Vintage bits

Warning: image overload.

I acquired a few new old vintage pieces lately.

I bought this old chemical bottle from a little store called Rust and Co.

I printed out and attached a vintage label to make it look a little more interesting.

This cute Australian silver plated milk jug was too cute to leave at the tip shop at a mere $3.50.

I know, how could I not bring it home? I like its simplicity and it makes a nice vessel for some pretty iceberg roses.

I think my birdies approve.

My last acquisition was given to me by Mum and Dad. It's a great little old camera, owned and presumably used by one of my relatives many years ago.

I love the detailing.

So, some nice bits to add to the collection.
By the way, thank you for your comments about the market. I will be giving more details soon. I have so much to do!
Keep warm xx

Tip Shop treasure!

Look what Lyndon scored for me at the Tip Shop yesterday!

It's a 1950's Singer sewing machine!

It's the electric version and apparently doesn't work. That's ok, it's great to look at.

My tiny collection of vintage thread spools - I love these.

No base either. I did see one on the internet yesterday that had a green bakelite base, that would have been cool, but oh well.

Vintage pantyhose thread and needles that I adopted from my great Auntie Ila.

Can you guess what we paid for this beauty??

I bet you won't guess correctly - it was too much of a bargain!

Would you believe $5????!!! What a bargain!

Now where to display it?

Have a great week.

ps feeling a lot better now thanks. Just snuffly and coughs now :)
