I shouldn't say this, but rolling pins! I only have 30 or so! I am running out of room here so my list has shortened.

At one stage milk glass in Op shops was as plentiful as jam jars, but not anymore.<br />I collect Liberty prints too (since 1988!) but it has always been as rare as hen's teeth in the op shops. Just recently I found a size 18 shirt-dress in Liberty Tana Lawn fabric, no signs of wear, and will make something for Ivy this Summer.<br />I have almost crossed all off my wish list (one advantage of my advanced years!), being a church pew, a bow-front china cabinet, full collection of Cornishware in the caramel & white stripe design, a treadle sewing machine, and an Arabia 'Honey Bee' design honey pot. I still cannot walk by a bargain in vintage cotton sheets or soft woollen blankets, they are so addictive!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02241618425307492209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7030861504339238132.post-51496111679378741142014-08-28T11:19:12.459+09:302014-08-28T11:19:12.459+09:30I'm a Liberty collector, hoping one day to mak...I'm a Liberty collector, hoping one day to make a quilt. I get a feeling when I'm nearing an op shop, I seem to be able to feel when there is something great waiting for me to find it. I have well over 20 now. http://plainjanecreations.blogspot.com.au/search/label/Liberty%20shirts <br /><br />I do also have a small milk glass pedestal cake plate, another great thrifty find. The joy of the chase is addictive. I would love a church pew one day if I come across a small one. Have fun!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03229403335314406390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7030861504339238132.post-27436033747787790472014-08-28T07:08:12.334+09:302014-08-28T07:08:12.334+09:30I am a collector of vintage sheets although I do f...I am a collector of vintage sheets although I do find them getting quite expensive now so unless it really appeals to me I don't buy it.

I might eventually write about it too (thank you for the idea), but a quick list would include vintage flat sheets and pillowcases, vintage table linens, anything kitcheny with strawberries on it (that's my kitchen's "theme"), canning jars and old wooden chairs with seats that can be reupholstered.Jennifer Hayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04685253944514672324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7030861504339238132.post-34015627111575503362014-08-27T20:17:53.874+09:302014-08-27T20:17:53.874+09:30This is fun Zara!

Also, Little Golden books that we haven't already got.
