  1. Beautiful Zara. Utterly.
    I can't believe you're drinking hot chocolate or having to dry your washing inside! It's still stinking hot here :(

  3. That hot choc looks soooo good. And lucky you with the rain. We've had a little here, but could do with a whole lot more. Love the pillowcases. Xx

  4. Aww, puss puss. Love those Fire King pieces in the first pic. I have one mug, just like that, that belonged to my Grandfather more than 15 years ago. I often drink my peppermint tea from it and think of him. I wonder if it was once a part of set and the one I have is the sole survivor? Oh, the little histories that items have that we will never know about.

  6. Beautiful images Zara. My mum has many of those Fire King pieces (thanks Christina ^^^) in the cupboard, I should perhaps pull them out and put on show. Wishing you a wonderful week.

  8. So much loveliness here! I found that exact milk glass vase just the other day, with two other pieces at 50 cents each and thought of you! It seems to be often passed over at the oppies ( obviously not everyone feels as passionate as we do!), love the sight of those vintage tablecloths in the window ( i have the one on the right two) and that pillowcase on the left is gorgeous. mel x

  11. Love the old Fire King in that colour. We still have one of these from my Mum's collection and it remains my husband's choice of coffee mug half a century later (I'm not kidding!).
    Sweet Tillie looks so very much at home in her vintage suitcase bed, especially with her chenille bedding. I swear every cat I have ever known adores chenille, it is like a magnet to them.
    Love your bedding, I want to curl up in that bed, it looks so cosy with the pretty vintage bed linen. So much nicer than today's "hospital-style" clinical shades in bed linen.
    Lucky you, we are still waiting for rain down here. It didn't arrive last week, maybe this week. x
