Shabby Chic Thread?

I had a good day thrifting today.Picked up a boxed set of vintage desert fork with different coloured handles (just like Cath Kidston!),a couple of pillowcases,8 Jasmine Wood Ware plates and a snowflake divided Pyrex casserole all for the princely some of £4!! I'll post some photos tomorrow when they've all had a clean.

Do you go out with the specific purpose of thrifting or are you just out shopping generally and just happen to bump into a thrift shop;) nice finds, by the way.

ooh see now i can see that trolley piled with freshly washed folded towels in pastel colours on the bottom shelf, a little basket of bubble baths and a little pile of rolled up face cloths with a wrapped up soap on top on the top shelf. lol can you tell im itching for one of those trolleys!! :rotfl:

i think we all need one in our homes !!!

what really upsets me is my sister has a lovely table in her garden with the barley twist legs.. and its soooo wreaked. it has some pot plants on it but really it needs me to take it in hand and look after it...but shes having none of it !!!

whats everyone up to today?? Im going to give the sewing machine table yet another coat of paint, sort more stuff out for another car boot sale and then bake for the rest of the day (i only have 2 out of the 4 kids as 2 are now staying at family for the rest of the holidays so i stand a chance of actually getting something done!) :rotfl:
