I haven't posted any car boot finds for a while so I thought I'd better make up for it & show you what I found this morning.
When I awoke I was surprised & bewildered to see that above us was blue stuff...whatever could that be? Why! It was a blue sky!! ;-)
So Mr Cottage & I set off nice & early & this is what we found....
Lovely vintage books, a gorgeous pink pressed glass vase & a knitted tea cosy....
(Notice Toby peering around the corner?)
Gardening & Enid Blyton books.....
A Terry's chocolate box & a sweet puppy picture.....
An unused hand mirror & brush, a printed cot sheet, a comical tea towel & in the corner you can see a crocheted granny square scarf (never used).....
A collection of vintage baby congratulations cards from 1937 & a set of unused coffee wrappers which would look fabulous in a frame.
There was also a boxed set of assorted kitchen knives, a baby gown & a couple of vintage wooden coathangers - one from an hotel & one from Harrods - which I seem to have missed out on the photos!
So, all in all, pretty good pickings!
I love the things you found, especially the baby cards. You did really well! We got a lot today as well, will do a post later :)

What a fabulous treasure trove of finds! I love the baby cards. Katie xx
ReplyDeleteThose baby cards are really fantastic! Not long ago I was looking through my mum's baby book and she had such a similar card (although she was born later, during the War.) I used to study the card in detail when I was a child...
ReplyDeleteDidn't you do well!!!
ReplyDeleteYes, the baby cards are fabulous!
;-)
Oh my didn't you do well!!!!

Wow, you did well, I love the baby cards and the puppy picture. I spotted your cheeky looking dog peeping around the door on the tea cosy picture.

I had a great boot today too! The weather was perfect and the boot was a good one too! And now I get to pour over what over people got over a cuppa - You got a great haul - we have such similar tastes - I actually think I got a pillow case today in the same design as your cot sheet!

Excellent finds! I've got a tea cosy very similar to that, it just has a pompom on the top though. :-)
ReplyDeleteWell done, great haul. Wasn't it fab to finally wake up and see blue skies on car booting day?!

Hi, Great 'trove'! Haven't been able to go booting for a few weeks and really miss the thrill of the chase (or hunt) if you see what I mean.
ReplyDeleteLesley X
Fantastic finds indeed love it all, I am off to a car boot in the morning rain permitting, so fingers crossed.

WOW! Rich pickings indeed. I don't know what I like best the cards or the framed puppy picture.
ReplyDeleteThat boot sale must have given you a great buzz!
Oh I just adore that puppy picture what a fab find.
ReplyDeleteThose Enid Blyton books are hard to resist aren't they? I succumbed to one a few weeks ago.
