last week at the op shop...





on my one day off in three months, when i should have been unpacking and moving - i went op shopping! and it was fabulous!!

vintage sheets, placemats, paintings of flowers and a wonderfully quirky teapot that i plan to use as a vase. it was a great day :)

it's funny how op shopping makes everything better...

  2. I love op shopping and love these picks of your finds... I nabbed a rainbow tie-dyed T for the toddler for $1 at our local op yesterday, fun!

  3. Hehe, unpacking can be overrated! We just moved too, and it's the longest I've ever really taken to get settled and decorated. But I think shopping for the new place absolutely ignites our decorating creativity. Looks like it was totally productive for you too!

    And thanks for the congrats!

  4. That placemat reminds me of a set my grandmother used to have in her house. I went fleamarket shopping over the weekend and it made me feel so much better too!
