Car Boot Fair Treasure!
Hello everyone!
I went to my first car boot fair of the season on Sunday. Which is a bit naughty, as I’m trying really hard to scale down on stuff! However, my reasoning is this – I always need new props for my prop cupboard. Books, china, anything vintage and quirky. They only have to be little things, things that bring a touch of magic to a photo. And these were the little treasures I found.
Roll of vintage wallpaper – the lady was going this away for free! It’s not a full roll, so I’m tempted to cover a canvas or something similar with it.
Little dog-eared Flower Fairy Book
Glass bauble
Cute floral playing cards
Vintage biscuit tin
Blue transferware plate. I always buy these at 50p a pop. Not only are they beautiful, but they make any food you serve up look instantly more delicious.
I also bought some other things that deserve their own post, so bear with me on that!
My attic makeover for Revamp, Restyle, Reveal is very nearly finished! The reveal day is next Tuesday 2nd April, and there will be a blog hop so you can see all the bloggers finished rooms. So I do hope you will pop back to see my attic retreat!
I hope you have a wonderful day.

LOVE ALL YOUR TREASRURES, TAMSYN! I STUMBLED ACROSS THE FLOWER FAIRIES A FEW YEARS AGO AT OUR DOLLAR STORE (WHAT A HEAVENLY PLACE…EVERYTHING IN IT IS ONLY A DOLLAR!)…..ANYWAY, I SAW GIFT WRAP WITH 2 DIFFERENT DESIGNS OF FLOWER FAIRIES!!! SINCE THEN, I’VE FOUND ADDRESS BOOKS & CHILDREN’S BOOKS WITH THESE DELIGHTFUL IMPS! THE ARTIST WAS ENGLISH, I BELIEVE. I ALSO LOVE THE SCRAP OF WALLPAPER AND THE PRETTY TIN. YOU DID VERY WELL! THANKS FOR SHARING!
Hello Barbara! Ah thank you so much for your kind words, Flower Fairies are so pretty aren’t they, I’ve loved them since I was a child! The Dollar stores sound amazing, we have charity shops here in the UK which can be good for thrifting! Tamsyn x
