Things we found at the Estate

Lots of fun old hats...the lady had been a very good sewer and made all her own clothes and decorated and made her hats.

I always love lady head vases and they are getting much harder to find these days.

I always love old tins. This one is just so cute..

Lots of lovely old bits and pieces from an old home Kristen came across yesterday. We also got some other items which I will show you soon. Sorry for the light posts this last week have been super busy with the kids ...so I have lots of catching up to do with the shops etc and also with all the wonderful blogs I love to visit. Really there is just not enough time in a day is there??

The things people say.....

Sons friend " Katherine.....what's with the horse head in the car???"

Husband to wife " Honey...when you get a chance can you just check out that mower????"

Husband to wife 20 minutes later. 'Oh.....and honey can you just check out those bikes ? .....that's sort of your thing.' ( I mean please when did fixing old bikes and mowers become someone's thing..lol)

"Mum can I have a lift?" ...."Yes ..but first can you just put those dummies under the house?"

Alas every day there is something that comes out of someone's mouth in our house that if you stop and think you'd say..."did I just say or hear that ?" thank goodness we have lovely neighbours other wise they may just wonder...."What's going on next door?"

New Cabinet for my little treasures and its raining lemons....

I purchased this darling little cabinet recently to house my little bits and bobs and finally took it to the Cottage Garden Nursery at East Brisbane on Monday. I can now stock some of my favorite little items such as brooches, toy cars and vintage buckles.
Art Deco dinner gong.







I also wanted to show you a recent snap of the coffee shop at the Woolloongabba Antique Centre. No its not raining lemons....but don't they look fab!! It is such a fun place and new displays are always coming and going to keep us all entertained and inspired. Hope you are all having a lovely day.Email boathome@bigpond.net.au
