New to the WAC this week....

Lots of new goodies this week at the WAC. 


Large vintage crucifix
Lovely glassware
typewriters

This one dates from the Second World War and was used in the repatriation office. 
Lots of new old soft drink bottles.
Cheeky Mexican

Plane cigarette lighter
Groovy speed skates
Old boxes and crates
Enamel industrial light shade. Great mid size. 
I really like this card box. It has a Renaissance theme which appeals to me. I can imagine in my Arts student, Uni days, wanting this. 
Even the interior is lovely.

Silky Oak stool with nice heart detail on the ends.

The stool is sitting on an unusual sort of preparation table that has a shelf underneath. 



Cuckoo clock
Groovy orange step shelf, perfect to jazz up a kids room.
Lovely old jars with glass lids perfect for collections of shells, buttons or lollies.
And I am very brave...coming up below......
....lovely West German Floor Vases!! Three of the beauties. I know,why am I not keeping them ? Well you know I have so many (sigh) and my mother taught me it was rude not to share. I love the caramel colour of the middle one...I love it so much I could just lick it. ( Don't worry potential buyers, I haven't actually licked it. ) Hope you are all having a good week. The weather is starting to cool down here in Brissie and the days are just glorious.

  2. Laughs. Thoughts of you licking the merchandise ...

    I'm a big advocate for speed skates. Got a pair for my 10th birthday, and as I grew out of them Dad'd buy cheap footy boots from K-mart. He's saw off the tags and screw them onto the wheels and off I'd speed! If you had two pairs, we could 'tandem'.

  5. The skates bring back good memories and thankfully no broken bones. The 70's were good fun :)
    The old typewriters are fun too. Have a lovely weekend x

  8. Howdy! Do you know if they make any plugins to safeguard against
    hackers? I'm kinda paranoid about losing everything I've worked hard on.
    Any tips?

  9. Hi great blog! Does running a blog similar to this require a
    massive amount work? I have absolutely no knowledge of coding however I was hoping to start my own blog

    Many thanks!

    Thanks!

  12. Your site seems to be having some compatibilty problems in my internet explorer browser.
    The wording appears to be running off the webpage pretty bad.

    If you want you can e-mail me at: maxwellbillups@googlemail.
    com and I'll shoot you over a screen shot of the problem.

  13. I know this if off topic but I'm looking into starting my own blog and was wondering what all is needed to get set up? I'm assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty
    penny? I'm not very internet smart so I'm not
    100% positive. Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks

    using? I'm new to running a blog and have been thinking about using the Ning platform. Do you consider this is a good platform to start with?

When you have some free time, please be sure to get in touch with me at: maddisonbautista@t-online.de. Many thanks

  16. I was wondering if you ever thought of changing the page layout of your site?
    Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.

    But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could
    connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot
    of text for only having 1 or 2 pictures. Maybe you
    could space it out better?

  19. Hi there just wanted to give you a quick
    heads up. The words in your article seem to be running off the screen
    in Chrome. I'm not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with browser compatibility but I thought I'd post to let you know.
    The design look great though! Hope you get the problem
    resolved soon. Kudos

  20. Woah! I'm really loving the template/theme of this website. It's simple,
    yet effective. A lot of times it's very hard to get that "perfect balance" between superb usability and visual appeal. I must say you've done a awesome job
    with this. In addition, the blog loads very fast for me
    on Internet explorer. Outstanding Blog!

    if you knew where I could locate a captcha plugin for my comment form?

  22. With havin so much content and articles do you ever run
    into any issues of plagorism or copyright infringement?

    My site has a lot of unique content I've either created myself or outsourced but it looks like a lot of it is popping it up all over the internet without my agreement. Do you know any methods to help prevent content from being stolen? I'd certainly
    appreciate it.

  25. Wonderful blog! Do you have any tips and hints for aspiring writers?
    I'm planning to start my own website soon but I'm a little lost on everything.

    Would you propose starting with a free platform like Wordpress or
    go for a paid option? There are so many choices out there that I'm totally overwhelmed .. Any suggestions? Cheers!

  29. You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this topic to be
    really something that I think I would never understand.
    It seems too complicated and very broad for me. I am looking forward for
    your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!
