More Nice Things

Yes, this is the second, in a mini-run of 'nice things' posts.
This can never be a bad thing, nice things are what makes life....well nice.

Being of a thrifty nature, please understand, that all my recent purchases/additions have been purchased for a very special price.
Today saw myself and the lovely Ms Beth Taylor visiting this Lovely Ladies
Vintage Sale.
I was very happy with my purchases, but on our way home, I was forced (in rather a harsh manner) to stop for yet more thrifty shopping, and guess what, I bought a little bit more.

So here are my treasures.


vintage doll heads, I have plans!!

eventually succumbed to the charity shop mug that fits in nicely with my current red and blue theme

more doll faces.....one of them is maybe slightly unnerving

great melamine storage box, doll head storage maybe?

vintage school cupboard with empty shelves...I love empty shelves :)
only £20

a printers tray (for me this time) and possibly awaiting a few of  these

vanity case with the most lovely, orange, satin interior

rather nice plastic pots, made in Germany

more heads....
rather a fantastic chair and only £5
my fave purchase

I also bought a most flabby wall shelf with 4 hooks.
This will be positioned, professionally, by Mr Betty when he has a few minutes to think (his words).
I am going lightly on him today, well, it is Fathers Day.

Thanks for reading and watch out for my shop update. 
If nothing goes wrong, like a spate of CBA, it should be done by the end of the week. x

Charity Shop Treasure (maybe)

Hello, just back from the charity shop and I actually found treasure, AND took some pics!!
Now, please don't think I just wander around taking pics of things for you, today I did a bit of tidying and then I was on till duty. We were quite busy due to a pound sale.
 I also had a very long and interesting chat with a stamp collector (can't think of its official title, something to do with phlem??). 
 Anyhows, on with my discoveries.

A large amount of Stockholm Leaping Deer....tempted!

I love this sort of thing, can anyone think of a use for it other than singles?

Pretty vintage china....tempted!

Nearly bought this. Vintage airline melamine, shame it is brown (and dirty).

and, I bought these little donkeys home.
Tonight I will mostly be eating pizza (naughty, lazy, but nice) and probably making pompoms....somebody stop me!!!
Thanks for reading. x
