Foraging on a Sunday

A trip out on Sunday with the other half

Hat Todmorden secondhand market £2

saw us over at Cheadle, Cheshire

Charity shop bag £3

looking for Barnado's Vintage shop, 76 High Street, Cheadle

Now which boots shall I wear today

 What a little emporium it is

 and well worth the journey

 I picked up this super leather bag from the 50's for £7

and you can't beat proper cotton handkerchieves

especially at £1.99 for the box

We have been looking for some armchair covers for ages 

and these just fit the bill.  I need another two now, hope I 

can find some for the same price £1.99

IT'S A WRAP .....

I got this jersey wrap dress in a charity shop in the summer for £3.

It's to cold at the moment to wear by itself so I've donned 

a t-shirt underneath, or you could use a thin polo neck jumper

Next I've thrown a jumper on top and added a 

knitted cowl. You could use a scarf.

Bring the ties from around the back to front and tuck 

your jumper in to give it a quirky look

Neck bow from Bodkin creates over on Instagram

then add a pair of thick tights 

and finally a pair of boots and off you go.

A winter outfit from a summer frock.

What a flasher ......

 

They are all talking about that woman in Whitworth 

who keeps showing her petticoat everywhere she goes

What a brazen hussy she is

Well  I might be 

but at least I'm not flashing my knickers like some 

people. No names mentioned.

Its not really my knicker drawer. 

You didn't think I was going to

show you that did you

Hope you have a smiley day and if you need 

a bit more cheering up have a look over at 

Annie's place

Practising a bit of HYGGE

 I think we all get this feeling sometimes

 

Not because we are unsociable

But just because we enjoy our own company

and our own surroundings

I know I do, do you ?

I think the Danish call it HYGGE 

(pronounced huu-gee)

What's on your desk this week

I'm joining the work desk party late today.

The Linen Garden on Instagram 

There's nothing to see on my desk, but I have got this piece of  floral 

vintage linen and this piece of tweed that I am going to design into 

a skirt and get my ever so clever friend Val to make up for me.

Mandy Pattullo on Instagram 

I am going to have a go at making a fabric or paper book out of 

an old leather wallet like this one I spotted on Instagram

www.oandystudio.com or Instagram (California based)

And I love this but will never be able to make it 

as its crotcheted.  I thought the ladies who have

a talent for the craft might like it.

Hope you have a good desk hopping day over at Julia's place

which next week celebrates 400 desk hopping weeks
