I often have feelings of anxiousness and apprehension as to which way to turn first.
Maybe that woman will get to the tea towels before me.....or what If i skip books to get to the tea towels and then see someone walk past me with 20 little golden books....I'd cry on the inside...oh o.k................ I'd cry on the outside.
So I tend to do a quick skim and then come back to the hot spots for a closer look.
The lovely Beky from Pivx was the little gem that told me about this new place to shop for wonders of old. Well I'm sure it's been there forever but it was new for me. It's the diamond valley antiques and collectibles centre. We got lots of goodies there.
This superdooperly fantastic intercom system, and a vintage microscope still in it's box,
A great cane caddy for my bitses and some more souvenir tea towels for stools and the upcoming apron making for charity sessions...
some great kids books and these naff knitting patterns.
You can't really see the men's vest one, but it's titled masculine knits. Hehehehe...cause you know, if it didn't say masculine the big boys might feel a bit sissy wearing Nana's knitted vests. But now it's all o.kSo funny.
