Nifty Thrifty

This week I managed to do a little Charity Shop Shopping!!  One of my favourite pastimes, that I don't get nearly enough time to do.  I love trawling through the bric a brac. Found these lovely cups and plates for 'The Loft' this week, and the tins I will use for styling/decor.

My favourite secondhand shop also came up trumps!!
The frame will be used for a blackboard, and I will be covering the seat of the chair with some nice vintage fabric to pretty it up a little.
The lovely apron was a gift from my Mum.
Vintage tins and Sundae dishes, not sure its going to fit in my little ol' shed!! it's already bursting at the seams!!

    T&A: Yep the cups (and the rest of it for that matter) will certainly be heading down to the tearoom x

  4. Love what you are planning to do in the sail loft. I adore your taste. My husband and I are planning to rent one of the offices above you to start a new business of our own Should be from 1st April. We will hopefully be one of your first customers. Look forward to seeing your next instalment. June x
