Laura Ashley is following me....

What a scorcher today!  The boot sale was packed out with sellers and buyers - pointy elbows and steel toe capped boots were needed.  I managed to find myself a random mix of bits today so here they are:

A little weathered bird cage - £1, now do I leave it with its character or do I spray it up?

Vintage lace top - £1

Hoorah! Nautical plaques for the little man's room - £1.50 for the pair.

M&S Vintage style skirt, brand new with a £39.50 label on, I got it for £2 :o)

Little vintage oval dish - now living in my bathroom as a soap dish (sorry for the lonely soap, it does have friends honestly). Paid a whole 10p for this one :o)

Glass decanter - going to also be homed in the bathroom with bubble bath in - another 10p treasure.

1950s table cloth and 6 napkins - £1.50.

Random vintage silver metal pheasant - was 10p too so couldn't leave him behind, although the little bugger has scratched my newly painted table in the picture!  I've looked him up online as some people have said these are used as vintage menu holders due to the split in the tail - quite a big menu holder is you ask me.

Retro tiki tropical tin container - 10p :o)

Laura Ashley Cardi -£1

Laura Ashley floral jacket - £1. Not for me though, going to have a punt with this one on la bay.

I then spied these floral curtains underneath a stall:

 Being a complete Fabric hoarder I asked how much she wanted for them. She said £1 as she didn't want to take them home. Bargain I thought so bought them, when I got home I checked the label:

Yes that sneaky Laura Ashley at it again!  Also means these bad boys are expensive curtains, either I make something really nice with them or I put them on eBay as seen Laura Ashley curtains romp home on there.  Either way what a steal!

A pirate party pack for Finley's first birthday - £1.50 for the whole pack which includes bunting, table cloth, napkins and place mats :o) I might nab one of the place mats though to decoupage onto his table in the nursery.

The Queen mum tea towel - bought for my aunt who is a fan of the royals - 20p.  I was then also talked into buying the other lonely tea towel home:

Norfolk Broad  - never been and live no where near. Yes I know its a bit grim but anyone near there that whats to rehome it?  Or nudge nudge Kylie...

Now its time for this weeks installment of:

Witnessed at a Boot Sale:

Buyer: How much for the Primark dress?

Seller: Is it the new one with the tag on?

Buyer: yeah how much?

Seller: £10, I've never worn it.

Buyer £10?

Seller: Yeah I'd rather take it home for less. (I really want to know what Primark she shops in eek!).

Given that it was so warm today, one seller on the top level of the boot sale was wearing a full on duffel coat and scarf!

I also stood next to a really old lady who was haggling with a stall holder over a fake Ed Hardy baseball cap, she finally got it for £1 and then put it on and wore that blinging studded skull print cap over her freshly permed hair round the whole sale.  I couldn't stop chuckling every time I walked past her on the boot sale trail.

I also laughed hard at the person caught rummaging through another buyers shopping bag thinking it was part of the stalls goodies - nice try matie!

Thats all Folks (she says still hiding the charity shop bag).
