sometimes you just have to go to a shopping center and Buy what you want. I hate that, I love finding just what I want / need at Op Shops, or Sunday markets, or Garage Sales.
However, I really wanted a small green or aqua teapot, so I got this cutie from House.
Then, I have moved an old computer/printer table out of the tiny study into a corner of the dining room, all it needed was a couple of baskets or boxes on the bottom shelf to keep crafty stuff in. Although I went looking for cane baskets, these fabric ones were too cute to leave behind in Target, especially as cane does tend to catch and snag yarn, and these had green and aqua spots [my two new favourite colours for the black and white kitchen].
I am now spending a lazy Sunday afternoon re-arranging some of my 'treasures'.
How's your Sunday?
Hi Lyndel, I really like your baskets, they are so cheery. I hope you have enjoyed a lovely afternoon with a few pots of tea. Tam x
ReplyDeletePerfect. It's not often you find exactly what you require at those shops.
ReplyDeleteHope your organising was successful too.
never mind that you had to buy new this time, its a very cute little teapot!
ReplyDeleteIt is nice to have new stuff now and then. Love your polka dot boxes! (and the teapot). Looking forward to coming over for a cuppa!
ReplyDeleteI feel exactly like you....always expect to find what I want second hand and feel odd sometimes when I purchase new!
ReplyDeleteLyndel, I just left a comment in reply to yours on the opshop blog, but decided to post one here as well just in case you don't see one or the other. I'm free on Tuesday, how about I drive to your place around lunchtime, leave my car there and we can go in your car to meet up with Dian. (or I can drive if you don't know your way around Oakleigh and Clayton)
ReplyDeletesounds perfect!
