a relaxing one here with a walk at the beach, brunch at one of the cafes around the corner & a saturday afternoon movie, all within a few minutes of our place.
i missed the garage sale trail on saturday. but did manage to catch the ending of one and bought myself a lovely old checked blanket, just like i had on my bed when i was a kid.
were you out on the trail? any good finds?
..some random things i've been doing over the past week or 2.
loving camelias & these little bottles
some plain & dull bedside tables i gave new life to with white paint and glass crystal knobs. wishing i'd taken the before photos. sold on ebay.

so proud but a bit cautious of her catch of the day

love those knobs wish I could find some up here!
ReplyDeleteYou know what I love about that blanket. Pure wool and no chemicals like they use today. My mum wanted to throw a whole lot of these out and I wouldn't let her the quality of these things are fabulous and they are also usually Australian made.
ReplyDeleteI went to a large garage sale in a school where there were hundreds of stands. Enjoyed it very much.
Have a great week

Nice blanket and wonderful side tables you found on ebay. I always love to see a photo of Bella. I caught up on blogging this weekend(finally) and cruised around with my grandchildren.
ReplyDeleteThe simple things are the best things. Love the kitty! Such a sweet pic.
