the op-shops are starting to fill their shelves with plenty of fresh stock now after the christmas/new year lull.
i've found a couple of floral sheets, some still in their original packaging which is always a bonus plus some pretty tea towels, table cloths and hand stitched linens.
the little Hanimex camera caught my eye for 50c. I will have to look into getting some film for it and trying it out.
the English-made fish moulds intrigued me. not sure what to do with them as yet.
have you had any luck at your local oppies of late?
I also picked the recipient of my doily dream catcher give-away and the winner is Leisa of vintage bird girl. if you like op-shopped treasures and vintage fashion you will love Leisa's stylish blog.
I hope to share another tutorial (and give-away) next month too.
How gorgeous are the moulds Zara.....I would have them on display on a shelf in the kitchen.They were probably used for a fish mousse xxxx
ReplyDeleteOh hooray!!! How very exciting! Thank you so much! I love your new old sheets. Aren't they so special when they are still in the original packaging. That embroidery is beautiful too. Xx
ReplyDeleteGreat finds Zara. I haven't been op-shopping (or shopping much at all) this year. I might have a peak next week.
ReplyDeleteLovely stuff, Zara.. I have 1 larger fish mould, we use it to make jelly... Jelly-fish 😉
ReplyDeletelove that little camera...great colour blue! x
ReplyDeleteMy Nana bought me a black version of exactly the same camera for my 12th birthday.
ReplyDeletegosh i remember getting one of those cameras for christmas as a kid...feeling old right about now.
ReplyDeleteLove those moulds! You found some great things!

My friend Julie has some fish moulds swimming in a staggered formation above her kitchen bench. Your linens reminded me of a stash I found whilst secretly culling toys in the girls room again. Time to get cracking on a few items of interest.
ReplyDeleteI love those blue flower prints from the first picture. Great finds!
ReplyDeleteGreat finds Zara. I haven't hit the op-shops for a while, I feel the need to now! I love those fish moulds, you could make a great wall display with them...firstly I thought in the kitchen but how about in your bathroom? Just a thought :) Have a lovely weekend x
ReplyDeleteGood pick ups. I go through stages and haven't been for awhile. You're tempting me to go.
ReplyDeleteSome great finds here, Zara. Yesterday I managed to find a Vermeer print for ten bucks - I was chuffed to bits with it! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat finds Zara. I was thinking Jelly fish too or some kind or retro mousse, salmon perhaps? xo
