Car Booty

The car boot sale was absolutley heaving with both buyers and sellers this morning. My mum and sister were among the sellers and they made nearly £100 between them so they are very happy.

These are my favourite buys from today.

Red rose jug 50p.


Old metal colander to use as a planter 50p.




New summer bag 50p and a sparkly brooch £1.00.




Another bag, can't resist those polka dots 50p.





These 2 itmes for bought by T for me. Can't tell you how happy that made me.


I've already had a cuppa out of this mug since being home.



This plate is going to go on our dining room table to be used for fruit. T bought it for 20p, he's a bargain hunter already!

    That was a successful day alright,both for the sellers and for you as a buyer! I love your idea of using the colander for plants.The car boot's round here have been short on vintage stuff lately..it's mostly clothes and toys..and the usual 'tat'! :0)

    Wow, your mum and sister did well. How thoughtful of T to treat you, and what an eye for a bargain he has, that plate is gorgeous.
