A few more 'treasures' collected this morning.
There is an underlying kitsch travel souvenior theme (just to warn you).
Aussie linen teatowel. Apparently it is a good idea to soak these beauties in salt water before washing to help 'hold the colour'. |
(4) cross stitched placemats. I have a few different things in mind for these. |
As embarrassing as it is, I cannot go past these hand knitted toys. This one is in absolute mint condition. I have a strong feeling that Ned Kelly (AKA Charlie) is going to take a liking to this one. |
This tablecloth is a gift for a friend who loves anything with hibiscus flowers on it. |
Finally, I have added to our coathanger collection and for 50c I could not pass on these souvenior Florida coasters. |
That's a fab haul ... you have a knack, as does Ope Shope Hope and Curbside Style - you girls have me shaking my head in awe!
ReplyDeleteI went to an Op Shop today and just gave them stuff. Maybe I'm at the wrong Op Shop ... I'll get out a bit more.
Love the blue in the first tea towel.
Thanks MMMC, sometimes you have to d-i-g around and under things. I am one teatowel away from making a quilt out of 'australiania' linen teatowels.It is so wrong it is right!
ReplyDeleteI love Australiana tea towels. A quilt would look fabulous. xx
