Sweet Serendipity

I was certainly blessed with some amazing finds this week. Of course there were doilies.
 I love that mens shirt and tie so much it features twice lol.
The stuff above was from a garage sale. Vintage bed covers and curtains and that HUGE bag chock full of amazing old linens. I just don't have time and space to share them all individually. I was in vintage linen heaven as I didn't check the contents until I got home.
This tin and contents cost me $1. I thought the cap was an old wedding cap but My Mum thinks it is just a fancy night cap. Either way it is exquisite!
Brand New shoes from the oppy for my hard to fit wide feet. Bargain!!!
Gorgeous vintage bedspreads. the larger pic is the true colour.

And lastly a beautiful print in a vintage frame. I love, love, love this! sorry there is so much reflection.the print has dropped within the frame so will have to fix it.



I was thinking I might have to show  a bit more restraint after this week's haul but then I found out my sister from Victoria will be over and we are planning a giant op shopping fest so I'm pretty sure there will be plenty to share next week :)

    1. I am hoping my favourite places won't disappoint now she is travelling all this way. She is bringing empty bags with her so I hope we can fill them ;) It will be fun I'm sure.

    1. The bird tray has a little damage but I love it and it's nothing a little wood glue won't fix. AND it was only $1 anyway :)

    1. Yes that's just how I did it :) One lovely piece at a time. I'm sure it took around an hour. Some of the laces were so fragile and delicate I am sure they were more antique than vintage.
