Love this concrete piece which I bought from Haven & Space (which I posted on yesterday). It only cost $5.95 and it weighed a tonne!
This lovely thing I found lurking in my Dads shed. There was no way I could fit it in, so when Mum and Dad visit soon, they are going to bring these. There is two of them.
This was another beauty I found in the shed. It is coming with Mum and Dad too. I think Dad is happy to be getting rid of these things from his shed!!
Some lovely fabrics in my new colour palette I bought from Ikea. The bottom fabric was given to me by my Auntie. Oh, and my Uncle is tracking down a black Bakelite phone for me from one of his many Antique contacts…yay! =0)
This beautiful old replica of a sepia botanical print on canvas was picked up at Haven & Space also and was just $14.95. Oh how I just love this store. At present it is hanging in our Guest room while I decide on its permanent position.
This little silver candlestick, which reminds me of mercury glass I bought from Ikea. I wish I had got one of each height they had, but I wouldn’t have been able to get them all back. I also bought home some wrapping paper, ribbon, a lovely Orchid stem, some little blue and white vases, lantern and clothes and shoes…of course, and just think – I carried all this home in a carry on bag!
Maybe when Mum and Dad come soon I will get them to pick up the things I couldn’t fit it. Now that’s an idea.

All gorgeous things and lovely finds. I cannot pick a favorite but I do love the botanical print so much and also like the very heavy pineapple objet you show!

What wonderful stuff!! Was so disappointed that it wasn’t on the same continent! Someday I will have to make it there when my traveling friends settle back down..down under!
Call me weird, but my favorite is the concrete piece. I love the color and the shape.
Hi Ness,
