Corner of the Garden Room.



   
 
 This WAS going to be a long post about vintage shopping...but just couldn't make it happen this week, however l still wanted to post.....Luckily l managed to take some pics earlier in the week.
l set up a corner of the garden room with some of my favourite recent vintage finds.
 
The sweet ladies at the Friday opshop insisted on GIVING me this lovely old bookmark....it was my favourite find:-))
 
 
Forgot l even had this cane basket.....it  usually sits in a cupboard... storing balls of wool. 
 
 
Colourful old enamel butterfly brooch....another to add to the growing pile l already have. 
 
 
 
  

 
Cups and saucers always remind me of visits to my Aunty Mary. (Mums' sister). Tea at her house is ALWAYS served complete with cup, saucer and matching cake plate on a clean tablecloth. Mum, Sis and l get in a panic that we might spill our tea, or worse chip or break something. Clumsiness is rife in our family, so it's not a good mix :-))   
 
 
Also found some vintage millinery flowers....pink roses, who could resist.
 Aqua flower friendly jar's from  Typo.  $3.95 each.

 
Interesting old tea cup. The hook on the back allows it to be hung flat against a wall....kinda funny too:-))
 
 
 
Last of all is this bejewelled "genie" jar.

Hope you have a wonderful weekend. Thanks for popping in here.....
 
Til next time,

    Bron, color color vibrant beautiful colors is always present in your posts!! Your color choices are so reminiscent of the coastal colors! I love it!!

    I love your cups and saucers. Recently I bought two beautiful cups and saucers. I want to purchase more so that I can have lovely pieces for serving my sisters, mom, and friends. It's such a wonderful feeling to have pretty things at the table.

    I love your new finds at the opshop. How lovely for the ladies to give you a bookmark. And such a beautiful bookmark at that!

    Your basket color is beautiful. It's too pretty not to keep out.

    And, last, I LOVE the "half a cup"!! Too funny!!! xoxo

Wishing you a wonderful week ahead.
