To now kind of RAIN non stop...
(spare a thought for Queenslanders in their time of need right now with the horrible floods engulfing large parts of their state)...
I ventured down the "highway" today to one of my favourite haunts..
AND IT was just pouring down all the way..
I actually HATE driving too far any more, BUT in the rain...pouring down...I was in TOTAL CONCENTRATION mode as visibility was almost NON existant!!~~~
Anyway , I did arrive safe & sound and found some lovely vintage goodies...
From vintage tins featuring roses,kittens and a delightful minuette "ballet" couple...
A gorgeous shabby PINK 'STREVENS" french lady BIG print...
A delightful blue/white french chic crochet tablecloth...( which I have cut up into individual centres to sell on ebay)..
metres upon metres of delightful (on original cards...Spanish)...tassle edgings..
RICH PINK & GREEN....
(plus a wonderful big suitcase & another crochet cloth which i shall be dyeing)...
So it was worth driving in the RAIN...!!~~
I was very happy that the rain had stopped whilst driving the 60 kms back home!!
I hope WE ALL have good vintage finds this week~~~~~~~
Happy Vintage shopping...~~!@@

Hi Andrea, I love all your finds, especially the painting of the french lady. Yes, the weather is the same here too.. it has been raining for 4 days now. We seem to be having more rain than sunshine and soon summer will be over. I feel so sorry for the people hit in Qld with those horrendous floods! Will have to go do some treasure hunting soon too.. take care, Maryann
OMG Andrea those tassles are just gorgeous - Who gets rid of this stuff??????
