Hello my lovelies!
Sorry for my impromptu break from blogland, I haven't forgotten you all but had a couple of weeks feeling unblogworthy. I haven't been to the boot sales due to the crappy weather and the charity shops have had not a sausage worthy having. I also haven't had any time to do anything crafty so felt like I didn't have much to blog about. I also wouldnt want blogging to become a chore.
A week in the Isle of Wight has sorted me out though, we got back yesterday and the break was much needed. Not to mention that the charity shops on the Isle of Wight are blooming brilliant! Gone were the pretentious displays of arty farty new goods, there were just selves full of goodies piled up everywhere, ideal for the rummaging urge :o)
Due to lack of space in the car I was unable to bring back all the stuff I would have loved to rehome (not to mention the fact I am on a declutter mission which has halted my buying prowess). I did however manage to sneak two items in:
Vintage leather Gladstone style doctors bag - £3
Pretty silver plated teaspoons x 6 - £1.99.
Well a short post from me, I will hopefully try and get back into posting at least once a week. I will also of course be doing the rounds to catch up with you all.
Big Love

Great bag and spoons ,good to have you back ,could you make your script a bit bigger please ..love Jan xx
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you are back. I enjoy your sense of humor. The spoons are gorgeous but what will you do with a doctor bag?
ReplyDeleteAnother place to add to my growing must see list for the UK. The spoons are so feminine I love them. Blogging should never feel like a chore, plus you last post left me laughing for days!
ReplyDeleteWelcome back lovely - the Isle of Wight is a classic family holiday, hope you didn't get rained on too much! We went when Boy1 was about 18 months, and I have many fond memories from when I was little. The bag is a great score. Not much in the charity shops here either, although I have been on a crafting mission while you've been away. I have a new link party on Tuesdays called 'Ta-dah! Tuesday' which should be right up your street when you're more inspired

Welcome back dear Scarlett - I LOVE the Isle of Wight so much, although its years since I went. When I was little we went over one time on the hovvercraft and it was so exciting - whatever happened to hovvercraft? Love that docs bag so much! xxx
ReplyDeleteWelcome back! Those tea spoons are amazing! XO.
ReplyDeleteThe IOW is quaint but lovely. Glad you found some new charity shop haunts.

Welcome back to blogland.

Glad you had a good break and are back to blogging! Good choices and shame you could not find some more space for the other goodies you saw - thats the only thing about holidays isn't it!!

ReplyDeleteWelcome home scarlett! Nothing beats a good rummagable charity shop does it, especially on your hols x
ReplyDeleteGreat to have you back! Never been to the Isle of Wight, glad to hear the chazzin' was good, love the bag and the pretty spoons! xx
ReplyDeleteHooray for the return of our Scarlett woman. I've missed your tales and treasures.
ReplyDeleteLove that bag, I'd take it everywhere and pretend to be important.
Dainty spoons there, I can imagine a very delicate hand (ie not mine) using them.
Blog when YOU want to, we will never be far away.

ReplyDeleteps - hurrah you're back, do go away for so long next time!! xxx
ReplyDeleteGorgeous items lovely, we all need a break sometimes so we can come back bigger, better and more focused. xx
ReplyDeleteGlad you're back - I've missed you and your funny stories.
ReplyDeleteHulloooo! Those teaspoons look lovely enough to eat. They'd taste of berries...
ReplyDeleteScarlett you have been missed but I'm so glad to see you back. I've been going through some family things and haven't been blogging much but hope to get back to some junking posts soon! Hugs, Linda
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you're back and had a glorious rummage on the island:). It's reassuring to know that there are original style chazzas out there still. Don't apologize for not blogging, now you're feeling fresh you'll feel better having something you want to share. xxx
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you back! I love the doctor style bag!! xxx
ReplyDeleteWelcome back to blogland! Love the case and spoons.
ReplyDeleteWelcome back! Bloggy is groggy this morning so will be brief - love your finds!

Glad to have you back....
ReplyDeleteWelcome back, I've missed you!
ReplyDeleteLove the leather briefcase, what a fab find. x
Yay for holidays, love the spoons! :)
ReplyDeleteNow I want to go the Isle of White!
ReplyDeleteI went on holiday to Devon once and I found this amazing vintage shop, not charity but still soooo cheap, tons of stuff from house clearances. I'm still tempted to go back but have to tell myself that one good shop is no basis to build a whole holiday around. I can imagine I'd get there and it would be gone... Searched for it online to no avail.

Welcome back! :) I like your charity shop finds..the spoons are so pretty!
