:: Two blog friends go thrifting, to see what they could find!

Hornsea

 Last Saturday, Donna from Hung Up On Retro and I met up, at our favourite seconds dealer, to begin our Big Thrift Day Out!

 Donna was the first blogger to comment on my early posts and over the last 6 months we have enjoyed sharing and getting to know each other.

Saturday was our first adventure together (bit of an internet blind date)and here are the pic's of my retro finds.

(highly recommend a visit)

Today Donna and I are linking in..... so when your finished having a look-see please do pop over to 
Hung Up On Retro to see what Donna found that day!

When I began my blogging activities, I didn't guess I would firstly meet you lovely people but that I would find a local retro lover! 

.......and I made a lovely new friend too,

Thanks Donna for a great day!

  1. Excellent, excellent finds!

    Thrifting is so addictive, isn't it? And going with a friend makes it all the more fun!

    Cute post. Would love to know how much you spent on the Hornsea ... I saw a three-piec cannister set at my local Salvos for $80! I thought that was a bit much for an Op Shop.

  3. Lovely finds...The Hornsea is beautiful, and I have a soft spot for West German pottery. I didn't know you had an Enid Seeney Homemaker plate! I'm green with envy!
