Thrift Finds and Spring Gardening Saturday

 
 
 
 A gorgeous first day of spring and perfect for lots of charity shop fossicking
 
I found a set of four beautiful duck~egg blue dishes for $5
 
 
 
 
 
 
A delicious frothy 1960's pink chiffon hat from an  Adelaide Fashion shop for $2...just needs a hat block to sit on
 
 
 
 
A bit of pottering in the garden on the first day of Spring

    Love that duck-egg blue, and the hat reminds me of Her Maj's hats - very regal (and gorgeous shade of pink). Great finds!

    Hi Meg,
    I saw the comment you left for me about my book bundles on Knick of Time and wanted to let you know I do ship worldwide. Just let me know which bundles you are interested in and I'll add Australia to the listings.

    And I love that lovely vintage hat you found - what a bargain!!!

    Blessings,
    ~Angie

    Howdy! This is kind of off topic but I need some help
    from an established blog. Is it hard to set up your own
    blog? I'm not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty quick. I'm thinking about making
    my own but I'm not sure where to begin. Do you have any tips or suggestions? Many thanks
