Saturday Thrifting

Thank you  all for the kind thoughts at the loss of my Dad, it was much appreciated.

Yesterday was a big shopping day and I managed to fit in a couple of thrift shops to explore

 

A new Savers opened in the city and I found this 1930's mirror with piecrust bevelled edge for $7.

 I'm going to try and find a couple more in different shapes and put them on my bathroom wall

 

It's been ages since I visited the op shops in the  little country town of Lobethal (which has the largest display of Christmas lights in the Southern Hemisphere) In the CFS Shop I picked up a and some Christmas decorations for 50c

 

 

 

 

 

And in Hosanna's  a pretty tablecloth and an adorable and really ancient faded paper flower wreath..I have 4 now so I guess that makes a collection

 

 

We bought a massive load of fairy lights to cover the eaves and trees in the garden and they should be all up by tonight

This tree is going to have a net of twinkling  fairy lights on it

 

 

 

We dropped off our 2 roosters to the new owner yesterday (sob) and our 4 girls spent their first night together without them. We have found it's a lot harder to be impartial when you hatch your own . It's like giving your children away

 

 

The veg garden is fantastic but we have had to net it all as we have so many parrots.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Slowly the Christmas decorations are going up in the house

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It's been 3 years since we could put up our pretty Christmas tree and decorate it as my naughty Russian Blue ,Sascha, runs up the trunk and I'm still contemplating giving it another go!!!
