Yesterday I made a trip to my local quilt shop and each time I go I always stop at my 'favourite' op shop which is all of 20m away from the quilt shop. Always a great outing.
This particular Op shop (st. vinnies) ticks the boxes for me because:
- the staff are delightful
- the prices are the prices things should be in a thrift shop
- they regularly have vintage sheets, tea towels, doilies etc (which a lovely volunteer often seems to be 'tidying' up. So cute and always in for a chat)
So for today's show and share here is my stash collected yesterday: 4
unwashed souvenior linen teatowels; an
unused vintage tablecloth; a fabbo granny square afghan using the best colour combo (as a good friend of mine would say 'it's so wrong, it's right!!) ; some retro glasses and a retro small jug thingy (unsure what it is for ? salad dressing)
What a great day!
On a recent (very, very rare) trip to Melbourne, my Husband and I were walking to Brunswick street and en route there were some handmade shops and markets. Below is a photo of a shop which stocked pretty much upcycled handmade items. Some great ideas in there.
Have a great weekend. Brisbane seems to be heading for a very wet one!!!
