just a few treasures this week. i did manage to pop into a couple of op shops on my way to the airport while i was in melbourne and picked up four of those gorgeous johnson mugs for 50c each!!! vintage sheets are becoming harder and harder to find but it was nice to find a few rad towels and another winter blanket for the stash :)

have a happy thursday!
