-shopping time.






a collection of my op-shop finds from the past couple of weeks..
a new Johnson design.
Pyrex
a few more sheets for the stash
a Cath Kidston-inspired top
and these very retro flower arranging and table setting cards. with instructions to create your very own fruit wall screen or maybe a couple of violet nosegays for your next dinner party (these made me think of you Kylie).

  7. Great finds, especially the spotty pyrex- i have the yellow and the green, still looking for the blue and the red, they are rarities in the oppies these days. What on earth is a nosegay? mel x

  8. You are the queen of 'thrift' Zara. I did a spot of thrifting in my lunch hours last week. I picked up a few little treasures which I must share one day. Happy Tuesday x

  12. I have a yellow spotty Pyrex bowl like Mel, and it always makes me happy when I see it. Yor blue is very cheery too. A fruit wall screen? I'd like to see one of those! Sweet you thought of me when you saw the violet nosegay in Judy's book. I'd love you to make some of her arrangements and show them off on your blog Zara. How about it? x
