I'm thinking of Christmas already.... a reason to style and decorate, this years theme could be colour and folk Boho, 
it's what has captured my interest so far? 
Here's the wish list, a work in progress, I love a research task!

From the Lark shop!

From the ebay shop of Retro Pottery

Flatware from Anthropologie.

Paper flower garlands from Emerald and Ella.

Monte Carlo tree from Venucci

Lastly I'm going to scour the local thrift haunts for some nice retro plates, to add to the day!

What are your Christmas plans?

:: Thrift finds, comes up Apples!

Tassie Blackwood Apple, Arabia Finland Jam Pot, English Egg cup.

Biltons side plate, Staf UK.

Midwinter Moon plate, UK.

Ridgway Roselands, lidded dish,  UK.

Amber glass apple dish.

These are my recent finds, all from the Frankston area, in op shops, thrift shops and side of the road garage sales...but the winner is the Arabia Finland Jam Pot, $1.00.

Amazing!!!!

I'm not always this lucky but the thrift gods were on my side.

What's been your best find recently?

Sailing.....

I saw the great work of Ann Wood and I was so inspired to create my own boat, for the small ones bedroom. 
It was so much fun, I think, I will have to do some more.......
