florals, milk glass and bark cloth
the past couple of weeks has seen some rather good op-shopped goodies...
another still in its packet Brazilian sheet set. in a rather different design to those already in my collection ($2)
a silky bird scarf ($2)
two floral tablecloths ($2 each)
the softest flannelette sheet. this one went straight on the bed. I may as well get some use from it while the nights are still cool ($4)
fancy binding tape (50c a packet)
I almost squealed when I spotted this stack of milk glass at Vinnies. 7 little bowls and the pear dish for $5
when I first spied the label entitled 'retro fabrics' I must admit I was a bit nervous as to the price they'd attach to it, gosh was I happy when it was $3. inside were 2 sets of hand sewn curtains. one in the prettiest of bark cloths and the other a sunny retro print.
OMG....$3.....BARGAIN!! The pink bark cloth is gorgeous xxx
ReplyDeleteI love that pretty binding you found and the milk glassware...good shopping all around. Regards Kathy A, Brisbane

ReplyDeleteGreat finds Zara, love the milk glass, happy weekend! x
ReplyDeleteThe bird scarf is calling out to me! The thrifting angel has been shining down on you:)
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh Zara, that retro fabric is divine! I'm a bit jealous ;)
ReplyDeleteWow Zara - you seriously cleaned up! Awesome scores at awesome prices. I LOVE those milk glass dishes. Well done hun xx
ReplyDeleteDid you get to break open the retro package before you left the shop or was a lucky dip where you get what you're given? It was certainly worth it, either way, with that little glimpse of the sailboats.
ReplyDeleteWow well done, yep that pink barkcloth yummmmmy lots of loveliness. Have a great week end.
